Subject:Re: April l6th Council Delegation Request

Thank you Hazel.

I do not have a powerpoint presentation.

A s¡mopsis as requested:

I would like to speak briefly to concerns that have not been adequately addressed through planning staff and Committee with regard to the 10 Windward Drive development and applicable processes.

As Council is the final approving authority, it is timely to bring these concerns to its attention for consideration prior to approval of the site plan application.

Please let me know if this meets your needs. I expect to only need a few minutes.

Regards, Dorothy

Committee of Adjustment April 3, 2018 b) A-06/18 CANNOLEUM INC 194 Woolverton Road Grimsby ON L3M 4E7

The Committee then considered Submission A-06/18 by Cannoleum Inc. to allow a medical marihuana facility with a southerly sideyard setback of 51.4 metres in a Specialty Crop (SC) Zone at 194 Woolverton Road Grimsby.

Correspondence was received from: Town Planning Department - Request conditions.

Mr. Jarod Marcus of IBI Group, Planner for the owner appeared before the Committee to support the application and outlined for the Committee that the operation is to reuse an existing building used as a printing plant. They propose to install a new septic system to service the building. The requested variance is based on setbacks from adjacent lot lines for properties used for residential purposes. The road allowance appears to belong to the adjacent southerly property and therefore they would request that the application be amended to a setback of 31 metres rather than the requested 51.4 metres. There will be no construction as they proposed to only occupy the existing 26000 square foot building.

Mr. Steven Verbeek of Cannoleum Inc. stated that they have to abide to very strict Health Canada criteria and will not grow plants to a flowering stage as this will be a genetic research lab. The plants will not flower and will not produce the odour associated with grow operations and as a result, the plants do not have any street value reducing the attraction for theft and crime.

Mr. Andrew Van Geest, speaking on behalf of the southerly property owners on Woolverton Road questioned whether this could be converted to a full scale growing operation as the industry is changing rapidly.

Page 41 of 51 Page 4 of 6 Agenda item a)

Mayor Bob Bentley Town of Grimsby 16 Rodney Avenue Grimsby, ON L3M 2K5

Dear Mayor Bentley:

On April 28th, the Niagara Regional Labour Council will observe the National Day of Mourning to remember those who have suffered and died on the job. As we remember those who have died in workplace catastrophes, those who have been exposed to toxic substances and those who have been injured due to dangerous work conditions, we rededicate ourselves to fight for safe workplaces.

Therefore, as we approach April 28th, we are requesting that City Council consider and issue a Proclamation with respect to the “National Day of Mourning”. Also, we also invite you, your council and staff to attend The Niagara Regional Day of Mourning Ceremony being held at the Niagara Region Headquarters, 1815 Sir Isacc Brock Way, Thorold at 5:15 p.m.

We are also requesting that all flags be flown at HALF-MAST at City Hall on the 28th. As we remember those who have been injured and killed, we must renew our fight for the living and we must organize and mobilize for safe jobs.

Please share this information widely since this is a public event.

I, along with the rest of the Niagara Regional Labour Council look forward to your response.

Thanking you in advance.

Lou Ann Binning President Niagara Regional Labour Council [email protected]
