And in fact the one picture they\u2019ve shown shows a huge buffer zone they want to put around the plant property which could be used for passive green space, it could be used for walking trails, it could be used for pickleball courts, it could be used for frisbee golf, you know different multiple opportunities here.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_95913\" style=\"width: 773px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-95913\" class=\"size-full wp-image-95913\" src=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2021\/03\/2014-proposed-site-plan-at-Mountview.jpg\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 763px) 100vw, 763px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2021\/03\/2014-proposed-site-plan-at-Mountview-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2021\/03\/2014-proposed-site-plan-at-Mountview-630x470.jpg 630w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2021\/03\/2014-proposed-site-plan-at-Mountview-750x559.jpg 750w, https:\/\/media-doppleronline-ca.s3-accelerate.amazonaws.com\/2021\/03\/2014-proposed-site-plan-at-Mountview.jpg 763w\" alt=\"\" width=\"763\" height=\"569\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-95913\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">This 2014 site plan shows a buffer zone, outlined in purple, on the Mountview property that could potentially be used as public parkland (District of Muskoka)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>For several decades, the Town of Huntsville has slowly been acquiring property to expand public waterfront access in and around the downtown core. In 2020, it purchased the last two pieces of privately owned property on the southern shore of Hunters Bay, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/town-buys-privately-owned-lands-next-to-avery-beach-park\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">an airplane hangar near Avery Beach<\/a><\/span>, which has since been demolished, and the <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/council-moves-forward-with-purchase-of-former-kwh-property-currently-owned-by-uponor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">former KWH Pipe property<\/a><\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>If the Mountview property could be added to Huntsville&#8217;s existing parkland system, perhaps accessible via a walking bridge across the Muskoka River, and once sidewalks are updated to link downtown Huntsville to the trail system, &#8220;we would have approximately 5.5 kilometres of waterfront property that we own and control [from Hwy 11 to the Lions Lookout property],&#8221; noted Hernen.<\/p>\n<p>It will be approximately three years before the District has decommissioned the plant and built a new pumping station, he added, but &#8220;there\u2019s nothing to stop us from looking at it now and depending on what space we want now, there\u2019s nothing stopping us from coming to an arrangement today and start to use some of that space.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Councillor Brian Thompson noted that the plant is in a flood plain and that more recent District discussions indicate the pumping station will be moved to a different location than what&#8217;s shown on the site plan, at a higher elevation closer to the current Fairvern Nursing Home site.<\/p>\n<p>Councillor Tim Withey added that &#8220;it will be interesting to see what happens to the Fairvern property in a couple years&#8230; maybe there\u2019s another big property we could snag for our downtown.&#8221; He suggested that the Town needs to express the municipality&#8217;s interest in that property as well. Fairvern is being <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/province-approves-expansion-of-fairvern-to-160-beds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">redeveloped on a property near the hospital<\/a><\/span>, a project anticipated to start in May of this year.<\/p>\n<p>During the same meeting, Hernen also requested permission for staff to engage a consultant to develop a new Waterfront Development Strategy Design Brief. The estimated $40,000 cost for the consultant would be funded from the Town&#8217;s Parkland Obligatory Reserve Fund.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s important now that we take the proper steps to figure out what this vision could look like and what\u2019s the long-range vision,&#8221; said Hernen. &#8220;(Staff have) a lot of concepts but I think it\u2019s time to bring in somebody that\u2019s got an open set of eyes to waterfront development and that can really engage the community in this\u2026&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>According to the staff report presented at the meeting, the last major waterfront planning strategy for the Town was developed in 1991, although subsequent strategic plans have included waterfront considerations.<\/p>\n<p>Councillors were supportive of hiring a consultant.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s time really give serious consideration to how we connect all of these parts\u2026 to actually have a theme, to really give ourselves a real waterfront identity is going to be absolutely key in this process,&#8221; said Councillor Jonathan Wiebe.<\/p>\n<p>Mayor Karin Terziano added that she&#8217;s &#8220;not usually a fan of hiring consultants for anything but on this one I\u2019m going to cave because I think this is really important\u2026 this pandemic has brought our community out to our natural resources, they\u2019re all over our trails and sidewalks and all of this stuff is really important and it seems like it\u2019s taken a pandemic to show us how important getting out is for our community.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Councillors directed staff to both engage the District in discussions regarding the Mountview property, as well as begin the process of creating a new waterfront development strategy with the assistance of an outside consultant. Resolutions passed at General Committee must be ratified at the following Regular Council meeting.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: center;\">Don\u2019t miss out on Doppler!<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Sign up <a href=\"https:\/\/doppleronline.ca\/huntsville\/dont-miss-out-on-doppler\/\"><u>here<\/u><\/a> to receive our email digest with links to our most recent stories.<br \/>\nLocal news in your inbox three times per week!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a style=\"background: #5cb85c url('https:\/\/d1iczxrky3cnb2.cloudfront.net\/red_logo.png') no-repeat 37px; color: #fff; text-decoration: none; font-family: Verdana,sans-serif; display: inline-block; font-size: 16px; padding: 15px 38px; padding-left: 75px; -webkit-border-radius: 2px; -moz-border-radius: 2px; border-radius: 2px; box-shadow: 0 1px 0 0 #1f5a89; text-shadow: 0 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.3);\" href=\"https:\/\/donorbox.org\/support-huntsville-doppler\">Click here to support local news<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Mountview Wastewater Treatment Plant occupies a prime location on the Muskoka River, immediately across from the Canada Summit Centre.
