DELEGATIONS
Kathryn A. O'Dwyer, Aurora on behalf of Wethersfield Court Residents
Ms. Kathryn O'Dwyer, representing the residents of Wethersfield Court,
expressed to Council the residents' concern regarding the continued use of
the access to Bathurst Street through the end of the street. It was
indicated that the residents were of the opinion that Council failed to
address the safety concerns expressed by the residents at their previous
presentation made on July 29th. Concern was expressed about the undefined
date for the extension of Kennedy Street West through the Saccuchi 1 ands.
It was requested that the Town consider expropriation of the required road
allowance to place the access in the designated location thereby allowing
closure of the temporary route through Wethersfield Court.

G. Brian Coutts, Aurora re: Prooosed Official Plan Amendment No. 36
Aurora South Area
Mr. Coutts appeared before Council to formally present the objections of a
group of residents residing on the west side of Yonge Street south of the
CNR railway respecting Amendment No. 36 to the Official Plan of the Town of
Aurora. The objections as cited by the residents centred around the
proposed designation of the Estate-Residential Study Area south of the
railway and the proposed designation of the rural corridor along the Yonge
Street frontages of the properties south of the railway to the Pine Ridge
lands. Mr. Coutts stated that the Estate-Residential Study Area lands were
suitable for higher density development. Concern was expressed about the
potential loss in property values through the imposition of the rural
corridor which would have the effect of creating a "buffer zone" along Yonge
Street. The residents indicated their willingness to meet with the Town to
resolve the objections prior to the matter proceeding to an Ontario
Municipal Board hearing.
