Council ééid “it \vafiid send a copy of the adopted report to all the parties concerned. The latter was submitted by Hester Court residents who ob- jected to the walkway becom- ing a route for school children. Carman Woods, president of the Condominium Corporation, said the only thing stopping a right of way between the cor- poration and the centre was the petition. The report also recommend- ed that the town assume owner- ship of the walkway and be responsible for its maintenance, but that the condominium as- sociation obtain easement from the adjoining shopping centre in order to connect the walkway with the townhouse lands. Council adopted the recom- mendations of the engineer and planning director that the walkway, which would provide access from the condominiums to the park and school site west of Baymark Roadâ€"thus avoid- ing Bayview Avenue and Dun- ‘sinane Driveâ€"be paved by the developer as stipulated in the subdivision agreement. Group Asks Dismissal 0f Walkway Petition A group of condominium owners, who appeared before Markham Town Council Wed- nesday of last week to ask that a petition to close a walkway on Hester Court in Thornhill be dismissed, was told by council it couldn‘t dismiss the petition. But it did do the next best thing. The proportion of one bed- room units is to be decreased from 69% to 15%; the percent- age of two bedroom units to be increased from 15.5% to 35%; and the proportion of three bedroom units from 15% to 50%. The resulting population would be as high as 35% greater than in the original proposal. To learn about activities for Mondays to Wednesdays, it is necessary to call the Markham Parks and Recreation Depart- ment at 297-1900. Town of Mai‘kham, free of charge: for young people. The proposal was presented by a representative from Jorn Neilson Consultants, who claim- ed that the unique character of the site justifies using it for a maximum number of people. The revised plan retains the original number of dwelling units, 149 (at 60 units per acre) but proposes an additional storey. In 1970 Markham Township Bylaw 2570 removed the hold- ing category on this property and a site plan agreement for a lZ-storey apartment building was approved. However, the project was not started becauSe‘ of problems with mortgage fin- ancing. The property is located im- mediately south of the Toronto Ladies Golf Club and north of the Ring Funeral Home and is zoned RM 3. A revised plan for an apart- ment building at 7795 Yonge Street will be studied by Mark- ham’s Planning Department and a recommendation brought back to the planning committee at a later date, the committee de- cided at its July 20 meeting.
