AUGUST 30, 1973 Scan are rn*nts Question subdividers The subdivision agreement for Suncoast Estates 58 -lot sub- division was under con- sideration when the Ad- ministrative Committee of Goderich Town Council met Tuesday, evening. Among those items discussed in some detail were the development of parkland within the subdivision:. the assurance for ,the Town that all .would be completed tothe satisfaction of municipal bylaws; -and the type of roads to be built within the sub- division. Present at the meeting was Bert Alexander of Suncast Estates who told the committee two parks- tied together b) a walkway was in the works for the subdivision. Alexander also questioned council's police of taking lots as collateral to ensure that proper servicing was completed within subdivisions. Although these lots are conveyed back to the subdivider when the con- ditions of the agreement have been fully met, Alexander said it was 'the usual practice for a municipality to accept a finan- cial guarantee so that work could be compteted if the sub- -divider failed for one reason or another. The Administrative -Commit- tee agreed to a $30,000 finan- cial.' guarantee providing it meets with council approval. The agreement with Sun - this is to ensure the,t streets turned over to the nie,nicipality are in good conditw n and do not represent major expen- diture3 in the i tnmediate future.

Not much laterinthe meeting,a letter was read from the building inspector asking for permission to give'9uil.ding permits for three new projects in Goderich - one being two groups of eight. condominium homes planned by Eric Kroh - mer for the corner of Gibbons Street and Suncoast Drive. The other two projects- were an- apartment building to be constructed by Suncoast Estates and a motel with dining and banquet 'facilities to' be built by- Don Sager Con- struction. - A letter from A,..1.

"Plans , will be ., d rawn, completed and subn .i»tted within the next two _or three weeks time. The motel is undo ?r con- sideration for Lot 12, P' tan C on the Bayfield Road south of Goderich. No •mer e details were immediately av ailable.. In a report to council, building inspec, ,or Roy Breckenridge wrote that.- all three properties for • the trio of projects are zoned development under the 1973 Z' )niv g Bylaw. "Under the l9513 Zoning Bylaw, all thre e- are •permit- ted," wrote F;reck4?nridge. "However al I req uirements such as set b ack, y and area, parking etc., will cc infortn to the 1973 byla' v. On'f:he advice of Town Soli, , itor, Mr. Murphy, the present law is the 1958 Zoning Bylr 3wT" When Councillor Elsa Haydon r noved - to have the matt er referred to the Planning Boa rd, Councillor Bill Clifford said that since the building in- spe ctor hia»d explained the pr'ijects wotald meet the re'.luirenents, he would suggest cc,uncil give permission for P,recke.nridge to issue the mending permits when ap- plication is made, for them. "I'm heartily in favor of this kind of development," said Clifford. "Let's get on with it." Deputy -reeve " Stan Profit noted that while he, too, was not against these specific projects or 'this type of develop- ment for Goderich, he would s.uggeat the matter go through the .,Planning'-Boa'rd procedure. "It is obvious the plans are to conform with the bylaw,", said Profit, "but these are not requests for permits today. I'd li`.ke to see the drawings at least. I'm not against sending the mtftter to Planning Board." - Councillor Haydon said she was certain the builders would prefer to go through the proper channels. "It has to go to Planning Board to be done properly," said Councillor Havdon. Councillor Leroy Harrison noted that Planning board mat- ters are often held up for what seems like unnecessarily long periods of time. He asked why the study on the Development zones in the municipality had not been received from Plan- ning Board. Councillor Haydon explained the D Zone study was to be completed by the County plan- ning department, a busy office. 'Deci4iion was finally reached to send notification. of the three proposed projects to the Planning Board which is expected. to meet again Septem- ber 11 at"7:15 p.m. in the council chambers. fl's timeyou saw the light - ours!!!

The matter was tabled until after a meeting with Burns Ross concerning the South Storni Sewer on Wednesday (yesterday) and the next coun- cil meeting. The "deplorable condition" of Bennett Street was also The legal firm of Shepherd, McKenzie, Plaxton, Little and Jenkins has requested copies of documents made public in con- nection with the shopping plaza dispute in , Goderich. The discussed with the Delbar prin. cipals and a suggestion from the subdividers that a 1,000 foot portion of Bennett immediately in front of the subdivision be reconstructed jointly by the Town Wand Delbar was received with some interest by the corn- mittee. The matter was referred to the Public Works Committee chaired by Reeve Deb Shewfelt, although it was quickly pointed out by Mayor Harry Worsell the 'reeve could absent himself from duty on that committee for that particular item because, "there are enough of us left to -do the business".

Councillor Bill Clifford asked whether council is duty bound to supply such -.infor- mation. Councillor Leroy Harrison said there. was no reason the information could not be supplied, but suggested the legal firm be required to pay for the cost involved in copying so much data. Councillor Elsa Haydon said council should send a copy of the meeting minutes to the lawyers along with a -copy of soon as any amendments are available, they too will be sent along. In Mrs. Haydon's opinion, the copy of the citizens' petition should be secured from the committee in charge. "I see no harm in that," agreed Deputy -reeve Stan Profit. "These are public statements. Mr. Plaxton is playing lawyer' again." Councillor Eileen Palmer felt that- since George Plaxton's brief on behalf of the businessmen -had been promised prior to the meeting on the $hopping plaza question and had not been received until the meeting was well in progress, the London solicitor should not be ilia hurry for this material, at least until the town's lawyer, Pim* Murphy, had time to consider the ad- visability of providing it. A motion by Reeve Deb Shewfelt that the matter be referred to* Murphy for his "consideration and recommen- dation" was approved by coun- cil.
