OronoEstate issue The transfer of land bet- ween the Town of Newcastle and Home Smnitb in the Orono Estates along with the devel- opment of a commercial area in the Estates bas been resolved to the wishes of those living in the subdivision. Last week agreement was reacbed between the Town and Home Smith with the Town purchasi ng al] remain- ing lands in the Orono Estates owned by Home Smith for a purchase price of $15,fO.OO. This purchase will eliminate the pursuit to establish a commercial area at the entrance to the sub-division and places tbe lot at the south end in the hands of the Town to be continued to be used as a walkway into the Village of Orono. Previously the Town of Newcastle passed a resolut- ion endorsing the transfer of lands between the Town and Home Smith witb the condit- ion that a commercial devel- opment could be undertaken at Robiri's Road. Wben the intention of the scheme be- came known in the sub-divis- ion residents of the area opposed the plan. As a result a public meeting was held in O)rono when Orono Estates residents stated they were definitely opposed to a comn- mercial area being establisb- ed in tbe sub-division. Since that time the Townl bas been negotiating witb the Town of Newcastle and this week Mayor Rickard announ- ced that the negotiations were finalized with the Town pur- cbasing ail lands ow,%ned by Home Smith in the sub- division at a cost of $15,000.00. Mayor Rickard expects that a further meeting wil be called sometime in tne future wben the recent develop- ments will be presented to the residents of the area. During the d evelopment of the Orono Estates somne years ago the lot now used as a walkway was offered to the then Township of Clarke for a sum Of $8,O0.OO.
