It was also requested that a 5% cash-in-lieu of parkland be accepted and credited to the Park Reserve Account. iii) It was requested by the Town of Newcastle Public Works Department that a storm water management report be prepared, that the temporary turning circles be replaced by permanent cul-de-sacs, and that the owner/applicant enter into a cost- sharing agreement with the Town of Newcastle for the construction of a sidewalk and lighting from the subject site to the Newtonville Public School. iv) The Northumberland and Newcastle Board of Education requested that sidewalks be built within the interior of the plan of subdivision and along Regional Road 18 .

'504 . . . .5 REPORT NO. : PD-173-90 PAGE 5 9 STAFF COM4ENTS 9 . 1 Staff has concerns with respect to the design of this subdivision and it has been suggested to the applicant's agent that perhaps it would be appropriate to collaborate with the property owners to the east in order to obtain a more efficient design. 9 . 2 The supply of piped water in Newtonville is restricted hence limiting residential development to a maximum of 345 units . In consideration of the limited water supply and the restricted number of units, Schedule 9 . 6 of the Town of Newcastle Official Plan was created. Hence extending the hamlet boundaries would alter the balance between available water connections and developable land. 10 . CONCLUSION 10 . 1 As the purpose of this report is to address the requirement of a Public Meeting under the Planning Act and in consideration of the outstanding comments, it is recommended that this application be referred back to Staff.
