Information on approximate densities and unit projections will be provided for all of the options presented at the last meeting in November. The December meeting will provide an opportunity for the community to view the top two preferred options, provide input and vote between the first preferred option and second preferred option. The final preferred community option will be posted on the City’s brow lands webpage following the meeting.

For your protection please do not post personal information (address, phone number, etc…) on this website. Use the email link to cast your vote.(email:Kirsten McCauley)

(Information below is from the City Of Hamilton Website)

If you were unable to attend the Chedoke Brow Lands Public Information Centre #3 and you would like to vote on the different community development options, you may vote by doing the following:

1. Send an email to Kirsten McCauley with your name, address and first Preferred Option and second Preferred Option choices indicated (please note that if your name and address are not provided your vote will not count).
2. If you wish, you may also fill out a comment sheet providing rationale for your choice.

Option #1 – No Development
This option means that no new development occurs on the brow lands. This is the standard ?Do Nothing? option.

Option #2 – Limited Development
This option contemplates minimal development by removing the existing Continuing Care Centre, Annex, East Pavillion and Mooreland Building and constructing single detached dwellings in this area. Single detached dwellings are also proposed between the stormwater management facility and Sanatorium Road. This option preserves the maximum amount of green space with the least amount of development.

Option #3 – Medium-Low Development
This option contemplates moderate development around the Continuing Care Centre and Mooreland Building and proposes to preserve the existing buildings where appropriate and feasible. Low rise buildings at a maximum of 4 storeys with a green courtyard are envisioned for this area. Two blocks of row housing (street townhouses) are proposed to the east and west of Sanatorium Road north of Scenic Drive. A low-rise building is proposed in proximity to the Long and Bisby building. Green space is proposed along the majority of Scenic Drive as a buffer to the interior development.

Option #4 – Mixed-Use Medium Development
This option contemplates a mix of ?community wellness? uses with residential uses. The Continuing Care Facility should be preserved as a public mixed use building (such as an art gallery or community centre) with low rise (4 storey) mixed-use buildings proposed in the area south of the Continuing Care Centre. Single detached dwellings are proposed fronting along Scenic Drive with rear access lanes. Green space buffers the low rise buildings from the single detached dwellings. Townhouses are proposed west and east Sanatorium Road north of Scenic Drive with green space proposed in this area.

Option #5 – Most Development

This option contemplates the highest level of development. This option proposes to retain the Continuing Care Centre and develop mid rise 6 storey terraced residential buildings to the south in the central area of the existing buildings. This area has no mixed use proposed and will require parking in buildings or screened from roads. A 6 storey mid rise building is also proposed adjacent to the Long and Bisby building with two low rise buildings at the west and east corners of the intersection of Scenic Drive and Sanatorium Road (3 storey along Scenic Drive with an additional storey stepped up). Townhouses are proposed to the west fronting on Scenic Drive with rear lane access. Green space is proposed south of the woodlot and to the west of the stormwater management facility.

Chedoke Brow Lands – Community Development Options

The purpose of Public Information Centre #3 is to present various options for the community?s vision for the Chedoke Brow Lands. These options have been developed from the input/ideas provided at the last meeting, through review of the plans and comment sheets and through the assistance of the volunteer sub-committee. Common themes have been identified and incorporated into the community options for the Brow Lands. City staff, with the assistance of sub-committee representatives, will present the different development options to the group.

Following the presentation, individuals will be given the opportunity to vote on their 1st Preferred Option and their 2nd Preferred Option for the Chedoke Brow Lands. Staff will total the votes and present the preferred community option for community review at the final Public Information Centre on December 13, 2007.
