MORE ON THE SHERWOOD FOREST SCHOOL SITE

If you would like to participate, please contact Sandy. The May Annual General Meeting is the target date for a full update to the community.
ORCHARD PARK PUBLIC SCHOOL BOUNDARY REVIEW
The school board`s senior administration has recommended to the Board that the school boundaries, effective September 2013, expand to incorporate the current Sherwood Forest P.S. attendance area. No additional new areas were proposed in the staff recommendation. There will be a debate on the question at the Board`s meeting on February 7 starting around 7:15 pm. The meeting agenda is posted the day before the meeting at: http://www.tvdsb.ca/board.cfm?subpage=113288 which will give you a better idea of when in the meeting the boundary review will be discussed.
If you can’t make the meeting, you can watch live on-line at:

BRESCIA UNIVERSITY COLLEGE LAND USE AND ZONING CHANGE
Brescia has expressed some interest in revising its application for a land use and zoning change to its property on the west side of Brescia Lane. The nearby residents have met and subject to clarification and confirmation of a few details, there will be an amended application filed at city hall. Stay tuned for details.
SARNIA ROAD WIDENING
This project remains in the city’s long term capital budget. However, land acquisition will not take place before 2019, and construction work is not slated to begin until 2021. The city may complete the Environmental Assessment this year, which will provide guidance for the future construction work.
