1.
DELEGATIONS
Mr. John Lyon, representing the Glengrove Community
Association, addressed Council to support the
motion to repeal By-law 1279/81 and to state
his concerns about the plaza on the southwest
corner of Rosefield Road and Finch Avenue. Mr.
Lyon stated that he understood that the intent
of By-law 1279/81 was to legalize the 59 unit
townhouse development only. The zoning for the
plaza was approved in 1976 before the surrounding
townhouses were built and now because of the
high density, a great deal of traffic is generated
in the area making it dangerous for children.
Mr. Lyon stated that it was probably Council's
intent in 1976 that only a corner store be estab-
lished at this location, however, a fast food
outlet will be established here adding to the
problems of traffic, parking and garbage. Mr.
Lyon asked that Council consider rezoning this
property now to exclude a restaurant use.

2.
Mr. Richard Thom, 1723 Dunchurch Street, addressed Council and
submitted a petition dated July 6, 1981 from the residents of the
village of Dunbarton objecting to the draft plan of subdivision
by Runnymede Developments. Mr. Thom asked that Council reopen the
discussions on the subdivision. He was concerned about the access
of Street K onto Dunbarton Road adding traffic to the village and
detracting from the village atmosphere. The added traffic will
be a threat to the children who attend the two day care centres
in the village and the Dunbarton Community Plan states that develop-
ment should enhance the present village.
A representative of Dunbarton/Fairport United Church stated that
the church is already used to its capacity and since it is a commun-
ity building which will require more facilities because of Runny-
mede's proposed development, it is incumbent upon Council to make
provisions for this.
3.
4.
Mr. Bruce Schroeder, 1010 Finch Avenue, stated that he was concerned
about the planning process involved in Runnymede's subdivision.
Ten months have lapsed from the time the original plan of subdivi-
sion was circulated to this date and the first opportunity residents
had to comment on the commercial block was at last week's Planning
Committee Meeting. Since the Community Plans do not make reference
to a commercial site on the southwest corner of Dixie Road and
Finch Avenue, this issue should be discussed in more detail. Mr.
Schroeder stated that he first saw the environmental study for
the commercial block today and felt this should have been made
available sooner.
s.
Mr. Murray Chusid, Barrister and Solicitor, representing J.D.S.
Investments Limited, stated that he does not understand what support
there is for a commercial block in the draft plan of subdivision
of Runnymede Developments. He was concerned that there is no market
for a food store at this location. Mr. Chusid asked that the approv-
al of the commercial block be deferred for two weeks so that his
client can study the market and if Council is not prepared to grant
the deferral then Mr. Chusid is opposed to the commercial block
and in particular to proposed supermarket.
6.
Mr. L. Greenbaum, representing Runnymede Developments Limited,
stated that Dixie Road is to be realigned and a traffic signal
installed at the intersection of Dixie Road and Kingston Road.
The access of Dunbarton Road onto Kingston Road would be cut off
and Street K would be an access out of the village of Dunbarton.
Mr. Greenbaum stated that he has met with representatives of the
Dunbarton Fairport United Church several times and they have been
informed that when they know what land they require for church
expansion, they are to approach him. Mr. Greenbaum reiterated his
committment to sell land to the church at less than market value.
In response to previous comments, Mr. Greenbaum stated that he
would provide undertakings that no construction traffic will travel
on Dunbarton Road and the M.T.R.C.A. is generally satisfied with
this development subject to certain conditions which can be satis-
fied. Mr. Greenbaum pointed out that he is seeking an Official
Plan amendment to permit the commercial block and even when this
is approved, a rezoning would be required to permit the supermarket
Mr. Dennis Stevens of M.M. Dillon answered various environmental
questions on behalf of Runnymede Developments.

OTHER BUSINESS
Councillor Cahill introduced the following Notice
of Motion:
Moved by Councillor Cahill
Seconded by Councillor Byers
WHEREAS over the past number of years the public has express-
ed concern and objection over the use of off-road motorized
recreational vehicles on public and privately owned lands;
and
WHEREAS several reports have been written on this subject
with the conclusion that the major problem in urbanized
areas is primarily with vehicles such as motorcycles, mini-
bikes and trailbikes but also, to an ever increasing degree,
with snowmobiles, pedalbikes, all-terrain and modified
large-tired vehicles; and
WHEREAS many organizations in the Province have been estab-
lished to promote the safe and lawful usage of recreational
vehicles in defined areas and to meet the interests of
owners in terms of providing marked trails, competition
and an opportunity for persons with similar interests to
assemble; and
WHEREAS unfortunately these efforts have had a minimal
deterrent effect on the majority of vehicle owners and
certain problems connected with the ownership and use of
off-road motorized recreational vehicles still exist; namely:
1.
Damage to public and private property, namely,
grass, vegetation, soil compaction, fences and
structure;
2.
Disturbing the peace of residents due to the
high level of noise emission of vehicles;
3.
Pollution through exhaust fumes, gas and oil
spillage;
Safety hazards for people and primarily children
because of speed, inexperience and disregard
for reasonable precautions in relation to the
terrain of the area being travelled (e.g. hilly
and woody areas, playground areas);
4.
s.
Lack of parental control, in terms of the age
and capability of the driver in the areas where
the vehicles are being driven;
6.
The limited ability to enforce existing legis-
lation relating to off-road motorized recreational
vehicles by law enforcement officers; and
7.
The reluctance of the Provincial Government to
pass effective legislation to control the sale
and use of off-road motorized recreational vehicles;
and
13/81
- 59 -
WHEREAS it is the opinion of the Council of the Corporation
of the Town of Pickering that the most effective method
of controlling and minimizing the detrimental effects of
the off-road motorized recreational vehicles is to request
the Provincial Government, in the strongest possible terms,
to enact certain legislation;
