Residents of Cashel Court re: Coscan and Landford
" Aurora Country" Subdivision. Construction Deficiencies
Mr. Dino Basso stated that he represented residents of Cashel Court which is located in
the south west portion of Town. He advised Council that in his opinion, Report PW97-
031-213 did not address the concerns detailed in his correspondence tabled for Council's
consideration later in the Agenda. He stated that Staff were advised that repairs
completed by the developer were not providing a permanent solution to the sinkholes
which were occurring regularly within the vicinity. He provided a number of photographs
of the damage caused by the sinkholes and pointed out the risk of personal injury that
may have occurred in these incidents. He expressed concern regarding residential
financial implications and liability concerns when the subdivision is to be assumed by the
Town. He requested that Staff withhold all securities from the developer until an
investigation is conducted to determine a plan of action for a permanent solution to this
problem and also that the affected residents be notified of any further Council decisions
in this regard.
