1. Review of September 23rd, 1982 Meeting (continued)
(b) History of Aurora

of Holland Landing and feel that she is ·ell qualified to rewrite the
History of Aurora from the years 1900 to the present date.
A resume of her experience is attached to this report along with a

(c) Town of Aurora/Chamber of Commerce Brochure
The Committee, having inspected the final mock up of the brochure and
having consult~d with the Chamber of Commerce Brochure Committee, who
have accepted the format, do recommend its acceptance by Council and
ask that permission to print 10,000 copies at a total cost of $8,160.82
including 9% Federal and 7% Provincial taxes, jointly shared by the
Town and the Chamber as approved by Council on August 16th, 1982
meeting.
(d) O.I.D.C. 1983 Summer Meeting
The Committee have been busy making contacts in regard to speakers,
entertainment and bussing, and have prepared an outline of the program
for this event.
(e) Tripsed Investments Limited (25 acres)
As the Company is presently negotiating to sell 17 acres of this
property to a manufacturing firm, they have withdrawn their offer to
sell this property to the Town of Aurora at this time.
2. Universal Insulations Company Limited
Following extensive ongoing negotiation precipitated by the Town of Aurora
in May of 1981 to exchange a Town owned property west of the Legion Hall for
a property owned by Universal at the end of Scanlon Court, the Committee
has received a letter from the President of Universal agreeing to the
exchange at terms acceptable by the Committee. The Committee recommends
that Council accept these terms and authorize the Clerk-Administrator to
draw up the necessary exchange documents and further that Council authorize
the Mayor and Clerk-Administrator to sign these transfer agreements. (See
attached sketch of properties)
3. Yermus Mortgage Agreement (Part 1; Plan 65R2868)

After discussions between the Chairman of the Economic Development Committee
and the Planning Department of the Region of York, it is agreed to by Mr.
Weinburg, Commissioner of Planning, that by redesignating to "open space"

The Committee recommends that Council instruct staff to study this matter
and advise Council as to where this Industrial land designation could be
best utilized.
Revised Industrial and Commercial List
The Committee studied a new method of preparing an Industrial and Commercial
List combined with General Information about Aurora to be produced in a
booklet form that could be sold or given free to persons requesting this
information.
The Committee agreed that this would be a better method than is presently
being used and would recommend that Council authorize staff to further study

8.
The solicitor for the Old Park Holdings has offered to sell to the Town of
Aurora, 70.831 acres of land on the south side of Wellington Street East,
31.1 acres are zoned Industrial, 20 acres are designated as "Open Space" and
19 acres are too low to have sewers.
The Committee studied this proposal and recommends to Council that they do
not accept this offer at the proposed price. (See letter attached)
Allaura Investments Repurchase Part 2, Plan 65R3352
The Committee would recommend that Council instruct the Clerk-Administrator
to have the necessary documents prepared by our solicitors to complete the
transfer of these lands back to the Town of Aurora and that the original
purchase price be returned to the purchaser as set out in paragraph # 14,
section (a) of the original sales agreement.
New Business
As the Provincial Government is now studying a Bill to authorize
Municipalities to require all businesses to be registered with the
Municipalities, the Committee wishes to go on record that they agree that
all businesses should be required to register with ~he Town if they wish to
operate within the geographic limits of the Town.
The Committee also feel that a registration fee of at least $50.00 be
charged at time of registration which could be all or partly refundable
should the said business cease to operate and this refund could encourage
the said business to de-register with the Town and provide the Town with
more accurate information for tax purposes.
The Committee recommends that Council instruct the Clerk-Administrator to
pursue this matter and report back to Council his recommendations as to its
imp 1 ement at ion.
Before adjourning the meeting, the Chairman thanked the Committee members for their
assistance over the past two (2) years which had been the most fruitful of the six
(6) years that the Committee had been in existance.
