OMB hearing required
on extension. bylaws
Because of objections by Goderich residents, the
package of le -zoning by-laws for the Suncoast Drive
extension will be forwarded to the Ontario Municipal
'Board fora hearing.
On April 13, council passed by-laws 32 and 33 which
designates parts of both sides of the uncompleted
Suncoast Drive extension as industrial land.
At its last regular meeting on August 4, Goderich
Planning Board considered an objection from Tom
Melady of 362 Huron Road, and a petition of 45 names
of people living on Bennett Street East, Dawnrose
Drive, Wahiut Street, and Delbar Court objecting to
. the industrial zoning: ,
Melady listed four objections to the by-law,
namely: inhere is nothing in the by-law to provide for
access from their property to Suncoast Drive should
their lots be divided, ii)enactment of the by-law
would deny owners of their property access to the
water and sewer services, which have been or are to
be installed on Suncoast Drive, iii )request an
easement to be provided for drainage of surface
water from their property to the storm sewers on
Suncoast Drive, and iv) request that by-laws restrict
height of buildings to 30 feet.
The petitioners listed their objections as i) passing
of the by-laws leads to a decline in value of residential
property in proximity to the land areas specified in
the by-laws, u) passing of the by-laws leads to visual
and audible nuisances to area residents, ill) the pre-
sent industrial park does not appear tote fully utiliz-
ed at this time.
Planning board secretary Ken Hunter told mem-
bers that many of the objections were unfounded, but
that it is "nearly impossible to get withdraws from all
those people." -
Deputy -reeve Bob Allen moved that the package be
forwarded to the OMB if objection withdraws could
not be obtained and the motion was passed
unanimously.
The by-laws list nearly the same permitted uses for
the undeveloped areas in gpestion on each side of the
drive's extension: a. light manufacturing, printing,
nublishine. packing: assembly, wholesaling, or
warehousing enterprise; a service industrial use.; a
laboratory or research facility; a public or private
utility such as a works yard, fire hall, or com-
munications facility which is of an industrial'
character or nature; a catering service or light
equipment rentals, a recreation facility such as a
health spa or fitness centre; a public park; a window
and plate glass establishment; a textile plant; a
contractor's establishment; a trademan's shop; a
furniture refinishing, woodworking, or upholstery
shop; a parking lot; an industrial mall.
Park at land -fill site
is feasible Hunter says
If the old, land -fill site, off Maitland Road opposite
the Domtar plant, is to be transformed into a
municipal park and home of the Optimist Club Music
Festival, the major problem is servicing the area
with hydro.
Commissioner ofeWorks, Ken Hunter, said the 10
acres of land between the railroad tracks and
Maitland River could be put into use by next summer
but the cost of hydro servicescould be costly. If conn-
ed was to agree to a proposal by the Optimist Club to
begin converting the dump site into a municipal park,
hydro would be a necessity for next summer.
The club has offered to contribute $2,000 this year
and $2,000 a year or 30' per cent of the net profit of the
festival, towards the development of the site. They
have also offered labour.
The 10 acre site is comprised of three levels and,
some work has been done in the area through NIP.
Hunter explained that crews have already done some
grading to stones and.the former dump site has been
covered with 20 feet of fill. There is a trail to the area
and some of it has been grassed.
Initial, plans called for the top level to be used for
parking, the second level would be used mainly as a
lookout point and the third level, 3 to 4 acres, would be
the main park area offering picnic facilities.
The third and main level is 30 feet above the river
level and is in no danger of being flooded. Hunter said
the area is just rocks and weeds now but could be
grassed without any difficulty. Servicing would be the
main stumbling block to preparing the area for a
festival next year. ' •
While the idea of expediting plans for the old dump.
site were raised at a public meeting Thursday, the
matter will be reviewed by the parks and waterfront
committees of council and cost estimates willbe
forwarded to council
The proposed park was planned to be used for
skiing and tobogganing.in the winter as well.
Harbor use concerns.
*from page 1
Of the high levels of noise • and dust normally
associated with the grain cleaning and . drying
process.
"For these reasons, country elevators are normally.
located in sparsely populated rural areas. Accor-
dingly, the proposed leaner and dryer should not be
allowed unless it is dearly shown these operations '
will be compatible with the surrounding urban en-
vironment."
Dzus has suggested that a joint meeting with
Goderich Elevator Ltd. and the Ministry of the
Environment should be held.
Snug Harbor
At the present time, the draft plan places a higher
priority on industrial development.
' In his letter to the board, Ken Dawson. states, "It
should be obvious to the board that there is a large
public force in favor of securing Snug Harbor as a
recreational, public facility."
Supporters of Snug Harbor object to the fact that
• • • • it
the draft plan gives weak suppport to the recreational
area and that eventually it may have to give way to
industrial expansion. They have requested that the
Official Plan be changed to protect Snug Harbor as a
public recreational facility by establishing a separate
land use designation, i,e., Community Facility.
In his report, Roman Dzus states that "it is im-
portant
to establish priorities in the harbor because of
the limited geographical land base."
At present, only a zoning amendment is required
under the present draft plan. A separate designation
for Snug Harbor would need both an amendment to
the Official Plan•and zoning by-law prior to a change
of use of Snug Harbor. This would mean a longer,
more thorough review and approval process if a
change of Snug Harbor's use was proposed:
Dzus said that either approach is workable from a
planning point of view, which means that the question
before Goderich Planning Board is one of priorities.
And those priorities will have to be decided once
and for all before Goderieh can have a new Official
Plan. • ,

grants
zone
application
Goderich planning board
approved a re -zoning ap-
plication by the Goderich
Christian Reformed Church
so that they can establish a
church in a empty building'
on the corner of the Suncoast
Drive extension and Huron
Road being purchased from
Ben Graham.
The existing official plan
zoned the land industrial, but
the church has received a
special zone to allow for it.
Senior Planner Roman
Dzus advised planning board
that the church's building
committee have a site plan
that conforms with
regulations, and that it
would not be detremental to
the area. On the other hand,
he said thatthe church would
be taking one acre of in-
dustria 1 la nd out of industrial
use.
Spokesman Fred Bruin-
sma said ' the building
committee was not con-
cerned about being located
in an industrial area since
the lot is on the edge, and
that the main use would be
on Sundays and industry is
usually shut down on that
day.
The zoning amendment
was carried unanimously by
the board.
