meetings to discuss the solandt com missions high voltage hydro line and listen to low voltage election speeches of york simcoe federal candidates perhaps these electrical and elec toral debates took the spark out of van- dorfians for at the beginning of a public meeting nov 2 to discuss zoning changes they were slow to warm up gordon brush regional planning consultant explained the zoning proposals to redesignate 39 rural acres on the south east corner of don mills and aurora side roads to industrial along with 18 acres north from and in cluding the old vandorf school site when there was no reaction from the audience at this point jobst gellert vice president of mold masters ltd a firm which wishes to locate on the aurora road site unfolded plans for his factory which manufactures light bulk plastic com ponents he said the plant would be built in a 3v4 acre park with swimming poo for employees he also explained the recycling and water cooling system which would be used this precipitated questions on less aesthetic features towers on roof storage silos shipping and receiving entrances charles warden whose residence is in this redesignated section objected to the rezoning to the south and commented on anticipated industrial growth there are only a certain number of people interested in locating in this area he said i have been here 6 years and they are not coming out of the woodwork discussion moved to the former vandorf school which had been purchased from york county board of education by fj storimans a manufacturer who wished to locate there and had applied for a spot zoning change lawrence hen nessey wanted to know if the purchase of the school had been conditional on an amendment to the zoning bylaw mr storimans assured him the deal had been finalized and added that council had warned him often that the zoning might not go through he described his plant which manufactures special tools as a 8 am to 430 pm operation noiseless and smokeless a next door neigh bor with her own idea of priorities asked would you cut the grass definitely she was assured concern that the general appelation industrial might conjure up visions of smoke stacks and unsightly storage areas prompted mayor ken laushway to explain that a change in zoning would not mean that any manufacturing plant would be acceptable he said there would be rigid controls and restrictions each application that comes in must have a site plan agreement and it- must satisfy council and the people around mrs ruth warden indicated that she had already raised ob jections to zoning changes at a july 6 meeting and had registered them with the ontario municipal board we have been invited here she added but i dont get the feeling we are being listened to ex cept out of courtesy chairman of whitchurch stouff- ville planning com- m i t tee tom lonergan disagreed and assured her the omb would cer tainly consider the objections as would the committee the audience was invited to send in
