Sands residents oppose re-zoning application by scrapyard operator By Dianne Cornish ‘For the second time in a week, an angry resident of The Sands condominium complex addressed Halton Hills Town Council to cola that nla town uphold its ing bylaws “Michael Norris addressed coun- cil Monday night, reiterating much of what he told a committee meet- ing of council last week about the failure of the Monarch Resources scrapyard to conform with the existing town bylaw for the Armstrong Avenue site which pro- * hibits open storage. This time, however, Norris ques- tioned planning staff recommenda- tions to a site plan committee meet- ing Monday morning which sug- gested that Monarch present a plan for an enclosed building on the property, which lies immediately west of The Sands. “The presentation by planning staff is prejudicial to our cause,” Norris said. While thanking council for its foresight in announcing last week that the site plan committee meet- ing would be purely an information session rendering no decision on Monarch’s re-zoning application, the Sands’ resident questioned why the planning staff report was pre- pared, “in the first place,” at the site plan committee stage.

To further promote the event, Scouts and Guides are distributing advertising posters and Food Bank Drive bags. About eight youngsters attended the town council presenta- tion to hand out posters and collec- tion bags to councillors. Halton Hills and area homeown- ers are encouraged to fill the paper bags with foodstuffs in preparation for pick-up at their door next Saturday.

He also told council strenuously to consideration of re- zoning” the property, even if an enclosed structure is proposed for processing and recycling drywall, metal and other construction mate- rials at the scrapyard. Cautioning council that other businesses will be encouraged to set up shop “in contravention of bylaws” unless the town enforces its bylaws, Norris asked: “Why encourage it?” Councillor Pam Johnston, chair- man of the town’s site plan review committee, such meetings deal only with items like parking and building, not re-zoning. While Norris didn’t debate the function of site plan committee, he expressed concern over planning staff’s presentation to the commit- tee. The report was prepared before the meeting and gave him the ipreey that planning staff had made “foregone conclusions” about the operation of a salvage yard on 26" Remote Colour.
