Applicant’s Comments:

The applicant was available to respond to questions.

Written Submissions:

(a)

Peter Ng, 6300 Birch Street (Schedule 28)

Submissions from the floor:

Rose and Fred Carron, 9820 Alberta Road, expressed concern that there was no attempt on the part of the owner to purchase their property which is immediately to the west of the development, until July 17, 2010 even though the property was listed for sale for six months prior to April 30, 2009.  They were concerned this development would “orphan” their lot, making it impossible to sell or develop.

Alice Chu, owner of the subject property, accompanied by Peter Chan, advised that discussions had taken place with Mrs. Carron regarding development of the properties, however developers and investors had indicated the asking price for 9820 Alberta Road was too high.  Ms. Chu indicated her builder has agreed to Mr. Carron’s request for a shared driveway, a retaining wall, and a good drainage system.

Mr. Jackson confirmed there is a cross access agreement in place and the proposed project presents the most efficient way to deal with the future development of both lots.
