Council Wili Meet Special Committee About Ceunly Granig 5.-..--“ _~ BE PAVED. question is however that the street will be used easiâ€" lly ninety five per cent by county and provincial traffic and it does not seem fair, just or equitable that the people of this small municipality should be saddled with a large expenditure to provide a good highway for provincial and county traffic. Richmond Hill is entitled to a subâ€" stantial grant from the county to pay the twenty five per cent of the cost of paving Yonge Street for which this municipality is liable. At the last session of the County Council when Mimico and New Toronâ€" to were handed a mere fifty thousand to assist in the cost of widening the Lake Shore road, Reeve Lunau asked 'to for a grant of eight thousand dollars for Richmond Hill. The matter came up too late for the finance committee to deal with and it was referred to a approached them officially as a body. He explained that in the dying hours lof the June session after a grant of lfifty thousand dollars had been given New Toronto he asked for a special grant of $8000. for Richmond Hill. The finance committee had already met and finished the business of the session and he could not ask them to ’ ' '- --__‘_..L...J Ll...”- Hus special committee.. We would like to ask if the Rich- mond Hill council has aproached this special committee of the County Coun- cil relative to the grant? If they have notâ€"and we have no knowledge that they haveâ€"now is the time to do it. The council should approach the the committee and have their assur- anc'e that they will recommend to the Finance committee at the next session that Richmond Hill will get a substan- tial grant. The York County Council is made up of representatives of all the muniâ€" cipalities in the County and we ven- ture that a fairer or more honest groupe of men could not be gathered together. They are anxious to treat all matters that come up for consider- ation fairly and squarely with equal dealing for all and special privileges for none. Richmond Hill in the pres- ent situation has a case which will ap- peal to such a body of men. But it' must be presented to them in a busi- nessâ€"like way and the time for our local representatives to meet the special committee is RIGHT NOW, not after the pavement is built." This extract from the e-lit<n~ial colâ€" umn of last week’s issue of the Liber- al was mentioned at the regular sessi- on of the Richmond Hill council on Monday, and was the subject of conâ€" siderable discussion. Counci‘lo:~ Her- rington introduced the subject by stat” ing that he thought that the council should meet the special committee and lay the facts of the local situation be- fore the members. Councillor Sloan concurred in the suggestion as he felt that no harm could come out of such action and there was a possibili- ty of much good. Reeve Lunau stated that he had talked to the members of the special committee individually but had never PAGE FOUR THERE IS NO DOUBT ABOUT One Week of 312':- ea} Values in Usefl Cars 1925 Chevrolet Coach A1 condition, new tires These are genuine bargains, act quick if you want one.

It was suggested that the request of Richmond Hill along withi somewhat similar requests from Sutt- on, Markham township and Aurora be referred to a special committee who would investigate and report at the ‘next session of County Council. This iappeared satisfactory to him and he voted for it. “As soon as I learned who were on the committee I interâ€" viewed them” said Reeve Lunau “and I think they are favorable to giving a grant to Richmond Hill. If the council feel like getting in touch with the committee I’m quite satisfied" he said “but I do not think that in all fairness the committee can turn us down.” IT YONGE STREET NEEDS TO er that the street will be used easiâ€" d provincial traffic and it does not people of this small municipality nditure to provide a good highway Richmond Hill is entitled to a. sub- After considerable discussion it was decided that a committee of the Rich- mond Hill council should meet the gspecial committee and it was agreed that Reeve Lunau and councillors Her- rington and Baldock should represent the village. The Reeve will communi- Leate with the warden and find out when it will be possible to meet the committee. Regarding another item in the Libe- ral asking that lthe people be told the 1 details of the paving program includ- ing the total cost, the local municipali- ty’s share and the amount which the county would bear and when the work would be done Reeve Lunau said he could not tell what he did not know himself. He had seen statements in “the press as to when the contract would be let and as to when the work would start but he did not know where such information came from. “I cannot make statements about the road until I know where we are at, or if we did we’d soon be as big a liars as the papers” said Reeve Lunau. “Does that include the Liberal?” said Coun- cillor Sloan. “He can take it if he likes” said the Reeve. $125 Phone 68 Richmond Hi1}.
