For Toronto Departures 10 Acton/Georgetown, Friday, September 21, 2007 Three neighbours, immediately adja- cent to a proposed 13-lot subdivision in Norval, voiced opposition to the pro- posal at a public meeting Monday night at the Civic Centre. Ted Thompson, Pauline Gladstone and Brian McGillivray cited a litany of concerns about the plan, called Village Villas, located on the south side of Hwy. 7, at the bottom of the hill heading into Norval. The 13 homes will be built on two acres of the 7.75- acre property. The neighbours pointed out the dan- gerous curve in the road where many accidents have occurred, density of the housing project, non-conformity to the surrounding heritage homes, the lack of servicing availability, impact on the neighbours ingress and egress from their driveways, lack of action on the transportation study calling for a Norval bypass, possible pumping station leaks, impact on the environment and block- age of a potential pathway for residents walking the Silver Creek banks. This is premature, and not in the public interest at this time, said McGillivray. No other residents spoke at the meeting. Halton Region staff agree with the residents that the application is prema- ture. They have indicated to Town planning staff that the Halton-Peel Transportation Study, which includes consideration of a Norval bypass, must be completed soon. As well, Halton Region will not grant approval until there is water available for the homes. Credit Valley Conservation staff are still mapping the property to determine the precise boundaries of the Environmental Sensitive Area on the property. Paul King, planning consultant for Village Villas, which is owned by Georgetown Estates developer John Spina, said, We recognize that this is only one step in the planning process, the inter-regional transportation study is still ongoing ... and we also recognize that there isnt servicing capacity for this property currently and that will be required before any approval by this council. But however we do also think it is important to move the process forward if we can and this public process is real- ly intended to allow the public to have their say and to be heard so ... we can understand what their issues may be and seek to address them. We recognize where we stand in the process but we are however anxious to hear what the public has to say, so we can deal with their issues and move forward. The site is intended to be serviced by tunneling under Silver Creek and link- ing to the pumping station on the west bank.
