Council objects to severance of lots alongside Lake Acton council made no ob jections to three applications to be dealt with by the Committee of of Adjustment next Monday but objected to a fourth asking for a severance on Elmore Drive adjacent to parkland on Fairy Lake A resolution passed objecting to the application for severance by Joe Jany because the creation of two lots would prohibit an adequate and safe allowance along Fairy Lake Mayor Duby voted against the resolution because the property owners who originally hadsavedihelot for their own use He opposed encumbering their application He said Mr originally hoped to have four lots alone the lake but had acceded to the wishes of council and parks board in reducing the request to two fronting on Elmore Drive However deputy reeve Peter Marks felt adequate walkway from parkland behind Elizabeth Drive to Elmore Drive was necessary and the severance could make passage difficult and unsafe because of the steep grade of Fairy Lake banks Residents meet Councillor Barry said he attended a meeting of residents In the area on Monday and they were not too happy with the application because their access to the park and lake would be cut off and the continuity of the lake green belt would be disturbed He asked if it was possible for Parks Board to purchase the tract of land and incorporate it into he system of parking or have it rezoned The clerk recalled the deputy reeve a efforts to have the area rezoned two years ago and the subsequent turn down suggest council put themselves in Mr shoes He said the lot If severed could be worth as much as but if zoned for parkland would be vlr nothing However Marks said It bother his conscience too much because the land had been low and swampy before public money had been spent to fill It with dredging material his concern was for an adequate walkway for the park system He felt council must consider the public good and register a obligation Marks said he did not think council could stop Mr from building since the land was zoned Hi but felt the committee of adjustment should be aware of the narrow walkway Earlier the clerk pointed out the three part application was also asking for a conveyance from to Mr Jany and vice versa to straighten out the lots had negotiated with Mr Jany to nave the strip along the lake for public use Mr had one complete building lot feet by feet but needed a minor variance of over two feel to cover the second lot Short parking Council made no objection to an application by Braida who wished a minor variance to erection of a 60 foot at Mill St on the east side of the Rum ley Shoemaker funeral home Mr Braida proposes to have offices in the building and Tour apartments above hem however he lacks two parking spaces to supply the minimum requirement of la and has applied for a variance The ex the application would not be delayed because there is a provision in the by law to allow extra parking spaces within feet Council gave conditional to an application by T Pratt a solicitor who wishes to operate a law firm from the basement of house at E Theclerk explained provision had been made in the by law Tor professional people but through an oversight lawyers had not been included so Mr Pratt was applying for a variance Council made no ob jection providing the practice was limited to the basement as outlined n the application Another application from Mrs Daisy Barber to sever a double house raised no objections j Lets Play Bridge DELICIOUS from the nose right down to the toes the way Susie Bennett imagines this
