A special meeting of Regional Chairman Walter Beath, and ail members of the regional finance, works 'and planning and develop- ment committees is being held today to receive a report proposing a study of sewer and water ýservicing and financing in Brooklin. Thc report asks the com- mittees to recommend to council that the finance, works and planning and devclopment departments under the general direction of &le Chef Administrative Officer undertake a study concerning the financial impact that the provision of water and sanitary sewer service to Brooklin would have on- the region. The report also recom- mends the -adoption of a séries of terms-of reference, anid that the Town of Whitby receive the results of the study upon uts completion and apprmfa by regional council. two basic alternatives are to be examined by the study if it is approved: a no-growth situation which would provide services to the existing hamlet of Brooklin, and a growth proposal to a population of 10,000. Brooklin presently bas a population of 1,800. T2his proposaI is recom- mended by Whitby with respect 10 population, housing mix and develop- ment areas, as discussed ai public meetings during the past vear. It will be assumei that housing development will commence in 1980 and be carried out over a period of 10 years, according to the terms of reference of the proposed study. Three population alterna- tives would be explored, the report states: growth of Brooklin replacing growth in other parts of the region, growth in Brooklîn in addi- tion to growth in other parts of the region, or a 50-50 combination of the two. Among the items to be evaluated are the proposai by Consolidated Building Corporation to finance the construction of trunk water and sewer uines -to Brooklin, and the effect 0f front-ending development on mainten- ance costs. Requirements and timing for servicîng will be studied, and the effect of the proposaI on the region's capital budget. The fianl report will compare the no-growth and growth to 10,000 alternatives, and offer a series of recom- mendations to the regional committees. The region was recently requested by the Town of Whitby te undert.ake a financial analysis with respect to sewer and water costs reulting from the developmnent of Brooklin 10 a population of approximately 10,000. The request was referred to the finance, works and ÊÊan!ngandpieel et committees for a report. The study, if undertaken, will constitute one of the final inputs into the town's decision as 10, future develop- ment in Brooklin. Other input is being provided by the town's consultant, Donovan F. Pinker Consult- ants Ltd., and the.submis- sions received ai various public meetings. The proposai being presented today is that the staff of the finance, works and planning and develop- ment departmnents of the region be employed in the study, which wduld take three 10 four months to complete.
