Mayor Hamre advised of her attendance at two events held in the Town of
Newcastle over the week-end. She and Councillor Dreslinski attended a
baseball tournament which was held at Memorial Park with proceeds going to
the Juvenile Diabetes Association. The facility was impressive and Staff were
very co-operative. On Saturday, the Ontario Annual Life Guard Competition
was held at the Fitness Centre. Because this event had been cancelled in the
budget allocations for 1992, Staff volunteered their time and seeked sponsors
for the holding of this event. Mayor Hamre commended Staff on their
dedication and enthusiasm which led to the successful staging of this event.

Moved by Councillor Dreslinski, seconded by Councillor Scott
THAT all volunteers who took part in the Ontario Annnal Life Guard
Competition be commended on their efforts and thanked, FORTHWITH.
"CARRIED"
Pursuant to Section 34, Subsection 12 of the Planning Act, the Town of
Newcastle Council, through its General Purpose and Administration
Committee, is holding a Public Meeting for the following Rezoning
Applications:
(a) Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment - Part Lot 16, Concession 1, former
Township of Darlington - Martin Road Holdings/Kaitlin Group Ltd; and
(b) Proposed Zoning By-law Amendment - Part Lot 13, Concession 2, former
Township of Clarke - Stapleton Bros.
Before proceeding with this matter, the Chairman asked the Deputy Clerk to
advise on the manner of notice.
The Deputy Clerk advised that public notices for all rezoning applications
were sent by fIrst class mail on or before June 19, 1992 to all property
owners within 120 metres of the subject property in accordance with the
latest municipal assessment record. In addition, notices were also posted on
sites prior to June 19, 1992. This notice procedure is in compliance to
Ontario Regulation 404/83.
The Chairman announced that all persons wishing further notice of the
passage of the by-law should leave their name, address and telephone number
with the Clerk's Department before they leave.
The Chairman announced that the Director of Planning and Development
would describe the purpose and effect of the proposed amendments, then the
objectors would be heard, followed by the supporters and the applicant.
(a) Martin Road Holdings/Kaitlin Group - Report PD-167-92 - the purpose
and effect of the application is to rezone a strip of land from
"Enviromnental Protection (EP)" to the same "R4" zoning on the abutting
property which has been previously approved for 85 apartment units.
No one spoke in opposition to or in support of this application.
The applicant was present to answer questions from the Committee.

(b) Stapleton Bros. - Report PD-168-92 - the purpose and effect of the
application is to rezone a 4.94 hectare property for the temporary use of
motorcycle racing up to a maximum of three (3) years.
Sam Cureatz, 21 King Street East, Newcastle, LIB lH3, appeared on
behalf of Mr. and Mrs. Jim Hale and Walter Hale to articulate objection
to this proposal. He advised members of the Committee that, pursuant
to the preparation of Report PD-168-92, Mr. Jim Hale has contacted the
Town and stated his objection in written form. He requested that the
Committee exercise caution during the process of this application and
that the same fIrm requirements which apply to Mosport Park should
also be required from this applicant.
EvyIin Stroud, 89 Little Avenue, Bowmanville, LIC lJ9, referred to
Paragraph 2.1 of Report PD-168-92 which describes the site as possessing
a "distinctive natural environment" and where "Provincially rare plant
species have been found". She has extremely grave concerns that this
site is inappropriate for dirt bike racing activity.
The following persons spoke in support of this application:
.
Cathryn Holden, expressed support for this application because it is a
family oriented type activity and the racing events are attended by two
volunteers who man a first-aid trailer and are in possession of a cellular
phone.
Maurice O'Neill, 2675 Reid Road, lLR. #1, NewtonviIle, LOA lJO, advised
that he is the closest neighbour to the east and has lived on this
property for 40 years. Two racing events have been held in the past and
he has no concerns pertaining to noise. He said that the cattle are
turned back to pasture after the termination of the race. The owners of
the property clean up all garbage and debris after the race. He
expressed support for this type of activity which is attended by families
on Sunday. He feels that it is advantageous to use a track for dirt bike
racing rather than public roads.
A nPigl>hnur who resides at Lots 9 and 10, Com-i... 2, approximately
800 yards east of the site advised that his three sons had been involved
in riding motorcycles. He noted that, while members of the racing club
are riding, repairing and tuning up their machines they are not "hanging
out" on street corners.
.
John V....v;n,.." lLR. #1, CampbeIIcroft, LOA lBO, a director of the
Lakeshore Dirt Bikers Association for 15 years, informed the Committee
that the members of this club range in age from 4 years to over 65 years
of age. A safety check is done on all bikes prior to the race and racers
wear proper safety attire at all times. First-aid is available at every race
and racing sites are rotated and supervised. Fourteen races have been
planned from April to October, 1992. The Lakeshore Dirt Riders
Association is a non-profIt organization which charges a yearly
membership fee of $40.00 and $5.00 per race to each racer. The club
does not charge admission fees to spectators. Each racing event has
approximately 120 riders with approximately 200 spectators in
attendance.

Paul Dundaa, R.R. #4, Port Hope, LlA 3V8, Vice-President of the
Lakeshore Dirt Riders Association, advised that the site to be used for
dirt bike racing, because of the topography of the land, cannot be
cultivated. He ioformed the Committee that a sound meter is used to
determine the level of the noise emanating from the dirt bikes and if the
sound exceeds the 115 decibel mark, the bike is removed from the track
until the silencer to muffie the sound is repacked. During a race, sound
levels taken from the property line range between 70 and 80 decibels.
The Lakeshore Dirt Bikers Association are a family oriented club who
hold races on Sundays, not on long week-ends and who donate the
proceeds from the races to Toronto's Sick Children's Hospital.
Terry HoIingsworth. 4240 Cone ~nn &ad 4, R.R. #1, Orono, LOB lMO,
has been the owner of a farm located to the north of the site for 26
years. He feels this site cannot be cultivated. He noted that the races
are very well managed and the sites are left clean after the race. His
family business has not been adversely affected by this activity and it is
his intention to take his children to these races.
.
SI1...m... Vandertool, 2221 Stapleton Road, Orono, LlB lL9, is the closest
neighbour to the south and advised that the dirt bike races do not
generate excessive noise and that it is a good family oriented type of
event.
Gordon Ewington, 4298 Stapleton Road, Orono, LlB lL9, advised that he
has recently moved to the area of Stapleton Road and Highway #2 and,
as an owner of two motorcycles, has no objection to this application.
Marvin Stapleton, 2100 Stapleton Road, R.R. #8, Newcast1e, LlB lL9,
ioformed the Committee that this 605.acre parcel of land was purchased
by his great great grandfather, James Stapleton, in 1850. He is willing
to guarantee the Committee that only four races will be held each year
and, to adhere to his neighbour's request, races will not be held during
the months of June and July. He advised that the site proposed for dirt
bike racing is too steep and sandy to cultivate. He noted that the
garbage generated by spectators can be contained in three garbage bags
during clean up after an event. He does not feel that the noise from the
dirt bike racing event disturbs the cattle; if anything, milk production is
up after a race. He circulated a letter dated July 10, 1992 from the
Ministry of Agriculture and Food which states that they "will not object
to this proposal provided that the by-law fully addresses the following
points:
1. this is a temporary use,
2. no buildings will be erected on the site,
3. that the site of the parking area is not altered by the placement of
gravel or asphalt."
.
He circulated a letter dated July 14, 1992 from the ~ry of Natural
Resources which states that "there are no significant natural resources on
site and as such we have no objections to the application". He further
advised that no revenues are generated from this family oriented type of
recreational activity. He is willing to meet the requirements of all
agencies for the approval of this application.

July 20, 1992
R. Martindale, Director of Planning. The Greer Galloway Group Inc. re:
Senior Citizens' Centre Feasibility Study - advised that his company had
been retained by the Town of Newcastle in August 1991 to evaluate the
need for a Senior Citizens' Facility for the Town of Newcastle. He
thanked Members of the Steering Committee and Members of Staff for
their co-operation in the preparation of the Final Report of the Seniors
Activity Centre Feasibility Study circulated to Members of the Committee
on July 17, 1992. The Study addresses fIve distinct phases, each of
which is given a separate chapter in the report:
Phase I - all relevant background information which was collected
Phase II - a comprehensive public participation program
Phase ill - needs and opportunities analyzed in detail
Phase IV - development options, and
Phase V - recommendations and formulation of an implementation
strategy.
The present seniors' segment of the population is approximately 8,050 to
grow to 10,635 by the year 1996 and approximately 13,245 by the year
2001. Three groups have an immediate need for larger facilities:
Community Care, The Residents' Recreation Activity Program (RAP) and
the "55 Plus Movin' and Groovin' Club". He advised that several of the
municipalities studied during the process are smaller than the Town of
Newcastle or have fewer seniors. He noted that, not only does this type
of facility provide suitable space for seniors' programs ranging from
ceramics to fItness classes to dances, but they also offer a comfortable
atmosphere where patrons can stop by for a cup of coffee, play a game of
darts or billiards or enjoy a nutritious lunch. Three different
development options were explored: the most traditional but usually the
most expensive approach which would be for the Town to develop a new
Seniors Centre; the cheaper but less flexible option of enlarging or
converting an existing public building to a seniors facility; and the most
cost effective but somewhat riskier and more complex would be the
alternative of developing a seniors centre, in partnership with the private
sector. In conclusion, he stated that a centre of approximately
14,000 sq. ft. can be justified for an anticipated membership of 900 senior
citizens by the year 2001. The fInal layout presented in the report for
discussion purposes indicates a two-storey facility. Phasing should be
considered whereby the second storey could be added later if deemed
appropriate. The initial phase of 11,355 sq. ft. could be built at a capital
cost ranging from $1,022,000 to $1,360,000 (1992 dollars) depending on
choice of materials and fmishes. Projected operating costs are estimated
at approximately $94,000 in the fIrst full year of operation while revenues
of $57,000 could be reasonably anticipated. The resulting defIcit of
$37,000 would have to be made up by a combination of municipal
subsidies and fundraising by the senior citizens.

Town if his request is granted.
