LG SE Ki hh Ee SURE Ni ¢ emand for road By a recorded vote of 4-2 (with one member absent) Scu- gog council has dropped its pre- vious demand that a developer construct a second road access to serve the Oak Hills Golf Course and residential develop- ment in the southwest corner of the Township. The vote to drop the de- mand for the second road came Monday afternoon and was sup- ported by Mayor Howard Hall, and councillor Neil Hunter, Al Goreski and Glenn Malcolm. Councillors Yvonne Chris- tie and Don Cochrane, voted against the resolution waving the demand for the second road access. : And when the vote was fin- ished, councillor Cochrane was angry. He called it a "snow job in the month of June." But councillor Hunter, who put forward the resolution to drop the demands for the road, said "if the developer (Ridge- land Developments of Oshawa) takes (Scugog) to the OMB over this, we are going to look like a bunch of fools and it will cost Scugog a lot of money (for an OMB hearing) And Mayor Hall agreed with councillor Hunter. This issue has been bounced around by council for over a year. Ridgeland has already de- veloped 52 expensive estate lots and a nine hole golf course. The company now wants approval to develop a further nine holes for the course and 12 more estate lots. Council originally had de- manded a new access road from the development east to the Ashburn Road, but Ridgeland balked, saying the cos is prohib- itive, traffic counts don't war- rant it, and a second access for emergency vehicles only could come from the Chalk Lake Road over the golf course lands. Councillor Cochrane said he's convinced that Ridgeland will proceed with the golf course expansion (the second nine holes) but will apply in the fu- ture for condominium units, as many as 44. "For that number of people, a second access road is needed," he said. However, the resolution en- dorsed Monday approves only the golf course expansion and 12 building lots. Councillor Malcolm said if the company re-applies for cond units, the council then has the option to demand the second ac- cess road be built.
