25| The IFP -H alton H ills | T hursday,July 12,2018 theifp.ca Council is reviewing an application for a two-storey commercial unit at 249-251 Guelph St., beside the last residential home on that strip of highway. The main floor is expec- ted to be a "chicken restau- rant" with a drive-through, with two other retail units. There will be business spac- es on the second floor, as well. During a recent plan- ning, transportation and public works meeting, Coun. Bryan Lewis voiced concern for the house, ask- ing if there can be any con- cessions made in the plan- ning to ease the impact of the new development beside it. He says he knew of an el- derly woman who lived in the house for decades, who was approached by develop- ers but chose to stay. Coun. Dave Kentner says the woman has died but her family are still living there. Planners said that there have been requirements of fencing and landscaping to mitigate any impact of the restaurant's late-night busi- ness on the home beside it. "I'm a believer that we're elected to look after the peo- ple that live here," said Lew- is, explaining that he wants to make sure that the home is still protected enough from the noise of neighbour- ing businesses, to be com- fortable to live. The planning depart- ment brought forward a re- port to council proposing a housekeeping amendment to bring the site, 249-251 un- der the same zoning amend- ment. Previously, the two lots were under different zon- ing, as the previous owner of the site had plans to build of- fice spaces, but that never came into fruition.
