I recenlty read a blog called, “Moving into Seaton Creekside” , which discusses future Mattamy development in the Pickering area. Appears Mattamy is trying to push through council the right to start some construction, without final approval of the plans. I mean, didn’t they learn about this stuff with the Ottawa fiasco? I see they are only mentioning that they are going to sell homes but I guess they haven’t started yet, thank god.
I quote the following from the blog: “Mattamy on the other hand says, “well the land is for building homes and shops so let us get to now because its ours and we gonna dig it up and tear it down all the same!” while wagging their tongues at city officials.” Seems rather arrogant in my book but then, Mattamy Homes, as you have read in my blog has historically got what they wanted, until they hit the brick wall in Ottawa.
It would seem that those 3 JD Power awards have gone to someone’s head in that they think they can just tell councils to do what Mattamy wants. Arrogant to say the least. Hope the bulley boys don’t attend the October 20th Council meeting and try to pursuade the elected officials to bend over and submit. At least in Oakville, council got donations for certain projects and Milton got money for free transit. I wonder what Pickering will get?

As we all know, it just depends on how much money they can start funneling into city officials pockets.

I only wish I could find out how much and to whom.. Nice to see how the voting goes. I personnally know how Oakville mayor ann Mulvale voted on my issue – an issue she personnaly became involved in and tried to direct away from final settlement.
