The location of these restaurants are based on a thorough analysis which indicates that corner locations adjacent to churches, schools and heavy traffic situations are ideal. A garbage "corral" will be attached to the building; pick-up and removal of garbage is done by McDonald's own contractors. Members of staff from McDonalds monitor the grounds to remove any garbage and litter. Exits and entrances to this site are presently being addressed with the Ministry of Transportation of Ontario to ensure the safety of the entire community. McDonalds has researched the Bowmanville area for approximately five years and it has been ascertained that this corner location is ideal because of the double traffic flow and high visibility factor. Liaison with Town of Newcastle staff has been undertaken to consider the feasibility of having a satellite installation at the Bowmanville Recreation Complex. McDonald's is willing to adhere to the Town of Newcastle's requirements and become an active part of this community. DELEGATIONS There were no delegations at this meeting. .
