STUDY COMMENCEMENT AND PUBLIC INFORMATION CENTRE #1 May 6, 2009 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. (drop in style) Town Hall, 1225 Trafalgar Road, Engineering Boardroom, first floor Oakville Transit Bus Garage Construction Environmental Assessment and Preliminary Design This is the first of two Public Information Centres planned for the Environmental Assessment. This is an opportunity for residents to drop in and get information on the planned expansion. Town of Oakville Council approved, in principle, the 2007 Transit Facilities Strategy, and the Town has now retained Giffels Associates Limited / IBI Group to prepare the Oakville Transit Bus Garage Environmental Assessment and Preliminary Design. This strategy identifies a need to acquire a new site and construct a new single facility that provides all essential functions including administration, operations, maintenance and storage. The preferred new location is at 430 Wyecroft Road in the town's central industrial area south of the QEW. The ability to maintain existing service quality is being compromised and there is no opportunity for further growth of transit services at the current location. The 2007 Transit Facility Strategy emphasises the need to commence the design and construction of the facility subject to budget approval. Funding has now been allocated by Town Council for land acquisition, project planning and design. The Town must complete an Environmental Assessment for transit projects before constructing the planned facility expansion. Any environmental impacts of this planned facility expansion on the study area are being assessed in the Environmental Assessment in accordance with the transit project assessment process required by Ontario Regulation 231/08. Information on this Environmental Assessment is available on the Oakville Transit website at www.oakvilletransit.com, or by contacting: The personal information accompanying your submission is being collected under the authority of the Planning Act and may form part of the public record which may be released to the public. Questions about this collection should be directed to the Records and Freedom of Information Officer at 905-815-6053.
