At this time a revised plan was shown to Council and it was proposed to complete Hazelwood Drive with the necessary storm sewers to service that street and the paved surface. Then the approval for 16 lots along Garrard and Manning could be trans- ferred to Hazelwood Drive where it is proposed to develop % acre lots for V.L.A. sales. A considerable amount of fill will be necessary to make some of these lots qualify for rezoning from Greenbelt to Residential and it was proposed to apply for approval of the overall street layout so that fill could be moved from some of the high points to the low area. The Council assured Messrs. Wilson and Ridgely that consideration would be given to these proposals but that in view of the fact that these revi- sions had not been considered by the Planning Board it would be necessary to obtain a recommendation fromthe Board before a decision could be reached. 1.

Gra- ham, Live Stock Commissioner, ad- vised the Council of (1) Legislation pending to give authority to repeal the Warble Fly Control By-law.

Beckly, the 1962 In- spector, to see if Mr. Beckly would act in a similar capacity this year, possibly supply the necessary tractor and find a spray operator as well. Then "the Inspector could, in" making his rounds this spring, obtain the feel- ing of the cattle owners in the Town- ship regarding repealing of the War. ble Fly Control By-law for 1964. 2.

Also regretted the loss of Mr. John Dry- den, a member of the Board during 1961 and 1962. On motion the Secretary was in- structed to write a letter, to former member Mr. W.

On motion a similar letter of ap. preciation be sent to former member Mr. John Dryden. Carried. Mr. John Goodwin reported re: de- velopments on the Brooklin Post Of- fice as follows: A meeting with Hon. Michael Starr took place on Saturday, January 12th last with Mr. Goodwin present ag Reeve, Mr. Robinson as Clerk and Messrs. Lofthouse and Manning rep- resenting the Planning Board. This Committee proposed that the Depart- ment of Public Works purchase all of the Vipond and Gibson parcels and the Township would convey a portion of the park lands to enlarge the use able area for the Post Office. In exchange for the park lands the De- partment would in turn deed to the Township the portion of the Vipond lot, encroaching on Vipond Road and nlso the westerly 60° of the Vipond lot in order that the Township could provide off-street parking for the Post Office, Fire Hall and Park. These proposals were received very attentively by Hon. Michael Starr and the ideas accepted as good planning. Mr. Starr promised to do all in his power to advance the project with the Department of Public Works in Ot. tawa. Moved that this Planning Board re- commend to Council that a letter from this Township be sent to Mr. Starr thanking him for his reception of the Committee and his representations to the Department of Public Works on our behalf. Carried. It was noted that a letter unde: date of January 24th had been sent to the Property and Building Man- agement Branch of the Department of Public Works in Toronto outlining the proposal which had been placed be- fore Mr. Starr and it was agreed that Township of Whitby Planning Board Meeting filed, with members to keep these dates open with a view to attending the conference. 2. The Oshawa Regional Planning Association requested the names of those appointed to the Regional As- sociation from this Board for 1963. Both the Planning Board Chairman Geo. E. Lofthouse and the Reeve John Goodwin agreed to this appointment. 3. The Secretary advised the Board that the reports relative to the Corri- dor, Highway #2 and the Humber- forth proposal should be completed next week. It was agreed that these reports be studied by the Board and then the Chairman call a special meet- ing to allow the members to discuss the reports with Mr. Little. Chairman Lofthouse suggested a discussion on the Consultant's report of the proposed re-zoning along the Highway 401 Service Roads. It was found that the two copies of the re- port were not immediately available and it was agreed that the Chairman and the Secretary prepare a conden- sation of this report for consideration at a later meeting. Mr. John Goodwin suggested that the water problem presently being en. countered by Humberforth in their rezoning efforts could be solved in 3 different ways -- (1) Supply from Whitby. (2) Supply from Oshawa. (3) Supply from deep well. By con- sidering more than one source of sup- ply the bargaining position of the Township should be improved. Mr. Goodwin suggested that the Board consider asking Humberforth to investigate the possibility of drain- ing the low area to the west of the site presently being considered for rezoning. This could be done by means of a storm sewer to Thickson Road where an outfall could be made and at the same location a street could be constructed to connect the shopping centre with Thickson Road. This would allow the shopping centre Mo be moved 300' to 400' west and this move would possibly remove some of the objections which have been raised by the residents along Kendalwood Road. This would also remove some of the traffic from Highway #2 be. tween the shopping centre and Thick- son Road. Chairman Lofthouse suggested in turn that these ideas be considered by the Board members and when the re- ports submitted by Mr. Little are be- ing discussed with him- these proposals could be discussed at the same time. The Board agreed that this course of action be followed. The 1963 Budget was mentioned and it was suggested that this could be left until the next time the Board met as the budget for the Township will be prepared early in March. The possibility of making a start on an Officinl Plan was discussed and it was agreed that the south end--the corridor area in particular -- should be considered first. Further to the possibility of start. ing on an Official Plan it was agreed that a Supper Meeting of the Board he arranged for February 14th and a copy of this letter should be also sent to Mr. Starr.
