" Newman also reminded council that Brooklin is still a special study area in the Region of Durhar's officiai plan. He said that it was. necessary for it to remain that way until the town gets a better deal froni the developer. The former mayor also said that there were "serious conflicts in ternis of the intergration of the development agreement. " Newman also presented council with a timetable that he claimed represented the schedule of events shouid the development agreement be signed. The schedule showed that before the local sewers and road and sidewalk recon- struction were compieted in March, 1985 there would already be 550 homes buit as weîl as 25,000 square feet of individual space. "There will be .950 homes built in Brooklin and no sewers to hook to theni too," Newman said. According to Newman's calculations there wouid be 250 homes built in Whitby's northern hamiet before the trunk sewer lines were coni- pleted in December, 1983. "This deveiopment agreement is a dangerous thing for this municipality," Newman Said. He accused council of Whtby helps English sis*ter This year, the Town of to consider a feature of eps and the wall surrounding Whitby is celebrating its Whitby's heritage - the 199 them are crumnbling and in l25th anniversary and coun- church steps linking the Ah- desparate need of repair. cil has voted to help Whitby, bey and Church of St. Mary Ensfland l nlh,.nha fir. to the town.

"lleaving the future to the desire of the developer," stressing that council would have no recourse if anything ever went wrong. it wouid appear as though council did not heed his ad- vise, however, as they authorized their legal ad- visor to draw up a develop- ment agreement to be signed as soon as the offical plan amendment is ready to be submnitted to Durham Regional Council. This action shouid allow the developer to begin work sometime in 1982. The old English town is to celebrate its anniversary with events that will include a pilgramage walk along the 199 stairs, plays, concerts and banquets and fairs in t.he old Saxon style.
