" 3.0 REVIEW AND COMMENT 3 . 1 The locations where the Town owns property on Lake Ontario and where a considerable amount of erosion is occurring are: Location l: Waverly Road and Block 'A' of Registered plan no. 659 (Attachment No.2) 191 m (626 feet) Location 2 : Lot on Cedar Crest Beach (Attachment No.2) 31 m ( 100 feet) Location 3: Park Street (Unopened) , Bondhead, (Attachment No. 3) 10 m (33 feet) I Location 4 : Edge of Road Allowance, Lakeshore (Attachment No.3) 72 m (236 feet) { �j . . . 3 REPORT NO. : WD-61-91 PAGE 3 3.2 Method of Erosion Protection The type of erosion protection which is recommended and which several of the property owners have used is illustrated on Attachment No.4 . 3.3 Estimated Cost The estimated cost for the recommended protection is $175/foot. Location Length Cost/ft. Estimated No. (feet) Cost 1 626 $175 2 $109,550 100 $175 17,500 3 33 $175 5,775 4 236 $175 41,300 TOTAL $174,125 3 .4 Erosion Protection Works Installed B r Residents The residents on Cedar Crest Beach Road and on Boulton Street have, in 1991, spent a considerable amount of money to provide erosion protection on each side of the Town owned lot on Cedar Crest Beach Road (Location 2) and on Boulton Street (Location 3) . It is important that the Town provide protection at these two locations to protect against the protection provided on the adjacent properties from being undermined by erosion occurring on the Town property and the water undermining the adjacent works from behind. It is therefore recommended that erosion rotection be Provided at Locations 2 and 3 as illustrated on Attachment Nos 2 and 3 and that the funds be obtained from Account No. 2900-1-8 Working Funds Reserve 3 .5 Erosion Protection on Locations 1 and 4 Erosion protection should also be provided at Locations 1 and 4 . However, because of the high cost, it is recommend that provision be made in the 1992 capital Bud et for Council's consideration for erosion protection at Locations 1 and 4 . . .4 I REPORT NO. : WD-61-91 PAGE 4 Respectfully submitted, Recommended for presentation to the Committee, — -------------------- -- ------ - --------------- Walter A.

The Spring run off has not yet begun in earnest and already we are experiencing serious land/soil erosion, due to wave action. - To halt this we have enlisted the services of R.M.Construction, of 262 Main Street, Acton, Ontario L7J 1W9, a division of 560789 Ontario Limited, who have been awaiting the rubber stamping of their engineering plans in Lindsay. The. present scenario is this : the design erosion factor in the documents at the Ministry of the Environment is three centimetres per year - we personally have lost a swathe of approximately six feet at the base of' the bank and three feet at the top within the last six months . I understand the lake to be ten inches higher now, and a possible additional seven to ten inches more before the end of Spring, above normal lake levels. R.M. Construction are ready to begin the work - so far no one from the Town of Newcastle has been to view the damage, no assistance has been offered financially though we are all paying taxes into the Town of Newcastle. I have spoken with a Mr. Larry Hannon , Mr. Frank Stapleton, Mr. Gord Mills ' secretary, etc. Our property has an additional problem in that there exists a Town road allowance between our property and Mr. A. Wynne ' s property which ends at the lake , an extension of Park St . We had previously offered to purchase this road , half each , but this was refused because one neighbour to t-lie North , a cottager , objected . To i finish the work properly the blocks to protect the shoreline need to cross the end of this r .,ad allowance to reach Mr . t��ynne ' s property where tl-ir- construct. ion will end some fifteen feet-. into his property . Since no financial assistance has been offered we feel t he v(-,r�- least t ho Town can dc, 1 .9 to f i nance this part of the work. . ,gym =.��r -� �' --u .•,1i wee -,i-iz rE,.�sc,ni na ! i ATTACHMENT N0, 1 0 0 WD-v1-91 i 0 2 . . . A further problem compounding the whole situation is that the Newcastle Marina West Pier, shaped as it is, now prevents- the natural movement of sand along the shore, West to East, therefore no further beach build up has been happening since the shape was changed. The beach to the West of that pier is now very wide. The Town of Newcastle spends many thousands of dollars each year dredging the mouth of the Marina of sand which then goes to a landfill . I understand that once dredged it cannot go back into the lake - this means less beach and more erosion. Even the dredged material would be useful to the east of the pier. There is no time to waste; all property owners along the shoreline have agreed to the work being done and we shall face the challenge of exacting financial assistance from the Town as soon as possible. In the meantime, I hope you are able to act quickly to enable the work on the road allowance shore to be done at the same time as the private work. Sincerely, I hope you are able to understand the problem and I look forward to your earliest reply. O—r J. M.
