c) Rezoning DEV 89-44, OPA 89-39 - Laidlaw Waste Systems - Report PD-178-89.
David Scott, R.R. #1, Orono, Ontario appeared on behalf of the COmmittee of
Clarke Constituents. Mr. Scott who has collected over 1,000 signatures of residents
strongly opposed to this development noted that this legal non-conforming use
seems to be an "accident of history" and has been in operation since 1971.
The following objections were made:
1) this development is not environmentally suitable;
2) the site has never been subjected to a full environmental review process;
3) the development has negative social impact; and
4) there is no justification to rezone this land from Agricultural.
John Veldhuis, Chairman, Newcastle/Port Granby Environment COmmittee concurred
fully with Mr. David Scott's comments and will continue to work actively towards
closing down the Laidlaw facility.
Helen MacDonald, R.R. U, Newtonville, ontario LOA lJO-Report PD-178-79 noted
that unregulated dumps which have been in operation since the 1970's should
be closed. The location of this site and the nearby stream make this
use environmentally and socially unacceptable. Mrs. MacDonald requested the
Committee to deny this application for Rezoning and Official Plan Amendment.
Martha Farrow, R.R.* 1, Newtonville, ontario LOA lJO is a lifelong resident
of the area and read her letter dated June 10, 1988 to Mr. Roy Forrester, Orono
Times. She fears well-water contamination and noted that the location of a garbage
dump in close proximity of the watersheds is deplorable.
Judy Lynn, R.R. #1, Newtonville, ontario LOA lJO concurred with Mr. David Scott
and Mrs. Helen MacDonald's comments.
Terry MacKenzie, Box 165, Newtonville, ontario LOA IJO appeared on behalf of
her one year old daughter and pleaded with the Committee to vote against the Laidlaw
proposal.
Norman Berson, R.R. *1, Orono, Ontario LOA IJO a one-year resident of the area,
voiced opposition to this project because of the noise emanating therefrom
and the devaluation of his property associated therewith.
'Ibm Kind, R.R. U, Newtonville, Ontario, LOA lJO moved to this area three years
ago to create a healthy environment for his three young children and believes
that the truck traffic will be hazardous to his family.
No one spoke in support.
J.D. Kennedy, Marshall, Macklin, Monaghan Limited, 275 Duncan Mill lbad, Don
Mills, Ontario, M3B 2Yl appeared before the Committee on behalf of Laidlaw Waste
Systems and noted that Laidlaw has attempted to address and resolve the concerns
of the residents:
1) truck traffic - the proposal will generate one more truck per day;
2) noise - earth berms will be erected to lower noise levels;
3) dust - roads will be watered and windbreaks created;
4) visual impact - approximately 2,000 trees will be planted;
5) adverse environmental effects - water samples are taken regularly which
. indicate that levels do not exceed ontario water objectives.

present.
f) Schwartz - PD-18l-89.
Larry Goertzen, 94 Wellington Street, Bowmanville, Ontario, LIC IV7 circulated
a petition with approximately 200 names of people opposed to this proposal.
Mr. Goertzen feels that this development will adversely impact traffic and that
a park for senior citizens would be a desirable alternative.
carmen Irwin, 48 Division Street, Bowmanville, Ontario, LlC 2Z6 is an adjacent
neighbour of the development which he feels is premature and should receive
input from residents. Mr. Irwin would prefer residential rather than commercial
development.
R. Walters, 45 Division Street, Bowmanville, Ontario LlC 2Z5 formerly a member
of the committee of Adjustment. Mr. Walters has been a resident since 1952 and
feels that this development is not compatible with the surrounding homes which

PUBLIC HEARINGS
Hugh Nind, 46 Division Street, Bowmanville, Ontario, LlC 2Z6 a resident since
1973 advised the Committee that he opposes this application because of the noise
and the garbage which will be generated from the proposed development.
Doug Dewell, 72 Temperance Street, Bowmanville, Ontario, LIC 3A9 stated that
he has no objection to the proposed use but is distressed that a historical
building will be lost in the process. He feels that the heritage building should
be rehabilitated and incorporated into the new project.
Jane Eccles, 38 COncession Street west, Bomwanville, Ontario, LIC lY5, Visual
Arts Teacher, appeared on behalf of ten local artists and stated that the building
on this site is the last element of a historical monument in the TOwn of Newcastle.
She requested the Committee to historically research the building, allocate
the appropriate commercial space and seek the help of local artists for this
process.
. Evelyn stroud, 89 Little Avenue, Bowmanville, Ontario, L1C lJ9 is a frequent
user of the library and stated that the present parking facilities are inadequate
and therefore fears that a bad situation may become worse.
Lloyd Grovun, 86 Wellington Street, Bowmanville, Ontario, LlC lV7 strongly opposes
the commercial aspect of this development because Wellington Street is a residential
street. Convenience stores and fast food outlets will create an intrusion on
surrounding residents and cause parking problems and traffic hazards to children.
Mr. Grovun requested that a meeting be held between the developer and the residents.
No one spoke in support of this application.
.
Mr. Larry Gold, 2040 Yonge Street, 3rd Floor, TOronto, Ontario, M4S lZ9 advised
the Committee that the intention of the developer is to make Bowmanville the
best place to live and work. The property currently has an industrial designation
and the intent is to replace the existing use with one which can be made compatible
with the existing neighbourhood. The developer will deliver a quality project
in conjunction with the concerns of the surrounding residents.
Mr. Jason Schwartz, 2040 Yonge Street, 3rd Floor, 'Ibronto, Ontario, M4S lZ9
explained that this prestige development will not be conducive to convenience
stores or fast food outlets. The concourse and second floor will provide shopping
facilities and the two top floors will house twenty-one condominium units which
will provide integrated living space. The garbage container will be housed
and a large patio surrounded by trees will be combined with the parking lot.
Flora Qnino, 11 Finch Avenue west, 'Ibronto, Ontario described the decor of the
proposed building and condominium units which will be occupied by business
professionals and "empty nesters". Each condominium unit will have its own
balcony and occupants will have the use of a hobby or party room.

g) St. Mary's Cement.
Gordon White, P.O. Box 100, Bowmanville, Ontario LlC 3K8 appeared on behalf
of the Port Darlington Committee comprised of forty members whose main purpose
is to enhance the quality of life of the local residents. Mr. White advised
that surrounding residents can see, hear, smell and cleanup the effects of St.
Mary's Cement operation. Mr. White noted that all surrounding residents are
adversely affected and requested the following:
1) a full environmental assessment hearing of the proposal; and
2) that the committee's decision be withheld until such time as the residents
are given an opportunity to discuss the proposal with representatives of
St. Mary's Cement.
David Ashcroft, Group 5, Box 36, R.R. i2, aowmanville, Ontario LIC 3K3, Secretary
of the Cedar Crest Beach Association and three year resident advised that he
has endured constant problems pertaining to dust, noise and hazardous traffic
situations because of St. Mary's Cement operation. He advised that the proposed
development will change the shoreline configuration, will adversely affect the
natural shoreline habitat and fish, generate more dust and increase the level
of irritating noise emanating from machinery.
Brian Patch, 37 Cedar Crest Beach Road, Bowmanville, Ontario LlC 3K3, is the
most immediately affected neighbour and has experienced the following:
1) increased air and lake pollution;
2) beach erosion;
3) hazardous vehicular traffic situation;

5) irritating noise; and
6) blasts emanating from St. Mary's Cement.
No one spoke in support.
william Biddle, D.G. Biddle and Associates, 734 Anderson Street, Whitby, Ontario,
LIN 5R5 appeared on behalf of the applicant and displayed site plans of the
proposed development. He noted that the proposal will be environmentally superior
to the existing facility and that the belt conveyor will replace the need for
trucks to transport cement. He requested the Committee to approve the rezoning
to recognize the existing uses. He will ensure that Council's interests are
protected.

LlN 7Ll re: Report PD-193-89, reiterated opposition to the Reid/Reynaert

the last month rent. She has approached several agencies including politicians

diverse agencies in different municipalities, makes it very difficult for people
to better themselves. Mrs. Patterson advised that she, today, has received
financial assistance.
