2 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc, Wednesday, October2,1991 OSIIAWA--Durham College is still prepared to set up a business course for the Lipetsk Polytechnical Institute in the Soviet Union in September 1992. Although the college officials are no longer quite sure who to deal with in the Russian government, the program is to suffer delay rather than cancellation. Business teacher Rudy Chemecki is confident the program will get going. However, details have not been finalized. The business course has been set up to teach the Russians the basics of business as they convert to a market economy. Russian instructors will be sent to Durham College to learn English as a second language. Canadian instructors will be heading to the institute to teach the business course through a translator. Durham College will be paid a fee for its service. OSIIAWA--The 10th Annual Camp Samac Art Festival has selected Theresia Barclay as their Painter of The Year.

Shcr Lectooze told CAUSE Committee members that the Toastmasters Club had looked at these areas and had discussed discussed amongst themselves the problems and solutions within the four areas. "All participants are in favour favour of using the by-gone era flavor as a basis for any and all future changcs/additions to our town--not just in the core area," said Mrs. Lectooze. Tourism would certainly be enhanced by such a change, Mrs. Lectooze added.

Mr. Schwarz said. However, the core also needs a park area for seniors, he said. A passive park built for the use of seniors--"a safe controlled controlled area that is well lit and well groomed," said Mr. Schwarz, The Bowmanville Business Centre provided a brief to the CAUSE committee in an afternoon afternoon meeting which included presentations from'many government government representatives.

This can be done through a variety of ways, including: • encouraging recovery and the restoration of 19th century buildings • continue the designation of historical buildings through L.A.C.A.C. (Local Architectural Architectural Conservation Advisory Committee) especially those within the residential, commercial commercial and industrial areas; • the implementation of a municipal policy of protecting designated buildings; and, • implementing design guidelines for new building in distinct areas in the core regarding regarding such things as materials, materials, setback, form, height, floor-to-floor height, and lot coverage. Mr. Rutledge also suggested suggested anchoring one street with a mixture of residential and commercial commercial endeavors. This anchoring would also provide for a stronger civic presence that is already apparent apparent in the core, said the study. Temperance Street is already already like this, he said. The only other concept to include is a green area to provide a transition transition space before entering the Bowmanvillc Creek Valley. "This space gives access for pedestrian traffic into the valley," valley," he said. "It is a gateway- -a transition between two important important sites," Mr. Rutledge continued. Traffic from pedestrians, bicycles bicycles and motorized vehicles was taken into consideration with this study. Many of the suggestions had to do with the streamlining of vehicle traffic and providing off-street parking behind the main street shopping areas. This would mean better signs for people to locale the parking in the core. It was also recognized that traffic helped to provided the "vitality" found in the downtown downtown core. Pedestrians were considered in the green spaces as well as on the sidewalks. The team suggested that benches be provided, public washrooms, telephone booths, and newspaper stands for these people. It is suggested within the study that pedestrian links be set up between the different resources resources in the town. "The ability to easily walk between various sights of interest interest would be of benefit to citizens citizens and visitors alike." The report also states, "there docs not appear to be any consideration of providing for the needs of cyclists." Given the concent of the town's citizens regarding the available green space for recreational recreational uses, the team sought to look at the two creek valleys as the major areas for recreation. The study looks at the creation creation of mill ponds and unpaved hiking trails along the Bowmanvillc Bowmanvillc Creek. It also proposes a paved bicycle/jogging bicycle/jogging path along the Soper Creek Valley. These trails would "connect ultimately with regional trails to the north and south of Bowmanville," Bowmanville," thereby allowing the town to "always have an intimate intimate and direct connection to its environment." Another pathway, the study suggests for pedestrians, would be created if a mill sluice could be installed at a mill pond location. location. This type of traffic would "reinforce the civic and tourist importance of both the mill and its ponds, and revenue possibilities generate for the mill.".
