"Goderich Signal Star" of

pollution.
August 17, 1972 appear two
articles' which concern planning
an zv`Cing:" ._
"The first article would seem
to revolve- around whether . or
not a parking lot should be
permitted on a residential area.
:i9s onnn ' icle 'states
that "tentative" approval .has
been givenby council to allow
the construction of a 16 unit
"apartment" building at the
corner'. of 8ennet't �atill Warren
Streets. The article further
describes this construction as to
be "constructed to resemble two
storey .houses joined together at.„
the sides" but the "design will"
be such' as to "detract from a
possible tenement look".
I am not familiar with the
zoning by-laws in Goderich
although I am'a property owner..
"It seems to me that. if *a
better than average residential
area isn't protected. by proper
zoning, that something should
be dine to assure that it is only
single family dwellings built in
the area and that there should
be a minimum siie lot per
dwelling.
"For people in that area who
have invested in "better than
average dwellings to have this
• type of "tenement" construction
plopped ,right in their midst
would be a serious blow... It
would only be a guess as t� how
• much this would . lower the re-
. sale value of their homes.
"I think that some protection
°. for these people in the form of
suitablezoning by-laws (if they
do not already exist) should be
. forthcoming and, Until. this is
done, issuing of building permits
should be carefully considered".
Respectfully yours,
Donald M. ,Jackson
"We are writing this letter to
request that the Council of the
Town of Goderich prohibit the
building of the proposed multi-
unit dwellings on the southwest
corner of Warren and Bennett
Streets.
"The Council will be
presented with a petition
Thursday, August 24, signed by
concerned residents of the town,
many of ,them being
eowners in e area in
question. Many others are
citizens interested in preventing
this thing happening in their
own so called A residential
area.
1.,"The following are some,. of the
reasons we ask the Council to
not permit the building to go
ahead as planned:
"(1) We pay high municipal
taxes for the privilege of living
in an area where -the building
lots are (or have been to date) a
of today does not prohibit" the
type of .construction planned by
James Hayman. He warned that
-any attempts to prevent
construction of Rayrna.n's
building would be "met by court
action and that I assure
"(3) 'Praf is congestion and
inadequate parking plan; NO
parking is
inadequate,
available for
visiting cars which means
parking on both Bennett and
Warren Streets.
"(4) We are terribly upset that
after investing a considerable
amount of money and .time into
. our home we are now going to
have to sit on our front, porch
and look at a parking lot, the
entrance of which will be
directly ,opposite our lane.
."(5) -Weare upset because: of ne
loss of real estate value of our
personal , property. and an
adjacent building lot.
"(6) At present there is
inadequate or no storm'sewers
in this area. Presently at every
bad rain storm, many basements
on Warren, Bennett Streets and
• Lakeside -Drive are flooded. The
proposed plan means 16 more
families hooked up to the
existing sewers.
"Could the planning of the.
town not be such that a
homeowner who desires to or
has: already built in an area
such' as ours be assured that he
°° will not be faced with the
possibility of multi -unit
dwellings and . theassociated
problems.
Respectfully,
Norma J. J:EFFERY
Harold J. Jeffery
The recommendation from
the Planning Board to Council
read thus: "In view of the fact
that the proposed new zoning
bylaw prohibits apartment and
row dwelling units in R1 and R2
zones, it would be ' the
recommendation of the
Planning ',Board that • the
proposed apartment building for
Bennett and Warren Street not
be permitted."
That motion was made by
Bert Such and seconded by Jim o
Skeoch at the• Planning Board
meeting 'of Tuesday, August 22:
