Farmhouse in the Hancock Neighbourhood. Libby stated concerns regarding

to move younger students to the Pines Senior Public School (PSPS) on Highway

And whereas the speed limit on Highway 35/115 is 90 km/hr, while most school
zones are 40 km/hr;
And whereas younger students, including those with special needs, are at a
higher risk of possibly fleeing from the classroom, which puts them at risk to
Highway 35/115 road dangers;
And whereas housing development is anticipated to add an additional 1,300 units
into the catchment by 2027, with the potential to generate an additional 230
students;
And whereas the increased enrolment is also impacting the development and
maintenance of physical buildings and playground stability, as well as creating
transportation issues;
And whereas the building of a new school in Newcastle would resolve these
issues and protect Clarington children;
And whereas the KPRDSB has resubmitted a Capital Priorities funding Request
to the Ministry of Education for a Kindergarten to Grade 12 school in Newcastle;
Now therefore be it resolved:

6. Election of Officers - Chair, Vice-Chair, Recording Secretary: Brian explained that
at the beginning of each new term of council ( and therefore of committees such as
ours ) elections are held for the Chair and Vice Chair positions. He noted that he
had been a member of the Committee for 19 years and chair for the past 15 years

Moved by Carmen Aeillo, seconded by Leo Blindenbach, that Kate Potter be

Hossie be nominated for the position of Vice-Chair. Tom agreed to accept the

Discussion next took place concerning the possibility of creating a position of
Recording Secretary for the Committee. This is something Brian has done for the
past 2-3 years and that was formerly done by the staff representative. The question
was also asked as to whether a staff member could be assigned to this role for
meetings. Councillor Zwart offered to look into this. In the interim, Brian offered to
continue to take minutes.
NOTE/UPDATE: Councillor Zwart has communicated with the Chair and Vice-Chair
on this matter since the meeting. The Municipality is NOT prepared to provide a staff
member to serve as recording secretary. The Committee will need to discuss how to
proceed on this issue at it next meeting.
Status Reports/Updates

Naturalist
3. Traffic/Usage Survey – Brian/Kate . In Kate’s absence, Brian reminded the group
that we agreed to defer this until the spring of this year. New member Samantha
offered to work with Kate to implement an on-line version of the survey which
would be less labour intensive and which would allow for better compilation of
data
4. Visioning Exercise organized by the Waterfront Strategy group – Kate. In Kate’s
absence, there was no formal report available. However, Brian advised the group
that Faye Langmaid, former Project Manager with the Municipality and Amy
Burke, Senior Planner and project Lead for the Waterfront Strategy, made a
presentation last week to another group with which Brian is involved. He spoke
briefly about some of the implications and opportunities for the SWNA that will
arise from the strategy and reminded the Committee that the SWNAMAC itself
arose from the original waterfront strategy report of 1992.
Page 15
5. Treatment Plant/ Storm Drainage Pond Project – Brian noted that most of the
remedial work was completed late last fall. Some equipment was still present on
the site, presumably working on the outfall portion of the sewage treatment plant
upgrade.
6. Ideas for events/activities in 2023: Brian reminded the group that 2023 marks the
25th anniversary of the creation of the SWNA. Everyone agreed that we should
mark this milestone with a number of activities and events while continuing those
that we have been doing on an annual basis’
Discussion then ensued and the following events were confirmed or will be investigated
further:

our own schedule
At this point, we hold meetings on the 3rd Tuesday of each month.

which had measures in place to ensure the groundwater was not contaminated.
