New Owners Have Big Plans for Dutchman by Gretchen Ballantyne The Flying Dutchman Hotel will be taking on a new look, as well as new owners. Renovations are slated to begin early next year. Vette Development Inc. and a Toronto-based construction company assumed combined ownership ownership of the Flying Dutchman, September 15, and they have major internal and external changes planned for the future. "In January or Febuary of '88 we are going to begin one million million dollars worth of renovations renovations on the hotel," said Craig Booth, general general manager at the Flying Flying Dutchman. Most of the changes will affect the entertainment entertainment facilities at the hotel. The existing bar-dining bar-dining room will become one large bar. The fast- food buffet restaurant is going to be a full dining room and the fast food service will be a part of the gas service, in front of the hotel, in a gas bar concept. One of the more elaborate elaborate plans is for the existing indoor pool. "We are going to fill in the indoor pool and make it into a dance floor," said Mr. Booth. The renovations are to be completed by early to late spring in 1988, and 250 to 300 jobs will be created. But the changes won't stop there. Mr. Booth says he anticipates anticipates further expansion in the next five years. New Dog Rules From Page One This section of the by-law is designed designed to curb the "dog running at large " problem in the municipality, according to the clerk's report. Mr. Oakes says that stray dogs often kill more sheep than wolves, and with the increased rural population there are more dogs in the municipaltiy. Estimating the number of dogs is difficult, but it is usually believed to be about ten percent of the human population, according to Mr. Oakes, f VWith all the recent controversy rçbout the ownership of certain dogs, Mr. Oakes concluded that a municipality municipality doesn't have the authority to restrict the ownership of specific breed or dog types. If, in time, the provincial government government enacts legislation to restrict the ownership of certain breeds of dogs, then municipalities may amend their by-laws accordingly. One area where the provincial government government has legislated by-laws is the "Stoop and Scoop" control. There is no such by-law in the Town of Newcastle dealing with the removal removal of dog waste by owners. The law is difficult to enforce and should be left in the control of dog owners and not municipal staff, according according to Mr. Oakes. Town staff are also looking at the extension of the Animal Control hours for the Town of Newcastle. While still under review, Mr. Oakes says that it may be necessary to extend extend hours for a certain time of the year. Furthermore, with the improved licensing procedures, someone finding finding a dog will be able to obtain the proper information to return the dog to its owner. Animal Control officers are empowered empowered by the by-law to issue a ticket for any offenders of by-laws pertaining pertaining to dogs at large or unlicensed animals. animals. If a dog is seized and taken to the pound, the Animal Control officials officials may collect payment of impound fees of $20 plus boarding fees. "The ultimate objective of the bylaw bylaw is to instill responsibility in the owners of dogs and to penalize those who act irresponsibly," said Mr. Oakes in his report.
