Linda He1las, Bird and Hale Limited, 1263 Bay Street, Toronto, M5R 2C1, advised that the Town of Newcastle Waterfront Study which encompasses 31km of shoreline, has been prepared by Bird and Hale Limited in conjunction with Walker, Nott, Dragicevic Associates Limited, Mar-Land Engineering Limited and Read, Voorhees and Associates Limited. The Town of N ewcastle Waterfront Study will provide crucial input into the Official Plan Review process and will provide policies and direction that recognize the inter-dependence of all components of the environment. Representatives of various government agencies and organi2ations, along with major land owners and/or their consultants were contacted and interviewed in person or by telephone for information pertinent to this study. Ms. Hellas displayed an aerial view of the waterfront area and noted that it has been divided into 12 sections which merit individual attention. She noted that the next two phases of the project will include a recreation waterfront land use plan and the preparation of a Secondary Plan for the Village of Newcastle. She encouraged public participation and input. . . . G.P.& II ~utes - 3 . October 5, 1992 PUBLIC MEETINGS CONT'D. Boris Mather, 485 Kingston Road, Suite 505, Toronto, M4L 1V6, advised that he is President of Citizens for a Lakeshore Greenway, a non-profIt, volunteer association whose aim it is to promote a Lakeshore Greenway from Burlington to Port Hope. He circulated a letter dated October 5, 1992, wherein he advises that he fmds the Town of Newcastle Waterfront Study to be extensive and thorough, however, he noted three areas of concern, namely: West Side Beach Marsh, The Wilmot Creek Retirement Community and the Waterfront Trail east of Bond Head. He referred to page 34 of the Town of Newcastle Waterfront Study which indicates that the Provincial Policy of May, 1992 is described as having the objective "to insure no loss of Provincially signifIcant wetlands". However, on page 36, it is pointed out that St. Marys Cement Corporation is licensed to quarry the marsh which they own and the ~eral Aggregate Resources Policy Statement supports this project. He, therefore, concurs with the report which states that these are two conflicting planning directions to municipalities. He further stated that "public enjoyment of a Greenway System depends on connections being made by foot or bicycle on scenic and safe trails doing a minimum amount of environmental damage". PhyIlia Baker, 11 Cabot Court, Newcastle, LlB lA7, appeared on behalf of the Wilmot Creek Homeowners' Association and expressed support for the formulation of a long-term strategy for the Town of Newcastle Waterfront. She advised that the shoreline is very wet and stoney and this could jeopardize the safety of people walking along the lakeshore. Access by the public to the shoreline will create an intrusion on the privacy of the residents of Wilmot Creek. David !tire, Rice c..pilill Group, 17 Dean Street, Brampton, L6W 1M7, appeared on behalf of the residents of WIlmot Creek and advised the Committee that the Wilmot Creek community is an industry in itself as it represents approximately 1,000 homes and, eventually, approximately 1,500 homes. He articulated his objection to the shoreline being accessed by the public because this will infringe on the privacy and the safety of the elderly residents of this community. He expressed his preference to have the public access the northerly portion of this area GonIon Carveth, 612 Mill Street South, R.R. #8, Newcastle, LlB lL9, is a resident of the Bond Head area and has recently spent approximately $200,000.00 to expand his property to the north and, therefore, does not want interim development of the N ewcastle Waterfront to interfere with private ownership of his land. He referred to page 195 of the Town of Newcastle Waterfront Study and suggested, what he feels to be, a more viable and economical route to accommodate cyclists and pedestrians. Erskine Duncan, Bond Head Community }o........;..tion, ?:1 Bolton Street, Newcastle, LIB lLO, expressed grave concerns pertaining to the severe erosion problem at the comer of Bolton Street and Lakeshore Road. He suggested that erosion control measures be taken inunediately. . . . G.P.& A. ~utes - 4- October 5, 1992 PUBLIC MEETINGS CONT'D. Ruth Hinkley, 158 Wihnot Trail, Newcastle, Lffi lBO, expressed support for the comprehensiveness of the study and advised that, before any trail system be undertaken, the fIrst priority should be the initiation of erosion control measures. Tom Januszewski, 14 SuIicara Court, Toronto, M4A 2G9, made reference to the "Niagara-on-the-Lake" project and endorsed the principles and objectives of the contents of the Town of Newcastle Waterfront Study. He referred to the importance of the growth and development of the waterfront in Bowmanville but questioned the associated costs. He noted the importance of the safe preservation of the eroding bluffs and the desirability of living close to the lakeshore. Gordon White, Box 21, Group 2, ltR. #2, Bowmanville, L1C 3K3, appeared on behalf of the Port Darlington Community Association and expressed support for the contents of the Town of Newcastle Waterfront Study. He, however, noted one concern pertaining to the impact that the activities of St. Marys Cement and the Darlington Nuclear Generating Station will have on the Cedarcrest area Resolution #GPA-617-92 Moved by Councillor Dreslinski, seconded by Councillor Hannah THAT the Committee recess for a period of ten minutes. IlCARRIED" The meeting reconvened at 11:10 am. Acting Mayor II Dreslinski chaired this portion of the meeting. Bill Stewart, 25 Bennett Road, Bowmanville, L1C 3K5, requested that, until such time as the waterfront is developed, developers lease their waterfront lands to farmers who would be very willing to cultivate this farmland. Anna Millburn, Group 5, Box 29, ltR. #2, Bowmanvil1e, L1C 3K3, advised that she is a new resident of the Cedarcrest area and expressed concerns pertaining to invasion of her privacy, protection of her private property and expropriation of privately owned lands.

G.P.& II ~utes - 5 - October 5, 1992 PUBLIC MEETINGS CONT'D. DELEGATIONS Bill Cohuillo, Box 44, Bowmanville, L1C 3K8 noted opposition to this proposal because it will create disastrous traffic conditions, disturb the existing water table and cause problems to wells and he stated that the development is not compatible to the existing neighbourhood because the density is too high. He suggested that all residential development be put on hold until such time as the Town of Newcastle's industrial tax base is increased. Noone spoke in support of this application. Bryce Jordan, G.M. Bernas and A.......u.t.eB Limited, 110 Scotia Court, Unit 41, Whitby, L1N 8Y7, advised that this development will generate the addition of approximately 1,800 persons and that the designation of Green Road as an arterial road is not really necessary for the development of this plan as access to this site could be made through Aspen Springs. (b) Mopro Construction - Report PD-206-92 - the purpose and effect of this application is to implement the development of a mixed use project containing 2160 m2 of retail and personnel service floor space and 2070 m2 of residential floor space. Leeann Muir, 1675 Highway No. 2, Courtice, resides directly across the road from this site and expressed concerns pertaining to the adverse impact that the development will have on the residents' wells and the dangerous situation which has been created because the applicant has installed his driveway directly across the road from her driveway. Noone spoke in support of this application. Stephen King, Architect, 235 Kenilworth Ave., Toronto, M4L 387, displayed a revised site plan of the development and noted that the construction and character of the new buildings will be compatible with the existing neighbourhood. (c) Michael, Stewart and Alan Clarke - Report PD-207-92 - the purpose and effect of this application is to implement the conditions of draft approval issued on Plan of Subdivision 18T-89007, by rezoning Block 20 to an Environmental Protection (EP) Zone.

He questioned the recommendation of denial of his application when so many agencies have rendered positive comments on the application. He advised that retirement homes will be built on the property in three years and, therefore, the land will not be used for recreational motorcycle races after that time. (c) Sam Cureatz, 21 King Street East, Newcastle, LlB 1H3 - re: Report PD-210-92 - was called but was not present.

He noted that the provisions of the encroachment agreement make his client's house almost valueless. He requested relief from the provisions of the encroachment agreement in the following manner: 1. that the period of notice be extended, 2. that the agreement be made transferable, and 3. that Paragraphs 3, 6 and 8 of the agreement be made substantially fairer.
