It noted that Valleys 2000 (Bowmanville) Inc. had been actively seeking to acquire either through purchase or lease land within the Bowmanville Creek valley for the purpose of implementing the Valleys 2000 Concept Plan. 1.2 At that time, Goodyear Canada Inc. owned one of the largest parcels of land in the valley between Highway 2 and Baseline Road. Its industrial operation was located on the tablelands on the east side of the Creek. The Valleys 2000 Concept Plan depicted several improvements to the area on the west side of the Creek including landscaping, the construction of a primary asphalt trail and a secondary granular trail, a paved maintenance area near the existing dam, a pavilion and look-out decks and interpretative signage. 1.3 At the time of the original report dated October 2, 2000, the matters regarding the land exchanges and purchases were confidential. Since that time, all of these matters have been addressed and there is no need for this Addendum Report to #PD-102-00 to be confidential. 1.4 By its approval of Report #PD-18-00, at its meeting on February 14, 2000 Council approved the Concept Plan for the Valleys 2000 project except for a by-pass channel around Goodyear’s pond pending further investigation as to its viability. 1.5 Report #PD-102-00 recommended that a by-law be passed (By-law 2000-172) authorizing the Municipality to enter into a Lease Agreement containing terms that the Director of Planning considers necessary to protect the Municipality’s interests for a portion of Goodyear’s valley lands situated on the easterly side of the Creek. 1.6 The Lease Agreement was executed by Goodyear Inc.’s signing officers in order to facilitate receipt by Valleys 2000 (Bowmanville) Inc. of a Trillium grant from the Province of Ontario to assist it in implementing the Concept Plan for the Valleys 2000 project. However, it was not executed by the Municipality of Clarington pending resolution of certain technical issues. 1.7 These technical issues have been resolved. However, Goodyear Canada Inc. recently has transferred its interest in the lands subject to the lease agreement to Goodyear Engineered Products Canada Inc. 1.8 The purpose of this Addendum Report is to obtain Council’s approval of the Lease Agreement referred to in Report #PD-102-00 being made with Goodyear Engineered Products Canada Inc. rather with than Goodyear Canada Inc. 2.0 CONCLUSIONS 2.1 The references to Goodyear Canada Inc. need to be replaced with references to Goodyear Engineered Products Canada Inc. It is recommended that Council pass a by-law to repeal By- law 2000-172 and to authorize the execution of the Lease Agreement on behalf of the Municipality with Goodyear Engineered Products Canada Inc.
