Re: Proposed Amendment to the Zoning By-law
Pt. Lot 1, Concession 7 (Formerly Oro)
Township of Oro-Medonte
File Number: P-134/02
The NVCA has reviewed this application to permit a vehicle storage and
restoration compound and based on our mandate and policies under the
Coservation Authorities Act, we have no objection to its approval. The
NVCA does however suggest the following provision be included within the
text of any amendment.
. That a Stormwater Management/Drainage Plan be prepared by a
qualified professional to the satisfaction of the Township of Oro-
Medonte and the Notlawasaga Valley Conservation Authority.
The purpose of this Stormwater Management Plan is to address any water
quality and quantity issues related larger developments and to protect the
nearby Provincially Significant West Coulson Swamp. This plan should
also indicate measures for erosion and sedimentation control. Based upon
on-site discussions, the NVCA understands the site will be under
development control through the Planninq Act (e.g. Site Plan Control,
Holding zone).
Please note that our comments reflect the intent of Natural Heritage and
Natural Hazard policies of the Provincial Policy Statement.
Thank you and please forward a copy of your decision.
Sincerely,
~;-~

Re: The Rezoning of the Land
Concession 7 East Part of Lot # 1
Please find attached the letter from last fall for the meeting of October 24,
2005. I still oppose the application for the rezoning of the land. I
understand the area is now only parts of the original rezoning plan but still
oppose it, due to environment factor that the rezone land is on the lowest
part of the property in question and any accidental leaks or spills would end
up running towards the pond,

To Mayor Craig and the Members of Council
Re: Concession 7, East - Part of Lot 1
(Formerly in the Township ofOro)
We wish to oppose the application to re-zone the land from the AlRU and EP Zones to an
Agricultural/Rural Exception (AlRU*) Zone to permit a site specific use as storage,
restoration and sale of used military equipment and related parts.
We currently own the land a4iacent to this proposed rezoning and raise objections to this
new application as well as his current use of the property. We have taken great care and
expense over the 40;. years to try and protect our large, environmentally sensitive, natural
pond to protect what little wildlife we have left in this area. This is, and we would like it
to continue, to be a wildlife sanctuary. This pond is also the first in a line of ten others
which could potentially be affected by pollution seeping into the water table.
Because of the nature of his business the equipment is constantly being tested (not just
Jeeps) the resulting noise levels and frequency are proving to be a huge source of
irritation to ourselves and surrounding neighbors. If the business were expanded in this
way it could only lead to an increase of noise and disruption to the local population and
to the wildlife we try so hard to protect.
Weare also concerned about the disposal of the existing pollutants in the form of oil and
other hazardous waste protects in the existing business being so close to the underground
natural springs.
A large added con.cern would be the devaluation of properties in our surrounding area, if
what is already an eyesore, is permitted to expand.
Please notifY us of the decision to this proposed Zoning By-Law Amendment.
Yours truly,
~~
