V Page 2 The Canadian Statesman. Bowmanville, July 2,1997 Casino Planned at Port of Newcastle? Mayor is Aware of Possibility From page 1 tccts back in 1991 and has witnessed the gradual introduction introduction of improvements recommended recommended in the study. "But if it was such a good report," he asked the mayor, "I wonder why the villages of Newcastle and Orono weren't nudged a bit to join in. They have lost six or seven years, and with the development that has taken place it should have gone hand in hand." The mayor responded: "We're not going to come in and tell the business people what to do. It's up to them to decide what they want for the future of this town." She added that there's "not a lot of money floating around." After the meeting, Mr. Trim said he felt that it's not too late for Newcastle to put together its own master plan. Ideally, it should blend input from professional architects as well as locals who have a knowledge of the past, he says. And there is no shortage of intelligent community- minded people to draw on, said Trim. Among other issues discussed discussed at last Thursday's meeting were new streets to accommodate increased traffic traffic into the Port of Newcastle development. A new wider street would mean the future loss of the hole-in-the-wall bridge where the CN train tracks cross Mill. Brcnton Rickard, president of the Ratepayers Association asked if rumors were true 'EZ' Rocked into Summer From page 1 The selection committee consisted of Program Director Gene Stevens, Production Manager/Operations Coordinator Rod Chicorli and News Director Scott Metcalfe who reviewed the tapes and came up with a "short list of candidates, says a media release from EZ Rock.

"I have to be there a haif-an- hour early so I can make sure the microphone (and other equipment) is working," Ryan said. He noted that during the tour of the radio station, he and the other youngsters were shown how the equipment worked. Ryan explained that lie would be giving traffic reports on an "as needed" basis during his three-hour shift.On Sunday morning, he was still trying to decide if he would stay at the D A L T] A W E S M A G : P I G S T Y.

Day to Remember Although he only stayed for his three hour stint, it will be a day to remember for Ryan who will be entering Grade 7 in the fall at M.J. Hobbs Senior Public School. Perhaps, if no one really believes what he actually did on the last day of June, he can play the tape EZ Rock made of Kids Day. That's sure to convince convince the non-believers! about the possibility of a casino in the cards for the lake front development. Mayor Diane Hamrc said she is aware that Kaitlin group officials, who arc currently currently building a 1,000-unit housing development at the lakcfront, arc talking with high-level provincial officials to get the go ahead for a casino casino there. Although the citizens have recourse to a referendum if plans arc for a big casino, there is no such public veto power if plans involve a smaller charitable casino. Casino licences arc issued by the province. "All the municipality deals with is the land use, and any commercial zoning allows for a charitable casino," Mayor Hamrc told the Newcastle ratepayers. She is doubtful, however, that a giant casino would pop up at the lake. "We're not a Windsor," she said, adding that she has an open mind regarding a small casino. Other issues discussed were: a growing litter problem problem at Foster Creek park, the acquisition of public lands at the lakcfront, and the town's impending decision on where to locate a proposed Seniors' Centre.
