That Administrator's report ADMIN. 73 - 85 be received; 2. That the inset depicting the map of the Town of Newcastle be replaced with a map of southern Ontario and that the mileages be changed to depict the mileage to Montreal and to Toronto. BACKGROUND AND COMMENT: Earlier in the year, Council :approved the contribution of $2,000 towards the painting of an advertisement on the side of a transport van. At the time of approval a number of conditions were stipulated. The commercial artist who is preparing the advertisement for the side of a van has indicated a strong preference to replace the inset of the Town with a map of southern Ontario showing; Lake Ontario and Lake Erie and major place names. Mr. Preston, whose van the advertisement would be painted on has also requested that Council reconsider the proposed inset. It is his feeling that it would be more appropriate to depict southern Ontario and the major cities. Given the comments of the commercial ADMIN. 73 - 85 -2- artist and the owner of the van, it would be appropriate for Council to reconsider the inset. For the information of Council, I am attaching a copy of Council's earlier position. Respectfully submitted, David Johnston, M.C.I.P., DSJ:nof Chief Administrative Officer att. G. P. & A. Cont' d.
