Mr. D.M. Strike, Strike, Salmers and Furlong, 38 King Street West, P.O. Box 7,
Bowmanville, L1C 3K8, addressed Council with respect to a Development
Charges By-law Complaint filed by Earl and Valerie Walsh. Mr. Strike indicated
that in 1987 the house which existed on the property was destroyed by fire. The
property was bought by the Walsh's in 1989 and their intention was to build on
the property immediately. When Mr. Walsh applied for a building permit, he was
advised that one would not be able to be issued as the property had no frontage
onto an open public road. The Walsh's were able to purchase a strip of land
from owners of an adjacent property and, therefore, obtained a building permit
on November 27, 1996. At that time the lot development charge was paid.

Mr. Strike submitted that the reconstruction of the principal residence on this
rural property does not increase the need for services in the area and, therefore,
he believes that Development Charges By-law 92-lOS was applied in error.
The Honourable David Crombie, Waterfront Regeneration Trust, 207 Queens
Quay West, Suite S80, Box 129, Toronto, MSJ 1A7, presented a report regarding
the alternate location for St. Marys CBM operations. He indicated that in
November 1995, the Trust proposed a solution for issues related to the west side
of the marsh, containing the following elements:
· Protect most of the marsh and achieve "no net loss" of fisheries habitat;
· Move CBM stone crushing and ready mix to a suitable industrial location;
· Create 120 acres of parkland to protect the community;
· Close Waverley Road and provide another access to Cedarcrest Beach
Road; and
· Maintain St. Marys access to the desired quantity and quality of
limestone.
On July 2, 1996, Council requested that the Trust investigate sites for CBM and
report back. Mter considering all factors, the land with the best prospects for the
relocation is owned by Ontario Hydro's Darlington Nuclear Station. It is located
on the south service road at Maple Grove Road. He indicated that the Trust is
willing to raise the question of the availability of this property but needs a clear
request to Ontario Hydro from Council asking whether "in principle" this land
could be available at fair market value to help resolve the Westside Creek Marsh
Issue.
Brian Jung, Chairman, Clarke Museum Board, c/o Clarke Museum, P.O. Box 1S2,
Orono, LOB 1MO, thanked Council and staff for all of their work during
construction of the new storage building and invited all to attend the grand
opening scheduled for April 13, 1997 at 2:00 p.m.
Todd Hoffman, Chairman, Animal Advisory Committee, 20 Maple Street,
Haydon, L1C 3K2, presented a status report on the work to date of the Animal
Advisory Committee. He thanked Council for their interest in the relocation of
the animal shelter and requested that they ratify that decision during
consideration of the budget report. Mr. Hoffman indicated that the Committee
has tentatively scheduled an open house at the animal shelter for May 10, 1997
and requested Council's approval of the program. He also indicated that nearer
the end of the nine months of the mandate of the Committee, he feels that an
extension of that time frame will be requested.
