on Tuesday September 4th, 2012
As you may or may not be awa re; a plan has been presented for
the development of the property at the north-west corner of
Glenbourne D,rive and Benso n Avenue (behind t he Cinep lex theatre
in north-east Oshawa) . The plans include 2 eight storey rental
apartment buildings consisting of 144 2-bedr oom units. The main
access driveway into the property w ill be opposite #1156 and #1160
Glenbourne Drive.
This development ra ises some serious concerns for our small
neighborhood. Firstly, th is will have an impact on our property
values. Second ly, eight storeys wil l be an anoma ly and will not
fit in with t he landscape of the neighborhood. Thi rd ly, traffic
will be an issue along Glenbourne as the only entrance to t he comp
lex will be opposite the homes at 1156 and 1160 Glenbourne. Traffic
and street parking from the Cinep lex theatre and soccer field in
Glenbourne Park are already problemat ic .
Cou ncillor John Aker is well aware of our concerns and wil l
put forth a motion at Tuesday's Council meeting to allow us to be
heard . A small group of residents have been canvassing our
neighbor hood and adjacent neighborhoods to inform them of the
development pr oject and garnering support for solidarity against
th is development. It ha s also come to light that this same deve
loper (Valient) t en year s ago attempted t his exact same proj ect
on this same piece of property and wer e defeated by residents
.
We request that you support Mr. Aker's motion to allow our voice
to be heard.
Yours Truly, Neighborhood Residents
