The private properties planted were made up within the 4 counties of'the District namely Victoria County - 11, Durham -i11, Peterborough - 13 and Northumberland - 21. A total of 867,000 trees were planted. The species planted consisted of White Pine, Red Pine, Jack Pine, White Spruce, Norway Spruce, White Cedar, European Larch, Silver Maple, Red Oak, White Ash, Caroline Poplar, Black Walnut, Black Locust, Cottonwood and Willow. The objective for this plant- ing was for Forestry purposes which include the production of wood and wood products, provisions of proper environ- mental conditions for wildlife, protection against floods and erosion, recreation, and pro- tection and maintenance of water supplies. Boy Scout and Wolf Cub Planting Under the program of Trees for Canada,fover 200 scouts and cubs from Rosenrath, Grafton, Gore's Landing, Creighton Heights and Co- bourg planted 6200 Red Pine trees on the Northumberland County Forest area. Boy Scouts and Wolf Cubs from Ennismore planted a wind break around Ennismore Arena, -Scouts and Cubs from Lakefield planted part of a municipally-owned lot in Lakefield. - and more boys from Ennismore joined those from Buckhorn, Bridgenorth and Fairview to plant part of a property owned by Otonabee Region Conservation Author- ity which is located in Ennis- more Twp. At these 3 locations over 200 boys were involved in planting over 10,000 trees on May 3, 1975. In the City of Peterborough itself, the City Parks Depart- ment co-operated by allowing Scouts and Cubs to plant trees in Armour Hill Park, in Jackson Park and along the "West end drainage ditch". Trees were also planted on a 350 acre property recently acquired by Otonabee Region Conservation Authority north- east of Warsaw. Over 600 boys from Peterborough were in- volved in planting over 35,000 trees, with about 5000 of them being planted within the city limits of Peterborough itself. Also the scouts and cubs from Lindsay and surrounding areas planted 10 acres of Red Pine trees on the Ganaraska Conservation Authority pro- perty. StreamSurvey Program in Lindsay District B. Beecher, Lindsay Unit Management Biologist Again this year the Ministry of Natural Resources will be conducting its stream survey program in the Lindsay Dis- trict. This rogram is design- ed to provide the Ministry with basic information on surveyed streams to facilitate better management of these re- sources. Such information as basic water chemistry, fish, invertebrate, and aquatic plant species along with water temperatures, stream grad- ient, and volume of stream- flow provide the basis for management decisions con- cerning, in particular, the fisheries. Last year a number of important trout streams flowing into Lake Ontario were surveyed in the areas of Oshawa, Whitby, Bowman- ville, Newcastle, Port Hope and Cobourg. The stream surveyors are presently We have noticed a number of problems in some barley fields and we. have been unable to identify wbat these problems might be. In the cases we have seen, the top - 1 to 2 inches of barley leaves are yellowed with a brownish dying edge to that portion of the leaf. We originally thought that is was possibly barley yellow dwarf virus, which is transmitted by an aphid, however, it now appears that this is not the cause of the injury on the leaves. Carl Bereza, provincial Pest ntocialist is checking further notify farmers as soon as possible as to what it might be. Again, we urge all farmers t o please check their fields for alfalfa weevil and cereal leaf beetles specifically and any other insect damage that you might see. If you are not sure as to what the damage ior what a certain insect mght be, please contact the Agri- cultural Office in Bowman- ville and we will be glad to take a look at it for you.

Rickard Mayor SCALE IN FEET J. M. Mctilroy Clerk o600 600 3200 EXPLANATORY NOTE EXPLANATION OF THE PURPOSE AND EFFECT OF BY-LAW NO. 75-27 During 1974 the Town of Newcastle commenced detailed planning studies under the Auspices of the Ontario Housing Action Program. One of the areas being studied is the Courtice area. Also during 1974 the Town of Newcastle commenced the preparation of a District Plan for the Town of Newcastle District Planning Area. This District Plan, which has been adopted by the Counci 1of the Corporation of the Town of Newcastle, designates the Courtice area as an Environmental Study Area. Section 4(14) of the District Plan states that lands designated Environmental Study Area will require detailed planning studies prior to permitting any development other than minor infilling and the continuation of existing uses. Section 4(14) (c) of the District Plan provides that lands designated Environmental Study Area be placed in a rural or development zoning category or be zoned for their specific existing use in implementing zoning by-laws. Zoning By-law No. 2111, however, places considerable acreages of undeveloped land in the Courtice area in zoning categories which permit urban development. in order to implement these policies of the District Plan and to ensure that development will not Take place winin trie Courtice area which would adversely affect the planning studies being carried out under the Ontario Housing Action Program, the Council of the Corporation of the Town of Newcastle has deemed it advisable to amend Zoning By-law No. 2111 to place all currently undeveloped lands in the Courtice area in a Development (D) Zone. This amendment to Zoning By law No. 2111 is consistent with the policies contained in Section 4(2) of the Officiai Plan of the Darlington Planning Area which provides that areas designated for specific land uses in the Officiai Plan may be zoned under a holding, or similar zoning category,,in order to delay their development for their designated use until such lands are ready for such development and until the standards appropriate to the designated use can be satisfied. -.
