Tidbits from Around the Region WHITBY -- The remarkable development boom is continuing in Whitby. Last week Whitby council okayed a new residential development and the planning committee approved a commercial plan. A 227-unit townhouse complex was approved for the corner of Brock Street North and Manning Road. The developer, Perez Corporation, reached an agreement agreement with the town just before the entire matter was to be the subject of an Ontario Municipal Board hearing. Whitby council felt it had little chance of affecting the pricing policy of the townhouses, which was its major concern. The second development has been approved unanimously by the Whitby planning committee and will be located at Wentworth Street and Thickson Road South. Exceeding500,000 square feet, the complex will hold office and restaurant facilities facilities along with industrial space.
