We would advise Committee that we had specifically requested notice of any action by the City on this particular matter (see the attached letter to Mr. Carroll) but were only advised by Planning staff late yesterday afternoon by telephone that the above referenced report was on the July 7, 2008 agenda. Our client has been working closely and cooperatively with Mattamy with respect to the grading and storm water requirements for the proposed development as they may affect the cemetery lands. Our client only recently received a revised set of drawings from Mattamy which they are reviewing. At this point in time there are some outstanding concerns with respect to the proposed grading of the Mattamy lands which will need to be resolved. In the spirit of cooperation MPGC would advise Committee that they will continue to work with Mattamy and the City in an effort to resolve concerns with respect to development on the boundary of their lands. MPGC will continue to participate as necessary in the planning approval process which has yet to unfold for the Mattamy lands to ensure that the cemetery interests are recognized and appropriately accommodated. On behalf of our client we would respectfully request that City staff be directed to involve our client as an abutting land owner to ensure that their concerns are being considered and that we be kept informed of any further actions on the part of the City in respect to the approvals related to development of the Mattamy lands.

On behalf of the cemetery I contacted Mr. McGregor of your office to inquire as to the status of this work and my call was returned the same day by Mr. Starr who advised that an application for these works has been received by the City and is under review. I was also advised that no permit had been issued and if a permit were to be issued it would appropriately be considered with the input of the abutting owner, in this case the cemetery owners. The purpose of this letter is to advise you that the cemetery owners continue to be interested in any development on the border of their property.

The transmission lines abutting this subdivision operate at 500,000, 230,000 or 115,000 volts. Section 186 — Proximity — of the Regulations for Construction Projects in the Occupational Health and Safety Act, require that no object be brought closer than 6 metres (20 feet) to an energized 500 kV conductor. The distance for 230 kV conductors is 4.5 metres (15 feet), and for 115 kV conductors it is 3 metres (10 feet). It is the proponent's responsibility to be aware, and to make all personnel on site aware, that all equipment and personnel must come no closer than the distance specified in the Act. They should also be aware that the conductors can raise and lower without warning, depending on the electrical demand placed on the line. We trust this is satisfactory.

We have reviewed the proposal to develop 235 single family dwellings and 80 townhouses on the subject property in an area that has a "Medium Density Residential" and "Mixed Corridors" designation in the Pickering Official Plan, and offer the following comments: The GTAA released its Draft Plan for the Pickering Airport Lands in November 2004. The Draft Plan proposed that the prohibition of sensitive land uses be defined by the 25 N.EF contour for the GTAA's proposed runway configuration. This is consistent with Transport Canada's recent revision to its guideline for "Land Use in the Vicinity of Airports" (Publication TP 1247E) to recognize the 25 NEF as the new standard for non -urban airports. The subject property is located outside of the 25 NEF Noise contotu for the proposed airport, 48 MAR -19-08 02:53PM FROM-GTAA Terminal Development 49 Mr. Ross Pyrn March 18, 2008 Page 2 416 7767609 T-025 P. 005/007 F-055 ATTACHOAENT#JL—TO INFOiNMATIONi1EP0RT#ice.- _ If the airport proceeds, further refinements to the runway configuration recommended in the Draft Plan may be necessary as new environmental and operational/engineering information becomes available, either through the environmental assessment process or during design of the facilities. Such refinements could potentially alter the location of the 25 NEF contour. However, it is ottr position that the location of the Mattamy (Brock Road) Limited property, on Part Lots 17 & 18, Concession 3 in the City of Pickering, would not be impacted by potential refinements to the proposed runway layout. The GTAA therefore has no objection to the future proposed development of 315 residential units on the site. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Kathryn Tracey -Leitch, Senior Land Use Planner, at 416-776-4012.

This review is to ensure that the licensed professional consultant archaeologist has met the terms and conditions of their archaeological licence, that archaeological sites have been identified and documented according to the 1993 technical guidelines set by the Ministry and that the archaeological fieldwork and report recommendations ensure the conservation, protection and preservation of the cultural heritage of Ontario. As the result of our review, this Ministry accepts the above titled report into the Provincial register of archaeological reports. The report indicates one archaeological site, Fairway (A1Gs-283), found on the subject property underwent Stage 4 mitigation involving detailed documentation and removal through excavation and it is recommended that it be considered sufficiently documented. This Ministry concurs with the recommendation that the provincial interest in the archaeological site identified as Fairway (A1Gs- 283) has been addressed. A previous letter from this Ministry, dated November 16, 2005, had recommended that there were no further concerns for alterations to archaeological sites for the subject property with the exception of the concurrence with the recommendation for Stage 4 mitigation of the Fairway (A1Gs-283) archaeological site. Given the above, this Ministry is satisfied that concerns for archaeological sites have been met for the area of this development project as depicted by the draft plan of subdivision prepared by Semas Associates, Project No, 04565, Drawing No. DP -1, dated December, 2007, signed by Michael A- Griffiths, O.L.S., dated December 5, 2007, comprising a total area of 19.09 hectares.
