REPORTS OF COMMITTEES:
Report #11-Planning and Development Committee ... Various Matters
The Planning & Development Committee held a meeting on January 3rd, 1979 at
3:00 p.m. and the following were present: Councillor R. Isaacson, Councillor
Kel Tonner, Councillor B. Pedersen, Councillor E. Stewart, Councillor J. West,

A. Delegations:
1. Mr. Ted Rowe regarding the Sismans Residential Townhouse proposal.
Mr. Ted Rowe, Owner, appeared before the Committee explaining his proposal
which has been reduced from 49 units to 44 units.
The Committee supports the revised proposal and would recommend:
1. An Official Plan Amendment and a Re-zoning be processed.
2. The Town be satisfied that the four items raised in Mrs. Seibert's letter
of June 29th, 1978 be met prior to development:
(a) The density should not exceed about 17 units to the acre, as has
been provided for the type of housing proposed by By-Law 1863.
(b) Methods of screening and buffering the residential units from the
industrial uses to the east and south should be investigated and a scheme
satisfactory to the Town arrived at.
(c) Methods of reducing the noise levels on the site should be
investigated and a proposal satisfactory to the Ministry of the Environment
arrived at.
(d) The site plan should be revised to maximize the relationship of the
site with the residential development west and north and minimize the
impact of the industrial area to the south and east on the proposed
development.
3. The 50 foot road allowance as per Mr. Wm. Walker's memo dated December
28th, 1978, be approved; i.e. with a 30 foot minimum turning radius on
the cul-de-sac, and the road allowance at this point to be 35 feet
minimum.

total cost of erection based on competitive quotations, for chain link fence
installations conforming to Town specifications.
2. Letter 13-124 -Landscaping -Graystones
The Committee agree that improvements in the appearance of this area are desirable

3. Water Tower Painting Contract
Several complaints have been received about the quality of the lettering on the
water tower at the south end of Town. Although this is a Regional responsibility
it does reflect on the Town as a whole and the Town receives the criticism. The
Region have verbally informed the Town Superintendent that a charge of $600.00
would be made to the Town in order to repaint the Town name on the tower. The
majority of the Committee are not in favour of this expenditure.

REPORTS OF COMMITTEES (continued)
Bruce E. Freeman appeared at the Hearing.
The OWner seeks consent to convey to an abutting property owner, a parcel of land
having an area of 1.360 hectares (3.361 acres) with no frontage. The land will be
conveyed in conjunction with the land that is the subject of Application Number
A.78.9 for purposes of a land assembly for a proposed residential plan of
subdivision. The owner would retain a parcel of land having an area of 1.712
hectares (4.23 acres) with frontage of 67.056 metres (220 feet) on the west side
of Bayview Avenue, for residential purposes. The subject land is vacant. There
is an existing dwelling located on the land to be retained. The application was
heard in conjunction with another application by V.N. Styrmo under Application
Number A.78.9.
In considering the owner's proposal, the Committee had regard to subsection 4 of
section 33 of The Planning Act and to written and oral submissions and comments
made at the Hearing.
The owner's land is designated as "Estate Residential" on the Official Plan which
provides that estate development must retain the rural character of the area. The
Plan has been approved by the Minister.
The land is zoned "R" -Rural by By-law 2142-77 which requires minimum lot areas of
25 acres and minimum frontages of 600 feet. The By-law has been approved by the
Municipal Board.
The Committee notes that on November 6, 1978, the Aurora Council passed By-law
2216-78, a By-law to amend By-law 2142-77, rezoning the owner's land to "RR2" -
Rural Estate First Density, which requires minimum lot areas of 2 acres and
minimum frontages of 150 feet. That By-law has not yet been approved by the
Municipal Board.
The Committee concludes the proposal conforms to the Official Plan and will
conform to the Zoning By-law if By-law 2216-78 is approved by the Municipal Board
and if the subject land is conveyed only to the owner abutting on the south and
west. The Committee is satisfied that conveyance of the subject land will not
adversely affect the established pattern of development in the area and the shape
and dimensions of the resulting lots are adequate and the lots are suitable for
the intended purposes. The Committee is further satisfied the conveyance will
not be detrimental to the public interest. In the opinion of the Committee, a
plan of subdivision approved under section 33 of The Planning Act is not
necessary to ensure the proper and orderly development of the Municipality.
It is, therefore, the decision of the Land Division Committee that consent be
Granted to Application Number A.78.8, upon fulfillment of the following conditions:
1. Payment of all taxes, to date, to the Town of Aurora;
2. Payment of an Administrative Fee of $100.00, to the Town of Aurora;

Billion while the expenditures were $29.65 Billion and,
Whereas during the 12 month period from November, 1977 to

Then Be It Hereby Resolved that the Council of this Municipality

"Whereas the Aurora Public Library has been and is a "Selective

And Whereas the Department of Supply and Services for Canada intends

such designated libraries wherein such information is used by a
large number of people,
And Whereas the Aurora Public Library draws patrons from not only
the Town of Aurora (population 14,991) but also from the Township
of King (population 14,671) and the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville
(population 13,219).
Therefore, be it resolved that the Council of the Town of Aurora
endorse the protest of the Aurora Public Library Board in this
regard,
