2 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc, Wednesday, February 9,1994 Week in Review- International Field Battles for Milton's World Backyard Hockey Title Residents Air Concerns About Proposal for Two Sports Fields roes pasta ; by Laura J. Richards Residents near Cedar Park Road and the 6th Concession Road don't want any more noise, traffic or garbage garbage in their lives. Speaking at a public meeting on Monday morning, Feb. 7, at the Clarington Council Chambers, five area residents said they don't want to see a proposed for a 1,500 square metre clubhouse and two sports fields end up in their backyards or across the road. Ann Parker told the members of the General Purpose and Administration Administration Committee that the property she and her husband own shares part of the boundary of the property being being looked at for possible rezoning. "When we moved here 22, years ago, we were looking for peace and tranquility," Parker told committee members. "In those, days the town was strict -- only one house on each 10- acre lot." Times changed, and area residents residents were "prepared to accept a few more neighbors," she noted. However, looking back at the installation installation of a trailer park on Cedar Park Road, Parker told the members she was not happy about it. The committee learned that the Parkers do not want to be "wedged in between two commercial sites" bringing in "hundreds of people" into the area. The extra traffic, is what area resi dent Randy Ovenden doesn't want to sec. He fears for the safety of his daughters who ride their bikes along die 6th Concession. "When I was a kid, I could ride my bike up and down the street all the time," Ovenden staled. However, with the cottage country country traffic using Concession Road 6 as a short cut from the 115/35 highway, highway, and traffic from the present trailer park, Ovenden keeps his daughters far away from the road on the weekends. Not only that, he says the road just can't handle the amount of traf- ' fic now on the road in the summer time. Tim Coffey said: "The noise is a big factor. There's already enough on long weekends from the trailer park." In the public meeting, Murray Burgess of Cedar Park Road told the planning committee "our north property line is the south boundary of Cedar Park Road trailer park." "That clubhouse, at 1,500 square metres, will be the size of a small Eaton's store," said Burgess. "The Durham Regional Official Plan says the land is agricultural land and can't be used," Burgess noted from the planning department report. Speaking in support of the application application was Chris Lapa of Oshawa. He told the committee members and the residents who stayed to listen listen to him that the potential owner looking at the property has a conditional conditional offer on it. "The fields would be for day use only. There would be no lights on the fields," said Lapa. Fencing would go up to protect the privacy of the area residents and much of the shrubs and old growth trees would be kept. "The owner would make every effort to keep this private," Lapa explained. explained. The clubhouse would include a kitchen, public washrooms, a coat room, and banquet facilities on the second floor. The GP&A committee members decided to send the proposal back to the Planning Department for further processing. Perfect sub-zero weather greeted the combatants of the Milton's U-Brew World Backyard Hockey 'Championships held Saturday at the Strike's Beech Avenue Ice Palace.

We need the local connection," said MacDonald. Judy Hurvid said the regional advisory advisory board would actually be enhanced enhanced by the Clarington committee. committee. Another member of council was concerned how the committee would impact the small grassroots environmental groups wanting to speak on issues. Councillor Mary Novak repeatedly repeatedly voiced her reasons for not wanting a group because "I feel those (local) groups would be cut off." She said she felt the committee would become like a "middle management management level." Councillor John O'Toole said, "I don't think this is the right time. We should allow the regional committee to look at their role." Councillor Ann Dreslinski asked, during debate, how the advisory board would function. She specifically wanted to know if the members would be going to the Planning Department to look through applications before the councillors saw reports on the items. It had been noted that a number of communities actually have environmental environmental advisory boards, including including Hope Township and Barrie. Councillor David Scott tried to find a compromise between some of the councillors those who support the committee idea. "A role for a local advisory committee, committee, by definition, would be a committee to look at local issues," Councillor Scott said. Then he asked if a compromise might be to create a committee which was not "a creature of council." council." This means the committee would be independent of council and not be part of local government. Mayor Diane Hamre, who had said she was not in favor an adviso ry committee, said this was a better idea. In a report from town staff, the suggested work of the committee includes includes providing comments on environmental environmental issues either referred to it by Council or by the Planning Department Department or to provide unsolicited comments and to undertake environmental environmental projects such as the environment environment fair and waste reduction.

"We'll be looking with great interest interest what happens next regarding the land. If sold and the money goes to the foundation, it could mean a great benefit to it," Cureatz stated.
