But density need never be so high as to exclude good housing for fam- ilies with young children Furâ€" thermore, the careful disposition of parks, schools, community buildings and local shopping cen- tres will go a long way towards ensuring that a Neighbourhood is not inhabited by families of one age group or income level. Suitable Location' Schools A Neighbourhood unit may be likened to a ship which operates satisfactorily for short periods on its own reserves, but ultim- ately must seek aid from outside. The beauty parlor, the baker, the candy-stick maker will probably be found in most neighbourhood units, but the furniture store. the music store, the furrier, the car dealer, etc., would be deliberate» ly discouraged. Such establish- The most suitable locations for schools will be given careful con- sideration by both the Planning Board and local school boards. The walking distance from home, and the road pattern in relation to school sites will be major fac- tors influencing final decisions. As may be seen in a consider- ation of the Ofiicial Plan the Neighbourhood Units contem- plated are removed from indus- try. It is anticipated that in due time both commercial and indus- trial buildings will be required to have a license to operate fur- naces, and so control can be ex- ercised on potential sources of air pollution. by F. H. Brennan (Member of Markham Township ' Planning Board) The life of a family is not conâ€" fined within the four walls of the home; the amenities of the neigh- bourhood have a significant hear- ing on its well-being. Planning Board, in conjunction with the subdivider, endeavours to estabâ€" lish such amenities as protection, contentment, healthy environ- ment. services and genial sur- roundings. Some of these factors have been considered in previ- ous articles. Certain Types Of Retail Stores To Be Discouaged Earlier this year Council in- structed the fire committee to make arrangements to purchase a permanent site for the brigade. At present the township rents a hall from Mr. Merlin Smith at a monthly'rent of $65.00. Doncaster Speeding Deputy-Reeve Clark felt the majority of the brigade favored the main street location rather than the highway site, and that as it is°a volunteer organization of public-spirited citizens, their felings must be taken into ac- count. Acting on complaints of resi- dents of the Doncaster area of excess speeding by motor cars, the police committee (Deputy- Reeve Clark and Councillor Griffin) have Instructed the pol- ice to pay particular attention to this problem. The committee also announced that it has had another AV. 5- telephone num- ber added to the township ex- change in order to facilitate the calling of police by those people residing in the front end of the tovgnship. A recommendation tabled at Monday‘s meeting of Markham Township council by the Fire Committee (Deputyâ€"Reeve W. Clark and Councillor A. Little) regarding a possible new site for a fire hall in Unlonville will be forwarded to the Unionville P01- ice Village Trustees and Fire Brigade for study before Coun- cil makes any final decision. A suggestion by the committee that the municipality purchase an eighth of an acre site on the main street of Unionville close to the present hall was opposed by Councillor V. Griffin, who advocated that it be located on No. 7 Highway. He felt that traffic problems especially in the winter months, when the rink is in operation, rules out any loca. tion in the centre of town. (This is the ninth of a series of articles on Planning written by a member of the Markham Township Planning Board de- signed to better acquaint the public with the work of their local planners. â€" Editor.) Council has yet to set the li- cense fee and the number of nonâ€"resident pheasant hunting licenses to be issued this year. The Department of Lands and Forests recently released 500 pheasants in the township. Without further elaboration it will be abundantly clear that the creation of a good neighbourhood unit requires considerable plan- ning, and the guidance of relig- ious, educational, recreational and ratepayer groups will always be welcomed by the Planning Board. The Development of a Neigh- bourhood Unit is more common- ly left up to the several indepen- dent land development compan- ies. Planning Board alone is here to watch out for the interests of future citizens, and ensure that adequate provision is made for certain institutions vital to full community life. Wherever poss- ible, the larger Neighbourhood Unit Plans should include pro- vision for churches, a public lib- rary, curling and skating rinks, and a swimming pool. Parking Facilities Seek New Site For Unionville Fire Hall As parked cars are welcome only at drive-in theatres, the Neighbourhood Unit Plan must provide parking facilities that will jointly serve the commer- cial and institutional require- ments of the entire community. ments â€" ii they are to be profit- able â€"â€"attract outside shopping traffic to the detriment of the residential character of the Neighbourhood Unit. BARGAINS See Page As a consequence the village is adding to its activities and ser- ving its residents with increas- ing zeal. It boasts five churches, a library, its own police and fire- fighting forces; service clubs, in- cluding the Chamber of Com- merce, the Orange Order. the Masonic Order, Lions. Rotary and Kinsmen clubs. Stressing the need for the polâ€" ice to have the proper equipment to do a good job, Councillor Will- iam Agar's spoke strongly in favor of purchasing the radar system. The Council supported Councillor Agar’s stand with the exception of Councillor Robert Kirk who felt the system would tie up the complete force in stopping speeding motorists on provincial highways, and would thus sacrifice police protection in the rest of the township. The ra- dar control requires two cars and These are just a few of the historical highlights the Indus- trial Commission talks about in its interesting brochure, along with information about the Vill- age of Richmond Hill as it is to- day. ' A few years ago Richmond Hill shook itself, got up on it hind feet and took a good look ar- ound â€" and decided it had a place to play in the Ontario of today. All Out Drive For Industry And another thing. Did you know that this village was called “Mount Pleasant” prior to 1819 7when the Governor General, the fourth Duke of Richmond, visit- ed the village? To commemorate that momentous occasion the vill- agers renamed the community 'Richmond Hill‘ and adopted the Duke's crest, “En La Rose Je Fleure (In the Rose We Flour-. ism.” Back in 1837, Richmond Hill Witnessed many scenes connect- ed with the Mackenzie rebellion. including the death of the gallant Col. Moodie. ‘ Its medical facilities are bet- ter than you will find in most Ontario towns and its schools are modern and well-disciplined. In February of 1956, 1,885 new homes were either ready for 0c- cupancy or under construction in the village and another school, which will have 16 rooms. is planned for an early opening in 1957. It is 20 miles from Lake On- tario and the potential benefits of The device was needed because of a new agreement with the De- partment of Highways which makes it possible for the town- ship police to collect fines for speeding on provincial highways providing a motorist is stopped in order to prefer the charge. Tie Up Police Find fout more and more about the history of this Village, which fir§t came intp being in 1782. Richmond Hill, we pointed out earlier, is ideally located for quick access to all world mark- ets, by air, rail and water travel. A new radar speed meter. cost- ing around $1100., is to be pur- chased for the Vaughan ~Town- ship police, Vaughan Toknship Council decided at its meeting on Monday. The portable radar sys. tem will use two policemen op- erating about oneâ€"half mile ap- art and its accuracy is consider- ed ’_to be beyond dispute.

Apart from the long established ralway services given by the C. N.R., the village of Richmond Hill is just 20 miles from the Malton airport, from which 70 flights leave daily to all parts of the world. Chief Mosher also mentioned the “point” system coming into use in some cities in the United States where a motorist is pen- alized according to the serious- ness of his act. For instance speeding on a slippery, icy road in winter will incur a heavier fine than speeding on a fair day with little traffic. In order to meet the anticipat- ed population growth it is de- sirable that more and more in- dustry be attracted to the vill- age, to keep residential taxes at a happy level. This year’s coun- cil has already been commended for keeping the mill-rate steady. in spite of rising costs. Industry does its part in providing that stability. Your Industrial Commission has many plans for the future which it is not free to divulge, but you may rest assured that each man on the committee is confident that Richmond Hill of~ fers fully serviced industrial land at the most reasonable rates in “the greater Metropolitan Tor~ onto area" and that this village is a going concern. Highlights of the election spee- ChES.at the Municipal Hall, Van- dorf following the results were more industry to ease the tax burden, piping water from Lake Simcoe, better roads, and more stability for the farmers. Chief R. C. Mosher did not feel the radar control would de- prive the ratepayers of complete and instant attention, He stated, "The cars are mobile no matter where they are and can leave immediately on a radio call. And we'll not be manning the radar control all the time, I feel that could constitute a nuisance. We are trying to educate the people, perhaps the hard way, by show- ing them their rate of speed at the time they are speeding. This should act as a deterrent to fur- ther speeding. We will use the radar control on township roads as well,” the chief maintained. Point System Several members of the Lake Wilcox Ratepayers' Association were active during election day and supplied a car pool to local voters. The voting was very light in Oak Ridges with only 14 votes being cast. A’break-down of the results follows: two men to operate at the great- est efficiency. There are three men on a shift, one operates the radio at the station. It is up to each of us, the In- dustrial Commission a¢vocates to individually and collectively climb on the band-wagon and bring increasing prosperity to our village â€"- through our own good neighbourliness. NEWMARKET : Katy Cooper, 78, a resident of Green Acres. the Metro home for the aged, who wandered away from the building early Tuesday evening was found, unharmed, after spen- ding all night in the fields south of the home. Mr. Wylie is a Public Ac- countant, a family man and a resident of the township for the Dagtr two years. Should all this make us smug? Decidedly not. But it should make us proud and humble champions of the heritage which lies with- in our boundaries, so that those who come here as strangers â€" will remain to become our friends â€" and our neighbours. Get On Band Wagon In 1872, when the village be- came incorporated, the popula- tion was 900. In 1956 it has reached the 6,000 mark, and it is expected there will be at least 10,000 residents in Richmond Hill by the year 1960. Three break-ins in Thorn- hill early in July have been attributed by Police Chief R. C. Mosher of Vaughan Township Police to a man who has been arrested in the meantime. However, due to lack of evidence the man has not been charged by the local police. Whoever ran- sacked the three homes ap- parently did not take any- thing. Among the ,three homes entered was that of Chairman of the Area School Board, W. A. Ladell, who re- sides on Arnold Ave. Break-ins In July Believed Solved 260 261 176 Robert Long, 22. of Jefferson. came within an inch of having the jugular vein severed early Monday when his head crashed through a windshield of a car which plowed into the rear of a TTC bus on Yonge St. at Steele’s Ave. Twenty-five stitches were required to close an ear-to-ear gash in his throat. Long was a passenger in a car driven by Fred Layton, 23, Oak Ridges Jeweller, who received face and head cuts. Both men were admitted to Northwestern Genâ€" eral' hospital. Layton is in satls- factory condition. but Long's con- dition is only fair, hospital offi- cials reported.
