Minutes Public Meetings (Jean Marc Beaulieu) . . - 5 - September 16, 1985 The Chairman advised that Council would now hear from objectors, first explaining that Council wishes input prior to a final decision. Fran~ Winters, R.R. #1, BowmanvilIe, L1C 3K2, owner of Lot 3, Plan 10M-755, Bowmanville Heritage Estates, opposes the severance of the property. and the development of an additional residential lot. The proposed residence would obstruct his view. He located in this area primarily for privacy. At the time of purchasing, he did not think a dwelling would be located directly in front of his. Although he is not present, the owner of Lot 2 has the same concern. He feels his concerns are valid. If the Townallows the severance, he recommends that an extensive study re: water supply takes place to ensure that wells would not be affected. He asks that the costs associated with the development of Plan 10M-755 re: services be charged to the proposed lot. Mrs. Deborah Patric~, R.R. #1, Bowmavnille, L1C 3K2, owner of Lot 6, Plan 10M-755, also opposing the proposal, confirmed Mr. Winters' reasons for objecting. She feels that if proper procedures aren't followed, the wells could be contaminated. Her 22 foot well has gone dry and now has to have another well (25 - 30 ft.) installed. She was told that the water was not as good in deeper wells as it is in a shallow one, sulpher is eminent. She and her husband moved from the city based on the Plan as they saw it. Bowmanville Heritage Estates preserved the area as rural. If the lot is severed what assurance do they have that the house will be equal to those of the estates. The lot also has several large maple trees. Mrs. Patrick would like to be assured they won't be removed. Mr. Kurt Pie~enbrock, Oshawa Builder of the home for Mr. Beaulieu, spoke on behalf of Jean Marc Beaulieu. He is aware of the zoning conditions. He can comply with all building requirements. There is a house under construction on lot 7, Plan 10M-755. The underwater streams run parallel to Old Scugog Road. This may be the cause of the well problem on Lot 6. Mr. Beaulieu is Willing to contribute to the construction of Old Scugog Road, but asks to be treated accordingly and not penalized because of the irregular shaped lot. He should not have to pay more because of larger frontage than those across the road. Mr. Piekenbrock confirmed that sulpher is a possibility in deeper wells but that water can be treated. The Chairman declared the public meeting closed. ******************* . . . G,P.A.

HOfstede) The Chairman announced the purpose of the public meeting. As required under the new Planning Act (Section 34(12), Council is holding a public meeting on the proposed rezoning for Part of Lot 17, Concession 1, former Township of Darlington, before either adopting or rejecting the proposed zoning by-law amendment. The Chairman asked if there were any persons wishing to speak to this matter. Ted Watson, and Mr. & Mrs. A. Hofstede indicated a desire to speak. Before proceeding with this matter, The Chairman asked the Clerk to advise on the manner of notice. The Public Notice was mailed to property owners within 120m of the subject property in accordance with the last revised assessment roll, on August 14, 1985, and complied with the regulations under the new Planning Act.

Public Meetings (A. Hofstede) . Notice of Intention to Pass an Amending By-law to remove in part the holding symbol from lands zoned by by-law 84-63 . - 7 - September 16, 1985 The Chairman advised that Council would now hear from the objectors, first explaining that Council wishes input prior to a final decision. Ted Watson, R.R. #2, Bowmavnille, the adjacent property owner, stated that he had some questions and suggestions. Mr. Watson is the owner of a strawberry farm adjacent to Mr. Hofstede's property. He often has equipment going all night for irrigation. When running,the sprayer makes a whine. He often starts up at 3:00 a.m. When down wind, the dust and spray drift. He has a swimming pool of his own, and it often goes out of whack. According to the R1 Zone, a house may be within 5 feet of the lot line. Mr. Watson suggests that a fence be built to prevent the spray from drifting. Planting a double row of spruce trees would produce a wind and sound barrier. He recommends that the residential parts of the house be kept 70 feet from the lot line, and that the purchaser be advised of the farm use. Mr. Watson is not really objecting but making some suggestions so both can co- exi st together. The Chairman advised that Council would now hear from the appl icant. Mr. & Mrs. Hofstede informed Council that because of their limited income, they need to sell some land so they can improve their home. They have owned the property since 1962. The land has some apple trees which they can't keep up. The land is of no value to them, because they can't work it. The Chairman declared the public meeting closed. ********************* The Chairman announced that the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Newcastle intends to pass an amending by-law under Section 35 of the Planning Act, to remove the holding provision from lands located on the south side of Robert Street within Part Lot 28, Concession 1, former Village of Newcastle, presently zoned ((H)Rl-Urban Residential Type One Zone - Holding.1/ The I/(H)R1" Zone permits existing Residential and Conservation, Forestry and Farm uses exclusive of livestock operation uses.
