Mr. Stephen Diamond, representing Brama1ea Limited, stated that with respect to draft plan of subdivision 18T-81038(R), the resolution is only an amendment to the plan that was approved in 1983 and complies with the Official Plan. This draft plan provides for a 1.5 hectare park that was not in the original plan and it is desireable to have houses back onto the park for safety reasons. Bramalea will erect any type of fence requested by the Town. This draft plan complies with the Highbush Traffic Study, the Durham Board of Education has no objections to it and the Durham Separate School Board did not object to it originally. Also, the subject lands are removed from the Rouge Valley system. Julia Schembri, Whiteva1e, stated that although draft plan of subdivision 18T-81038(R) was approved in 1983, there has been much development since that time. - 3. Jim Garrett, representing Save the Rouge, stated that draft plan of subdivision 18T-81038(R) will affect the deer habitat in the hydro right-of-way and storm water may be piped into the Rouge River. The subject lands are of historic interest because natives hunted in the area and 50 years ago it was a private hunting preserve. 11 /91 64 (II) DELEGATIONS - continued 4. Katherine Murray, representing the Rougemount Drive Ratepayers Associ ati on, requested that draft p1 an of subdivision l8T-81038 be referred back to staff to address the concerns of the Ministry of Natural Resources and the Rouge Valley Park Advisory Conmittee. Although this plan was first approved in 1983, time have changed and there is more emphasis put on environmental concerns. The terms of reference for the Rouge Vall ey Park Advi sory Conmi ttee provi des for consultation on abutting lands and the MTRCA lands are part of the Conmittee's mandate. The subject lands are a candidate for Area of Natural and Scientific Interest (ANSI) status. 8 6. Glen Debaeremacher, representing the Rouge Valley Conmunity Association, stated that the lands subject to draft plan of subdivision l8T-81038 clearly abut the Rouge Va 11 ey system and are part of it. The fact that the land is privately held does not mean that it must be developed. The Council is in a position to protect the subject 1 ands even more so than the MTRCA or the Mi ni stry of the Envi ronment. He noted that most of the residents in this draft plan will work in Metro and travel on Twyn Rivers Drive to get to work but this road may be closed in the future. The subject 1 ands shou1 d be protected even though they are designated in the Official Plan as capable of urban development. Hugh Taylor, representing N. Kaoukakis and G. Papadopoulos, addressed Council with respect to the application for rezoning at the northeast corner of Finch Avenue and Brock Road to permit a medical centre.

A 1 ex Robertson, 893 Mod1 inRoad, s ta ted tha t he supports the Noti ce of Moti on that wi 11 provi de for the election of the Pickering Hydro-Electric Commissioners. The Commission spends forty million dollars annually but is not accountable to the public. He has asked the Commission various questions but they have avo; ded g; vi ng him any answers. Appointments to the Conmission in the past were good only because no problems were experienced, but now the Commission is subject to abuse and patronage. 8. Ra 1 ph Stei nbach, representi ng the Rosebank Road South Ratepayers Association, addressed Council with respect to the Notice of Motion regarding the Rick Hall Memorial Park. He stated that young children have no place to play except on the street and the Police have to1 d them to stay off the street.

She stated that she supports the Notice of Motion. St. Monica's Separate School is very overcrowded at present and if Council encourages the Separate School Board to seek another school site, they will be closer to getting a new school. Katherine Murray, representing the Friends of the Al tona Forest, stated that she supports the Notice of Motion regarding the separate school site in the Fox Hollow Col1111unity because the school site that is desi gnated in the Al tona Forest is in an environmentally sensitive area and that schools are a form of high intensity development. Glen Debaeremacker, representing the Rouge Valley Col1111unity Association, stated that he supports the Notice of Motion regarding the separate school site in the Fox Holl ow Conmuni ty and asked Counci 1 to support it. Anna Mari ani, 526 Charnwood Court, asked Counci 1 to support the Noti ce of Moti on regardi ng the separate school site in the Fox Hollow Conmunity because it wi 11 be close enough for many ch i 1 dren to walk to and an owner is willing to sell land to the Separate School Board. Glen Debaeremacker, representing the Save the Rouge Association, stated that he supports the Notice of Motion to delete the Lawrence/Bayly extension from the Official Plan. He stated that the City of Scarborough has passed a motion to request Metropolitan Toronto to delete this roadway from its Official Plan and the Rouge Vall ey Park Advi sory Commi ttee has reconmended that it be deleted. Katharine Murray, representing the Rougemount Drive Ratepayers Associ ati on, stated that she supports the Notice of Motion to delete the Lawrence/Bayly and Fi nch/Ross 1 and extensions from the Offi ci a 1 Pl an and noted that the City of Scarborough has deleted the Lawrence/Bayly extension from its Plan. Don Ki tchen, 1302 Wharf Street, stated that he supports the Noti ce of Moti on that wou1 d provi de for the election of the Pickering Hydro-Electric Col1111issioners. He stated that he was the first Chairman of the Col1111ission and that he has always favoured an elected Conmission because it would be more accountabl e and responsive to the publ ic and not be open to patronage. Most Conmissions are elected and it would create more interest in municipal affairs. Pam Spence, 705 Foster Court, stated that she supports the Notice of Motion to delete the Lawrence/Bayly extension from the Official Plan. She has sent much correspondence to the Provi nce, the Regi on, the Town and various other organizations to object to this road and she noted that the Rosebank Road South Ratepayers Association does not support this road. The Lawrence/Bayly extension would be inconsistent with the Crombie Report and the land needed for the road is environmentally sensitive. 11/91 66 (III) RESOLUTIONS Resolution #59/91 8 Moved by Councillor Van Kempen Seconded by Councillor Mitchell That Resolution #55/91 which was lost at the Council Meeting of June 3, 1991 to table Item #2 of the Report of the Executive Committee dated May 27,1991 regarding draft plan of subdivision l8T-81038(R) submitted by Bramalea Limited be reconsidered.
