The Committee recommends that the Director of Leisure Services meet with the

that was proposed earlier in the year.
C. NEW BUSINESS
1. Andy Investments re: Park Dedication
The Committee reviewed the open space areas in the floodplain and Block C,
the proposed active park for this development. The Committee recommended
that a neighbourhood park be created in an area accessible to all residents
within reasonable walking distance. This park to include benches, park
light, tree planting and a creative playground. The Committee further
recommended that a walkway system be created from the west to the east
consisting of a limestone path. The Block C proposal was not acceptable to
the Committee at this time. The Committee awaits the landscape design for
the above areas before approving the concept plan.
2. Southold Investments re: Enlarged Commercial Area
The Committee reviewed the revised park drawing showing a commercial area.
Approximately 2,600 square metres of land had been removed from the park.
The Committee's concerns were:
(a) blind area in the western corner behind the proposed commercial
block,
(b) lack of street frontage.
The Committee recommended that the commercial block be reduced to 49 m X
31.5 m and that Southold Investments be requested to report on the viability
of the size of the commercial development.
The Committee expressed concerns regarding the second Phase of Lakeview
development and the intrusions into the park causing a blind area in the
eastern end and would recommend that Lakeview be notified of the Committee's
concerns.

3. Corridor Investments re: Park Dedication
In an earlier meeting, Mr. Mike Welch of Montague and Pound, proposed to the
Town that their client would give the Town the open space block in the
north-west and south-east corner of the total plan in lieu of cash. In
reviewing the topography and drainage of the area, the Committee recommends
that since the majority of the land was poorly drained, and the slope varies
from 5% to 15%, the proposal was not acceptable.
4. Standard Scale Mapping
The Committee recommends that all developers be requested to provide a
standard scale mapping of their development, so that all maps can be
inter joined.
D. OTHER MATTERS
1. Easement Ditch -Child Drive
The Committee expressed a concern about erosion and maintenance of the
stretch from Glass Drive to Johnson Road. The Committee recommended that
the S.L.S.C.A. review the possibilities of enclosing the ditch and the
restoration of the driveway/gabion baskets at 35 Glass Drive.
2. Aurora South Secondary Plan
It was recommended that this report be discussed at the next meeting of the
Leisure Services Advisory Committee.
3. Tender for Consulting Services for the Leisure Complex
The Director of Leisure Services will be mailing out invitational letters to
sixteen (16) consulting firms to perform the basic services of the
Architect. Closing date will be Friday, January 4th, 1985 and the Committee
will review the submissions on Wednesday, January 9th, 1985.
The Committee further recommends that an expenditure of up to $500.00 be
approved in the preparation of the interview and related data pertinent to
the selection of a consulting firm.
4. Canteen
The Committee reviewed the profit/loss statement in the canteen from January
to November. This year's overall profit was up 20% compared to last year
and inventory was decreased by 35% resulting in a better turnover of stock.
The Committee deferred the review of the operation of the canteen until all
1984 statements are finalized.

The Committee respectfully submits the following:
A meeting of the Public Safety Committee was held on Tuesday, December 4, 1984 at

Present Were: Councillors Tim Jones and Martin Paivio, Fire Chief Stu Wilson and
Citizen Member Carl Weisser.
Regrets From: Citizen Members T. Bessant and 0. Khamissa.
A. CORRESPONDENCE
1. Letter # 21-142 -Resthaven -Dr. Rose
The Committee discussed this location and conclude that there well could be
a blind spot on the hill where this parking entrance and exit is located.
Further, as it is a busy area, the Committee recommends the installation of
caution signs on Mill Street on either side of the entrances to Resthaven in
an effort to slow traffic at this location.
2. Letter # 22-145 -Joanne Smith
The Committee appreciates the letter of recognition for our firefighters for
their work at our major fire on November 25, 1984 and would also extend its
appreciation and recognition to our Department and, to those who assisted
the Department and families who endured this terrible fire.
B. OTHER MATTERS
1. C.E. Gowan memo dated November 22, 1984 re: Volunteer Firefighters
Remuneration and Aurora Volunteer Fire Brigade memo re: Volunteer
F1ref1ghters Remuneration
The Deputy Clerk advised the Chairman on the Policy regarding payment to the
Volunteers. The Volunteers had some further inquiries. It is requested
that the Deputy Clerk respond to the Chairman on these inquiries.
)
2. C.E. Gowan memo dated December 4, 1984 re: Insurance Coverage -
Firefighters
The Deputy Clerk advises that information is in the mail from our insurers
on this matter. It is recommended that this information be forwarded to the
Chairman for review and dissemination as appropriate.
3. S.G. Wilson/F.J. Bolsby memo dated November 12, 1984 re: Municipal Street
Numbering
The Chief and Fire Prevention Officer recommends that all plazas in Town be
assigned one (1) designated street number and that all sub-units of each
plaza be assigned unit numbers. Currently, some plazas are structured this
way, while others have separate addresses for each unit. The principle
reason is for better identification for emergency response. This is
especially pertinent in plazas that house different uses (i.e. -,retail
stores, restaurants, beauty parlour, barber shop and numerous apartments).
With units clearly numbered and one (1) address, emergency response is
facilitated. Postal concerns and continued use of existing letterhead until
replacement can occur, should be able to be worked out with the post
office. The Committee concurs and recommends this numbering for Council's
consideration.

B. OTHER MATTERS (continued)
4. Mayor's Memo dated November 30, 1984 re: Orchard Heights/Hill Drive
The Committee reiterates its recommendation to have school warning signs
posted and would ask this be done as soon as possible. Further, with the
removal of the barracades and the increased traffic flow Bathurst to Yonge,
the Committee recommends warrants be taken between January 15 and January
30, 1985 for stop sign purposes. These dates are suggested with
consideration to this first phase. Completion for houses in that area in
order to ensure warrants are done with maximum consideration.
5. C.E. Gowan memo dated November 30, 1984 re: School Guard Patrols
The Deputy Clerk advises that the York Regional Police have indicated that
they do not have any programs covering school patrols or crossing guards.
The Committee would recommend that Council request that the Police Board
consider such an addition to be worked in with their existing public
awareness programs on child proofing, residential security and neighbourhood
watch for 1985.
6. Fire Chief S.G. Wilson memo dated November 22nd, 1984 re: Capital
Expenditures
The Committee would recommend this budget recommendation to Council for its
consideration. It should be noted in reviewing our Five (5) Year Capital
Budget, we have repriorized our needs, and switched 1985 and 1986 requests.
7. Deputy Chief D. Patrick memo re: Occupational Health and Safety Newsletter
The Committee agrees that this subject is pertinent, however, the cost of
such a newsletter in priority to other publications received was not
considered justifiable for one department only. This request is recommended
by Committee to be referred to the Administration/Finance Committee and the
Clerk for their review.
8. Burning By-Law
In considering permitting burning at all in the urban area of Aurora, the
Chief noted that of the 158 permits granted last year 54 were in the urban
area, the balance being in either the rural area or by developers in the
urban area boundary. It was concluded that burning should cant i nue to be
permitted in both urban and rural.
Further, after review, the Committee would recommend to Council the revised
burning by-law as submitted by the Fire Prevention Officer and the Chief.
The basic change being the necessity for a signed permit which more formally
identifies the burning situation and responsibility for same. In view of
increasing legal and liable situations, it is deemed by the Committee that
this formal recognition of responsibility gives the Town more protection in
the event of a fire or damage resulting from a verbally approved burning
permit being issued. Several other towns have already instituted this
practice.
9. Fence -Murray Drive
The Committee had expected a quote for a fence at the walkway north of Glass
Drive at the crosswalk. The Committee recommends this quote be prepared for
the next Council in Committee meeting.

Report# 120 -Planning Committee ••• Various Matters
The Committee respectfully submits the following:
A meeting of the Planning Committee was held on Monday, December 10, 1984 in the
Administrative Centre.
Present Were: Councillor E. Buck, Chairperson; Councillor J. West; Mrs. S.
Seibert, Planner; Mr. R. Harrington, Secretary.
Councillor M. Paivio, absent.
A. DELEGATIONS:
1. Willow Farm/Rogers Estate, Part Lot 85, Cone. 1, WYS
Mr. John Dewar, Planner, and Mr. Brian Corbett, Solicitor, for the Owner,
addressed the Committee regarding the proposed plan of subdivision.
Mrs. Seibert's comments were read in regard to a letter from Dr. Elder on
St. Johns Sideroad West. Director of Public Works, William Walker's
comments were also read by Mrs. Seibert.
Special attention was paid to the revised plan by the Committee to see if it
conformed to the Official Plan Amendment.
There will be one road access at each end of the plan, fronting on St. Johns
Sideroad. Eleven lots in area of 1 3/4 to 2 acres will also front on St.
Johns Sideroad. The lots will share driveways, and therefore, five driveways
will access onto the road.
The Committee felt the intent of the Official Plan Amendment was being met,
in relation to the large lots and their access. However, the Committee felt
the interior lots, which would be urban-serviced lots, and which increased
from 200 to 300 in number, with areas of 7,500 square feet to 14,000 square
feet, with some 50-foot frontages, posed a problem in regard to the Official
Plan Amendment. The revised plan, viewed by the Committee, was not the same
as presented at the Public Meeting, and this was a concern to the-Gommittee.
Mrs. Seibert will be preparing a brief report to accompany the Planning
Committee Minutes for Council.

The Committee's balance at November 16 stood at $5,126.72. This included
recovery costs of $283.00, being a cheque for that sum unaccountably
recef\Fed .. li.Y tfie' Town from Heritage Canada. The Treasury Department is to
determine the reason for this payment.
L. Ostick informed the Committee that invoices to be paid from 1984 budgets
are to be received by the Town by December 14, 1984.
L. Oliver outlined proposed budget allocations for the balance of 1984 and
these were approved. It was noted that it would be necessary to arrange

these companies will be passed to the Town Purchasing Officer for action as
soon as Council has approved erection of the marker.
7. Recognition Plaquing
The Mayor's Office is to approach the five owners of candidate properties
who did not reply to the request for permission to erect recognition
plaques. It was agreed that plaques be ordered for the seven properties for
which approval has been received.

At the request of the Fire Chief, the Researcher has carried out some
investigation of the history of the bell at the fire hall. While a bell for

Report# 123-Administration and Finance Committee ••• Various Matters
The Committee respectfully submits the following:
A meeting of the Administration and Finance Committee was held on Wednesday,
December 12, 1984 at 3:30p.m. in the Administration Centre.
Present Were: Mayor Illingworth, Councillors Stewart and West and
Clerk-Administrator K.B. Rodger.
A. CORRESPONDENCE
1. Letter# 22-135 -Aurora Hydro· re: 1985 Capital Expenditures
The Aurora Hydro Electric Commission adopted a rate structure for 1985,
subject to the approval of Ontario Hydro, and a capital budget. Total
expenditures planned by Aurora Hydro exceed expected income from rates and
contributed capital by an estimated $400,000. Therefore, the Commission
requests that Council of the Town of Aurora include in its 1985 capital
expenditure forecast the amount of $400,000 as a possible loan to Aurora
Hydro.
The Committee recommends that Treasury staff be authorized to loan Aurora
Hydro up to $400,000 as requested at the same terms and conditions as
previously authorized, OMB approval be necessary and Ontario Hydro be
advised accordingly.
The Committee is concerned that Ontario Hydro has increased the cost of
power to Aurora Hydro by 8.4 percent resulting in an average rate increase
to residential consumers in Aurora of 8.2 percent. This is contrary to
stated government policy of limiting increases to 5 percent.
Therefore, the Committee recommends a letter be forwarded to the Minister of
Energy and the Chairman of Ontario Hydro objecting to a rate increase of
more than five percent and requesting an explanation.
2. Letter # 22-138 -The Lions Club of Aurora re: Chirstmas Basket Fund
The Aurora Lions Club will be delivering Christmas baskets to the needy and
sick families in and surrounding Aurora, which they have done for the past
40 years. Financial assistance is requested.
While the Committee agrees that this is a most worthwhile project, it
recommends that no action be taken and encourages citizens to contribute on
an individual basis.
3. Letter # 22-141 -Kinsmen Clubs re: Messages of Support
Last year, the Kinsmen Club of Aurora joined more than 600 other clubs to
contribute over $22.5 million to Canadian communities. Once a year, Kinsmen
ask their communities to assist the Association in a special issue of their
national magazine with a message of support.
While the Committee acknowledges the community work of the Kinsmen, it
recommends that no action be taken.
4. Letter# 22-144-Fire Chief S. Wilson re: 1985 Proposed Capital
Expenditures
The Committee recommends that this submission be referred to the next
