Page 4 — Halton Hills This Week, Saturday/‘Odtobet'9, 1993 Mackenzie battles on with downtow By Oksana Buhel After a bit of frowning, fate has smiled on Sandy lackenzie. The Georgetown developer has scaled the first stage of development plans for his James and Wesleyan Sts. Property. Town of Haltori Hills coun- cil voted Monday to approve the rezoning of Mackenzie’s Property, despite voiced con- cern of area residents. Potosky, spok: son for Remembrance Park area residents agreed with the Urban Review Study Group’s decision limiting the density level in the’area to 40 units Per acre (upa) and a height of six stories. She was distirbed with the town’s planning department’s recommenda- tion the land be considered “site specific,” allowing the limits to be‘ increased to 60 upa and eight stories. “This was never the inten- tion of the members of the study group,” Potosky insist- ed. She was equally concerned the final form of the proposed building had not been decided on and that neighboring resi- “Announcement” 3 2 dents would have their public input privileges hindered once the application reached the site planning stage. Although the site specific aspect of the area suggests 1.5 parking spots be allocated per residential unit, which Mackenzie said he would pro- vide, Potosky suggested the narrowness of the streets would necessitate two spots - a practice followed ‘in Mississauga. She concluded there was more to revitalizing down- town than bringing more resi- dents in. She spoke of the “preservation and enhance- ment of the unique character of existing residential and commercial uses.” Archie Tannock, member of the Urban Area Study Group, also condemned the Proposal. “Since our (the. study group’s) decision, the density has been increased by 50 per cent and the maximum number of stories by 33.3 cent,” he pointed out. “I’m wondering if I've wasted my time on this thing.” Tannock urged council to reject the MON CONCEF CENTRES FINANCIAL FORUM Saturday, October 23, 1993 from 11 a.m. fo 2 p.m. EY EPTS move’?

Councillor Rob-Heaton agreed “100 per cent” with Tannock. Councillor Al Cook pointed out Mackenzie’s application was submitted before the study was completed and although Tannock agreed, he insisted “two wrongs don’t make a right.” Deputy planner Bruce MacLean explained in great detail how the application fit Tequirements of the Halton Hills Official Plan, the Halton Hills Land Use Study and the Municipal Housing Statement. “The planning department has no problem with this application,” MacLean said. Councillors Pam Johnston and Anne Currie both agreed with MacLean, but Councillor Marilyn Serjeantson vaguely told council not to concern themselves too much, since “chances are this won’t even be built.” Potosky’s recommendation that another public meeting be called as. more concrete plans are submitted for site plan approval was rejected by mayor Russ Miller because of the cost and by Johnston because of the duplication with public attendance at site plan meetings. (At site plan meetings, only residents in the immediate area are invited to Participate).
