The other components of the proposal call for an educational interpretive centre, a studio for filming motion pictures and a large facility for the manufacture of,the world famous fur garments by Paula Lishman Ltd. Mayor Diamond said it would be "very unfort- unate" if the entire project gets turned down because of the ultra light issue. Calling Bill and Paula Lishman "very interesting and innovative people," the Oshawa mayor stated firmly "I have no interest in killing what is otherwise an excellent proposal." Scugog"s regional councillor Marilyn Pearce told the Citizen on Monday she hopes the vote this week at Regional council will carry by a strong majority. The issue of ultra light aircraft testing and flights from the property is the basis for staunch opposition "from : some residents who live in the Nestleton area' | 1"We are appealing to you," she told Scugog councillors, "for some protection for the quality of our lives."

At one point he told the meeting "this (ultra light) disturbance factor has been blown away out of all proportion."

Council feels ultra lights flights (hours and frequency of operation, altitudes, flight paths, proximity to houses, etc.) from the property can only be controlled by federal government aviation regulations, not local zoning by-laws or the Regional official plan changes.
