All questions must be asked through the Chair. The Chairman announced that Committee would now hear from objectors, first explaining that Council wishes input prior to a final decision. Tom Sobil, Group 5, Box 2, R.R. #3, Bowmanville, who lives on the corner of the fourth line and road allowance, stated his objection to this proposal. Mr. Sobil is concerned that his water supply will be affected by this proposal. He has experienced problems with his well. The dirt builds up inside the well and plugs it, then the well requires cleaning. Periodically, Mr. Sobil experiences shortage of water. His previous neighbours had 4 wells. In the summer, he had to purchase water. Mr. Paul Sobil, R.R. #3, BowmanvilIe, stated that prior to this hearing, he submitted a letter outlining his opposition and concerns. His home is 5 years old. The drilled well is 30 - 50 feet deep. Because of the high content of rust, Mr. Sobil has purchased a water softener. His wife won't drink the water. She gets water from her parents in Bowmanville. Mr. Sobil asks that careful consideration be given to the water supply, prior to approva l. Mr. Peter Sobil, R.R. #3, Bowmanville, stated his concerns relative to the water supply. Although his well of 17~' was dug over 50 years ago, it did run dry when Tom Sobil's house was built, and had to be cleaned out. There has never been great quantities of water. Water was conserved when his 4 children lived at home. He questioned the prospect of extending municipal water to the proposed subdivision.

E., Village of Pickering, Town of Ajax, Ontario, L1V 2B4, stated that his Consulting Firm carried out an environmental report for the applicant. Potential water difficulties were noted. Some soil testing was done but not an in-depth study. Mr. Kortekaas outlined the reasons for the Sobils' problems and explained ways to address those concerns. The residents he talked to south of Pebblestone Road do not have problems with the quality of their water. It is Mr. Kortekaas' understanding that a requirement of the subdivision would be to do complete testing and insure that an acceptable quality and sufficient quantity of water is available. The Chairman concluded the public meeting. ****************************************** G.f>.A.

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 amendments to the Town of Newcastle's Comprehensive Zoning By-law 84-63, would amend several sections and schedules of By-law 84-63, affecting lands throughout the Town of Newcastle.

Mrs. Elaine Haines, Box 223, Orono, LOB lMO, objected to Amendment No. 24, amending Schedule 13 of By-law 84-63, affecting lands in Lot 29, Concession 5, former Township of Clarke. The subject lands are presently zoned C-6 (Service Station Commercial). The proposed amendment would rezone the subject lands to CI-2 (General Commercial Exception Two). The permitted uses for Cl-2 vary. The present zoning is an error in mapping. There is no service station on the subject lands. The amendment was initiated by the Town to correct the error. Mrs. Haines has heard rumours as to the uses that Marg West (the owner of the subject lands) proposes. Mrs. Haines lives directly across from the subject lands, and is concerned with thE parking and sewage problems that would occur if the subject lands are developed as indicated.
