“Since the interim connection to Moodie Drive is not being constructed in Phase 1, the Transitway cannot be put into service until the completion of Phase 2.

The NCC is currently undertaking their Greenbelt Master Plan Review and will not be in a position to approve the sale of the requested property until after the review is completed, which is expected sometime in 2012. Phase 2 cannot be constructed until the property is transferred.
In the event that the land transfer did not take place, Phase 1 could not be utilized. Thus, the risk to the City is that it would be proceeding with the commencement of construction of Phase 1 before the ability to proceed with Phase 2 is a certainty.”
