Millar, cliairman of the hearing, in lier decision stated that it wasrnot necessary to address the issues of ail parties, for and against, because of a section in the old Regional Official plan and more stringent regulations contained in the new Regional Official Plan. She did say that many of tlie issues- raised by the various parties were important but liowever in liglit of the facitlihat tlie application was dealt a death blow by the lack of uLs conformity with the Officiai Plan the Board found il not necessary to review other views any further. The cliairman said that therefore the Board allows the appeal and directs council of the Town of Newcastle to repeal by-law 89-103 and dite Board so orders. It would appear that tlie new officiai plan of Durhiam includes the area ini the- Oak Ridges Moraine. In fact the Officiai Plan shows a greater area in the Moraine than does the provincial plan. I addition the new Officiai Plan would require an Officiai Plan axnendmnent whicli is not allowed for a gas station.
