SIt also recomnmendq '-'ivril ask the Ministry of Environmerit and Energy te, require Simtor, as a condition of approval, to pave the drivoway and parking areas of t heproerty before it issues a certýcate of approval for the site. Landacape architect Bruce Cosburn says Simtor plans te plant 223 eastern white cedar, 26 deciduous (a mix of maple, ash, aider and aspen) and 371decidi- ous shrubs as a buffer running from north te the south property boundary. The vgtation will, among ôther thinge, screen the building from residents te the east and control light from truck traffic after dark, according te a plan- ning department report. Planting would be done in two phases. Ai the trees and shrubs on the south haif of the propert would be planted this year, with the north haîf of the landscaping taking place in spring, 1995. Cosburn says only trees, shrubs and grass native te the aréa will be planted so they will quickly bienci in. Ho says the plants are «oextremely fast growing" and ostimates they will b. as high as a oarthen berm orignally con- siderod as a barrier between residents and the site after oniy oneyoar. A berm was rejected because of fears the fil would run off inte West Corbett Creek, which is close te, the property. Cosburn says the ýandscaping will do the sanie jobi while also protecting wetlands which alo would have been affected by the berm. Grassland aloo planned for the area will act as a filter te pro- vent contaminants from the site getting te the creek, much bet- ter thanan, pipe systeni we couid put in, Cosburn says. If council su pports the appro- val, Siniter wili be asked teenter ite a development agreement with the town and would be required te post a letter of credit intýhe amount of the cost of the landscaping. Michael Vaugha4~ a lawyer representing Pebblestone Multi- Services Imc., complained that Simtor's plan is not a site ,lan. "'A site plan of this so0 would have engineering specif!cations on it. (ThIs plan)-has a whole lot of landscapii specifications but there's, nothing there about faughan -was also upset that his client had te pont a $125,000 letter of credit as part of an agreement te, build its Went- worth Street plant. He argued it was unfair to give Sinitor, a competiter, an econo- mjc advantage by not requiring it te do the sanie. [B DRP(?
