WHITBY FREE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23.197, PAGE 3 Apartments, townhouses planned for port Development plans have been made for the Whitby harbor area which will include townhouses and apartments. The property, six acres on the southeast corner of Watson St. and Victoria St. W., makes up about half of the Town's designated har- bor development area in the Port Whitby secondary plan. Building will take place in phases, according to the developer, Phelps Consultants. In March this year, the Town of Whitby, which had owned the property, sold the land to Dominion Trustco Equities Ltd. and Normart Management. The first phase is to include 59 apartment units and 16 stacked townhouse units as well as some commercial space. In total, there Drumm requests change in use of municipal building Councillor Joe Drumm will at- tempt to change the Town's policy on provincial parties using the municipal building. During the recent provincial election, Drumm and councillor Gerry Emm were upset when Premier David Peterson was in- vited to use the municipal building. "I was a little embarrassed, said Drumm, who along with Emm, suggested the Town's policy should be reviewed. Thè policy states any leader of a provincial or federal party can use the building at any time. But at last week's council meeting, Drumm requested the policy specifically stipulate the building cannot be used during an election. Drumm's official notice of motion was seconded by Emm. Council will now debate the request on Oct. 13. are plans for' 52 three-story, stacked townhouse units and three eight-story apartment buildings. No comments were made at a public meéting Monday night to hear the application for rezoning of the property, although councillor Joe Bugelli remarked: "It's nice to see some potential development down by the harbc.r."
