6(a) Public Hearing - Zoning By-law Amendment
to Re-zone 475 Latimore Lake Road
The Common Clerk advised that the necessary advertising was
completed with regard to the proposed re-zoning of a parcel of land located at
475 Latimore Lake Road, having a total area of approximately 40 hectares, also
identified as being portions of PID Numbers 335034,327106, and 421727, from "RS-1M"

recommending that Council re-zone an area of land as described above, from "RS-1 M"

COMMON COUNCIUREUNION DU CONS ElL MUNICIPAL
SEPTEMBER 22, 2003/LE 22 sEPTEMBRE 2003
Family Suburban Residential to "PQ" Pits and Quarries in the manner illustrated on the
submitted plan.
The Mayor called for members of the public to speak against the re-
zoning with the following presenting with the use of slides.
Gordon Dalzell, 32 Dorothea Drive, also representing Saint John Citizens
Coalition for Clean Air, referred to increased adverse effect to the environment from
truck emissions if the re-zoning were to be approved.
Terry Gray, 19 Nicolle Road, objected to the noise and odor caused by
the activity of gravel pits in the area and noted that the ability for residents of the area in
question to enjoy their neighbourhood would be further diminished with additional activity
in the area. He also made reference to the road shoulders which are not wide enough to
adequately accommodate trucks, presenting a safety issue.
Odette McGrath, 31 Lackie Road, spoke of the inadequate air filtration
because of clear cutting, failure to rehabilitate former pits, and the decrease in the value
of homes in the area due to the existence of pits.
Margaret Dube, 1330 Grandview Avenue, expressed her concern for the
wetlands and fish habitat in the area should the re-zoning be approved.
Stewart Jamieson, MLA for Saint John Fundy advised Council that he had
heard the concerns of the citizens in this area saying that they were asking for one pit to
be closed and rehabilitated before the opening of another and asked Council not to
approve the re-zoning.
The Mayor called for members of the public to speak in favor of the re-
zoning with the following presenting:
Stephen Langille commented that at present there is a decrease in the
number of trucks hauling from the Latimore Lake area, as most of the aggregate is
transported from outside the City via Loch Lomond Road. He explained that Fundy Bay
Holdings is 100% owned by his father and that Fundy Bay Sand and Gravel Inc. is
owned by his brother and himself and their wives. He introduced several truck drivers
who will gain employment with the re-zoning in question. He also noted that all the
requirements and conditions listed in the Planning Advisory Report are met.
David Boudreau, an employee of Fundy Bay Sand and Gravel assured
Council that the truck drivers employed by that firm receive safety training, obey the
speed limit and are safe drivers. He stated that he is proud to be an employee of the firm
and that the truck drivers need the employment which will be provided with the re-
zoning.
Mr. Baird responded to several questions from Councillors, noting that all
the criteria for Pits and Quarries are being adhered to in this instance; adding that there
are additional conditions that Council could impose to enhance the situation, citing the
marking of trucks in order that they be easily identifiable as an example. He also advised
Council that if an operation violates the terms and conditions of the re-zoning
agreement, that the zoning can be reverted.
On motion of Councillor Trites
Seconded by Councillor Ball
RESOLVED that the By-law entitled, "By-law
Number C.P. 100-632, A By-law To Amend The Zoning By-law Of The City Of Saint
John" by re-zoning an area of land located at 475 Latimore Lake Road, (being portions

Odette McGrath, residant au 31, chemin Lackie, adresse les problemes

Margaret Dube, residant au 1330, avenue Grandview, exprime ses
