2. Declaration of Pecuniary Interest and the General Nature Thereof
3. Staff and Planning Consultant Presentation
Staff Memorandum D99025
M. Beatty, Co-ordinator of Planning and Deputy Clerk elaborated on Staff Memorandum
D99025. She reiterated that the proposed amendments to the official plan and zoning by-
law had been initiated by the Municipality and not a developer as it had been discovered
by staff that the subject lands were designated as Waterfront Mixed Use Development in
the Village of Port Burwell Official Plan and zoned as C2 Tourist Commercial with a
Holding Symbol which were approved in the late 1980's and early 1990's in order to
accommodate a multi-use harbourfront development that did not materialize.
Consequently, with the existing designations, land cannot be developed for any purpose
without extensive studies being undertaken. She reported that in accordance with the
provisions of the Planning Act,property owners were notified of the public meeting and a
notice had been published in the Aylmer Express and the Tillsonburg News.
COUNCIL MINUTES - 300 - December 16, 1999
6. PLANNING, DEVELOPMENT, RECREATION & TOURISM
(continued)
3. PUBLIC MEETING (continued)
3. Staff and Planning Consultant Presentation (continued)
G. Blazak, Cumming Cockburn Limited,planning consultant for the Municipality
stressed that although a decision of Council is required for any change in designation, a
decision does not have to be made at the public meeting. He urged all interested
residents to sign an attendance form located in the adjacent committee room so they may
be advised of any future meetings about the matter. He described the current official plan
and zoning designation and stated that the proposed amendments would lift the current
restrictions and allow low density residential development such as single family, semi
detached, duplex and seasonal and permit such uses as institutional and small scale
commercial. He added that the municipality is trying to prepare the land for development
by restoring flexibility and that Council wishes to receive input from the affected and
area residents before making any decisions.
4. Public Comments
1. David Stock, 34 Brock Street stated that he has owned his property since 1967 and was
interested in addressing the future of the park land only. He urged Council not to
consider dividing the parkland for future development but to maintain all of the existing
park land.
2. Rick Wassing, 29 Brock Street stated that the road in front his property is not properly
maintained and he is concerned that increased traffic in area will have deteriorate its
condition. Further, concern was expressed about the value of the property. He stated that
he believed the park property was donated to the Village in 1928.
3. John Wylie, 23 Brock Street urged Council to retain the existing park land as it provides
an unobstructed view of the lake.
4. Bob Klein, 32 Brock Street, resides in Kleinberg,Ontario and stated that Port Burwell
has some of the characteristics of Kleinberg with growth occurring in a unique fashion.
With regard to the existing park land, he stated no objection whatsoever to removing
restrictions on the top portion of the park. He stated that he noticed the diagram
contained in the notice only included"Waterlot A" and asked what the purpose for
"Waterlot B is". He also questioned why the Cenotaph had been moved as he thought the
land had been given to the Village specifically for the Cenotaph. He recommended that
the private property be strictly rezoned to single family residential as the area could be
very prestigious with high quality expensive dwellings. He questioned the need to
include small scale commercial uses as it would have a negative effect on the area. He
predicted that the land would become very valuable,but the dredging of the harbour is a
drawback in developing the area for tourism.
5. Tracey Davies, 21 Brock Street,Unit# 5 stated that the existing land use map indicates
most of the area is low density residential,whereas she counted 9 single family and 36
non single family uses. She doesn't think rezoning to residential is a good idea as only a
small corner of Hagerman and Brock Street would allow one or two houses at the most.
Unless the park was being developed, she didn't see the benefit. She stressed that the
area was designated for commercial water front mixed use development and didn't
believe that luxury homes would locate across from 21 Brock Street and Kingfisher
Cottages. She provided a written submission stating her concerns.

(continued)
3. PUBLIC MEETING (continued)
4. Public Comments (continued)
She read aloud the following letter on behalf of Frank Polyak, 21 Brock Street:
"This letter will serve to convey my wishes that the parkland on the south side of Brock
Street,Port Burwell, remain as parkland I oppose any changes to the existing
designation. You may contact me at my home should you require further information
regarding this matter. Frank Polyak, 21 Brock Street,Port Burwell, 874-1158. P.S. —
Further, I oppose any changes to zoning directly across from 21 Brock Street, as the
buildings at 21 Brock Street were built and eventually bought with the zoning
regulations on the south side of Brock Street as they were then, and as they are now. I
feel the zoning should remain the same in the future. Frank Polyak".
6. Alan Spicer of Port Burwell indicated that he was strongly opposed to allowing small sale
commercial uses in all residential areas as commercial should remain in the downtown
core. G. Blazak reiterated that any proposed commercial use would be considered on an
individual basis with a site specific rezoning required. Regard would be given to the
proposed use and its compatibility. Such uses could include offices for a doctor, lawyer,
accountant, etc.
7. Harry Cookson, 5 Erieus Street, stated that as his lot is large enough to create two parcels
through the severance process in the future,would he be permitted to pursue this given
the current designations. G. Blazak responded that all he could do is pursue the mixed
use waterfront tourist development. Given this,Mr. Cookson stated that he didn't think it
was fair that property owners can't build, but yet the 21 Brock Street development was
able to proceed.
8. Jim & Audrey Ross, 2 Robinson Street, stated that they own two cottages overlooking the
beach and there are approx. six cottages in the areas which aren't worth much,but land is
lakefront property and therefore he believed it was valuable land. He would like to have
the flexibility for 2-3 storey residential development. Development such as this is more
attractive than a lot of old cottages.
G. Blazak stressed that the proposed zoning would be "Proposed Development" and
therefore doesn't prescribe anything specific. Therefore, site specific rezoning would
still need to be sought by the property owner as individual plans would need to be put
forth.
9. Jeff Vyse, 10 Erieus Street stressed that existing parkland should be retained.
10. Carolyn Baker, 8 Robinson Street indicated that they would be opposed to any
development which would restrict the view to the lake.
11. Gerald Crocker,2 Brock Street spoke in favour of changing the current designation
which would allow him the flexibility of adding on to his home in the future.
12. Evelyn Coombe, on behalf of her sister, Elaine Becker, 10 Robinson Street, stressed that
they want the area properties to be designated for low density single family residential.
Their land has bee in the family for forty years for retirement purposes.
5. Council Comments and Questions
Councillor Mason referred to a comment from G. Blazak about the size of a small sale
commercial use being approximately 185 sq. m(1700 sq. ft)which seemed to him to be a
large area for a small business.
G. Blazak responded that would be about the size of a variety store. The key to
remember is that every proposal would be evaluated on an individual basis.

3. PUBLIC MEETING (continued)
S. Council Comments and Questions (continued)

He stressed that the maps before Council at the public meeting do not include the beach,
lake or the existing parkland on Brock Street.
