12(a). Public Hearing - Zoning By-law Amendment - 2420 Loch Lomond 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 2420
Loch Lomond Road being PID Number 00329102, from "RS-1" One and Two Family
Suburban Residential to "RR" One Family Rural Residential to undertake a rural
residential subdivision consisting of new public roads and unserviced lots as requested
by Hughes Surveys & Consultants Inc. on behalf of Clovis J. Hachey, Linda M. Hachey
and Bernice F. Hachey.
(b). Report from Planning Advisory Committee
Consideration was given to a report from the Planning Advisory
Committee submitting a copy of Planning staff's report considered at its June 1, 2004
meeting at which the Committee decided to recommend approval of the proposal as set
out in the staff recommendation; and recommending that Common Council:
1. re-zone a parcel of land located at 2420 Loch Lomond Road, having a total area
of approximately 5.7 hectares, also identified as being PID Number 00329102,
from "RS-1" One and Two Family Suburban Residential to "RR" One Family
Rural Residential, and
2. not give third reading to the re-zoning until confirmation is received from N.B.
Departments of Public Health Services and Environment that the proposed
subdivision is acceptable with regards to private on-site services.
The Mayor called for members of the public to speak against the re-
zoning with Bill Gould advising that he is not opposed to the re-zoning but objects to the
use of a temporary access road, and speaking on behalf of his mother-in-law, Mrs.
Ratcliffe who owns property at 2426 Loch Lomond Road which is adjacent to the
property in question. Mr. Gould advised Council that Mrs. Ratcliffe is a long-time resident
and has had problems with her basement flooding in the past and he is concerned that
the use of a temporary access road in conjunction with the subdivision development
would cause flooding in his mother-in-Iaw's property. Mr. Gould submitted a petition to
Council from residents opposing the temporary access road.
Mr. Barry Ratcliffe, Mrs. Ratcliffe's son confirmed the concerns described
by Mr. Gould.
The Mayor called for members of the public to speak in favour of the re-
zoning with Rick Turner of Hughes Surveys & Consultants Inc. advising Council that
further investigation has been done on the possibility of using an existing road as
opposed to constructing a temporary one, and it has been determined that a temporary
access road will not be used in this case.

M. Baird affirme qu'une demande relative a la modification des conditions

Le maire invite les membres du public a venir s'exprimer en faveur du
