The Director of Planning and Development made a presentation to the

"Urban Areas", which are varied in size, distinct and separated; "Rural Areas",
which provide large blocks of agricultural land, outdoor recreational
opportunities and urban separators; "Transportation Systems", which connect
all activities; and "Utilities and Services", which meet the needs of the various
settlement areas. Mr. Wu outlined the Town's concerns wbich are
highlighted in the Appendix to Report PD-311-90.
(a) Mr. Mark Tomina, R.R.N's, Bowmanville, LlC 3K4, addressed Committee

(d) Mr. Irwin Hamilton, 1 Division Street, P.O. Box 39, Bowmanville,
L1C 3Ka, addressed Committee on behalf of Mr. Kevin Tunney with
respect to Report PD-311-90. Mr. Hamilton requested that the Report be
tabled because it is an extremely important issue and the public has been
given a very short time frame in wbich to voice their concerns.
Mr. Hamilton feels there are some serious inconsistencies with the report,
i.e., Bowmanville has been identified as a Major Growth Node, however,
what Town Planning Staff is recommending will take away from
Bowmanville as a Major Growth Node. Also, Mr. Hamilton feels that the
inclusion of Orono as a Major Development Area is a serious error.
(I) Mrs. H. Dianne Sutter, Br.unA1ffi Limited, 1867 Yooge Street, Toronto,
M4S lY5, indicated that Bramalea Limited has now secured the property
at the Port of Newcastle and is proceeding with background studies for
their proposal. She indicated that the population restrictions identified in
Report PD-311-90 will seriously impact on their project. Mr. Philip
Weinstein, of Bramalea Limited, also voiced concern with the
recommended population level of the Village and stated that, if they are
appoved, the negotiations for their project will be compromised
