McCann Redimix need sewer capfdty for proposed apartment building
Lynda HIllmen-Rapley
Lakeshore Advance
13111 McCann of McCann Redi-Mix
wrote to council asking for capacity
in the l.s.unhton Shores sewage sys-
tem for that company's proposed
apartment building to be con-
structed at 47-49 Main Street east in
Grand Bend. Currently the property
at 47 Main Street east has a service
and the 49 Main Street property has
a stub at the raod but they will
require additional capacity for the
apartment building. "We plan to
submit the site plan and zoning
application by the end of May 2011,
said a letter from McCann to the
municipality. He says this building
will be geared for seniors over 55
and they anticipate a December
2011 start of construction.
In background, McCann
explained in late 2007 they began
construction on a three storey apart-
ment building ('1'owerview Apart-
ments) in the Municipality of South
Huron and the first tenants moved
in December 2008.
'Ihe proposed building for Grand
Bend is anticipated to be a similar
size. The Exeter building has 49
units with a common room and
large lobby area. All units have their
own laundry facilities and all appli-
ances are included. "We would be
looking for a capacity of approxi-
mately 45m3 in the sewage system
for the Grand Hend building," said
McCann.
'the problem, as council discussed
is that there is only 36112 capacity at
the Grand Bend lagoon. Councilors
Martin Underwood and John Rus-
sell asked how long the shelf life was
for the developments that currently
have capacity. Planner Patti Rich-
ardson said once they get their final
approvals- that's it- the capacity is
theirs and can't be taken away.
Mayor Hill Weber said McCann
have gone through this process
before in Exeter and Richardson
said the purpose of the letter was for,
this company to let council know\
their intentions. The issue she says,
if they get the go head- they will
need capacity.
