Council Minutes - 2 - September 8, 1986
PUBLIC MEETING The Mayor announced that any person wishing to speak Re:
By -law 86 -120, being a by -law to stop -up and close and to
authorize the sale of the northerly 5.186 metres of Queen
Street, between Liberty Street and Lambert Street, in the
former Town of Bowmanville, now in the Town of Newcastle,
designated as Part 7 on Reference Plan 1OR -2267 (A & P Stores)
to please come forward and speak at this time. No person
present indicated a desire to speak to this matter.
The Mayor informed Council, that Jasper Holiday would not
be in attendance this evening.
DELEGATIONS Mr. Lou Stavrakos, Tyrone, Chairman of the Tyrone Citizens
Coalition Against Nuclear Dumping, asked that Council do
everything within their power to support the citizens of the
community to oppose and resist the establishment of a- Nuclear
Waste Dump in their community, and to voice the citizens'
concerns to Eldorado and to the appropriate authorities in
the Federal Government.
In his presentation, Mr. Stavrakos outlined some of the
concerns. Bowmanville's water supply could be contaminated
if the waste site is located on one of the farms optioned by
Eldorado. The long term effect upon the whole community
in terms of health hazards, is a problem that will last in
perpetuity. Decreased property values will effect the Town
as a whole. The use of the site for waste disposal is an
abhorrent misuse of prime agricultural land, and would
contravene the laws set by the various governments to
preserve these lands.
Bernie Martin, spokesman for the Starkville and Kendal
Coalition Against Nuclear Waste, informed Council that his
group is opposed to any of the proposed sites. Nuclear Waste
is toxic and dangerous now and will be for thousands of years.
The Group',s mandate is to protect the environment for the
future. They demand that an appropriate body with advanced
knowledge be engaged to find a site away from populated areas.
Eldorado is ignoring the mandate to locate on non - agricultural
land. The proposed sites are prime agricultural land and
in a residential area where a normal amount of growth is
anticipated over the years. One site is near the Ganaraska
Water Shed only 10 kilometres from Port Granby. The Starkville/
Kendal Group is also concerned about property values. They are
asking Council to support their group in every way possible,
and encouraging all residents df the municipality to send
letters to the Federal Government opposing the Eldorado
proposal.
Resolution #C- 714 -86
Moved by Councillor Hamre, seconded by Councillor Wotten
THAT Council hear other delegations wishing to speak to
this matter.
"CARRIED"
Council Minutes - 3 - September 8, 1986
Doug Moffat informed Council that he opposes the Eldorado
proposal. He owns land 3 miles from the proposed site.
The problem has been created and now Eldorado is looking
to dump the waste in somebody's backyard. The populate is
being told that Eldorado can safely dispose of this waste,
but there is no, evidence to show this. Mr. Moffat suggests
that if the disposal is so safe, that it be dumped on
Parliament Hill's front lawn or in some location where the
Members of the Atomic Energy Board, are required to take
up residence. To Mr. Moffat, these proposals are no more
facetious than the proposal to locate the dump site in the
Town of Newcastle. Last year there were 2 low level earth-
quakes that could be felt for miles in Southern Ontario.
Therefore, there is no safe place in Ontario that could
safely store nuclear waste. This is not the right location.
We will have to pay the price to store the waste in a safe
location away from populated areas.
Norm Baker informed Council that he is a resident of Wilmot
Creek. He left 34 ydars of high risk employment at Ontario
Hydro to come to the Town of Newcastle to live in happiness,
because he felt this was the best part of the Province. Mr.
Baker is Co- Chairman of Wilmot Creek Nature Group, and they
are concerned about the possible seepage into the Great Lakes.
Eldorado should return the toxic waste to the ground from which
it was mined.
John VeldhuiiS;, Chairman, Port Granby Monitoring Committee,
outlined the group's activities. The Committee has made
32 suggestions to Council which have been accepted by
Council and the Region of Durham. They meet once a month in
the Newcastle Town Hall. People from various government offices
and groups have spoken at their meetings. The Committee offers
10 years' experiencein fighting the disposal of nuclear waste.
Mr. Veldhuis encouraged all people to take action by showing up
at all hearings.
Resolution #C- 715 -86
Moved by Councillor Hamre, seconded by Councillor Hubbard
THAT the Agenda be altered, and that the Eldorado matter be
dealt with at this time.
"CARRIED"
Resolution #C- 716 -86
Moved by Councillor Hamre, seconded by Councillor Stapleton

Council Minutes - 4 - September 8, 1986
Resolution #C- 716 -86 CON ?jt
AND WHEREAS Council also passed resolutions to advise,
by letter, the Board of Directors of Eldorado, of our
objection to the manner in which Eldorado optioned land
in the Town of Newcastle;
AND WHEREAS Council by resolution also wrote to the Prime
Minister of Ontario, the Ministry of Agriculture and Food,
the Ministry of Environment, the Ministry of Municipal
Affairs, and the Ministry of Energy, requesting their support
of our position as the lands being considered for a permanent
site would be contrary to the Foodland Guidelines and the
Right to Farm Legislation;
AND WHEREAS Council also by resolution, approved the
establishment of a town -wide Citizens' Committee to provide
for communication and liaison between the various Citizens'
Committees and Council;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED THAT:
(a) The delegations be received and advised of actions taken;
(b) That a copy of this resolution be sent to each of the
citizens' groups listed with the Clerk's Department;
(c) That a copy of this resolution be sent to the Local Press.

The meeting reconvened at 8:34 p.m.
Pam Welsh informed Council that she was before the General
Purpose and Administration Committee on September 2, 1986,
regarding the Schleiss & Holland Housing Development.
She requested Council to support her petition to the General
Purpose & Administration Committee that was signed by all of
the residents. All the residents believed that the semi-
detached housing would take place in the interior of the
subdivision. The six lots of concern, face the existing
single family homes, which are on large lots and of an
estate home nature. The residents are not convinced that
the balance for semi's in Newcastle is being upset by changing
these six lots to single family dwellings, because the
statistics show the need for semi - detached homes is being
looked after in other areas of the Town. The Plan is not
registered, therefore, the small change requested could be
made at this time.
Milt Dakin presented to Council the Maintenance Report on the
Newcastle Fitness Centre, which was prepared by 0. & E.
Building Maintenance Consultants. Mr. Dakin explained that he
took the initiative to prepare this report to show Council and
staff that such reports can be done locally and can save tax -
payers'money. Mr. Dakin outlined the problems they found and
recommendations to rectify them. The Town is under no obligation
to pay the invoice presented.
Mary Lynn Fice spoke on behalf of Sandra O'Donahue. Mrs.
Fice asked Council to support the General Purpose and
Administration Committee's recommendation to sell the park-
land in the Courtice Area Subdivision. The Mayor explained
to Mrs. Fice the reason for the original proposal to not sell
the parkland.
Patrick Mothersill, Chairman of the Alert Fire Company,
reqeusted Council to reconsider the sale of the 1950 Pumper.
The Orono and Newcastle Stations have each had their old
pumpers sold to their division. The Bowmanville division
would like the same consideration. The Association agrees
that should the Association decide to dispose of the truck,
the Town could buy it back for $1.00. The truck will be
stored in a member's barn. The Alert Fire Company has existed
for over 130 years.
