Continuing to plot the traverse we have an entry of N30W and a distance of 2.05 chains at Conc 7, which I have taken to be 2.5 chains from the centre-line intersection of the Road Allowance between Concessions 6 and 7 with the Road Allowance between Lots 18 and 19. Even though there is no indication that the Road Allowance between Lots 18 and 19 was actually surveyed and posted across Concession 7 I believe that the Shore Traverse connected to the centre-line post as described above. This Traverse Station was plotted on the Profile for the Road Allowance between Lots 18 and 19 and its elevation interpolated. Both Profiles are included at Appendix D. 5.7 Connections to Survey Monuments by BA File B-1232 Survey connections were measured to the three water side survey monuments on O.L.S. Stewart’s provisional plan, as well as to HCP 1 on that plan. The resulting bearings, distances and coordinates all agreed very closely with the values on the plan. A sketch has been prepared (included at Appendix F) showing the shape and relationship between the Road Allowance between Lots 18 and 19, the lots on Reg’d. Plan 779 and Lots 42 through 45 on Stewart’s survey. As is evident on the sketch, Lots 4 through 9 are ‘cut off’ from the lakeshore, if the sidelines for these lots were to be extended. However, as discussed under my Concluding Remarks, I am not convinced that any of these lots are entitled to be extended. The purpose for the sketch is to give an overall picture of how these various lines and parcels all fit together. Page 30 of 66
6) Law Review 6.1 Relevant Statute Law 6.1.1 Municipal Survey This survey is being done under the authority of Section 48 of the Surveys Act, which reads: 1) “The council of a municipality or the board of trustees of an improvement district, upon its own motion, may, or upon the petition of one-half of the landowners affected shall, pass a by-law authorizing an application to the Minister to cause a survey to be made under his direction for the purpose of fixing the position of a disputed or lost line, boundary or corner that is in the municipality and that has been surveyed under competent authority or under the Land Titles Act or the Registry Act.” 2) “The Minister shall appoint and instruct a surveyor to make the survey for which an application has been made under subsection (1) and when the survey has been made and the plan and field notes have been examined by the Minister, the Minister shall cause a notice to be published once in each week for four consecutive weeks in a newspaper having general circulation in the municipality in which the survey has been made of a hearing to be held by him at a stated place on a day not less than ten days after the last publication of the notice at which hearing the survey will be considered and any interested persons will be heard, and upon the evidence submitted the Minister may direct such amendments to be made as he considers necessary and may confirm the position of the disputed or lost line, boundary or corner fixed by the survey, and any line, boundary or corner so confirmed is, subject to section 49, an unalterable line, boundary or corner and is final and conclusive and shall not be questioned in any court.” 3) “The Minister shall mail within ten days of confirming a survey under subsection (2) a copy of the plan and field notes of the survey to the municipality and to every person who appeared at the hearing.” 4) “Subject to section 51, the cost of a survey under subsection (2) shall be paid to the surveyor making the survey by the municipality making the application therefor upon notice in writing by the Minister to the municipality that the survey has been made, and the municipality may levy all or any part of such cost on the landowners affected by the survey in proportion to the benefit received as determined by by-law of the municipality and collect the same as taxes.” Section 49 provides a right of appeal: 1) “Any person objecting to the confirmation of a survey under subsection (2) may appeal to the Divisional Court and the court may decide the matter on the evidence before it or direct the trial of an issue and may dismiss the appeal or order the Minister to amend the survey and plan in such manner as the court considers proper.” 2) “Notice of an appeal under this section shall be served on the Minister within thirty days of the date of the confirmation by the Minister of the survey.” 3) “Upon the expiry of thirty days from the confirmation of a survey by the Minister or where an appeal has been taken under subsection (1) within thirty days of the final disposition of the Page 31 of 66
