She explained that the intent of the Official Plan policies was to prohibit additional "back lot" development and therefore the area was inappropriately designated. • Mr. Mills provided additional information on behalf of the applicant in regards to his intent with the purchase of the property to create nine residential lots even though there was additional land designated. He indicated that the applicant had agreed to only request two additional lots and would redesignate the remainder of the lands if these two lots were approved. There was discussion by the Committee in regards to the policies of the Official Plan and their concern about the impact of this application and the non- conformity with the intent of the Official Plan policies. Moved by Susan Grant, seconded by Councillor Ruth Fountain "It is recommended that Development Application P-97/99 a proposed Official Plan Amendment not proceed as proposed by the applicant. It is recommended that the application proceed to a Public Meeting in accordance with the Planning Act for the rezoning of the three residential lots conditionally granted by consent and for the redesignation of the remainder of the Shoreline designated lands." • ...carried. u 7:40 p.m. Joseph and Ana Stanesic P-96/99 Concession 4, Part of Lot 6 (Oro) Proposed Official Plan Amendment In Attendance: Joseph and Ana Stanesic and son, Applicants Ms. Leigh provided an update of this application indicating that the applicant had provided a second proposal for the Committee to consider in a letter dated December 21, 1999. The second proposal would be for two rural residential lots along the Bass Lake Side Road each being 1 acre in size and the remaining 28 acres would be utilized for seasonal trailer use. Ms. Leigh indicated that the second proposal does not conform with the intent of the Official Plan policies and that additional justification would have been required to consider such an application for the seasonal trailers. The two proposed residential lots would also not comply with the policies for development by consent in the Rural designation. Mr. Stanesic provided additional background information to the Committee indicating that he had appealed the Official Plan Amendment #5 (Edgar Occupational Centre) because it was allowing development on a neighbouring . property but would not allow development on his property. He indicated that all services would be available to the site and that he had people asking him to be able to build homes on the property. He indicated that there were no additional lots in Horseshoe Valley and there was a demand for additional homes in the area. The Committee clarified that in fact the applicant was talking about servicing the property by either by communal well or would look to extend the Horseshoe Valley water system. It was further determined that the applicant was indicating that the gas pipeline from the Horse Valley area would be extended to service these lots. Moved by Paul Marshall, seconded by Susan Grant "It is recommended that Development Application P-96199 a proposed Official Plan Amendment be denied as it does not conform with the relevant policies." ..Carried. lJ 6.
