dweller. Mr. Carruthers realizes the subject land is not
valuable farm land, but he is concerned that the proposed

The Chairman called on the Director of Planning to briefly
describe the purpose and effect of the by-law, and how the
by-law accomplishes the stated purpose.
The proposed zoning by-law amendment would change the zone category
of a 4.13 hectare (10.2 acre) parcel of land located in Part of

Mr. G. Osumek, R. R. 2, Bowmanville.
The Chairman announced that questions may be asked concerning

Mr. Bill Patters()n,--R.R.#2-, Bowmall\lille, Lot 25, Concession 1,
requested that the following concerns be add-ressed:

be a stipulation read into the amendment as to degree of
mental illness?
.
3. Winter access - the driveway is very long. Others have
experienced some difficulty in getting through in the
winter. Also, the road is not the safest.
Mr. W. Andrew, R. R. 2, BowmanvilIe, stated that most of his
concerns were voiced by Mr. Patterson. However, he asked if
the property would be fenced? He had one bad experience in
Whitby where he previously resided.
Mrs. Osumek, R. R. 2, Bowmanville,voiced her concerns. She
also questioned the fencing requirements and if they would be
adequate for safety. Will the residents be supervised and what
age group will they be?

Some are working while others are going to school. The
residents will not be sitting idle because the plan involves
establishing a green house and garden plots, as well as
goats and chickens for ~he~re~idents to be trained~to look after.
The staff ratio will more than one to one:-Mrs. Nicholls
plans to employ 3 trained and certified councillors, 2
night staff and 2 day staff as well as a director. Mrs.
Nicholls is a registered nurse. The residents will be
supervised at all times and are not allowed to leave the
grounds or walk on the streets alone. The property will be
adequately fenced. Two wells exist on the property and the
septic system has been checked by the Public Health.
Renovations to the house will have to be performed once the
proposal is submitted to the government. These residents
each receive a pension and further subsidy if required.
The Chairman concluded the public meeting.
*********************************************
DELEGATIONS
The Chairman announced that the delegations of Mrs. George
Elliott, Mr. Tine Toushan and Mr. Frank Shane would not be
making a presentation.
Mr. Roy Forrester, Orono, voiced his concern about how the
municipality is taking care of the Environment. He cited
locations where regard for the environment was not addressed.
The locations are generally where road construction is taking
place. Topsoil is going into the ditch and running into the
streams and watercourses. Responsible industries when searching
for a municipality to locate in, are examining how that muni-
cipality takes care of its environment. In conclusion, Mr.
Forrester asked for a commitment from the Town to protect the
environment. Having a concern for the environment is not anti-
development. He asked that more care be taken when performing
road work.
