ZONING BY-LAW AMENDMENT APPLICATION A 15/03
SUNOCO INC.
1800 BROCK ROAD NORTH
BLOCK B. PLAN M-1024
1.
Mike Duff, Planner II, provided an explanation of the application, as outlined in
Information Report #19-03.
2.
Steve Lerner, Suncor Energy Products Inc., advised that the items to be added
would be those similar to what is sold in most service stations. He further
advised that new pumps are being installed that will provide the convenience of
paying at the pump rather than having to enter the store, this speed up the
process and alleviate some of the traffic problems.
3.
Paul Hill, Traffic Consultant, advised that a traffic study ahs been completed
which concludes that 85% of the traffic is due to Tim Horton's. Reorganization of
the site should help the traffic flow and lessen the traffic on Pickering Parkway.
4.
Preet Singh, 25 Rotherglen Road North, advised that this development will create
more traffic congestion on Brock Road which will inevitably cause more accidents
and back-up. Another convenience store is not required in the area and with the
build-up of businesses across the street all needs are addressed.
5.
Carolyn Oliver, 1655 Pickering Pkwy., Unit 514, advised that there is a solid
stream of traffic on Brock Road now and another convenience store is not
needed which will just increase the problem.
6.
Raymond Ada, 1655 Pickering Parkway, advised of his opposition to the
convenience store stating that the service station will loose business if the traffic
congestion gets any worse.
