Quick update on the Masse RV park development. We found out today that the Masse development application has been removed from the agenda for the July 6 LSAC Municipal Planning Commission meeting as the county is waiting for more reports, it is currently expected to be addressed in the August MPC meeting.

Minor correction to previous post, the parade will travel east of Ted McDonald park through to the east end of the village.

I just received an update from LSA County Council and was informed that they passed the redistricting application for Masse.

I cannot imagine anything else that we could have done to point out the obvious flaws in his application/submitted studies and how this application directly goes against the LSAC Municipal Development Plan and extensive government-developed environmental studies that specifically recommend against developing that property for recreational use.

Next step in the process is for Masse to complete a development application for what he actually intends to develop on the property, I will keep everyone informed as I learn more. We cannot appeal the redistricting application based on the Municipal Government Act, but we can oppose and appeal any development applications that are submitted by Masse. Latest RV park concept map presented at the public hearing today shows development of approximately 44 lots on the west side of the property, not the east side as he initially proposed.

Again, I appreciate the support that everyone has shown in writing letters to LSAC and attending the public hearings.

We had a great representation at the Public Hearing for the redistricting application today, a huge thanks to everyone that wrote letters opposing the development and those that showed their opposition by attending the hearing in person.

County council did not make a decision during the public hearing, they would not commit to when the decision on the redistricting application would be made.

I held off publishing the letter that I submitted to LSAC council on behalf our summer village council to limit the information that got passed to Masse, here it is for anyone that is interested along with the letter that we received from the environmental consulting company that we hired to review the Masse environmental report, plus the presentation that I gave at the LSAC public hearing today (the pictures were projected for the audience to see):

1. Letter from Nakamun Park Council to LSAC Council
2. Letter from Aquality Environmental to LSAC Council
3. Presentation at Public Hearing Mar 2

Here’s hoping that LSAC Council listened to our concerns!

[Mark Miller]

Reminder – the public hearing for the Masse Redistricting application is this coming Wednesday, March 2 at 10:00am at the Sangudo County Office. Anyone that has an interest in this application is encouraged to attend the public hearing.

[Mark Miller]
