<DIV>Hi folks</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Being a participant at the OMB is fairly easy . </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>1. Show up the first day of the hearing, Monday 11am at Waterloo
Council Chambers and simply state you'd like to be a participant.
That part is manditory.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>2. If you wish to voice concerns personal appearances are
preferred because it allows others to ask questions but written comments
are acceptable too. Unlike party members, participants don't even have
to attend the hearings after registration. The chair will inform
you when it is time to present your concerns if you wish to present in
person. Normally it's on the last day of the hearing. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The only condition set is that the issues are relevant to the
issues of the current appeal.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>3. The chair may ask you to provide a particpant statement. That's
just a document with your name, contact info and a brief write up about
who you are or what group you work with, your expertise or simply a
statement as to why your interested in the matter at hand. </DIV>
<DIV>Mention what issue you'd like to address and provide a
brief comment on what your views are. It's basically like a
council speech process.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The topics I know are being addressed involve the developers
seeking changes to the migratory bird act restricting construction
activy from May 1st to July 15. Apparently the city and regional times
vary so clairity is needed as to which one applies. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>The developers are also seeking changes because Wilmot
LIne is no longer going to be used as an access road from Erb
Street. The Columbia Road extention is enough to service the
Greyerbiehl area and when the golf course lands free up they will put
the Erb street connection through the Golf Course and expand to the
north. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Greyerbiehl is slated to be developed starting this year,
Clair Creek Meadows will begin the next year and Vista HIlls after that.
At least that is what they think will happen. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I'd like to address the bird issue and I will ask the
chair if they will allow me to give comment on the lack of compliance
shown towards the previous OMB process. That's sort of a grey area so it
will really be up to the chair to decide if they want to hear it or not.
I have the option to address the matter in the courts if need be. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>So there ya go. The more folks willing to give statements, the
better because it shows the OMB that people STILL care about the West
Side Lands. Feel free to join the fun!</DIV>
