Shane Baghai doesn’t want you to call it a threat but his remarks about selling the parcel of land at 3&5 Southvale sound peevish for sure. Personal too. Baghai is quoted in the Post as saying: “If my presence … will become such an issue and bring about division within the community, I do have a way out. This is a very sought-after property. If [residents] would like me to sell it, I would sell it.” Come on. This is not about Mr. Baghai. It’s about the height of the building. The zoning is the same now as it was when Baghai bought the parcel. He knew that the limit was four storeys not eight. His remarks may not have been intended as a threat but they sound very uncompromising. Southvale plan said to “raise concerns beyond its scale“
