High Rise Task Force Survey
OMB Hearing Delayed!!
In December, the Developers asked the OMB for an adjournment (delay) in the proceedings to sort out their traffic experts. They also asked for OMB Mediation to discuss alternatives.
This has been granted by the OMB. What this means is that the earliest a Hearing could start (should the Developers choose to proceed with the Appeal) would be late Summer/Fall of 2009.
The Task Force is hoping to participate in the Mediation discussions but we may not be able too.
With all this in mind, we have extended the deadline for Survey Responses to March 31, 2009. If you have not sent in your Survey Response, please do so before this date.
To all those Residents who have responded, our heartfelt thanks go out to you.
UPDATE: October, 2008
We need your help. The Task Force has created a Survey which we would like interested residents from the Heart Lake Area (bounded by Bovaird, Hwy 410, Mayfield and Hurontario) to take part in our Survey. Your opinions will be represented by us at the OMB Hearings starting January 12, 2009. Please take a few minutes to read the survey and send us your response.
You can download a copy of the Survey with instructions here:
or you can pickup/drop off the Survey at these two Heart Lake Plaza Businesses: Vintners Exclusive Wines (West Side), Honey Brown Tanning Salon (East Side).
In order to maintaion our objectivity, we encourage you to download and read the latest Developers Response to the Planning Staff regarding the Refusal of the Application. Please take some time to read this and then fill out our Survey.
You can Download the file from the Friends of Heartlake Website at this link below:

Heart Lake High-Rise Task Force
In early 2008, we created a Volunteer group to look at the proposed High-Rise Development planned for Loafers Lake. Called "Citizens for Managed Development at Loafers Lake", great progress has been made to get more information on this proposal.
Check out their website at www.friendsofheartlake.ca for more information!
