and the flooding of water, the building of a garage and if there a second level and
confirmation if the addition are to be living quarters.
John Treloar questioned the purpose of the two story addition to a single detached
building and the relief sections. He questioned what is being presented is with respect
to the first notice of December and questioned the notice of the second application as
he wanted to ensure what was being voted on and there was no margin of error. He
provided concerns regarding the posting of the sign, replacing cottages with family
homes, people choose to not live in high density areas, the public hearing notice,
opposition of voting on the proposal vs. potential future activities, STR concerns, zoning
by-law should be adhered to, safety concerns, drainage, the high density is not in
keeping with Places to Grow policy, it is a major variance not minor, impacts of mature
vegetation, fencing concerns, do not want to live in a subdivision, enforcing the rules in
place and setting precedent in years to come.
Susan Cowie provided comments of the concern to appear to be supporting applicant in
a large variation of the use of land, the size of project and the protection for adjacent
land owners, not a minor variance but a major change of existing lands, consideration of
the proposal dimension lot concerns vs. application, opposition of the application which
will allow the destruction of hedge, privacy concerns, fears hedge will be reduced for the
new garage and dwelling, emergency access concerns, concerns of approval to
establish a STR operation with no supervision, owners will not be present, opportunity
to create an atmosphere of noise, unruly activities, unknown persons and abusing
privilege of being in a quiet lifestyle cottage area, area should be pride of Township and
not an opportunity to spoil what has been in place for years.
