Ruddy, president of the hospital 'Hinder Development Of Site WHITBY (Staff) Whitby Town Council will not interfere with the question of a proposed apartment development on the site of the former Whitby Mal- leable Iron Co., plant, it was decided at the Monday council meeting. The decision was made despite a letter from the Whit- by Chamber of Commerce sug- gesting that goodwill and a give-and-take policy could ex- pediate the subject. The letter indicated that Key Investments Ltd., of Toronto, had requested assistance from the chamber in order that a de- cision on the proposed develop- ment of an apartment building could be resolved. The develop- ers had appeared before council and planning board on. different occasions yet no firm decision had been made. BENT OVER BACKWARD Speaking in opposition to the request from the chamber, Dep- uty-Reeve George Brooks sug- gested council and planning board had bent over backwards for the development, "We are zoning bylaw in the garbage can, however,"' he advised Mr. Brooks further explained the development had originally called for a 10-storey building and had since been revised to nine-storeys but with the same number of apartment units "The first phase of this pro- posal violated almost every zon- ing regulation in the town," Mr. Brooks charged. "The second, and revised proposal still had about nine things wrong with it," he added "We are constantly being ask- ed for twice as much as the zon- ing restrictions allow," Mr. Brooks said. "If we limit the buildings to five storeys then developers ask for eight. If we limit the units to 40 they ask for 80," he added MUCH DISCUSSION Mr. Brooks said there appear- ed to be a feeling that nothing had been done to help the de- velopers. "'Many hours of hard work and discussion has gone into an attempt to reach some equitable agreement on this not prepared to throw our new question," Mr. Brooks said.
