^gk ~ ~ rk g~|ks~| ~p rk ik^grki q^^qk s|~ ^ zss|q ^gk ¼izk½ ?k~zs|Ì
comments on the subject application are noted below:
The subject property is located within 300m of Canadian National Railway's (CN Rail) Guelph
Subdivision which carries Metrolinx's Kitchener GO Train service.
As CN Rail is the owner of the railway corridor, they are the authority to provide commentary on
matters related to rail safety. Metrolinx suggests that CN Rail is circulated the application for
review.
The Proponent is advised the following:
o
Warning: Metrolinx and its assigns and successors in interest operate commuter transit
service within 300 metres from the subject land. In addition to the current use of these
lands, there may be alterations to or expansions of the rail and other facilities on such
lands in the future including the possibility that Metrolinx or any railway entering into an
agreement with Metrolinx or any railway assigns or successors as aforesaid may expand
their operations, which expansion may affect the environment of the occupants in the
vicinity, notwithstanding the inclusion of any noise and vibration attenuating measures
in the design of the development and individual units. Metrolinx will not be responsible
for any complaints or claims arising from use of such facilities and/or operations on,
over or under these lands.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Best regards,
