DELEGATIONS
1.
Wylie Freeman, Tocan Associates Limited, representing the Pickering Harbour
Company, gave an overview of the chronology of major events with respect to the
negotiated settlement between the Town and the Pickering Harbour Company
since July, 1990. He noted that there are two components to the Pickering
Harbour Company's position; improvements to the marina and the development of
the lands at the north end of Frenchman's Bay. He gave an overview of he
proposed development on the lands at the north end of Frenchman's Bay and noted
that about six acres of sensitive lands would be deeded to the Town.
2.
Eha Mai Naylor, Hough, Stansbury, Woodland Limited, representing the Pickering
Harbour Company, gave an overview of the proposed improvements to the marina
in both the short term and long term. She noted that the marina is in very poor
condition and capital improvements are needed. At present, there are about 950
slips in Frenchman's Bay and it is proposed that the number of slips controlled by
the Pickering Harbour Company would increase by 200 when the improvements
are implemented. The parking area and the landscaping at the marina would be
improved and a public trail put through the property, however, in the winter this
trail would be rerouted off-site. In the long term, she noted that the Pickering
Harbour Company hopes to acquire the Moore property in order to enlarge the
maintenance and storage area. Also in the long term, the Pickering Harbour
Company hopes to construct a fixed pier with their a;dministrative offices on that
pier, however, there is much reservation about this at this time.
