On the Environmental impact of building an Inclined Elevator at 1 Trafalger
Drive in Oro Medonte.
To: The Oro Medonte Planning Commission & Lake Simcoe Conservation
Authority
From: Inclined Elevation Inc., Bracebridge, Ontario
Denis Tascone has asked us to describe to you the low environmental impact
that one of our inclined elevators would have on his property.
We visited his property and found a route for a 95' long lift that will allow the
owners and their friends, independent of age and health, a safe, low -impact,
means of getting up and down the steep 40' rise from a possible future
boathouse to just below the planned cottage site. This route does not require
the cutting of any trees, though some underbrush will be cleared.
The terrain is forest floor, so we will anchor the 6 sets of legs on beds of pea
gravel, each under 7 square feet. The simple foundation works because of the
light loading, less than 500 lbs. static and 2000 lbs. when loaded, and because
our triangular bracing system produces no torque forces at the base of the
legs. The photo below is a typical leg.
The legs are spaced at approximately 20' intervals, and, because they are
attached to the track with rigid triangular structures in directions along and
perpendicular to the track, the track will have a small but stabilizing effect on
the hillside.
We take great care to minimize the impact of the construction on the
environment. We built a lift on Crystal Beach and worked off ladders laid flat
on the hillside to protect the vegetation. The slope was nearly 40 degrees and
the roots helped hold the sandy soil from eroding downhill.
When we were done you could hardly tell that the vegetation had been
disturbed. This picture was taken late in the build, as evidenced by the
temporary support for the button box standing to our right side of the track.
After the brief two-week construction phase, the 90 second ride from the top
of the hill to the boathouse or back will take riders over the terrain rather than
on the terrain, Animals and vegetation have an almost unrestricted access to
the terrain. Humans will have almost no impact on the environment. Far less
than a walking path.
Our lifts are also very hard to see, at the photo below shows. The lift in this
picture is broadside to the camera and runs from just above the dock on the
left to the cottage level at the crest of the hill.
Allowing Mr Tascone to build this lift will cause minimal environmental impact and
transformation change in the benefit of owning the lot at 1 Trafalger Drive.
Please feel free to contact me either by email, iohii@inclinedelevation.com, or on my
cell at 705 783 9352.
Sincerely,
John Weinstein, PhD.

Hello Todd, Taylor, Dennis,
Cambium had not indicated shoreline access or a boathouse as the EIS was solely for severance, as no concept for
a home and/or accessory structures exists at this time. We had not indicated such, so as to riot dictate the
location or construction methods of said structures for a future buyer.
We had not stated that the 30 m shoreline VPZ needed to be rezoned, solely that the VPZ area respect the LSRCA
policies, including enhancement with native species. While we had stated that the "proposed development" be
sited beyond the erosion hazard limit - this would be in reference to any proposed home, and was not intended
to preclude the creation of shoreline access. As per Section 5.0 of the EIS, it is our position that the 30 m VPZ
would not need to be rezoned, but would be best served from enhancement with native species.
The LSRCA have indicated support of this position In their earlier email today, stating that "the owner of both the
retained and severed lots could in the future install/replace shoreline access and a boathouse within the 30m VPZ
subject to proper environmental reports, geotechs, permits, etc,"
Regards,
Austin Adams
