ITEM III

Re: Servicing Requirements for the
Huntington Rubber Property

The old Huntington Rubber property is to be subdivided
into an industrial subdivision. Davies Avenue is the only
access to this subdivision from the arterial street system.
Under normal circumstances, the developer would be required to
reconstruct Davies Avenue to full width and complete both sides
of the road, particularly since the other side is residential
and that this subdivision will bring in a great deal of truck
traffic.

The developer has requested consideration of the
reduction of this requirement to elminate the completion of
the north side of Davies Avenue as he has some other special
problems in servicing the lots.

The Committee recommends that the developer be required

to complete Davies Avenue to the full standards to match up with
the section of Davics Avenue between Seymour Street and Hastings
Street which has already been completed to full standards.

ITEM IV

Re: Drainage Problem at Leurier Avenue

Alderman Keryluk nad requested that the Committee
look at the runoff from new lots being constructed on Laurier
Avenue onto existing properties which front on Dorset Avenue.
The ground is flat in this area and the eventual drainage from
the private properties, when these are compkted, would depend
on the final grading and also the landscaping. ‘There is no
failure on the part of the City to provide drainage as both
streets have storm sewers and therefore any drainage disputes
are between private homeowners. It would be impossible for
the City to control this type of runoff. For example, if the
established homeowners had landscaped their property so that
their water flowed towards the rear of their lot, then the new
homeowners would have a complaint.
