b)
Closing of Road Allowance - Part of Lot 18, Concession VIII, Storrington Atkins Lane Lindsay Mills reviewed the background to the original request to close the road allowance. During that time, Lori Greenwood, the property owner abutting the orphaned piece on the south was not made aware of the closure as the original advertisement did not fully identify the orphaned piece that abuts her property. The Planning Department then re-advertised the closure and sale including the orphaned piece to give Ms. Greenwood the opportunity to comment. Mr. Mills noted Council’s policy to not close road allowances leading to water however in this case it does not lead to water, it only parallels the shoreline at an average distance of 28 metres. He explained that as part of this road closure and transfer, the access to Ms. Greenwood’s land must be maintained. This access will still be provided over Part 2 of the previous survey and Part 4 of the new survey. Councillor Revill sought clarification of the access to Ms. Greenwood’s
