Another entrance into the propos- ed new development will be from Water Street via a road allowance which now runs beside the Crandells Restaurant. Mr. McDermott said he favours use of this Water Street entrance for the residential component of the Wrong name A story on page one in last week's Port Perry Star about a house fire referred to Rob Brown as one of the men who assisted in bringing fami- ly members to safety.

PORT PERRY STAR 235 Queen Street 985-7383 development and traffic to the mall should use the Highway 7A entrance. He also said that maintenance of this entrance could be a problem in the future for the municipality unless it is spelled out clearly who is responsible for the up-keep of the road. On other issues relating to this large development, at least two members of council said the size (54,000 square feet) of the commer- cial component is not a problem, a view that was not shared by Mr. McDermott. He' questioned the viability of so much new commer- cial space suddenly coming on the market in Port Perry, especially if current population growth patterns don't hold up over the next few years. However, councillors Lawrence Malcolm and Don Cochrane told the meeting they are not concerned about that factor (commercial space). "Port Perry has become the hub of the Region with very high traffic volumes along Highway 7A,' said councillor Malcolm. "I prefer the commercial assess- ment because that's what brings in more taxes," he stated.

Otter Financial Corporation of Toronto first unveiled plans for this massive proposal about a year ago. Development of the commercial sector of the proposal could proceed with some minor zoning amend- ments. However, the residential aspect requires changes to the zon- ing by-laws and the Regional Of- ficial Plan. At the conclusion of Monday's meeting with Mr. McDermott, coun- cillors instructed him to meet with the planners for the development in an effort to find the best and safest way to route traffic into the plaza. Court action (From page 1) Last year, Township council turn- ed down a request for a zoning amendment relating to the 45 acre property. Meanwhile, in an un-related mat- ter, a charge of breaching the zon- ing by-law filed by the Township against Frank's Restaurant in Caesarea will be heard in court February 9. The municipality has charged the restaurant with bringing in live bands, contrary to zoning by-laws. Two weeks ago, Township council turned down a request from the restaurant for a zoning change to permit the hiring of live bands after the two sides were unable to come to an agreement on site plan for the restaurant. In boch the Franks Restaurant and Manderson case, Township council received complaints from _ residents living nearby.
