submissions and comments made at the Hearing.
On the basis of the evidence before it, the Committee concludes the proposal conforms
to the Official Plan and the Zoning Bylaw.
The Committee is satisfied the subject land is compatible with the established
pattern of development in the area and the conveyance will not be detrimental to the
public interest. The Committee is further satisifed the shape and dimensions of the
resulting lots are adequate and the lots are suitable for the intended purposes.
In the opinion of the Committee, a plan of subdivision approved under Section 33 of
The Planning Act is not required in this instance.

to Application Number A.79.13, upon fulfillment of the following conditions:-
]. Payment of all taxes, to date, to the Town of Aurora;
2. Payment of an Administration Fee of $100.00, to the Town of Aurora;

of Reference of the subject land which conforms substantially with the
application as submitted;
5. Fulfillment of Conditions 1, 2, 3 and 4 not later than August 15, 1980.
Subsection 2 of Section 29 of The Planning Act applies to any subsequent conveyance

reconstruction projects in Town.

The Committee recommended that an additional two members be added to LACAC in order

5. Research and Designation Report and File System Report
The Committee recommended that the Town's purchasing agent obtain prices for a

Administrative Centre.
It was recommended that in view of the fact that the student LACAC hired to work on
its research files under the Experience '79 Program had completed only one week of
her prescribed work, LACAC use funds already set aside in its budget to hire an
appropriately qualified individual to complete work on its research files and make
them available to Council, Town staff and the general public. It was estimated
that this work would take approximately one month and that approximately $800.00 be
set aside for this work.
6. Publication Report
J. Mcintyre reported on progress made regarding a walking tour brochure. It was
recommended that a brochure be printed following the format used for a successful
walking tour brochure used in St. Andrews, New Brunswick. The brochure will

(k) Letter 20-104-Wimpey Homes Limited-Regional Water Supply
The Committee recommends that this letter be referred to Mayor Timpson to pursue

(1) Letter 20-140-Technical Committee Report
Proposed Plan of Subdivision -Aurora Highlands Golf Club
The Planning Committee at its meeting of April 4, 1979, gave draft approval in
principle to the above noted proposed plan of subdivision. Staff were instructed to
work with the subdivider and his consultant to resolve the technical problems and to
recommend conditions of draft approval directly to Council.
Several meetings have been held with the subdivider and many of the technical
problems have been discussed. The following conditions of draft approval are
therefore proposed. It is suggested that changes respecting the road layouts be
shown on the revised draft plan.
Since sewage treatment capacity is not available for the entire proposal, it is
suggested that sewage treatment allocation be made to certain of the lots. This has
been discussed with the applicant and the following allocation for 149 units is
recommended; lots 1-102 inclusive and 316-362 inclusive, subject to the normal
financial requirements being met. This arrangement would facilitate construction of
Murray Drive.
Because sewage allocation cannot be made to the entire subdivision some limitations
must be placed on the owners so that building does not occur until after allocation
has been made. The methods of accomplishing this have been discussed with Regional
staff and with the owners. Condition 3 below would allow registration of the entire
plan and would place a restriction on the issuance of building permits until after
sewage treatment allocation has been made. This method is operating in several
municipalities in the Region and it is felt that this would be the preferred method
of handling the problem of insufficient sewage treatment capacity in this case.
However, the final decision as to how this would be handled rests with Regional
Council. It is therefore suggested that an alternative condition, which would
restrict registration of the parts of the subdivision for which sewage treatment
capacity is unavailable until allocation has been made, also be communicated to the
Region as a second choice. The drawback of this second alternative is that part of
the plan could remain unregistered for a considerable time period until servicing
capacity becomes available. This is set out below as Condition 3 and 3a and headed
"Alternative".
1. The Council's conditions and amendments applying to the approval of the final
plan for registration of the subdivision are as follows:
2. That this approval applies to the revised plan by Derek Willis and Associates
which shows 362 detached residential lots and 6 blocks.
3. That the owner agree with the Town of Aurora that building permits will not be
issued on lots 103-315 inclusive, a total of 213 lots, (Phase II) until sewage
treatment allocation has been made to those areas and verified by the Regional
Commissioner of Engineering.
"Alternative"
3. That final approval for registration shall apply to Phase I a maximum of 149
lots namely lots 1 to 102 inclusive, and 316 to 362 inclusive, and the streets
adjacent thereto as shown on the revised draft plan.

3a. That the lands to be withheld from final approval at this time, namely the
balance of the plan of subdivision shown as Phase II on the draft plan, shall
only be released in accordance with the lotting pattern for Phase II as shown on
the draft approved plan, at such time as sewage treatment capacity and water
capacity are available and have been allocated to these lots by the Town of
Aurora to the satisfaction of the Regional Engineering Commissioner.
4. That the road allowances shall be dedicated as public highway.
5. That the streets shall be named to the satisfaction of the Town of Aurora and
the Regional Planning Department.
6. That the owner conveys land in the amount of 5% of the land included in the plan
to the Town of Aurora for a park pursuant to the provisions of Section 33 {5}
(a) of The Planning Act. Alternatively, the Municipality may accept cash in
lieu of the said conveyance and under the provisions of Section 33 {8} of The
Planning Act, the Municipality is hereby authorized to do so.
7. That the owner shall enter into a Subdivision Agreement with the Municipality
agreeing to satisfy all of the requirements financial and otherwise of the
Municipality, concerning the provision of roads, installation of services and
drainage.
8. That such easements as may be required for the installation of services or snow
dumping shall be granted to the appropriate authority.
9. That the owner shall carry out before final approval for registration:
(a) An environmental analysis of the lands in Phase II to the satisfaction of
the Municipality, and the South Lake Simcoe Conservation Authority and the
Ministry of Natural Resources.
and
{b) Should this analysis indicate that certain lands are unsuitable for
building that the draft plan will be appropriately amended provided that
no more than a total of 362 lots will be created.
10. That prior to final approval for registration the owner shall investigate
methods of allowing pedestrian or bicycle access through the appropriate parts
of the open space blocks to complete the walkway system provided for in the
Interim Official Plan.
11. That the owner shall agree in the Subdivision Agreement not to apply for
building permits on any part of the plan until the water looping has been
installed on McDonald Drive and Seaton Drive.
12. That a one-foot reserve adjacent to Brookland Court, as indicated in blue on the
draft plan, shall be conveyed to the Municipality.
Council in Committee discussed the foregoing comments, and would recommend that Item
Numbers 3 (second}, 3A and 10 be deleted from these conditions. The Committee would
further recommend that when the Subdivision Agreement is being processed, staff be
directed to investigate the feasibility of having the Developer include walkways and
bicycle access through the appropriate blocks.
4. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Councillor Ostick requested that the Deputy Clerk prepare and present at the first
meeting of each month, a list of unfinished business for Council's consideration.
5. CHURCH STREET SCHOOL

Report #130 -Administration Committee ••• Various Matters
Councillor Isaacson in the Chair.
The Committee respectfully submit the following:-
The meeting of the Administration Committee was held on Monday, October 29th, 1979
at 3:00 p.m. in the Mayor's Office.
Those in attendance were Mayor George D. Timpson, Councillor Betty Pedersen,
Councillor Earl Stewart and Councillor John West. Also in attendance was Transit
Co-ordinator Carole Allen. Regrets were received from Councillor Richard Isaacson.
1. Letter 19-107 -Memo from Transit Co-Ordinator Re: Family Trust Proposal to
Advertise in Bus Shelters.
The Committee recommends that the offer of Family Trust Real Estate to pay for a
bus shelter, primarily for advertising purposes, be denied with appreciation
extended for the offer. The reason for denial is that the Committee believes that
the presence of advertising on a large scale in one shelter will lead to the
placement of unauthorized posters or defacement of other shelters, not all owned by
the Town, located elsewhere in the Municipality.
The Committee suggests that Family Trust Real Estate consider installing benches in
existing bus shelters.
2. Letter 20-122 -Proposal From Go Transit to Erect a Bus Shelter
The Committee recommends that the proposal received from Go Transit to erect a bus
shelter in front of the Canadian Tire Store at no cost to the Town of Aurora be
approved.
3. Letter 20-139 -Memo from Transit Co-Ordinator Re: 4x12 Bus Shelters
The Committee recommends that the quotation of Ancaster Aluminum in the amount of
$889.00 for a bus shelter with walls consisting of three horizontal panels of glass
and metal be approved. The Committee also recommends that the painted parts of
such shelters be finished in blue.
It will be necessary for the Town to install the appropriate concrete foundations
slabs for the shelters.

COUNCIL MEETING ••• MONDAY, NOVEMBER 5th, 1979
-22-
REPORTS OF COMMITTEES (continued)
Item 1 Letter 18-112 -Sewer Location -Mill Street
Mr. Borgdorff's report on moving the sewer to the east to minimize damage to the
road was discussed. The Committee recommend that the sewer remain on the road
allowance to avoid having to take an easement on the private property to the east.
Item 2 -Letter 15-155 -Surface Treatment (Roads) was received as information.
Item 3 -Sewer and Water Lateral Costs
The Committee reconsidered this item but still make the same recommendation to
Council.
Item 4 -1979 Construction Budget
The Committee reviewed the 1979 Construction Budget. In view of the urgency of
this matter, the Chairman was instructed to bring this report directly to Council
in Committee prior to the presentation of this report.
Item 5 Letter 20-19 -Reconstruction of Berczy, Larmont and Mosley Streets
The Committee expressed concern at the delays in commencing this project and
questioned the Town Engineer regarding the progress that would be made this year
and the possibility of extra costs to the Town if any asphalt paving failed over
the winter.
Mr. Borgdorff was certain that the first asphalt lift on the roads would be laid
this year. As the Contractor was one month late starting the work he felt that any
additional asphalt work because of cold conditions would be the contractor's
responsibility.
Item 6 -Letter 20-26 -Sterling Drug Ltd. -Intersection of Murray Drive and
Yonge Street
The Committee recommend that a letter be sent to Sterling Drug Ltd. describing what
work is proposed at the intersection of Yonge Street and Murray Drive and our
projection of future traffic patterns.
Item 7 Letter 17-89 -Ministry of the Environment re: Resource Recovery
The Committee recommend agreement in principle to the Minister's suggestion subject
to agreement in detail in negotiations with the Minister's staff. The total
estimated deficit next year would not be more than $20,000 with the Town share
$10,000.
Item 8 -Letter 15-250 -Drainage 77 Foreht Crescent
The Town Solicitor is of the opinion that the Town has no legal obligation in this
case. Council is free to do work in this area but would create an awkward
precedent.
The Committee recommend that no work, except of an emergency nature, be undertaken
until the owners of the properties involved make an agreement to pay their share of
the costs.
Item 9 -Letter 19-28 -1-3 Hawthorne Lane -Storm Connection
The Committee received the Town Superintendent's verbal report that no storm
connection was required in this case. While agreeing that this might be
technically correct, the Committee expressed concern that this might contravene our
own By-law regarding connection of weeping tiles to sanitary sewers. The matter
was referred back to the Town Superintendent to investigate the legal aspect.

Consultant for this work and referred the matter to the next meeting for further
information and the amount of work involved.
Item 11 -Red & Gold Club, Aurora High School
Councillor Jones reported that the Red & Gold Club were preparing to have sidewalks
and driveways cleared of snow for the handicapped and the elderly.
The Committee recommend that the Town purchase not more than 24 suitable snow shovels

Item 12 -1979 Budget -Item 3200-25
Garage Pit or Hoist-$7,ooo;oo
The Superintendent reports that after consideration he is of the opinion that a
hoist would be a better investment than a pit because of the additional types of
work possible. The estimated cost of this item is now $16,000.00. The Committee
recommend deferral.
Pressure Washer -$1,200
This unit is a cold water unit and further investigation has shown this to be less
effective than expected. The Committee recommend the purchase of a hot-water
pressure washer at the approximate cost of $3,500.00.

RESOLUTIONS (continued)
Income Tax Exemption
Volunteer Firefighters
Pedersen: Whereas the Income Tax Act, Section 5 (l) (B) (VIII) provides an
Isaacson: exemption of $300.00 for expenses incurred in the discharge of duties as
a volunteer firefighter, has not been amended since its adoption in
1961,
And Whereas $300.00 is not a realistic amount of money at the present
time,
And Whereas the difficulty of obtaining volunteer firefighters is very
prevalent,
And Whereas a change in the exemption would provide added incentive
therefore encouraging present and future volunteer firefighters to
remain in this most essential service,
And Whereas the total cost to Canadian citizens of providing this tax
incentive to volunteer firefighters is much less than the total cost of
paying full-time firefighters in all the small communities of Canada to
provide this same service,
And Whereas the Minister of Treasury and Economics for the Province of
Ontario supports this recommendation,
Therefore Be It Resolved that the Council of the Town of Aurora request
the Federal Minister of Finance to increase the exemption to at least
$1,000.00,
And Further that this Resolution be sent to Ontario Small Urban
Municipalities and Association of Municipalities of Ontario for their
endorsation to the local M.P., Han. Sinclair Stevens, and to the Prime
Minister, The Right Han. Joe Clark, and Mr. Jim Gillies, P.M.O.
