More Bowmanville Apartments? Neetleton-Caeearee Newe by Mabel Cawker A rezoning application that would allow a high density apartment building building west of the New Darlington Mills subdivision in Bowmanville has been referred to planning staff for further study. The referral comes as a recommendation recommendation to Newcastle council after the General Purpose and Administration Administration committee heard concerns of residents Monday. Those addressing the committee said they were concerned with the increased increased density the zoning would allow. allow. William Daniell, on behalf of West Bowmanville Development Ltd., applied to the town for a rezoning rezoning to permit development on the land west of Martin Road' and north of Baseline Road in Bowmanville. The rezoning would allow, among other things, a high density apartment apartment unit and three school blocks to be built. The apartment building, if the ap- lication were to be approved, would ack onto a ravine dirëctly west of residents already in the subdivision;' " Jack Julicher owns a house across from the designated area. He said he paid a "premium price" for a ravine lot. When he bought, he said, he knew development would be occurring across from him but he didn't know what kind. John Gray, another resident, said he wasn't opposed to the application in 'principle but felt apartments would lower the market value on his home and increase traffic in the area. He suggested putting thé apartment building in the north part of the development, development, south of the CPR line, which is designated for houses in the site plan. To ease the traffic problem, he suggested suggested investigating opening another road as well as upgrading the 401 and Holt Road interchange. "I have no objection to the plan if my concerns are met and the development development moves ahead in an orderly fashion," he concluded. Homeowners in the area held a discussion and information meeting on October 12 which representatives from the Town of Newcastle, the planning planning department and the developers attended. Residents were urged to write letters letters outlining their personal concerns concerns to the rezoning which Tom j Moyer presented to members of the rcbïhiffîttéfe.T'5 j|£5-Si5Sff.3?§r 9 : Mr. Moyer delivered 43 letters and said he didn't want to see any apartment apartment buildings in that area at all. Ted Cieciura, representative of the developer, said he was prepared to sit down with staff to review the problem of density. From the Editor's Mail A question to the TAXPAYERS TAXPAYERS and RESIDENTS. Do we want or need piece meal commercial development? development? One only has to walk east down King Street to see the results of commercial land owned by absentee landlords. However, I must commend the homeowners on King Street who have not surrendered their property and have maintained their homes against all odds. Are we now about to see the same results on Liberty Street South? Brick walls and parking lots (they do make attractive entrances to town?) Brick walls and parking parking lots because the proposed proposed development at the corner of Victoria Street calls for the demolition of the Victorian Victorian home plus the adjacent adjacent home with just such results. results. Brick walls and parking lots since there would be no direct access onto Liberty Street the traffic must exit onto side streets or possibly parallel back streets, (building would unlikely front on Liberty). It would ELECT PATRICK DEEGAN LOCAL COUNCILLOR WARD II appear that other than corner corner lots the commercial value value on Liberty Street property is nil. Therefore are centre area residents to be hemmed in by such development? Surely this would not be a one time use of the regional by-law, (hardly fair to other other corner owners). This law is partly designed for office use in residential areas. Have we not now created piece meal development? Ask the candidates if your neighbourhood could be next. With the traffic from the hospital, two stores, a service station, dozens of apartments, apartments, and the Memorial Park plus the local traffiq from the 401 there is hardly a need to create more traffic by turning south or north Liberty Street or any residential residential street for that matter into a commercial asphalt alley! alley!

') Rules on Wilmot Creek An application to include an additional 70 houses in Ridge Pine Park's Wilmot Creek development has been denied by a committee of Newcastle council. The General Purpose and Administration Committee, after public hearings on Monday, denied the application application because of the land tenancy tenancy problems presently occuring on part of the property. property. Roughly 50 Wilmot Creek residents have learned recently recently that when their land leases expire in 1998, their houses may be bulldozed. This is a result of a complicated complicated leasing arrangement in which they lease tne land from Ridge Pine who in turn lease the land from Ontario Hydro who lease it from Professor James Lovekin. Each party claims innocence in the dispute, but if the current current lease between .Lovekin and Ontario Hydrb runs its course the residents will lose their houses. • • ! Ward Three Councillor Frank Stapleton said "As councillor of the area I can't add to v the problems there until the present problems are resolved." Ridge Pine Park had filed an application with the Town to increase the density in the area, allowing for the building of 70 additional housing units. A representative from the Wilmot Creek Homeowners Association said the association association had no problems with the application other than the impact it would have on services in the area. He said the group had met with a company official from Ridge Pine and had been assured discussions would continue regarding services such as roads and water. Charles Gage, a resident of Wilmot Creek, asked the committee to deny the application. application. The committee objected to the application. Councillor Arnot Wotten said "At this time it would be foolish to let any more development development go on until we get this other matter fixed up." Councillor Diane Hamre Celebrated Birthdays on October 3rd My name is Crystal Lynn Little and this is my Grampa Merridith (Dick) Little. We celebrated our birthdays on October 3rd. Grampa turned 76 years and I turned 2 years. My mommy and daddy are Larry and Vera Little. 1 said there are many concerns concerns in that area, adding that many residents "see the municipality as being responsible, responsible, but it isn't." "Wilmot Creek has been a continual headache but council's hands are tied," she added. She also asked David Rice, Ridge Pine Park's representative, representative, why such an application application would be made when "the press is full" of their problems. Mr. Rice said this application application has been in the works for some time and Ridge Pine would not change their business because they had done nothing wrong.
