The following addressed Council with respect to the Liverpool Road South Study and/or the development applications submitted by the Pickering Harbour Co. and 794582 Ontario Ltd. (formerly G. & A. Hilts): - a. Jacqueline Smart, 829 Fairview Ave., stated that the information provided at last weeks meeting was incorrect and she advised that the two applications were submitted last August which then caused the Design Study to be initiated. Parts 1 and 2 of the Design Study must be considered at the same time, as one relies on the other. b. Sylvain Trepanier, 1218 Monica Cook Place, complimented David Steele on his presentation of last week. He stated that the comments and concerns of the residents do not appear in the report. Proper planning needs to occur, amendments need to be addressed prior to approval. --2-- -. c. David Steele, representing PACT, stated that the three areas needing to be considered are Economics and Tourism, Frenchman's Bay water and the harbour entrance. He questioned: the number of boat slips and where they would be located; what facilities will be available for boat maintenance; what is the cumulative impact. He stated that bay-fill should not be considered and Storm Water Management should be included in the agenda. The information provided in the application and the report is inadequate, it only deals with land use. He requested that Council defer consideration of these applications until the August 8th Council Meeting. 2. The following addressed Council with respect to Zoning By-law Amendment Application A 35199, 1038 Riverview Crescent: a. Gerald Stewart, 1020 Riverview Crescent, representing a number of area residents stated their objection to this application and advised of their concerns which include: the suitability of the location, the setting of a precedent, fire, noise, parking, increase in garbage, safety of children, influx of strangers and increased traffic. This application will significantly impact their quality oflife. He requested that this application be denied. -- b. Wayne Madden, 1038 Riverview Crescent, advised that the Health Department cannot comment on this establishment as it does not fall under their jurisdiction. He further advised that in an attempt to resolve some issues it appears that Planning staff and the resiQents do not want to deal with facts only emotions. He encouraged Council to read the summary of a study undertaken by Oshawa of 20 communities which allow Bed & Breakfasts. In reading the Pickering Official Plan there is nothing that discourages this type of business but encourages diversified areas. c. Terry Dupnak, 1038 Riverview Crescent, advised that all information available for Council's review was not given to them. She questioned how a decision can be made when all facts are not known.
