to be provided in accordance with the Town's requirements. Staff
note that the proposed building follows the basic recommendations
of the Baird Study and in doing so, helps to establish a basis for
further redevelopment along King Street in Bowmanville.
For the information of the Committee, the Bank of Commerce
has met the Town's requirements in respect of storm drainage and is
expected to meet the Town's requirement that sewer and water services
be provided from Temperance Street or King Street provided that there
is no disruption to the King Street road surface.
Staff recommend that the Planning and Development Committee
forward the attached development agreement already signed by officers
of the Bank of Commerce, to Council for execution.

1. That the Planning and Development Committee recommend
to Council that the attached development agreement be
