4 The Canarlian Statesman- Bowmianville. October 29. 1975 Section Two Aniother Housin gProposai- On 160 Acresin Newcastle Presented to Town A unique proposai fer tne development of 160 acres of land in the Village of New- castle was presented te Town Council on October 20. In psresenting -thc sehemne, Mr. '.Service of Angelotto Contracting Company, stated that the projeet would provide housing fer approximately 2,400 people in 160 acres of land located north and south of Highway 2 in Newcastle. The develepment would in- corporate, a concept called "zero lot lines"' which Mr. Service described as unusual and innova tive. In, simpl1e terms the idea means ta structures built on the land are not detacbed and that the wall between neighbors in the units would serve as the property line. These buildings would be integrated into an overaîl plan that would in- clude ,townbouses and single family units. By reducing tbe usual setback footages on the front, sides and rear of the buildings, there would be a greater number of smaller lots available for relatîvely inexpensive single family dwellings in the development.

BOX 100 BOWMANVILLE, ONT.,N OFFICE 623-1406 îI RES. 623-5023 detached units back to back" Mr. Service noted that tbe buildings would previde suit- able, housing for senior citizens, and that the single storey quadraplex layout would look like a. low-lying ranch bungalow on comple- tien. Eacb, unit would cover 700-750 square feet and pro- vide an alternative te the large, expensive single family bouses now on the market. Mr. Service approacbed Council te request that the zening application for tbe development be processed "to get us on our way." The company bas filed an applica- tion for bhe parcels of land, but bas been unable te proceed until Ceuncil makes an amendment te the current holding policy affecting de- velopment in Newcastle. Coun. Kirk Entwisle pro- posed a motion that tbe planning staff be instructed to present Council with an Counicil amendment to the, Official Plan for Newcastle and the zoning by law after the Plann- ing Advisory Council had, screened the application and held public debate on the matter. The motion carried. Mr. Service bas a meeting with the planners early next week te present his plan in detail. All of the 4 unit buildings in the plan would be set back off the roadway 25 feet and the lots would be 100 feet in depth. A margin of 24 feet between the structures would allow access for driveways. Mr. Service stated that the land could be sold as condo- miniums or leased to tenants if the buildings were purchas- ed by other interests. He added that the develop- ment would bring no change te the commercial centre of the old village of Newcastle. Land bas been set aside in the project for park space and schools. At Council Committee of the Whole meeting, on Oct. 14, Clerk Joe Mcllroy advised counc illors that he bas inform- ed Bowmanville Taxi opera- tors by letter of the bylaws pertaining to their operation. Mr. Mcllroy's action follows a deputation cf the Bowman- ville Chamber of Commerce at the previous committee meeting when complaints about the taxi operation were launched. The complaints concerned the taxis using parking spaces on King Street in thebusiness section, prohibiting customers from using them, and the condition of the taxi units. Mr. Mcllroy explainied that the bylaws do govern the cleanliness of the vehlicles and that he advised them the bylaw officer will be checking on this from time to time. The clerk also reminded that when the licence which can be revoked by council at any time, was granted, an area on Division Street, near, the Castle Hotel, was rented by the operator of the service at that time for the vehlicles. Unfortunatel y,, althou gh granting of the Ilicence requir- ed the vehlicles to be parked in an off street area, the present owner discontinued the rent- inil of the parking space. Under ttaffic bylaw, however, the town may desîg- nate any particular area as a taxi stand and thereby have the vehlicles located at the selected location. Coun.

Ivan Hobbs however did flot feel an invitation is necessary as they have the right to attend anytime they wish. Backing up Coun. Cowman's recommendation, Coun. Lyall advised that as the large delegation from the C of C had launched the complaints it would be to counil's advant- age to invite the taxi operators to a ceuncil meeting, and the idea was approved. Coun. Bruce Tink advised that through discussion with King Street businessmen hie has learned that the parking problem is apparently cured. Wait Woîrd A letter received from Ontario ilydro -requesting a meeting has broughTt a New- castle Council decision to advise hydro they intend to take no such action until word is received from the Province regarding a grant for the municipality to conduct a study of the matter. Coun. Ken Lyall first mnoved that such a meeting be held off until at least t he end of November but then changed the motion being in agreement with his fellow councillors that they should await word on the grant first.

The association veted te ask MPP Deug Moffatt to fellow- up on a petition presented by the association in January te former MPP Alex Curruthers. The petitien requests that the name for the new area formed'under develepment ef Durham Regien be changed from the "Town ef New- castle" te the "Area Munici- pality cf Newcastle."' Some 200 names have re- cently been added te the petition which was originally presented with 1,800- signi- tures. Association President John Liptay sees the main preblem being the confusion between the village of Newcastle and the town of Bowmanville. Mr. Liptay'aise stated that residents in Bowmanville have resentment in the loss ef their community's name and most of the names on the petitien came from Bewman- ville citizens. on creation ef the Regien, the name "Town ef New- castle"' was selected by the lution f0 usion provincial gevernment with- eut appreval of the four fermer municipalities which lie within the new boundaries. The pErovi nce apparentl--ý choseth e name on. the basis- that the area between Lake Simcoe and Cobourg was, during the l9th century, knnwn as Newcastle.
