Continued from page 1 ment, said charges have twice been laid. against Monarch, resulting in convictions and fines on both occasions. In the summer of 1985, provin- cial offences court in Milton fined Monarch $250 for not being prop- erly zoned to operated as a scrap- yard. In the summer of 1989, after two years of unsuccessful negotia- tion between town bylaw enforce- ment and Monarch officials about operation of the scrapyard without a licence, the town brought Monarch to court again. Another conviction was achieved a a small fine was imposed. According to Ron Stein, a bylaw enforcement officer for Halton Hills, the provincial court issued a couft order that Monarch, which would soon be undergoing an Ontario Municipal Board (OMB) hearing on an application for re- zoning, should comply with the tuling on the issue. However, Monarch modified its Te-zoning application in the midst of the OMB hearing and the Board never ruled on the original applica- tion. According to the town’s plan- ning director Ian Keith, the origi- nal application from Monarch was filed in June, 1988. Stein told Halton Hills This Week that Monarch has never had a licence from the town because a zoning application has remained unresolved ever since the 1990 court order regarding the OMB and the subsequent revision of Monarch’s application. The town’s zoning officer Brian Murdoch also described operation of the salvage yard on the site as “a current illegal use.” The town has taken Monarch to court twice and has obtained convictions on both occasions, he said. While fielding questions from councillors Monday, Tse said that since the postponement of the OMB hearing and Monarch’s sub- mission of a modified re-zoning application, his opinion is that “it is impossible to charge (Monarch) under the same thing again.” He later noted that bylaw enforcement officers and senior planners have visited the site and “started an investigation. Halton.Hills This Week, Saturday, October 24, 1992 - Page-9 Scrapyard owner proposes enclosed buildings By Dianne Cornish The owner. of Monarch Resources on Armstrong Avenue, Georgetown, said he plans to build two fully-enclosed buildings on the site as part of a revised re-zoning application that will be discussed Monday morning at a meeting of the Halton Hills site plan commit- tee meeting. During a telephone interview Thursday, Wayne Olson described his waste disposal and salvage operation as “a viable business” employing two full-time and two part-time workers. Although origi- nal plans included only a roof cover over part of the property, Olson now proposes an 80-foot- wide, 200-foot-long building at the back of the property for processing and sorting drywall, wood and scrap metal. Olson told Halton Hills This Week that when he orig- inally bought the property in 1978, he intended to establish a transfer station and recycling depot on site. However, that proposal fell through in 1980 when another business in the area got the government con- tract to process waste and prepare it for recycling. “As time rolled on, we got more into the scrap metal business,” he said. Olson said he applied for a licence from the town but was told that he would have to go through “the routine of re-zoning.” A site specific zoning is needed to recognize the scrapyard as a “legal conforming” use on the property, he said. “TI have been applying (for re- zoning)...and the process has been going on over the course of time. But, it ee, t just start yesterday,” Olson sai Asked % explain how Monarch can operate without a licence from the town, he said: “It’s a matter of how do you put bread and butter on the table. Do we apply to the food- banks or do we work?” Olson said if the processing and sorting building is approved, there will be no materials visible on the Property except empty bins or con- tainers loaded with ee wait- ing to be processed indoor “Unfortunately, I nage a : NIMBY (Not In My Backyard) type of busi- ness,” he added. “Eyes see junk material on site, but there’s also an economic end to the business.” Did you see Angie's listing on the Ballinafad Sideroad? + OHSAS The one that's just east of Trafalgar?
