8. COMMUNITY FORUM
Chuck Wickson -speaking to Item 1102
Mr. Wickson expressed concern that increased traffic from the proposed townhouse
complex during and after construction will damage the driveway and homes of the
existing strata complex. He also expressed concern that units in the proposed
complex may be rental units and that the proposed design of the development is not
compatible with existing townhouses.
Henny Bouwhuis -speaking to Item 1102
Mr. Bouwhuis expressed concern over the negative impacts of increased traffic on
the existing driveway through the complex, citing that the driveway was meant to
allow connection to a single family home and was not built to withstand the traffic
coming from a multi-family complex. He was also expressed concern over the impact
of heavy truck traffic on the existing complex and driveway during the construction
phase of the project. He also questioned the storage of materials in the yard of the
proposed development.
Keith Henrey -speaking to Item 1102
Mr. Henrey echoed points raised by other speakers. He spoke to the steepness of
the road and the impact of large trucks using the driveway and leaving behind mud
and materials from a construction site. He stressed the existing strata pays for the
maintenance of the driveway connecting the two properties and expressed concern
that the developer of the proposed site has not indicated they will share
responsibility for the road. He indicated that materials are presently being stored on
the proposed development and questioned whether this was legal.
