Robert Stanton, 1948 Rosebank Road, stated that he has lived on Rosebank Road for 16 years and does not want the commercial site located so close to his property. He felt that the commercial block would be better located at the south end of the draft plan closer to the higher density. 4. Peter Landolt, representing the owners of the Pillersdorf lands, stated that he has no objections at this time to the proposed density of the draft plan and noted that the storm water detention lands in the draft plan block access to his client's lands.

An explanation of the application, as outlined in Information Report No. 24/93, was given by Mary Jarvis, Planner. '-' 2. The architect representing the applicant, stated that the lands are currently zoned commercial and he is proposing to rezone the easterly two-thirds of the property to permit the development of seven townhouse units in two blocks. The commercial block will be landscaped to reflect a gateway to the neighbourhood. One scheme for the townhouse development provides for the garages to be located at the rear of the buildings, however, he recognizes that this will create noise and a security problem for the residents that back on to this property. The scheme he prefers provides for the garages at the front of the property and one driveway will serve two garages. He is proposing the townhouses to be built in two block to lower the impact on the neighbourhood and the building materials will be in conformity with the existing neighbourhood.

Although the proposed road in the draft plan ends in a cul-de-sac at Altona Road, an emergency access could be installed. 3. Caroline Johnson, 295 Starview Court, stated that she was pleased that the staff support the road pattern. A noise barrier on these lands would not be attractive and would reflect noise across Altona Road towards her house. An emergency and pedestrian access must be investigated in this draft plan and she asked if the development to the north has a noise barrier. "-' '" ...... '-' ..."...
