The . nikrtter has been under discussion at ser -\crap meetings this year,, anti in June, the ad- ministration.. was asked to make a full investigation and determine where the service could be used. They returned a complete survey of the situation com- plete with maps showing the : territories in Goderich, Clinton W ingham, Seaforth and Exeter 'wihere students lived more than's a rode from the schools. 1 `arly in tlu' y eer, Goderich trustee Cavlev Hill attempted to ha \ e ur'han bus services Residents- fig continued from pa e 1 project, not on the economics. "I don't mean to criticise you but if I happen to find out about any property devaluation ,you may suffer,- it will not alter my final decision in the least,'' said Mr. Kelly, Mr Burns then criticized the• sewage facilities in the area slated for the apartment. He ,said he was,not stating that the present ' system was inadequate. He just pointed out that no one had proven to him .or the court that it .was adequate. He said he believed thea' was a good ,possibility 'that the system was below the required • size. He explained that the geography of the property was. such that the sewer en'tranc'e would be. in- the low area directly'.beside his property and. wpuld have to carry the water up. a grade.to Albert Street and the trunk, ' h t • f*. "1 consider el'erse develop- ment of he area to lie poor policy considering the apart meats across the street from ale and the ones on Nelson Street,:; stated Mr. Burris, Building inspector Roy Breckenridge told Mr, . Burns and the court that; he had checked with the town foreman prior to granting the permit and . that the sewer's were en. tirely adequate to handle the additional 10 units proposed. He said that an eight , inch storm sewer had already .been, installed across the rear of the property. by Mr•. Br:ander and that the developer was willing to put in any additional sewers required,,to drain the property: The building inspector a'Iso pointed out to the hearing that the accesses to the apartment parking lot were planned t'o allow for the required planting strip and still provide room„fo,r,'._ the required 15 parking spaces needed, , He said . if the •1 driveways were altered drastically it' would only mean that cars 'would have to park facing. the rear of the property and that they would be shining their headlights on the neigh - ,t boring property at night, Mr. Burns had objected to the, 20 foot wide drive adjacent to his. property -'saying it was a danger to .his, children and would create noise that would be Undesirable, He 'told the hearing he would be willing to drop his objection if the. drive could be moved to another area and a row of trees or a fence constructed on the ' property line. - ` The developer has con- sidered a, row of trees to• the rear of the property to_protect the neighbors there but plans none for my side,” complained Mr. Burns. "I believe I' m the ono, that will suffer the most." Mr, Kelly asked if the drives had to be the full 20 feet in°vv-idth an.d,if there was need for three, He said that if,.,the one' bor- • dering Mr. Burns' property could be ,moved farther frbm the property line and possibly .reduced it may drastically reduce the danger to -children. He said if a site plan could be submitted to -him with' the alterations made in light of Mr. Burns' complaints, he would use the new plan in making his •final decision, decision will be made untjl . eve'ryone ' has had op. portunity to put has 'the hearing what they feel is necessary to consider in making the decision," said the chairman. "I wont ba.se my final decision On any one consideration but rather 'the' whole project and its effect." • 'EVERY,BODY If you have a•relative, friend or neighbor in a hospital, nurs- ing home, or other health care institution, then theres.some- thing you should know.
