REPORTS OF COMMITTEES (continued)
Report# 71-York Regional Land Division Committee ... Application 168.82.A
(Fairway He1ghts Investments Limited) (continued)
TM TH> MATTER OF an application by Fairway Heights Investments Limited, for consent
to convey the subject 1 and marked "A" on a sketch attached as Appendix Number 1.
BEFORE: R.E. Preston (Chairman), W. Bales, J.D. Brookes, G.R. Gregory, J.S.
Hicks, B. Tucciarone, L.T. Wainwright, being a quorum of the Land
Division Committee on Tuesday, July 27, 1982.
Kevin Dow, a controller for Fairway Heights Investments Limited, was present at the
Hearing.
The owner proposes to convey the subject 1 and marked "A" on the attached sketch for
industrial purposes, and retain the land marked "B" for industrial purposes. There
is an existing building (Number 325) located on the subject land. The land to be
retained is vacant.
The Committee accepts an amendment to the application to delete lot 21, plan M-2012
as it is a whole lot in a plan of subdivision and does not require consent to
convey, so that the application is for consent to convey the southerly two metres,
approximately, lot 22, plan M-2012, to the owner of lot 21, instead of as
originally submitted, without further notice to affected property owners and
agencies, as shown on Appendix Number 2, attached hereto.
In reaching a decision, the Committee had regard to all of the matters set out in
subsection 4 of section 36 of The Planning Act and to the written and oral
submissions and comments made at the Heari nq.
'The Committee notes the conveyance is required to provide an existing industrial
building on lot 21 to the south, with a northerly sideyard in conformity with the
By-Law.
On the basis of the evidence before it, the Committee concludes the proposal
conforms to the Official Plan and the Zoning By-Law.
The Committee is satisfied the proposal is compatible with the established pattern
of development in the area and the conveyance will not be detrimental to the public
interest. The Committee is further satisfied the shape and dimensions of the
resulting lots are adequate and the lots are suitable for the intended purposes.
In the opinion of the Committee, a plan of subdivision approved under section 36 of
The Planning Act is not required in this instance.
It is therefore, the decision of the Land Division Committee that consent be
GRANTED to Application Number 168.82.A, as amended upon fulfilment of the following
condit1 ons:
1. Payment of an Administrative Fee of $100.00, to the Town of Aurora:
2. Submission to the Secretary-Treasurer, of a fully executed deed, in
duplicate, conveying the subject land, as amended, only to the owner of lot
21, plan M-2012 to the south;
3. Submission to the Secretary-Treasurer, of three white prints of a deposited
Plan of Reference showing the subject land, which conforms substantially
with the application as amended;

The Committee respectfully submits the following:
A meeting of the Works Committee was held on Monday, August 23rd, 1982 at 7:00
p.m. in Committee Room No.1 at the Administrative Centre.
Present Were: Councillor T. Jones, Councillor E. Stewart, Councillor L. Ostick
and Town Superintendent Wm. Walker.
1. Letter No.14-6 (Blue Request For Entrance Culverts)
Works Department staff have installed an entrance culvert on the St. John's
Sideroad at Town expense being that said entrance replaces a former
recognized entrance abandoned with the reconstruction of the St. John's
Sideroad in the vicinity of the triple barrel pipe arch.
The second culvert must be purchased and installed to the Town's
satisfaction by the landowner being that the former access did not
constitute a recognized entrance in accordance with existing Town policy.
2. Letter No.14-27 (Rowat Request For Signing -Henderson Dr.)
The signing of Henderson Dr. as a "No Heavy Truck" route has been improved
with the relocation of a sign at the Yonge Street intersection which had
been partly obscured with the recent installation of a traffic signal
pole. The Committee would recommend that on street parking be monitored
following occupancy of the recently constructed townhouses and apartment
building on Henderson Dr. prior to Council considering the implementation
of parking restrictions.
3. Letter No.l4-162 (Petition -George Street Residents)
Prior to tendering, Council elected to retain overhead hydro servicing on
George Street for economic reasons. With the complete reconstruction of
George Street, concrete sidewalks, curb and gutter and a reasonably wide
boulevard area, will all assist in improving pedestrian safety. The
Committee would not recommend the construction of speed bumps but would
recommend that following the reconstruction of George Street, safety
related problems should be assessed prior to Council's consideration of
signing and speed limit changes.
