the matter is resolved Peace Camps development application win likely be circulated to Helton Hills the region provincial of the environment natural resource and tourism and recreation health unit the regions ecological environ ment advisory committee and Region Conservation Authority this week if flnal details of the project are submitted to the NEC quickly enough The circulation process takes about four to six weeks before all comments are reviewed by NEC staff Then they formulate their own recommendations and the ap plication goes to the Commission After a decision is banded down by the Commission the applicant neighbors or any circulating agency can appeal the Ion and a bearing will be beld in Kills council chambers After a decision is banded down by the Commission all property owners within feet of the out side perimeters of the acre site will receive notification and they have days to appeal At a hearing all neighbors not just those living within feet could testily Then the bearing officer would review the evidence and forward a recommendation to the minister of housing No development or building on the site can lake place until after the NEC makes a deci sion and not until the minister of housing makes a decision If there is an appeal NEC planners Pat and Keith Anderson and Landscape Technician Dave Wells reviewed the process the Interna tional Peace Camp application will follow as well as the appeal process in an Interview Friday Tfaey explained under the section of Ihe proposed Niagara Escarpment Plan governing most of this property a recrea tion centre Is allowed Threequarters of the property is classed as Escarpment Rural the balance on the east side of the site 1 Escarpment Natural Development could only take place on the Escarpment Rural However just because the International Peace Camp appears to be a permitted use doesnt mean there can t be problems Anderson said Scale or size of a development is con along with other development criteria they said Hills has no restrictions on the International Peace Camp property according to Town planner Ian Keith because It is in the Niagara Escarpment Commission jurisdiction Control in entirely through the NEC he noted The NEC can from Halton Kills planning policies but Isnt bound by the Town view Ware in the hands of the NEC on this Keith explained The Esqueslng Official Plan designated this land as Special Policy Area Two which means NEC control In the new Halton HUls plan which isnt approved yet the Interna tlonal Peace Camp property Is designated NEC complimentary area and public and private parks and recreation areas are permitted So summing up Keith noted the and Halton Hills plans say this development Is permitted and so does the NEC proposed plan and the NEC has development control One Impact Keith sees coming from this development If It is approved Is heavy traffic on two rural roads IS Slderoad west of Speyside and the Town Line He said he cant see outside of the NEC wanting Town comments any reason for the International Peace Camp to have to deal with the Town Councillor Pam Sheldon suggests Halton can have a stronger role In the applica tion process for this development then Keith envisions now She says a toning amendment passed in because of problems with other major recreational uses in the rural area says no more major recreations uses will be allowed Sheldon also noted In an interview that the NEC proposed plan says where a municipalitys restrictions are more severe man the NEC then the municipal controls take precldence The NEC planners backed her view to an extent They agreed that where municipal poUciea are more restrictive then the NEC tries to follow the municipalitys wishes They acknowledged there Is the zoning amendment which Is an Indication of municipal wishes but the amendment isnt as strong a point as if the or proposed Hills Official Plans didnt permit a recreation centre The planners noted that will be something Kills must clarify should the toning or Official Plan pohcies be followed Also the planner believe Hills can be given site plan control of the ite plan agreement with the Menduintfs If you happen to
