Libby RacanskylFriends of Farewell, 3200 Hancock Road, Courtice, LIE 2Ml

Joe Domitrovic, 3872 Courtice Road, Courtice, LIE 2L5 advised Council that
he will be appealing Council's decision to deny his Official Plan Amendment
Application to the Ontario Municipal Board. He believes that Staff
Report PD-152-97 contains incorrect information in Sections 4.2, 7.1, 7.6, 7.7,
8.4, 8.6 and 8.7. Mr. Domitrovic circulated a petition containing approximately
2000 signatures in support of his application.

would not be addressing Council.

Linda MacGregor, 40 Boulton Street, Newcastle, LIB lL9 reiterated her
October 14, 1997 request to allow no further building south of the Coastal
Road in the Port of Newcastle development. She is aware that this building has
been approved for Phase 1 but stated that the present proposal does not meet the
definition of "coastal villa" found in Phase 1.
Jack Eilbeck, 626 Mill Street, Newcastle, LlB lCl reiterated the concerns he
outlined to Council on October 14, 1997 with respect to the Port of Newcastle
development and advised that he also has concerns related to the level of noise
emanating from the property which was experienced by the area residents over
the summer months.
Patsy Scott, 514 Mill Street South, Newcastle, LIB lC2 was called but was not
present.
John Campbell, 250 Baldwin Street, Newcastle, LIB lCl addressed Council with
respect to the Port of Newcastle development. He indicated his concern with the
"hole-in-the-wall" access to the property, the possibility of the restrictions placed
on the 250 room hotel being amended and the fact that stopping the issuance of
building permits will not stop construction as the permits are issued for blocks of
construction at one time.
Erskine Duncan, 27 Boulton Street, Newcastle, LlB lL9 advised that he would
not be addressing Council.
Ron Webb, Kaitlin Group, 1209 McNicoll Avenue, Scarborough, MIW 3W6,
advised Council that his client relied on the previous decision of Council in the
approval of Phase 2 of the Port of Newcastle development and has made
commitments to servicing and sales contracts. He stated that a municipality's
credibility depends in large part on the dependability of it's decisions.
Reconsidering approval of the development could jeopardize Kaitlin's
commitments to the municipality.
