Delegations

(1)

Rob Morgan

Rob Morgan and his consultant, Doug Princeton, reviewed the background of the development project. More specifically with regard to the valuation of the property for parkland purposes, they indicated they had a preliminary realtor evaluation at $105,000;

an appraisal done at $404,000; that they had purchased the original property at $295,000. They are concerned that $404,000 was too high and yet they acknowledged that $105,000 was perhaps too low.

Council’s questions were answered. (ii) Shelley Lacelle

r

Shelley Lacelle indicated that she had spent approximately $15,000 so far toward creating a separate lot. They were optimistic that they were not going to need to drill a well because there would be a water connection. However the curb stop’s location is not practical to install water. She has had an estimate provided that is well in excess of $25,000. While she would prefer to hook up to the system, the ideal alternative would be for an additional line to be run under Rutledge Road to create a new curb stop on the north side of the road.

Council asked that the Public Works Manager investigate both the location of curb stops and alternatives as well as obtaining some pricing. 6. Business Items

Lindsay Mills, Planning Coordinator, re Rob Morgan, Subdivision - Parkland
