2 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, March 20, 1974 Council's Planning Leaves Visitors Standing by Bill Arnott Joseph F. Stepaniuk, gener- ai manager of Charter-Acres Ltd. stood before Newcastle Council, Monday, with a proposed plan for a new subdivision in his hand. He had sent a letter to council asking to formally present to council a proposed draft plan of a subdivision on lot 29, Concession 4, in the former Township of Clarke. Mr. Stepaniuk told council that he had been to see the regional planners and the Ministry of Housing and had been told to present the company's proposai to council for suggestions. Councillor Ivan Hobbs earlier made a motion that the plan should go to the planning advisory committee before it came to council. Action was delayed, on a position of authority, leaving Mr. Stepaniuk standing before council will no directive, on who to show the plan to and being denied the right to show it to council. Council members at this point began to debate wtith Councillor Ken Lyall on what authority the Newcastle council had on planning in the GMI LEAING NEW I1IAN MGHT OTHER. WILSE BUY. ASTRE COUPE 2-YR.

Councillor Lyall contends that the council has no authority in the area of planning, only the right to make an area plan to be submitted to the regional council, and that the Town of Newcastle bas to enter into an agreement with the region to attain the right to approve proposed development plans. This is according to the suggested plan for regional government, said Coun. Lyall as he read from the handbook. Couneillor Ivan Hobbs tak ing notice of Mr. Stepaniuk standing patiently waiting for directive, brought bis pligb t to the attention of council by stating, "This man shouldn't be standing before us and not knowing where to present it." Mayor Garnet Rickard reit erated this thought in stating that anyone who came to council to speak would be treated with courtesy and respect. Councillor Kirk Entwisle agreed with Councillor Lyall that council had no authority on pr osed plans, to which Council or Don Allin stated that he understood that it was the council's authority to advise on planning before it was sent to regional council. The motion put forward by Councillor Hobbs was carried with Councillor Lyall register- ing his vote against Formula 5000 (From Page One) all of North America," said Harvey Hudes, president and general manager of Mosport Park. The Can-Am will be run in two heats a sprint of 75 miles and a 125 mile feature. The format of the Formula 5000 race differs slightly. It will be staged in two qualifying heats and a feature. 'We feel the addition of the Formula 5000 event satisfies the spectators' taste for var- iety,' explained Bruce Elliot, president and general mana- ger of Labatt's Ontario Brew- eries. "The Can -Am features the unlimited power of Group 7, sports racing cars while Formula 5000 cars are thor- oughbred, open-wheeled rac- ing machines. The Formula 5000 event offers the addi- tional bonus of seeing two of Canada's finest racing drivers - Eppie Wietzes and Horst Kroll - competing against international stars," conclud- ed Elliot. Wietzes finished fifth in last year's seres and was elected Canada's racing driver of the year. This will mark the first appearance of the Formula 5000 cars at Mosport since 1970.

Unique Business (prom Page One) Over the years, one hears what might be considered old wives tales, how a bee sting will increase your virility, or cure rheumatism, or how eating small bees is a cure-all to anything. However medical science is interested in the venoms of certain insects, and pay Cal- vin Davis to collect, and make a fine dust of those insects for them. Mr. Davis a resident of Oshawa became interested in etymology in his youth and a few years ago quit his job in Toronto to operate his own unique business. He collects 49 different species of insects, of these bees make only a small percentage. This summer he plans to go to Northern Ontario to collect black flies. He bas two small vacuum units which he designed him- self, they drew the insects into glass containers. Every spe- cies of insect are ground and left to dry in the open air before they are put into powder form and shipped. Another part of Mr. Davis' business is getting rid of unwanted bees nests around people's homes. He bas taken a course as an exterminator, however he uses no chemicals in performing this task. He captures the unwanted bees by physical methods and receives a number of stings doing it. This service will cost people $15. Mr. Davis bas done consid- erable study on bee stings and their affect upon the nervous system. He bas iven lectures to schools an community groups in the area, and bas a number of interesting displays to show. Of particular interest are honey bees, hornet and wasp stingers which he bas magntied by a few hundred times. Hampton Flood (From Page One) to object. Don Allin agreed to move the report be adopted with the permission of Coun- cillor Lyall. Councillor Don Wearn went on record, as explaining r a drainage program that will have to be implemented in the former Town of Hampton. He explained that there was not adequate drainage in the town which made road work impos- sible and flooded septic tanks and asked whether a plaI which would cost $895,000 to put storm sewers in could be considered in the financial forecast. Councillor Don Allin asked whether this could be done and charged to subdividers. To which Councillor Wearn te- plied that most of this area needing the drainage system was already developed. Ib was decided that this might be done through land banking so that the people who own the properties would pay for the facilities and 1976 might be the time to implement such a program.

"This old line will be replaced by a new line with a greater volt capacity but as the present Hydro right of way is only 66-feet wide -- not wide enough for future require- ments -- the new larger line will be situated elsewhere." Mr. Lyall said. When Mr. Lyall queried the Hydro people as to the method that will be used to dispose of the surplus land that the old 115,000 volt line occupied, Mr. Lyall was informed that there .were different ways this would be done. Where the 66-foot right of way ran through farm land with the same farmer owning the land on both sides of the right of way -- the disposal agreement would be made with the farmer. When the 66-foot right of way ran through built up areas like the former Village of Newcastle, then the neigh- bor to the right of way on the north side and the nieghbor to the right of way to the south side of the Hydro land would have the opportunity of obtain- ing an agreement for the land to the centre of the right of way. "I was informed" Mr. Lyall said "That Ontario Hydro would be retaining some of the right of way west of Bowman- ville while other land in this district would be turned over to the Bowmanville Public Utilities Corporation. "So", Mr. Lyall concluded "People who have had the 60-foot Hydro right of way near Highway 2 as a neighbor are advised to check with Ontario Hydro or have their lawyers take this action to see where they stand with regards to this surplus Hydro land.
