This is one of those files that demands
more attention Councillor Cote (who owns a warehouse in area
and also works at seal cove aviation company) 1st brought to
Councils attention – the response was to revisit the ‘community plan’ for
area--- Now a secret meeting is deciding how much to
pay owner(s) of Apex Marine building (city owns the land) – we will use it to
shelter rock quarry equipment Area is
presumably ‘managed’ by Seal Cove committee appointed by city Council --- but
they might not have met in years – no one seems to know |
|
|
Lots of
potential in area |
|
There
was even discussion in previous plans to dredge the inlet and build a marina---
(this is opposed by aviation companies who want it to remain dedicated to float planes etc) But
there also seems to be good residential possibilities – as large areas of
undeveloped lands plus one of few areas remaining accessible to shoreline in
city (CN & Port have rest) |

Preliminary
Questions Who is
looking out for City interests?
|
Self
Management |
|
If
city owns the land – and different aviation companies etc own their buildings
– what were the conditions of original contracts? How
much rent are these businesses paying the city? How
often are the contracts re-negotiated? Who
does the committee (Seal Cove Society) report to |
