Anderson COUNCILLORS: Byers Cahill Coburn Fisher Robertson Stoner ALSO PRESENT: N. C. Marshall - Town Manager. B. Taylor - Town Clerk n} ADGFTIGN-GF-MINYTES Regular Meeting of June 1, 1981. Special Meeting of June 8, 1981 fII}--.---DEbEGATIGNS 1. Mr. Bill Morgan, 1475 Rougemount Drive, stated that the application for rezoning by Mr. & Mrs. F. Koebisch is dangerous and jeopardizes the residents rights. The application is being exped- ited because the Town wants to extend the walkway along Petticoat Creek. Mr. Morgan opposed the application for four reasons, namely it affects the quality of life of the area residents because it will lessen their tranquility and peace, it affects the safety of the residents because the corner on Rougemount Drive is already dangerous, it will mean the greenbelt along Petticoat Creek won't be protected and the proper process for rezoning is not being followed. Mr. Morgan further stated that Council is establishing a precedent by allowing a corner rounding in order for the newly created lots to have sufficient frontage to be in conformity with the "R4" Zone. The walkway from Petticoat Creek to Rougemount Drive is not yet finalized, four driveways will be packed into one corner rounding and by approving this application, the Town will be sacrificing the long term goals of the Woodlands Community Plan. 12/81 - 39 - 3. Miss Chris Cogan, 1473 Rougemount Drive, stated her opposition to the application for rezoning by Mr. and Mrs. F. Koebisch because the proposed corner rounding will add to the perilous driving conditions and cars will end up on her property if they skid on the road. The long and narrow laneway to Lot 3 is unattractive and the combin- ation of three driveways will be dusty. Mr. Gordon Jackson, 1477 Rougemount Drive, stated that if the application for rezoning by Mr. and Mrs. F. Koebisch is approved, it will establish a precedent for other people to rezone and divide their land and subsequently destroy the greenbelt. 2. 4. Mr. Austen Barnes, 373 Sheppard Avenue, stated that he supports the application for rezoning by Mr. & Mrs. F. Koebisch because the proposal is in keeping with the general pattern of the area. By approving this rezoning and extending the walkway, vandals and bike riders will be discouraged from trespassing on the residents' property. Mr. Barnes stated that the Petticoat Creek walkway should extend through his property for the benefit of future development. s. Mrs. Eleanor Barnes, 373 Sheppard Avenue, assured those present that she would never submit a proposal for high density development and the best use of her land would be high density development. The number of trespassers and vandals have increased and the best trustee of land is a responsible homeowner. She has fought for children's safety on Rougemount Drive and it was determined that a great deal of traffic on Rougemount Drive is caused by people taking a short cut from Altona Road to Kingston Road. 6. Mr. Keith Koebisch, 1465 Rougemount Drive, stated that since the greenbelt along Petticoat Creek was established 18 years ago, the M.T.R.C.A. has been restudying the boundaries of the greenbelt. By creating two new lots, Mr. F. Koebisch will have the money to upgrade his house and lessen the maintenace of his property. The development is in keeping with the existing neighbourhood, the lots are larger than other lots in the area, the future homes will be of a high standard and the Koebisch's are dedicating more than one acre to the Town to extend the walkway along Petticoat Creek. Mr. Koebisch pointed out that the Land Division Committee has already approved this development, the M.T.R.C.A. and Ministry of Natural Resources are recommending approval of the app- lication and the Social Planning Council now approves of the application. Mr. Koebisch stated he has three letters from Mr. Cogan regarding a proposal to develop the land by land assembly with Barnes, Cogan and himself where the lots would be smaller than those proposed by this development. Since the making of this proposal, Mr. Cogan is now opposed to this development. 12/81 - 40 - 'III)-~~--RES9bYTI9NS Reselutien-#37/81---See-Appe8dix-#1 Moved by Councillor Coburn Seconded by Councillor Byers That the Report of the Executive Committee dated June 8, 1981, be adopted.
