Labatt development and to allow for the extension of the Iron Horse Trail north along the west side of the street The city also plans to buy some more land from Hallman along Park Street to develop a 1/4â€"acre park along the street‘s east side, immediately southâ€" east â€" of a _ new _ Park Streeviextended Norman Street intersection "For years, weve acknowlâ€" edged that we‘ve had a parkâ€" land deficiency in this area «I uptown, so this parkland will certainly fulfil that need Romanick said. Council passed a recommenâ€" dation that the city spend $197,000 from its capital reserve fund in arder to purâ€" chase the desited land from Hallman‘s. Hallman said after the meetâ€" ing his company already had an agreement with Labatts to buy the land, contingent on Hallman‘s being able to secure building permits from the city prior to June 24 When asked why his comâ€" pany had decided to take on the townhouse project, Hallâ€" man said part of the reason was Hallman‘s was already building the new Terrace in the Square returement home immediately to the northeast of the proâ€" posed development. "And the opportunity preâ€" sented itself as a challenge, and being a land development busiâ€" ness, that‘s our dayâ€"toâ€"day business," he said. As for the townhouses themâ€" selves, Hallman said they would be "freehold" townâ€" houses and would likely be a mixture of bungalow and twoâ€" storey homes. A new 18â€"space parking lot would also be conâ€" structed at the corner of William Street West and Caroâ€" line Street to likely exclusively be used by residents of Hallâ€" man‘s nearby future retirement home. "We‘ll be targeting either people who are young profesâ€" sionals or people who ate perâ€" haps moving down the market place from bigger homes and want to be close to uptown Waterloo," Hallman said He also said the eventual population of the entire develâ€" opment would probably be between 60 to 80 people and that the townhouses would likely sell for between $150,000 and the high $160,000 range Romanick said because the land was already zoned as medium density two‘. which allows for the construction of townhouses, no changes to the city‘s official plan or zoning bylaw would be necessary However he said because Hallâ€" mans wants to avord paying wity and regional development charges, which will have to be parid on the property atter this June 24 the caity was expeditâ€" ing its development approval process and no publi: meet ings would be held regarding Because the property used to contain former development both the region and city allow development charge crediuts if a property is redeveloped within the project Bill 105 has provided that Regional Council will make a citizen‘s appointâ€" ment to the Waterloo Regional Police Services Board.
