Bratty and Partners, Barrister? __ ac~ci. Solicitors re: _ _Proposed extension of
Kennedv Street West; and
L. Allison, Deputy Clerk, memo to r~ayor and Members of Council re: Kennedy
Street West Cosf.sliai'_:i!i_9_Ag_reement ··· · ·
Mr. Gary Templeton, a Planning Consultant repr·esenting several owners
processing draft plans of subdivision on Kennedy Street West addressed
Members of Council on behalf of all seven of the landowners involved in the
plan processing in this area. It was requested that Council give favorable
consideration to three matters which would expedite the approvals required
to allow the developments to move forward and allow for the street
reconstruction to proceed at an early date.
The obligations of the Town as proposed within a comprehensive cost sharing
agreement which had been drafted and executed by the developers' group were
returned. It was requested that Council approve the agreement as presently
proposed and the authorization be given for the document's execution.
A request was made for Council to give early approval to the Zoning By-laws
affecting the property, thereby allowing the objection periods to run
concurrently with draft approval processing. It was submitted that
combining these time periods would hasten an O.M.B. hearing should one be
necessary, and would speed up the time when the group would be in a position
to proceed with the Kennedy Street West works.
The final request was for the alteration to the Town's standard policy for
requiring full security for the lot levies due prior to the recommendation
for draft approval being forwarded to the Region of York. An exception in
the same vein as the policy adapted for the Stolp Homes subdivision was
requested which would see 25% of the security provided prior to the draft
approva 1 recommendation proceeding, a further 25% provided at the time of
the zoning coming into force and the full payment of the levies due made at
the time of the subdivision agreement execution.
