And while the industrial proposal represents a permitted and viable use aligned with this employment and land objectives, so staff are very much in support of this industrial development being proposed there. So staff are recommending that the proposals not be considered in isolation, but rather an opportunity to be explored to consider a coordinated development on the site. The second is the site access. Staff are recommending that access from industrial road be explored as it would be better support long term industrial use of the property and reduce any construction and operational impacts on the adjacent residential properties along 7th Street Southwest. So if Council looks at the site plan, the current proposed entrances off 7th Street Southwest, whereas if we were to extend industrial park road, then we would have both the entrance for the new Ridgeway development as well as battery energy both come off industrial, which I think would be would alleviate any concerns with road construction or noise going through the residential area. It is important to note that the Municipality does have statutory obligations out of the Planning Act to process this application within some prescribed timelines. Refusal or delay could result in appeal to the Ontario land Tribunal, as well as we could have additional potential legal and consulting costs not recoverable by the Municip ality. As a result, staff are not in a position to fu …
