Guiler Town Manager 40 Temperance Street BOWMANVILLE, Ontario L1C 3A6 Dear Mr. Guiler: Growth Management Study Newcastle/Hydro Agreement Consultants' Submissions The five submissions forwarded to us September 11, 1979 have now been examined and the following observations are made to provide you with our thoughts on them: 1) We have no adverse comment on any of the five companies. 2) The submissions from Currie, Coopers and Lybrand and Clayton Research Associates speak to a wider range of studies of growth areas than do the other submissions, indicating to us that they have achieved a better understanding of the range and scope of the study's intent. 3) While the establishment of a lot levy as part of a Financial Analysis is a prime need for the development of a growth strategy, we feel that the terms of reference to the selected consultant should specify a broadened area of study to cover the intent of the "Agreement" , to include those subjects listed in the I.B.I. report to the Town of Newcastle, pages 9 and 10 of the Town of Newcastle/Darlington Generating Station, Impact Monitoring Program report. 4) The final terms of reference to your selected consultant should include a listing of those impacts spoken to in the Newcastle/Hydro Agreement. It is our proposal to you that the visibility of such impacts in the growth study, be established in the best manner possible to serve as base data for measurements, under the Agreement. r r. N z J =( s) .i MR. A. GUILER 1979 10 02 We will be pleased to consult further on your selection of a candidate for the proposed Growth Management Study.
