Council Minutes RECESS PRESENTATION DELEGATIONS - 3 - October 16, 1995 Resolution #C-695-95 Moved by Councillor Dreslinski, seconded by Councillor Novak THAT Council recess for 15 minutes in order to partake in a reception in the main lobby for the Apple Blossom Award Participants. "CARRIED" The meeting reconvened at 8:00 p.m. Chris Bieber, Central Ontario Electric, Scugog Street, Bowrnanville, LIC 3K8, made a presentation to Council announcing the new hydro rates in Courtice. He announced that Ontario Hydro has a new rate class known as UR2 which will mean a cost for Courtice residents of $88.10 for 1,000 kw hours of electricity. This cost compares to the Clarington Hydro-Electric Commission costs of $89.68 and the Ontario Hydro Rl rate of approximately $95.00. Lloyd Stephenson, 106 King Street East, Newcastle, LIB IHO, addressed Council with respect to the lack of parking on Prince Street, Bowmanville. He indicated that prior to construction of the street, parking was allowed. Now, although the road has been widened from 30 feet to 60 feet, parking has been discontinued. As this is the area near the hospital, Mr. Stephenson feels that there should be parking allowed for restricted amounts of time. Linda and Herb Gasser, P.O. Box 399, Orono, LOB IMO, addressed Council with respect to the incident of one of their dogs being killed and the other wounded for allegedly killing livestock in February 1995. Mrs. Gasser stated that she is still being denied a coherent explanation from the Municipality relating to this incident. On March 14 she filed under the Municipal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act to find out what livestock was supposedly killed, the circumstances under which the dogs were shot and by whom, and also the procedures governing the Livestock Act incidents and the care of injured animals. A fraction of the information was received and she has appealed the Municipality's decision to withhold the bulk of the information to the Privacy Commission. She indicated that the Municipality is in an extraordinary position in that it is allowed to withhold information, nothing more. Towns cannot hide behind discretionary powers given by legislation at taxpayers expense with immunity. The Gasser's are seeking justice and have stated that they will do everything in their power to prevent such a travesty of justice from re-occurring. Mrs. Gasser has been advised that the Municipality's procedures have been revised and she questioned when all interested parties will get copies of these new procedures. . . . Council Minutes DELEGATIONS - 4 - October 16, 1995 Al Strike, 38 King Street West, P.O. Box 7, Bowmanville, LIC 3K8, addressed Council with respect to Recommendation #6 in Report #1 (Report PD-107 -95). Mr. Strike advised Council that the application to the Land Division Committee made by Gordon White on behalf of John Fox, regarding Part Lot 11, Broken Front Concession, Darlington, was submitted only to correct title by severing private roads and rights-of-ways from the three parcels of land presently under the ownership of Mr. Fox. Donald Igbokwe, Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of Clarington, P.O. Box 36, Bowmanville, LIC 3K8, requested that Council proclaim the week of November 5 to 11, 1995 as Unity in Diversity Week. He also addressed Council on the topic of the prosperity of humankind. Councillor Novak made a declaration of interest with respect to the delegation of the Friends of the Farewell; vacated her chair and refrained from discussion on the subject matter. Councillor Novak indicated that she resides in the area to be addressed. Stan Racansky, Friends of the Farewell, 3200 Hancock Road, Courtice, LIE 2Ml, advised Council that the decision to designate D-6 and Rl as living areas is premature considering that the OMB hearing in regard to these areas has currently only been postponed pending funding for the Watershed/Sub-Watershed Study proposed for Courtice North and pending that the study will have an acceptable scope to be determined at the first steering committee meeting which has not yet occurred. Since this study is to determine which lands can be developed and to what extent, changing the population expectations at this time is also premature and in contradiction to the purpose of the study. Also in a July 8, 1994 submission by W.D.M. Consultants, Mr. Manson refers to trunk/sewer extensions funded by O.H.A.P. He is requesting that Council advise as to how much of the fund is left and who controls the fund. Mr. Racansky requested that Council recognize and officially record the request of the Friends of the Farewell to designate part of their property at 3200 Hancock Road and parts of adjacent properties covered by trees, including the new growth at the back of these properties, as a woodlot or, better, as a wetland where the water table is at or almost at the surface for most of the year. He indicated that this is a very special, very significant area of nature where any development should undergo the toughest scrutiny before any change in its hydrology, natural features or anything that cannot prove its sustainable development should be denied. Dan Holkema, Skylight Donuts, R.R. #2, Bowmanville, LIC 3K3, addressed Council with respect to Addendum to Report PD-104-95 listed under Unfinished Business on the agenda. He stated that if Council approves the zoning change and site plan against the recommendations of the Planning and Development Department, a great injustice will have been made against local business people. The applicant advised the General Purpose and Administration Committee that he wished to be treated on a level playing field with the plaza across the road from the proposed site as well as M & M Meats and the Video King Plaza. . . . Council Mum tes DELEGATIONS RECESS COMMUNICATIONS - 5- October 16, 1995 Mr. Holkema indicated that these facilities were all built prior to June 1991, the date which street front oriented building became a requirement for any central area as part of the Durham Regional Official Plan. Mr. Holkema stated that the existing building will need to have an addition to the front as well as to the east side and it becomes obvious that the cost of revamping the existing structure along with the addition would be similar to demolishing the structure and building a new one which would conform to the Durham Regional Official Plan. He requested that Council adopt the recommendations contained in Report PD-104-95 and deny the zoning amendment and site plan approval. Gordon White, 37 Windsor Valley Place, Courtice, LIE 114, addressed Council with respect to Item #6 of Report #1 (Report PD-107-95). Mr. White advised that the lots had been put for sale because of an assessment issue. One of the lots has been sold, one lot has an accepted offer on it and two lots have outstanding offers presently submitted. He advised that the Land Division Application was filed only in an attempt to clear a cloud on the title by severing the private roads and rights-of-ways from the three parcels of land presently under the ownership of his uncle Mr. Fox. Wayne Witzke, 150 Port Darlington Road, Bowrnanville, LIC 3K3, indicated that he resides in a home owned by the Municipality. Mr. Witzke advised that he only moved into the home in April 1995 as previous to that he and his wife were separated. He states, therefore, that he is not legally responsible for his wife's debt which was occurred prior to that time. He explained the process which the Municipality has gone through in court in an attempt to have the Witzkes evicted and in an attempt to have the arrears paid.
