confus ed A special meeting had been called by council so that residents could voice their concerns over the development of property by the Interna tional Peace Camp But the Peace Camp lawyer Douglas Quick soy what the future holds for the site Previously a proposal called for trailer and recreational facilities to accommodate people Mr Quick only wanted to talk about an applies Residents have fought proposals since May 83 Colin Muspratt didn I come to town council to talk about a trailer He wanted to know what in store for a planned recreation site Mr Muspratt is the spokesman for area residents in Speyside who signed a petition against further development of property owned by the In terra t Ion Peace Camp The Spcyside residents have been battling with owners of the property since 1983 A numbered company leases the land to the International Peace Camp Two years ago a development permit was rejected by the Niagara Escarpment ion In June of S3 Milton town council t ratify the proposal and Hills councillors refrained from decision until they discussed the plans with Peace Camp Members An original proposal for development of the property called for 100 trailer units 50 multiple units an amphitheatre and parking facilities for cars Later the Peace Camp scaled down their plans due to budget considerations Mr Muspratt says he Is worried the owners may Increase the scale of their operation when they have the money Land cleared by fire has gone out of control twice on the Peace Camp Property and the fire department had to respond Mr Muspratt said In their submission the Speyside residents noted the Peace Camp had already once placed a trailer on their property and It was subsequently removed by the order of the NEC A roadway to the site Is also In dispute and is being referred to the courts for a decision Mr Muspratt said In April the Town of Hills objected to the placement of a trailer so as not to let the project go ahead on a piecemeal basis he said I find it most unsatisfactory hes Peace Camp Lawyer Douglas Quick not willing to come here and discuss these concerns Mr Muspratt said Nevertheless he went ahead with a list of problems the

meeting where the engineers response could be discussed The other speakers on the transportation study Lillias Bowman and Pet both of Eden Place did not appear Monday night although they were scheduled as delegations before for a trailer to cut down on vandalism to the site on weekends We re trying to look at ways of policing the place Mr Quick said Because the town has said the road
