Moskalyk and Park Manager. - He reassured Council that nothing had changed in the operations of their lagoon. The failure was a wall slide and a rodent hole was exposed by it. There was a slight release of affluent for 24 hours; the affluent was tested and the results were good and under the required limits. - He presented a report and photos (taken Sept. 2010) and stated that the preliminary report from the engineer, Fred Pennerwas previously submitted. He read and submitted his letter detailing the failure and the actions taken. He stated that if they work on the inside of the cell then Environment will require them to follow the new rules and they will continue to be grandfathered. He requested that Council consider the engineer's report and the fix that entails using the RM's drain. They want to discuss the proposed repair and the possibility of cost sharing. - Reeve Forfar stated that this would have to be reviewed by staff and our engineer before Council can discuss this. - It was brought up that the current culvert installation for the ramp was not set properly and the drain is backing up and not working correctly. Mr. Moskalyk said that is a temporary situation and that a 36" culvert is needed. They are in currently releasing affluent and that will be completed tomorrow. The drain level will recede and the leaky pipe has been fixed and the cell will be dry.

2 - Administration questioned if the report has been approved by Conservation. Mr. Moskalyk stated that they were given an Order which had 4 or 5 requirements and the possibility of testing how the lagoon operates. This information was provided to Environment about a week ago and they have had no response yet. Mr. Moskalyk stated that Environment's decision will be based on what the RM decides. - Administration asked if Environment was happy with the suggested repair and the culvert problem will be fixed. A temporary repair to this point is about $5,000 and the recommended repair would cost about $25, Mr. Moskalyk inquired to Environment and was told the approval from the RM was required and that was all that they requested. - Administration stated that the house on the corner of Van Mol and Hwy 9 is for sale and asked that they try to work with the new owners to deal with their trees that are hanging over the road.

Clemons regarding Clemons Road culvert Earl Grey Road is having problems as the mud road is in bad shape. More material and maintenance is needed on mud roads. If something could be done as soon as it dries up, especially north of her property to Clandeboye Road and #8. In some places only 50' - 100' need work and others up to a quarter mile. The mud roads are graded once a year. When people drive on them with ATV's when they are wet it causes big ruts and they dry that way. She commented that last year the grader operator did a good job. Councillor Keryluk will look into it and try to get them done. Suggested in future more money could be included in the budget to grade mud roads. - They have an 80 acre parcel that borders Oak Hammock Marsh and it has no road access. They have been accessing it through Oak Hammock's grassland but they are no longer permitted to do this. Is the piece a municipal road allowance or does it belong to Oak Hammock?

There are also regulation set by Health Canada and they are compliant with them as well. He explained the type of signal emitted by the tower. - Dawn Vokey (20 Kimberly Place) - Inquired if the standards set the proximity for residential housing? The proximity to the towers is better than the proximity of a building with antenna on it. Industrial Canada has deemed them safe for people. Res. ( ) Moved by: Councillor Garvie Seconded by; Councillor Keryluk Whereas Applicants Telus and Owners Marc Gauvin & Linda Roels have made application for Conditional Use No for the premises described as Pt.

Applicant obtain all required permits from the Selkirk and District Planning Area Board. Variation Orders 1) Variation Order No Happy Planet Ent. - Jennifer Ferguson, Planner, summarized this application to allow the construction of a 14 suite apartment building. This variation is to allow for side yards of 7 ft. 10 in, a maximum mean height of 32.5 ft, off-site parking of 9 stalls and on-site parking of 10 stalls for the apartment building and Laundromat. Planning has a number of concerns with this application. There is the danger that the lot hosting the off-site parking could be sold and the parking would no longer be available. The side yard variance is an extreme as it is less than half the required set back and does not include take into account any projections such as stairs, eaves and overhang. This may also translate into drainage concerns. There is also the issue of waste water; municipal waste water servicing is in process and this application may be premature. Holding tanks would be needed and would have to be pumped out frequently. Planning felt that this was not an appropriate site for a building of this size, therefore approval is not recommended. A new design should be considered and the application should wait for the secondary plan and waste water servicing. - Al Barr (64 Stevens Ave. E.) - no comment. - Diane Derkach (36 Stevens Ave. E.) - Stated she had the same concerns as Planning and also concerned with the water table, safety and traffic congestion. Described past problem with the water table. Opposed to access off Stevens Avenue for this development. Felt that the housing

11 of Seniors' and single parent families was not a good mix. Asked that Council reject this application. - Earl Dyck (36 Stevens Ave. E.) - Does not feel there is a need for a multi-family dwelling and feels the property should have been zoned residential not commercial. - Tom Harkness (58 Stevens Ave. E.) - Opposed to the development and agrees with all already said. - Fred & Mavis Pebbles (61 Stevens Ave. E.) - Agree that a multi-family dwelling unit is not needed and are concerned with traffic, the height and don't feel it is an appropriate development for the area. - Michael McKay (59 Stevens Ave. E.) - Opposed. Although he can appreciate the investment but feels that a single family home would be okay but not an apartment building. Concerned over traffic, kids safety and waste water. Feels this development would cause decay in the neighbourhood. The residents are united against this development. He likes his privacy and he feels a location on Henderson Highway would be better. - Frances Grantham (59 Stevens Ave. E.) - Opposed. Agree with Michael, Diane and all that has been said. - Darryl Pohl (57 Stevens Ave. E.) - He agreed with all said. Did some research regarding the increase in crime and violence in neighbourhoods with multi family dwelling units. Listed stats and submitted a copy of them. The area is single family dwelling and if the RM's goal is to improve the neighbourhood and he feels that this would not improve it. Feels this development would bring a higher rate of crime to the area. He stated that if this development proceeds he will sell his property. He does appreciate the time and investment being considered for the area. - Terry Campbell (90 Stevens Ave. E.) - Opposed. Concerned over what a multi-family dwelling unit will do to his property value when it is right across the street. He agrees with all concerns already stated. The lot is too small. - Kim Pohl (57 Stevens Ave. E.) - Stated they had to follow the rules when they built and so should the developer. There are not enough amenities in the area for this development. Would also sell if this development proceeds. - Anthony & Amanda Standryk (88 Stevens Ave. E.) - Opposed. Concern over 1 year old son with the increased traffic and crime. Would move as well. - Michael McKay (59 Stevens Ave. E.) - This is a residential neighbourhood. Reiterated previously mentioned concerns. - D. Hodganson - DGH Engineering (12 Aviation Blvd.) - Speaking on behalf of the developer - Provided a summary of events leading to this public hearing. Stated they felt this was a modest development that needed some variances. Their client has an existing business in the community and wishes to add to the local economy and sustainability of the business community. They will consider the comments made tonight. The developer owns the property on either side of this development and so modest side yards were applied for. He recognizes the need to establish parking on the adjacent lot and they are willing to fulfill any requirements set by Council. The intention is to connect to sewer service when it is available. They are familiar with licensing a water well and thorough the licensing they will most likely be obliged to ensure other wells in the area are not affected. Traffic will only be for 13 suites not 50 or 100. They believe adding new residents to the area is a positive thing. - Sunil Bhatara ( Ave. Edmonton, AB/5374 Hwy 9) - Stated his appreciation of their comments. Explained that he had been approached by some Seniors' who wanted to stay in the area close to their families and needed a place to live. Property values decline and increases in crime do sometimes happen but he would screen the tenants.

12 - Discussion of the use of holding tanks, of 55 plus and single parent families and the apprehension from younger families in the area. - Diane Derkah (36 Stevens Ave. E.) - Submitted petition in opposition to this development. Stated Seniors have different needs from single parent families. Inquired if there would be a wheelchair ramp, wide doorways, common area for tenants, green space and child care there. There is no park, no playground, no public transit. The area needs stability and the structure will be an eyesore. - D. Hodganson - DGH Engineering (12 Aviation Blvd.) - The structure would be barrier free and have an elevator. The developer has expressed an interest in offering a period of free rent to local residents that may need some assistance. The developer commits to managing it in a community friendly way. - Sunil Bhatara ( Ave. Edmonton, AB/5374 Hwy 9) - Stated the engineer knows how to deal with the water table and disposal. He offered to put in a daycare instead of a Laundromat. Planning would have to check but a daycare may be permitted. - Comments regarding the developers other business, where he lives, amenities needed in the area and parking for the development. - It was stated that the property is zoned commercial and a multi-family unit is allowed and with the height variance within 10% of the requirement this application would not be necessary. - Some residents stated that they were not notified of this application. Planning stated that the developer did due diligence and met with the neighbours. Legislation requires that Planning post notice or send out by mail to properties within a 100 metres and Planning did both methods. The notices were mailed out May 16, Diane Derkah (36 Stevens Ave. E.) - Stated she went to all the houses and not one senior stated they wanted the apartment block. - Terry Campbell (90 Stevens Ave. E.) - Reiterated concern over parking and how the parking at the adjacent restaurant would be affected. - D. Hodganson - DGH Engineering (12 Aviation Blvd.) - Stated they would be willing to establish through caveats whatever Council may require to address this issue. Res.

( ) Moved by: Councillor Boch Seconded by: Councillor Ataman Whereas Applicant/Owner Glenn Evans has made application for Variation Order No for the premises described as Lot 5, Block 2, Plan 20867, 1 Thoma Drive, To vary from: To proposed: "RA" Suburban Residential Zone St. Andrews Zoning By-Law 4066 Accessory: front yard minimum 50 ft.

Now Therefore Be It Resolved that Variation Order No be hereby approved with the following conditions: 1) Applicant/Owner obtain a building permit for the accessory structure from the Selkirk and District Planning Area Board. 3) Variation Order Nos. 65 & Zaboqruski/Fetterly - Jennifer Ferguson, Planner, summarized these applications to vary site width. These variations are part of a conditional approval for a subdivision. Planning has no major concerns with these applications and approval is recommended. Res. ( ) Moved by: Councillor Boch Seconded by: Councillor Keryluk Whereas Applicant Dennis & Darlene Zabogruski and Owner Chad & Denise Fetterly have made application for Variation Order Nos. 65 & for the premises described as Pt. RL 128, Plan 2565, 5903 Highway #9, To vary from: To proposed: "RR" Rural Residential Zone St. Andrews Zoning By-Law 4066 Site width minimum 198 ft. Lot 1: site width minimum ft.

14 Subdivisions 1) Subdivision No. S Babaluk (Revised) - Jennifer Ferguson, Planner, summarized this request for revision to a condition of the subdivision conditional approval. This is to allow home construction traffic to use Kimberly Drive for access to the development. The public hearing notification process was followed as per the initial notice. If this revision is approved, it is recommended that a performance bond be taken for damage to Kimberly Place. - S. Babaluk - Developer - Stated she has 13 of 17 homeowners signatures supporting this revision. The other individuals have been spoken with but they have not indicated support or opposition to this. She recognizes the concerns of the Kimberly Place residents and suggests the damage deposit which is currently $2,000 be increased to $10,000 so funds are available if there are any damages. Comments that this amount would make the purchasers diligent with their contractors so that they would get their full refund. Submitted copies of letters of support. - Dawn Vokey-20 Kimberly Place-Supports this revision. When the conditions were originally set the discussions were more heated. She commented that if lot 3, which abuts the residual lot, was purchased and not developed for a while and then lots 1 and 2 we sold and wanted to build, lot 3 could refuse them access across their lot. She felt it was illogical to hold the developer to this condition. All sorts of trucks travel on Kimberly Place and if the road is damaged it gets fixed. You would have money deposited to repair the road if it is damaged. - It was commented that the residents are the ones monitoring the road for damage. It can be very difficult to determine who damaged the road. It was felt that not all three homes would be constructed at the same time and that would help to determine who damaged it. The by-law sets the damage deposit fee and we won't change the by-law for one development; the additional damage deposit would be something the developer would have to collect. Could the performance bond be part of the development agreement? How much would it have to be? - Planning stated that it is usually the developer who is responsible for maintenance and constructing the access road. It was suggested that the development agreement be registered against four lots. The performance bond could be in place until the houses are built or for a specific period but that would be up to Council to determine. - The construction time lines can be specified in the purchase agreement. - Discussion as to the amount of the performance bond ensued. Recess: 7:30 p.m. Reconvene: 7:46 p.m. - Explanation given as to the difference between the warranty and the performance bond. - Dr. Stutsky commented that she did not want her tax dollars spent on road repairs caused by this development. It was stated that a reasonable amount would be set to have enough money on hand so the RM does not have to use tax dollars to pay for it.

15 Res. ( ) Moved by: Councillor Ataman Seconded by: Councillor Keryluk Resolved that Proposed Subdivision No. S (Babaluk- Revised) be hereby approved by Council with the following conditions, with condition #8 being added: 1) Applicant/Owner submits confirmation in writing from the Chief Administrative Officer of the R.M. of St. Andrews that: a) Taxes on the land to be subdivided for the current year plus any arrears have been paid or arrangements satisfactory to Council have been made; b) Capital development fees to be paid. 2) Manitoba Land Surveyor prepares a multi-lot plan of subdivision, including lot area and width calculations and confirmation that Crown Land is not involved in the proposal; mortgages and caveats to be amended/discharged. 3) Applicant/Owner enters into a development agreement with the R.M. of St. Andrews to address issues including, but not limited to, waste water disposal, holding tank only, obligation to sewer and water hook-up when available, flood mitigation and bank stability and erosion control measures, 100' area of protected riparian habitat along the river bank, construction access, and building location and restrictions, in addition to performance bonds of $10, per lot including the residual. 4) Applicant/Owner submits confirmation of geotechnical engineering information on established flood protection levels and river bank stability for this area having been reviewed and approved by Manitoba Water Stewardship and the municipal engineer. 5) Applicant/Owner submits a detailed engineered drainage and lot grading plan for review and approval by Manitoba Water Stewardship and the municipal engineer. 6) Applicant/Owner successfully obtains Water Right's License. The contact person is Geoff Reimer at (204) ) Applicant/Owner to obtain, if required: a) Joint easement agreement for existing and/or future Hydro and MTS facilities association with the subdivision; b) Plan of easement prepared by a Manitoba Land Surveyor as required by the Real Property Act. 8) Applicant/owner ensures that all construction traffic for land development enters through existing River Road access.

16 2) Subdivision No. S Yakieleshak/Hart - Jennifer Ferguson, Planner, summarized this application to subdivide a 4 acre yard site from a 36 acre holding. There are two existing residences on one title.
