\ 6 I I I The Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville. August 10. 1088 3 p • z"à ¥F7*I - T Corn Growers Converge on Newcastle Farm for Demonstration Lonjusion Over Wilmot Lease ^t i eing a "letter expressing their concerns after after receiving Professer Lovekin's notice notice in April. : Mr. Rice replied with a letter stating stating that there was nothing to worry ajbout as long as they had a valid lease. >;"But it's not now that we're worried about,' said one resident. "In 1998 I'll blé 82 years old and I won't be wanting t{> relocate. In fact, not only did I believe believe that the land was owned by Rice and that my lease was renewable at the original price as outlined in the brochure, but I was under the impression impression that I was signing a 20-year lease.' v The resident added that the Rice Group had told him that no lawyer ^as necessary before signing the lease since there was no land purchased, v According to a spokesperson from the Lovekin Land Committee, many of the 54 home owners were also advised advised that no lawyer was necessary. P However, some residents did hire lawyers before signing, v, "The thing was so complicated that even the lawyer didn't notice that the land didn't belong to Rices and that jve'd be forced off in 12 years,' said one. Ç In each lease it is stated, however imclearly, that the land will be restored restored to James Lovekin in its original original state in 1998. The representative from the Lovekin Lovekin Land Committee explained, "We (Ton't want any money out of this. All we want is to live out the rest of our lives in peace. We love this community.' community.' He added that the committee hopes to gain the support of other Wilmot Creek residents as the termination of From Page One the 54 homeowners' leases will affect everyone since the Lovekin stretch of land divides the community in two. The entrance to the community is on one side of the land with the community community centre on the other. If all of the leases expire, there will be no means of getting from the entrance to the community centre or the homes on the east side of the retirement development development without trespassing. Basically, what the committee wants is a written statement saying that their leases are renewable. That, however, is not completely up to the Rice Group. Realizing this, the Lovekin Land Committee contacted James Lovekin. According to the committee, it is not Professor Lovekin's intention to be the bad guy in the situation, but to get his estate in order. Mr. Fitchett outlined the three possibilities possibilities that he sees for the situation: "Professer Lovekin may extend Ontario Ontario Hydro's lease who would in turn extend the Rice lease. He may decide to sell the property to either Ontario Hydro or Rice. Or (the worst) all leases leases may expire on December 31,1998.' Mr. Fitchett reported that there are now negotiations occurring between the three parties, but that he couldn't predict the outcome. "Hydro's position will depend on Professor Lovekin,' he said. Meanwhile the 54 homeowners cannot rest easy as their home value continues to plummet with the approach approach of 1998. "We've got everything here that we could ever want except peace and quiet,' said a resident. "We don't need this. We moved here for a hassle-free life.'
