been requested that the $500 deposit be applied to outstanding taxes. A
request has· been received for interest on the $500 for the period it was
held by the Town.
The Committee recommends no action as it is town policy not to pay interest
on deposits in hopes that the work will be completed and the deposit
returned as soon as possible.
UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Preserve Aurora in Paint -Aurora Art Show
Council policy is that the Town of Aurora has the right of first refusal to
purchase the winning painting under the "Preserve Aurora" section of the Art
Show, up to a value of $500. Council also agreed that in the case of a tie
for first place only one (1) painting be purchased and no painting purchased
be a repetition of a painting already owned by the Town. Timing is very
important as following the judging, if the Town does not make an offer, the
painting goes on general sale.
The Committee recommends that two citizen members and one Council member of
the Leisure Services Committee be delegated to make the decision as to
whether to make the purchase or not.

C. NEW BUSINESS
1. Legion Bantam Hockey Tournament
On Saturday, January 26, 1985, the Aurora Legion will host the Annual Legion
Bantam Hockey Tournament. Seven Legion teams from various parts of Ontario
will be in Aurora to pay the Aurora Legion team.
Our charge for the Community Centre is $60 an hour or approximately $500 for
the day. Last year in Woodbridge, the charge for ice time was $20 per
hour. The Legion points out the proceeds, if any, are used for community
work, and have requested a lower rental rate or a grant to offset all, or
part, of the rental of the ice.
As the Town provides a subsidy for ice time and offsets the cost of ice time
for the Town of Aurora Bantam Tournament, the Committee recommends no action
be taken due to the precedent which may be set.

Report # 112 -Administration and Finance Committee ••• Community Centre
Reorganization
The Committee respectfully submits the following:
With the resignation of the Community Centre Manager as of January 13, 1984, the

extra job responsibilities without extra remuneration.
Staff reports have been received from the Director of Leisure Services and the
Clerk-Administrator.
1. Community Centre Foreman (D. Patrick)
The Committee makes the following recommendations:
(a) That an interim adjustment of $1,500 be paid to Mr. D. Patrick for

(b) That a review of classification be undertaken effective January 1,
1985 when 1985 job descriptions, classification and staffing are

3. Lead Hand
The Director of Leisure Services recommends that consideration be given to
the hiring or designating a lead hand in the Community Centre. The Clerk
Administrator recommends that a new job description and rate structure be
drafted, and negotiated with the CUPE local.

principle, and a new job description and rate structure be prepared for

to Council.

The Committee recommends no action at this time until further information is
available.

schedule be evaluated to utilize proper staff complements. The
Clerk-Administrator advises that the last increase to part-time employees
was March 30, 1983 retroactive to November 1, 1982.

Report # 113 -Economic Development Committee ••• Various Matters
The Committee respectfully submits the following:
A meeting of the Economic Development Committee was held on Thursday, November
15th, 1984 at 7:00p.m. in the Administrative Centre.
Present Were: Councillors Earl Stewart, Tim Jones and Richard Barker.
1. Promotional Video Tape
The Committee viewed a demonstration film from Leighton and Kidd who wished
to interest Aurora in making a promotional video tape.
The Committee discussed the cost benefits of such a film and the cost of the
equipment needed to show it and decided against acquiring it at this time.
2. Review of October 18th, 1984 Meeting
(a) Property Maintenance Standards By-Law
This matter is being dealt with as per Council's instructions from
the November 5, 1984 Council meeting.
(b) Bonphydarian Investments Ltd.
(i) The bill sent to the Clerk-Administrator, Bud Rodger, on May
4th, 1983 by Mr. Stone (copy enclosed) indicated a balance
owing of $2,081.25 and he waived the $300.00 for engineering
fees and the legal counsel fee of $153.80.
The total bill was for

Therefore the balance owing is
$4,912.50
2,831.25
$2,081.25
Mr. Stone is also requesting 10% interest from the due date of
this account as a penalty for non-payment.

the figure of $1,018.75 but on reviewing the statement from

2. Review of October 18th, 1984 Meeting (continued)
(b) Bonphydarian Investments Ltd. (continued)
Mr. Stone, the Ministry paid only those items pertaining
directly to the Ministry and deducted all items to do with the
Town or the Town's Engineers. Any further agreements between
Mr. Stone and the Ministry have nothing to do with the Town of
Aurora.
Therefore, the Ministry paid Mr. Stone for 37.75 hours at
$75.00 or $2,831.25.
The total hours billed were
and if you deduct
you will find the town's share is
comes out to
65.50 hours
37.75 hours
27.75 hours X $75.00
$2,081.25.
The Committee is still of the opinion that this is a legitimate
bill and should be paid immediately as any hold up on payment
wi 11 only prevent further negotiations for the i nsta 11 at ion of
the gravity sewer line to St. John's Sideroad and the purchase
of the land for the last link of the industrial parkway from
Revlis properties to the St. John's Sideroad.
The issue of requiring the water easement to be registered in
the name of the Town prior to paying this bill is extraneous as
when the roadway is purchased by the Town, the easement will
become superfluous.
(ii) Survey Costs for York Durham Easement
As to the cost of the survey for that portion of the Industrial
Parkway North of the Town's Industrial Park through the Revlis
lands and through the Densbury or Bonphydarian lands to the
St. John's Sideroad was $4,298.00 (see enclosed invoice) which
was taken from the Industrial Park account in April 1982.
The Ministry is willing to reimburse the Town for $3,300.00 and
the Committee feels that the entire cost of the survey should
be credited back to the Industrial Park Account when payment is
received from the Ministry of Government Services as this
survey was made outside the boundaries of the Industrial Park #
2 and should never have been charged to this account.
The Committee would ask Council to settle these matters.
(c) Lakeview Sales Office
(d)
The Committee is awaiting permission from Lakeview Estates Limited
to move this facility to the Vandorf/Yonge Street location and total
estimated costs are being prepared.
Printing of New Information Booklets
The Purchasing Co-Ordinator has let the contract for this printing

year.

1. Extending Servicing Limits
(a) Bayview Avenue Residents
A request was received from Ms. Margaret Goode and two (2)
neighbours who all live on Bayview Avenue north of the Aurora
Sideroad.
They wish to be connected to the Town water supply presently at the
Aurora Side road and Bayview. It was pointed out that there was some
doubt whether the 2" main on the Aurora Sideroad was adequate to
supply the extra houses without affecting the present consumers.

The delegation was also informed that the extension would have to be

The Director of Works was asked to investigate the situation and if
there was sufficient water available, to prepare an estimate of the
cost of installing a supply to the three (3) houses.
Ms. Goode asked if they could employ a contractor to do the work.
They were told they could but the work had to be done to the Town's
satisfaction. The Committee feels that this connection should be
deferred until a better supply is available from lands to the west.
(b) Letter # 21-178 -Mr. Malcolm Richardson
This request is premature because his property is part of the upper
pressure zone and the supply is not yet in place.

A copy of a memo from the Director of Public Works is attached.
The Committee recommends that the Town purchase a Trackless MT Municipal
Tractor c/w 51" Snowblower and a truck loading chute. This is in the 1984
Budget.
It is further recommended that the power sweeper and flail mower be
considered in the 1985 Capital Budget.
The Purchasing Co-Ordinator to negotiate the best available price.
Drainage Problem - 3 Illingworth Court
The Director of Public Works reported that all the applicable items of the
subdivision agreement had been complied with. It is his opinion that part
of the problem is a resodded vegetable garden. Permission has been given
for the installation of a tile drain by the owner if he wishes to do so.
1985 Budget
The Committee discussed the sidewalk capital and maintenance program and
suggested that the budget include an amount of money sufficient for the
first year of a five (5) year program to bring the Town sidewalks up to
standard.
The Committee suggested that the surface treatment program continue on the
basis of maintaining the existing treated streets, that have a good base and
drainage, without further deterioration.
The Committee considered a rural roads program. The Director reported that
over the past few years, a lot of ditching and drainage work had been done
but that many of the roads have too little gravel. The Director is to
produce updated prices for the next meeting when the Committee will
recommend a program to Council for Budget Discussions.
The Director reported that because of shortage of funds, the Calcium program
had been cut back by about 1/3.
The Committee suggested that the proposed 1985 budget include restoring the
level of Calcium applications.
The Committee reiterates its recommendation that when the Department sends
an account for services rendered that the money be credited to the
appropriate Works account and not general revenue.

The Committee respectfully submits the following:·
A meeting of the Planning Committee was held on Monday, November 26, 1984 in the

Mr. R. Harrington, Secretary.
Councillor E. Buck on vacation.
A. DELEGATIONS:
1. Letters #20-146, 21-48, 21-65 -Proposed Plan of Subdivision, Part Lot 82,
Cone. 1, WYS, Lakeview Estates (formerly Three Seasons property)
Mr. Max Sherman, Planner for Macroplan Limited, Consultant for the Owners,
addressed the Committee to discuss primarily locating 9-metre lots in the
planned subdivision. The 9-metre lots would be located on Kemano Drive and
April Gardens. The Committee expressed concern about the 9-metre lots on the
plan and on Kemano, as it is considered a through street.
This application will be heard at the Public Meeting on November 28, l984.
2. J.N.S. Plaza, Henderson Drive & Yonge Street South -Ground Pylon Sign
Mr. Donald Gardner, Sales Manager of Charlesign, appeared before the
Committee to discuss a planned pylon sign for the plaza. Our present Sign
By-Law would restrict the proposed sign to a maximum advertising area of 3.6
metres (11'10") x 3.6 (11'10") metres or 139 square feet in area. The
By-Law, however, does permit a sign with a maximum area of 350 square feet,
being 75% of the frontage, being 466 feet. Therefore, a discrepancy exists
in the By-Law at present.
The Committee felt the size of the proposed sign was not oversized for the
subject property, but as the present Sign By-Law is being revised, they felt
they could not grant a variance at this time. Information is being
solicited from many sources regarding the general review of the present
by-1 aw.

Regional Municipality of York for Draft Approval provided
that the following conditions are met prior to the
approval of the final plan for registration."
The Committee was concerned with only one access to the proposed
subdivision, especially in regard to fire protection.
The Committee recommends a letter be sent to the Region of York inquiring as
to why the Region sees no problem with one access to the subdivision
(including Andy Investments abutting to the east) and yet requires two
access roads to the Corridor Development on Henderson Drive, which has a
lesser number of lots.
The Committee further recommends Heron Homes and Andy Investments contribute
the cost of upgrading Kennedy Street, which would provide the necessary
second means of access.
