RPino1Prs & Al-v-iates ('..m..rIA Limited, together with Tony In......''''''. Jack Ellis and Carolyn Wnnolbmd, presented to Committee the conceptual report for the Bowmanville Waterfront. Mr. Douglas indicated that public participation started in March, 1990 and that the plan must be adopted as an OffIcial Plan Amendment. The main planning issues to be addressed in the plan are the importance of the area for the development of Regional and local recreation and tourist opportunities; suitability of the existing development; need to identify and preserve SignifICant wetland areas for their ioherent natural function and the future enjoyment of the public; need to improve access to the area from the built portions of Bowmanville; need to resolve or mitigate land use conflicts internal and nearby to the planning area; development of an integrated open space recreational park system; and recognition of the role of both private and public sector in the development of new sites as well as the redevelopment of the existing built-up area. The goals of the plan are to provide a comprehensive plan to guide the use of the waterfront that ha1ances the need for public access, environmental protection, recreational use, tourism and residential growth; to establish an identity for the area based on its unique waterfront setting, historical aspects, environmental components, and landscape resources; and to recognize the importance of the waterfront to achieve an improved quality of life for local residents. Mr. Douglas stressed that this plan is intended to be a long-term plan. John Wmters, R.R.#2, Bowmanville, L1C 3K3, questioned the objectivity of the report prepared by F.J. Reinders and Associates and raised many questions with respect to the land uses identified in the report. Mr. Wmters indicated that an immediate solution to cleaning up the area would be more appropriate than a 15 - 20 year plan. Gordon White, Port Darlington Community ft........;..tion, Group 2, Box 21, R.R.#2, Bowmanvi11e, LlC 3K3, stated that the Association supports the concept of developing a vision of what the Bowmanville lakefront should be in future years, however, because the study deals only with the area bounded by the West Beach Road and Wilmot Creek, the Association feels that the accumulative impact of other land uses in the area are not anticipated. Of principle concern is the expanding quarry, cement production, cement hatching, rock crushing and dock operation of St. Marys Cement. The Association is requesting that further work on the study be held in abeyance until such time as Council is in a position to direct an expanded study to include the entire Bowmanville Waterfront. 2lJ6 G.P.A. Minutes '-' PUBLIC HEARINGS ""'" '-' - 7 - September 17, 1990 Gary Parks, I'n!ject Manager, Port Darlington Harbour Company, Box 226, Bowmanville, LlC 31m, advised Committee that it is the intention of the Port Darlington Harbour Company to continue operation of the barbour at the mouth of Barber's Creek in the former Township of Darlington. The company has recently been purchased by Mr. A. Wiggers and the short period of ownership has severely limited the input which they would like to ofTer with regard to the Bowmanville Waterfront Secondary Plan. However, the company is in the process of developing a revitalization program for the Bowmanville Harbour and its hopes for the immediate future on the West Beach is to continue to clean up and repair the existing structures with the support of current tenants. Their long term goal is to develop a marine resort which they feel would enhance and enrich the Bowmanville Harbour. With this in mind, the company does not see the need for the development of a new marina east of the Bowmanville Harbour. Ann Kroon, General Delivery, BowmanvilIe, LlC 3Kl, indicated her desire to receive a copy of the Bowmanville Waterfront Study and notification of any future meetings which are to be held with respect to this matter. Resolution #GPA-660-90 Moved by Councillor Stapleton, seconded by Mayor Hubbard THAT the Committee recess until 1:30 p.m. 'CARRIED" The meeting reconvened at 1:30 p.m. Bill Stewart, 25 Bennett Road, R.R.#4, BowmanvilIe, L1C 3K5, stated that he has no objections to the Waterfront Study, however, he has never felt that the citizens have had an active part in the process. He feels that if homeowners in the area are consulted they would be very williog to help build and maintain a walkway along the waterfront. Pat PingIe, 54 West Beach, BowmanvilIe, L1C 8Ka, indicated her support of the Waterfront Study and the actions of Council thusfar in the project, however, she disagrees with the recommendation in Section 2.8.1.4 of the Plan. The said section states that the continued maintaince of the existing buildings shall be permitted however the issuance of building permits for renovations or new works shall not be permitted. Mrs. Pingle stressed that renovations and rebuilding would be a definite asset to the area. Charmaine Dunn, 56 West Beach, Bowmanville, LlC 8Ka, raised concerns that no information has been given on the water quality of the lake or the amount of time needed to clean up the pollution. She also disagrees with the recommendation that building permits will not be issued for renovations or new works for the east and west beach. .'. ......7 / i i G.P.A Minutes ~ PUBLIC HEARINGS ~ ~ - 8- September 17, 1990 Allan Forster, Box 810, Thornhill, L3T 4A5, owns 400' of lake frontage which is now covered under this plan. He is concerned if development in this area is frozen he will be unable to sell his property. Frank I,npkhApt, Minister, Trinity United Church, 116 Church Street, Bowmanville, L1C 11'2, spoke in support of the Waterfront Study. He indicated that without such a plan the Waterfront will become an exclusive area for the wealthy and stated that it is an area which should belong to everyone in the Municipality. Evelyn Gingell, Box 211, Bowmanville, L1C 31m, advised Committee that people in the area were not adequatley informed of the Study. Brenda BEonnil', 73 East Beach Road, Group 1, Box 35, Bowmanville, L1C 3K3, indicated that she and her husband moved into the area with the hope that it would be improved upon. She is, however, opposed to much in the plan as it is not taking the area back to its original heritage. Mrs. Benny feels that the plan will force many of the residents to leave the area Larry Gold, Walker, Gold, Fox & Schwarz, 2040 Yonge Street, Suite 300, Toronto, M4S lZ9, representing the proponents of the N ewcastle-on-the- Lake Development planned for the area between Bennett Road and Lambs Road, spoke to Committee in support of the Waterfront Study. Mr. Gold indicated that Newcastle is at the forefront in the report submitted by The Honourable David Crombie on the Waterfront Area The Newcastle-on-the-Lake project is guided by the Crombie principles of providing public accessibility to the water, proximity to the waterfront, parkland dedications, and a waterfront promenade. The project has been conceptually designed to meet all of these criteria. Mr. Henry Kortekaas briefly explained the landscaping details of the Newcastle-on.the-Lake project. Rick Douglas, F.J. RMnders and A.......u.tes, gave a brief summation of the proposed Waterfront Study. Resolution #GPA-661-90 Moved by Mayor Hubbard, seconded by Councillor Hannah THAT the order of the agenda be altered to allow for consideration of Report PD-275-90. "CARRIED" 2U8 G.P.A. Minutes '-' PUBLIC HEARINGS DELEGATIONS ~ '-' .9- September 17, 1990 Resolution #GPA-662-90 Moved by Mayor Hubbard, seconded by Councillor Hannah THAT Report PD-275-90 be received and referred back to Staff; THAT a further public presentation be scheduled with homeowners in the subject area and, subsequently, a further report be prepared addressing the question of applying a freeze on all building permits for residential units versus units situated on lands owned by the Port Darlington Harbour Company; and THAT all interested parties listed in Report PD-275-90 and any delegations be advised of Council's decision. "CARRIED" (a) Margaret Noble, 45 Darlington Blvd S~ Oshawa, LlK :tAl, addressed Committee on behalf of residents of Darlington Blvd. with respect to the recommendations contained in Report PD-281-90. The residents are opposed to the placing of a park behind their properties on the east side of Darlington Blvd as it will limit the possibility of developing the properties, will generate increased traffic in the area and generate increased garbage. Mrs. Noble requested that further discussions take place with the residents before the park is developed (b) Cathie Percewicz, 19 Cherry BlOllSOm Cres., Bowmanville, LIE 100, addressed Committee on behalf of her husband Andrew with respect to Report PD-281-90. Mr. Percewicz believes the Corridor Study generally addresses the factors necessary to create an attractive development, however, the minimum requirement of wood fencing between the commercial developments and adjacent homes is insufficient to achieve an effective visual and sound barrier. With respect to the Rosebridge- Newcastle application, the area residents are in strong opposition to the height of the proposed 15 storey building. The 3 to 5 storey maximum outlined in the corridor study was, for many residents, as much as could be tolerated. Mr. Percewicz also objects to the 'bonusing clause" which permits the 3 to 5 storey height limit to extend to 7 stories. (c) John Wilson, 1421 King Street East, Oshawa, LlK lA3, addressed Committee with respect to Report PD-281-90 and stated that he is satisfied with the proposed 40' frontage requirement, however, he still desires a C1 zoning on his property.

Mr. Strike also addressed Committee with respect to Report PD-282-90 and indicated that the project of his client, Delbert Developments, was to proceed at the same time as the Markborough Properties project. However, the Delbert proposal is now approximately 2 to 3 years behind the Markborough project. Mr. Ron Strike addressed Committee with respect to Report PD-281-90 and advised that his clients, Mr. Flintissis and Mr. Floros, owners of land at 1422 King Street East, still wish to proceed with a C1 zoning on their land with a 40' frontage. (h) Bob Martinda1e, Greer Galloway Group, 660 King Street East, Suite 217, Osbawa, LlH 1G5, appeared before Committee on behalf of Townline Centre Inc. and registered his clients' surprise at fmding that their original designation for General Commercial zoning has been changed to Special Purpose Commercial and requested that this item be referred back to Staff for further discussion.
