Sixteen tldelegations faced Town council Council on Monday spent three and a half hours with sixteen delegations addressing council on numerous items of concernis rang- ing from the Hampton Bridge to a rezoning application submitted by Careview Manor Special Care Rest H4ome in Bowmanville. Three delegations spoke on the Hampton Bridge where council' is to build a one-lane bridge with foot path at a cost of $375,000,. The speakers voiced both suipport and objection to the proposai. As to the Careview Manor rezon- ing application to allow the housing of upwards of-fifty boarders count- cil has asked for reports from the police, Être department, building department, ambulance following objections from area residents and especially objections by Irv Hamilton who again spoke to count- cil on Monday night. In this matter Vera Forresf, operator of the home which now has close to 50 residents objected to comments made by Hamilton at a previous meeting of the General Purpose commîfttee. Newcastle Village proposai Patricial Norton of Newcastle Village thanked council for their ac- tion of denying a proposed 3 unit condominium across from Busters, in the Village. The denial was action taken at the General Purpose comn- mnittee the previous Monday. Edmond Vanhaverbeke, the pro- ponent for the complex spoke ask- ing council to reconsider their denial and give approval. He said the complex was not directly across frorn Busters and that it wouild be an assef for the Villagle and housing with more than adequate parking being provided. Counc. Hamre pointed out f0 the 1"umerous objections to the plan il d that in her opinion the ýMu1nicipal Board, due to the objec- tions, would only turn the applica- tion down. Asks-for financial support Bill Clarke representing the St. John's Ambulance group asked that counicil meet their request for $2,000 as if had been cut back to $500 by council. Couinc. Hamre noted the large in-, crease in financial assistance re- (Continued page 9) to the Editor WHAT TO FREEZE? - A HOT TOPIC Apparent ly, development ap- plications have been accepted by the Town for even more development in t he headwaters area of the Ganaraska. This despite repeated stafements that they would be disallowed. And then we have the current st ate of affairs in the Hamnlet of Orono, wherein pot ential though scarce and modified developmient is being put on hold. Lasf Sunday, on Earth Day, we made a point of journeying into the Ganaraska, to the area widely known as 'the delI' to enjoy the magnifîcient weather and to plainta tree, truly an "Eartti Day" event, and an undertaking shared by many. Neyer having actually viewed what is meant by 'headwaters', we sought ouf the forested area îwhich gives rise f0 the fresh, clear wýater which bubies ouf, of the g-rounid and becomnes our local creeks and tribtaries. W'e were filled wît h the wonder and the beaufy of fhe rebirth of water. Now this mighit ,ound ridiculous and sentimental to ahl of us who t ake natutre for granfed. But the environmient miovemrent present- ly gaining for-ce shows clearly the price we have paid for fhis innocent and childishi attitude. Water coing ouf of the grouind on its way south fo the lakes is under constant aftack. Wheni it passes fhrough Orono one can pic- f ure if screamning for its life! We need to do everyfhing i our power to assîst this Rebirth process and f0 nuirtuire natuire nifs fight for survival. To t his end - the headwaters of the forest miust remain inviolable; and the sanifary wasf e sysfemr in Orono miusf be brought into th is century.
