Owner, Donald Myles was present and advised the Committee that he had nothing further to add as this Application.

There was no one else present speaking in favor of this Application.

The following people were present speaking against this Application:

Glen Cosman – 9 Apple Hill Rd., co-owner of Village Square Plaza
Rob Cosman – 20 Beverley Hills Dr., co-owner of Village Square Plaza

Mr. Glen Cosman addressed the Committee, concerning his letter noting that he had some concerns regarding this
application. He requested to review the wording of the Application for the Temporary Use. 

A copy of the Application was then given to Mr. Cosman for his perusal.

Mr. Cosman advised the Committee of the following concerns:

* he is not against the garden centre as he purchases his flowers there,  however he feels that the temporary structure
   used as the garden centre encroaches on “other properties”; 
* he is concerned that the item may be simply approved without due consideration of the proposed operation;
* this encroachment causes a problem, as the operation of the garden centre spills out all around it and the loss of
   4 parking spaces puts parking at a premium for the Plaza;
* there was an agreement made between the owners of Village Square at least 20 years ago that the parking lot would
   only be used for parking purposes;
* he is making PAC aware of this situation and recommends that approval be made with the intent to monitor and police
  the development. 

The Committee noted that the Application is being treated as a new application however private agreements for joint use of the property may in fact be more restrictive than that which may be approved by the Committee.
