PAGE 18, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 2. 1980, WHITBY Corridor N ~Ju Capers By MARY MCEACH4ERN K-MART PLAZA AND RESTAURANT Thanks Joe! The residents in the area would like to thank Joe Drumm for making sure no relief is in sight from traffic, garbage, odours and noise-even on Sundays. Joe seems to feel that Corridor residents are capable of trouncing him on the old noggin. Tut, tut, Joe, you have every right to your morally rights and your morally dishonests, whatever they may be. If you choose to trust all developers and believe they can do no wrong, thats your problem. When you create undo hardships for our neighbours, that something else. Don't let your contempt for C.B.C. distort your usual collective reasoning. Just to show you we still love you Joe, I've dashed off a little ditty. Sorry, the time element would not permit more than a few lines. Maybe you're lucky! TO JOE, OUR EAST WARD COUNCILLOR Kicking councillors in the head Joe, Is just not our style. But we'll generate an idea, You might consider worthwhile. There's a place far more fitting, Slightly south of your crown. The ideal location for kicking, Would be about-one meter down. Sitting on your morals may hurt, But it won't be a Corridor elf. 125TH ANNIVERSARY 1855-1980 THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWN OF WHITBY The Planning Act NOTICE OF THE PASSING OF A BY-LAW BY THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWN-OF WHITBYTO REGULATE LAND USE PURSUANT TO SECTION 35OF THE PLANNING ACT TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Town of Whitby has passed By-law 966-80 on the tenth day of March, 1980, pur- suant to the provisions of Section 35 of The Planning Act.

Michael Commissioner of Planning Emm seeks legal advise on plaza By MICHAEL KNELL Free Press Staff One Whitby councillor is upset about council's decision to allow the expan- sion of the K-Mart Plaza at the corner of Kendalwood Road and Dundas Street East. Specifically, Regional Councillor Gerry Emm is concerned about the restaurant for the proposed scheme. Emm said that "the of- ficial plan (for the area) doesn't allow for a free stan- ding building." He said that when the plaza was built, provision was made for the two present buildings to be ex- panded but not for another free standing building to be constructed. "I'm opposed to a restaurant of that type when it breaks the official plan and I'm seeking legal advise from the regional solicitor," Emm said pointing out that the plan must now go to regional council for its ap- proval. Emm also pointed out that the original approval was given for a plaza, not for a shopping centre and such a change would require an of- ficial plan amendment. He is concerned about the location of the historical cairn commemorating the site of the original church founded by Dr. Robert Thor- ton. "It's an insult to the cairn to have it (the restaurant) so' close," Emm said adding that it has been moved once before to accommodate the plaza. He also said that the plaza should "add to, not take away from this monument." Emm said that he is also against the identification sign that the developer plans to put up and suggested that it is not in accordance with present town regulations. The sign, according to Emm, will be 32 feet or four stories high and he is sure that this breaks the bylaw. While Emm says that he does "endorse signs on business property in the town" the planning board has "reversed" its position in this case from previous recommendations. "They been against signs" of this type in the past," he said. Emm said that he has taken the only course of ac- tion open. to him at the moment in approaching the Region of Durham's legal- experts for their opinion although he said he will take up the matter again should it come before regional coun- cil as an official plan amen- dment.
