BUTCHER SH'OP, 122 Athol St., Whitby 430mMEAT (6328) Cobi Foods projeet stalled by< lîghts By Mike Kowalk The fate of a 130-unit housing development on the former Cobi Foods s'ite may hinge on who pays for traffle signals on Brock Street. Town council's planning and development committee gave conditionai approval Monday to a plan of subdivision for a town- house complex proposed for the former canning factory property on the northwest corner of Brock and Maple streets. But before> the projeet can pro- ceed, the developer must b. pre- pared te, spend t;40,000 for traffie signalization at the intersection, committe. recommended. * A refusal te do so could jeo- pardize the entire development, committe. warned. .«Traffic lights should *b. put thereý, otherwise the plan of sub- division is premature»" councillor and committee chair Marcel Brunelle teld representatives of the River Oaks Group. «We would b. permitting un- safe conditions if w. didn't have lights and that's not acceptable," h. said. Brunelle's blunt message fol- lowed a request fromn the develo- per that comnittee ignore *a planning department recommen- dation that it contribute $40,000 tewards the approximately $6 000 cost of installing lights at tLe intersection. Lyn Townsend Rbrsn. soli-; citer for Rivere Oalcs partners with Cobi Foods i tËe projet argiied that her client should noti have te pay the additional expense smnce a portion of the development charges (lot levies) are expressly for this purpose. However, a planning staff report noted that while traffic signais are included in the deve- lopment charges levied against each unit, the calculation was based upon a subsidy from the Ontario Ministry of Transpor-. tation. That subsidy is no longer available and other monies muet be found te make up the short- fal the report states. rIhe $40,000 represents the subsidy on which the develop- ment levy was based, the report adds. But Townsend-Robertson coun- tered that River Oaks should not T 1RY BODY WAXING TIfSI %MR An effective solution for unwanted hai r for 3 to ýI' (Individual results ilI vai'v) removing 5 weeks 1 'o o o> <w> I <w> Cl N 'o o o> b. penaiized because of a change i provincial policy and have te «pay twice" as a resuit. While he had some syrnpathy for her argument, councillor Don Mitchell said existing 'residents should not be expected to subsid- ize new development. If the government insiste that this will -be the. case, «then our position will b. no growth,» said Brunelle concurred and sug- gested that Townsend-Robertson nformi her client that it should complain to, Queen's Park. eW don't have the money and we don't want te get it fromn the tax ayera of the community," he '~Ihe province is downloading on to the municipalities and we're not prepared to accept it.» While the tamfe signais' issue remains i limbo, most of the concerna of area homeowners have been resolved since the matter last came before commit- tee in February. Willis Avenue resident Joan Manin complaied that a noise lm act study prepared for ]River O=& did not sufficientiy address the problem of noise reflection from the nearby Canadian Paci- fie railway trach». Manin said the atudy shouid have been umdertaken iin the winter when the frozen ýground and barren trees cannot absorb the sound fromý the trains. However, Mann was pleased after hearing that a prooe noise fence and berm would be designed i such a way that the sound would b. no greater than, what was heard- when the factor stilI existed. Followinu committee's deci- sinChitopher Matson of RieOaka said he -and Town- send-Robertson will attempt te convince council te approve the subdivision plan without forcing his company te pay thé addi- tional coïs.. But Brunelle told repoïters that they should not exqpet coun- cil te be receptive. "If the province Is going te take money away, let it be on the backs of developers,» he said.
