All that remains now is for it to be whipped into shape for presentation to the village coun- cil. Excitement reached its peak when the victor, Jack Smith, publisher of The Liberal, arrived at his office ac- companied by bands and cheering supporters. In a very brief and hap- py speech he thanked those who had worked for him, and went on to thank his suporters in other parts of the big constituency. Town Planning Report Nearly Ready Has Unique Features, Says Tomlin From the moment the first election bulletin was posted in the window of The Liberal office at 7.10 pm. on el- ection day until the “wee sma’ hours" Rithmond Hill citizens showed by their attendance that they apprecia- ted the seryice which the paper pro- vided for the village in bringing in speedy election results. The space in front of the office window was never vacant from the time the first election result was flashed and at times a crowd of sev- eral hundred citizens over-flowed the sidewalk and covered Yonge Street to the opposite side. “It won't be long now.” That is the latest statement given by Councillor Ken Tomlin in con- nection with the presentation of the town planning report for Richmond Hill. Big Crowd Shows Appreciation 0f Paper’s Election Service A “somewhat different approach,” to employ Councillor Tomlin's words, is being utilized by his board in deal- ing with the question of town plan- ,Avri SWEEL Mull?“ made. to {consider bot'ii‘I sides ‘of the que's'tiOn â€"â€" that of the citizen interested in building a home and that of the municipality whose future depends upon what isplanned now. A unique feature, it is forecast, will be in connection with the oc- cupation of temporary quarters dur- ing the home building period. In some municipalities a cash deposit to ensure that temporary quarters will not become permanent eyesores is required. It is understood that this will not apply in Richmond Hill From the moment the first district return was received the issue of the 3635 2555 6190 1839 357 86 101 119 86 252 3443 1779 5222 1293 280 324 ADVERTISING [N GETS RESULTS THE LIBERAL 1212 1980 3192 430 A long distance view of the situa- tion was urged by thOSe councillors who favoured the immediate 'estab- lishrhent of a second school area. Richmond Hill Voters Stage Record Turnout Letters received from school sec< tions in the northern part of the township indicated a strong division of opinion, running fifty-fifty for and against, with determined opposition being revealed by those opposed to the school area plan. The long de- bate which followed the reading of the letters indicated councillors, on the whole, to be in favour of the ad- vantages of the school area plan but unwilling to force it through against the wishes of the school sections. It was pointed out by some councillors that some school sections would find themselves in a precarious position before long due to increased popula- tion and through having reached the limit of their spending powers. With- out greatly increased taxation, it was pointed out, it would be difficult for them to take care of school demands. When the vote was taken councill- ors were equally divided, two being for the establishment of the area and two against. The deciding v3te ag- ainst the area was cast by Ree 2 John Hostrawser. local campaign was never in doubt. As one sub-division after another sent in its figures it soon became ev- ident that the only question was “How big is the majority ?" As the figures of each polling division were posted in the Liberal‘s window, they were greeted with cheers, and when finally a big streamer announced “SMITH WINS” a great burst of applause went up from the crowded street. By radio and telephone results were collected speedily from all parts of the constituency and, with nation- wide reports, were posted by members of the paper’s staff, giving Richmond Hill a service as speedy and inclusive as that in any of the big cities. ' ‘Figu-res showing the results by polling sub-divisions in North York appear elsewhere in this issue. School Area For Richvale, Thomhill Langstaf f Approved The first by-law was adopted with little discussion as letters from trus- tees of school sections at Thornhill, Richvale and Langstafl‘ indicated complete approval of the plan. Con- sequently the by-law, which will em- body schools \in the three commun- ities as Area No. 1, was passed rap- idly, subject to the endorsation of Markham Township Council. Present school sections will be dissolved as at December 25th this year and an area board elected. Some financial bene- fits will accrue to the present school sections as increased grants are pay- able to them for the present year. Strong Opposition Particularly noticeable was the good temper and orderly conduct of the crowd which filled Yonge Street. No untoward incidents marked the evening and victors and vanquished alike semed to take everything in good spirits._ â€"â€" or at least will not be recommend- ed by the town planning board â€"â€" but that a broader system. designed to assist rather than to discourage home builders will be suggested. There is a possibility that certain aspects of town planning may be presented to the village council at its meeting on Tuesday; July 5th. In one of the keenest debates in many months Vaughan Township councillors, holding a.special meet- ing at Maple on June 29th, give con- sideration to two by-laws dealing with the division of the township into two school areas, replacing the pres- ent school sections.
