MARSHALL MCMURCHY, J. M. MCDVONALD, For sand or gravel or shale APPOINTMENT FOR HEARING DATED at Toronto this 16th day of October, IN THE MATTER OF an application of the Corporation of the Township of Vaughan for approval of its Restricted Area By-laws Numbers 2038 as amended by 2062 and 2062 entitled “A By-law to restrict the use of lands in the Township of Vaughan” and “A By-law to amend Byâ€"law Number 2038.” IN THE MATTER OF Section 390 of “The Municipal Act” (R.S.O. 1950, Chapter 243), P.F.M. 5259-56 THE ONTARIO MUNICIPAL BOARD Reeve Clerk O. R. CHAPMAN â€"andâ€" Secretary A letter was read from Trustee Stewart Rumble outlining his reasons for differing with a ma- jority decision of the Richmond Hill District High School Board on school construction policy of the Provincial Government con- sidering it advisable to equip all new’schools with gyms, shops, cafeterias. etc., but not including them in its grant structure. As it is, a municipality which wants these extras, has to increase its proportionate share of the cost beyond reasonable bounds. For example, instead of the 35% the municipality would pay if it stay- ed within the Provincial grants, it could, if it wanted extras, find itself paying 47% of the total, or $485,000, in the case of the Thornhill High School, stated Mr. Rumble. Mr. Rumble is an appointee of Markham on the High School Board. Council resolved to hold nom- inations this year on Friday ev- ening, November 22, at the Mun- icipal Chambers and elections on December 2. BRADFORD : The Businessmen’s Association is planning to present a slate of candidates for council. Letters were read from Mr. Albert Reesor tendering his res- ignation from the Court of Re- vision and from Unionville Rate- payers advising that improve- ments to the local skating rink would not be economical this year. Council decided to appoint Mr. C. J. Russell, now a resident of Unionville, to replace Mr. Reesor. Stay Within Provincial Grants §UTTON_: The gillage’s popula- tion has increased 10'per ‘ceht to 1300. A delegation consisting of Messrs. Morley, Symes and Young from Lee Avenue, waited on council in connection with having their street improved this fall. A majority of the residents on the street have come to an agreement among themselves concerning the raising of the necessary money, and it was decided to order the work done, after obtaining legal advice as to the quickest legal method of collecting the money. , Five tenders were opened for the work of paving Kennedy Rd. Prices given varied within a range of $6,500 and after lengthy consideration it was decided to award the contract to Miller Paving Ltd., low bidder at $37,- 500, who, council was informed, were in the best position to make an, early start on the work. A By-law was passed to author- ize the local improvement of the water supply in the Doncaster Area, and on a motion by Coun- cillor D. Deacon seconded .by Deputy-Reeve W. Clark, it was resolved to authorize the calling of tenders. A letter was read from the Doncaster Ratepayers enquiring as to what their position legally is. in view of the discovery that a number of houses are fronting on streets whose deeds have never been conveyed to the Township. It was the opinion of council that no difficulty could be encounter- ed, as the right of way had been established, but that steps would be taken to have the situation corrected. ties took advantage of it in order to save on Police costs. ZONumbers Called The engineer was of the opinâ€" ion the water area rate of three mills would be charged and $200 for connection. Outside of that “it was their good fortune." . “I think we need to know def- initely our policy in regard to perimeter water users. I think they should pay frontage tax," insisted Councillor Kirk. The road superintendent, Nel- son Kerr, told the Council he had been informed the Toronto and York Roads Commission was in- tending to take over the mile and a quarter between Steeles Ave. and No. 7 Highway right away. The Department of’Iâ€"Iighways has already approved the County taking over this part of Keele St., making it a suburban road, as of the first of January. Mr. Kerr said he intended leveling the road again in the next day or two as he had received complaints be- cause of its roughness. Councillor Kirk brought up the matter of perimeter water mains in subdivisions. He wondered what the Council policy will be as regards houses bordering on subdivisions whose owners desire to hook onto the mains establish- ed by the subdivider. Mr. Kirk wondered if they should be treat- ed as original applicants and charged frontage fees. While the Public Utilities Act was mentioned as the authority for leveling charges, no further Councillor Kirk also asked that the subdivider be reminded of an agreement whereby water from the Uplands Well can only be used for building purposes. When a house is completed, the water system must come under juris- diction of the township and com- ply with requirements laid down by the County Health unit. The subdivider or the owner, must also pay the water rate of $3.00 per month. Estimate and Tender Prices Out of Line Reeve Marshall McMurchy commented, “Estimates seem to bear no comparison to costs late- ly. Education costs are one ex- ample of this today. It looks like next year’s Council will have to budget to 15% for continginces alone.” The consulting engineers for the subdivision had been inform- ed three weeks before of the im- pending inspection, and were adâ€" vised to complete underground services in a manner acceptable to the township. According to the report from the township engi- neer, “to our knowledge no work was done to correct the condi- tions,” the Council deemed it necessary to bring pressure to bear. Using Water from Uplands Well Three tender prices on a Bath- urst St. culvert were so out of line with the estimated price. the engineer was ordered to draw up another estimate and decide whether it would be feasible for th township to undertake the work through its own staff. The tenders in consequence were re- jected. Cognty to take over part of road Perimeter Watermains While water was available at all hydrants tested, only five of the 22 hydrants were in good working order, aecordingl to the report. Of 37 valves on the water- mains 18 were inoperable and three were not found. The storm sewers were not in a condition to pass the inspection either. Many of the manholes are par- tially filled with gravel. On being asked by Councillor Reid if he felt there was any danger of the sewers filling in again if they were cleaned out properly, Mr. Hopper answered, “Not unless hit by a builder or some such unforeseeable acci- dent” Had Been Infprmed of Inspection- Council on motion of Councillor Robert Kirk, seconded by Coun- cillor James Reid will have Mr. Hopper inform the subdivider he must have the underground serv- ices (storm sewers and water mains) in the subdivision up to the standard acceptable to the township within seven days or the township will hire someone else to do the work at the sub- divider‘s expense. If the work is not completed building permits in the subdivision will be held up. Representative of the engineer- ing firm of Duncan-Hopper and Associates, Keith Hopper, was in attendance and presented an in- spection report on the Uplands Gardens Subdivision. As a result of this inspection, carried out by the staff of the engineering firm aided by members of the Town- s_hip Waterworks Department, the Vaughan Township Council had a busy Monday morning session with a number of delegations in attendance. They also met again in the afternoon. Engineer Present Uplands Gardenslmprovements Must Be Made In Seven Days Vaughan Township Council The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation this week an- nounced approval of the ap- plication of Mr. John Gra- ham and Mr. Stewart Cox- ford for a license to operate a radio broadcasting station at Richmond Hill. At the same time the CBC announ- ced refusal to grant two ap- plications for similar licenses in Newmarket. Richmond Hill will be a daytime 500 watt station and will be located at 1300 on the dial. Richmond Hill Radio Station In the testimony by both the parents. Ronald Slighte and Les- lie Ball, they told the court they had. no knowledge of the couple since early September. Mr. Slighte said that he knew his daughter was living in the dis- trict, but he did not know exactly where. Mr. Ball said that he had only seen his son on a few occasions on the street since early Arnold ‘Jensen of Mill Road said that when he called at the house about 8 pm. to visit the couple he found no one home but he stated that everything appear- ed in order. Raymond Stunden. at whose home the couple had visited the night of the me, said that he and his wife had driven them'to 48 Edgar Ave. just after midnight. In reply to the Crown Attorney’s question, Mr. Stun- den emphatically stated that no intoxicating drinks had been con- sumed during the entire evening. Fire,Marshall Inspector Of considerable significance was the testimony of Inspector Lionel Bishop of the Ontario Fire Marshall’s office. Referring to ex- hibits of photographs, he said that his investigation had reveal- ed holes burned through the wall and floor around the stove. He said there was evidence of debris being piled in a 17-inch space be- tween the stove and the wall. Other testimony revealed that wood and paper were kept in this space. Inspector Bishop said he was convinced that the fire had started in this debris which was exposed to the heat of the stove. He said that it was definitely not an overheated stove and said that evidence counteracted the sug- gestion of foul play. He said that he felt that the fire was started by carelessness and suggested that neither of the victims was too familiar with the operation of a stove. He pointed out that the stove was too close to the wall and said that there should have been a proper brick chim- ney erected. He said that there would be sufficient heat from the stove to ignite the combustible material. Parents Testify Septemberl Mrs. Facer said she had no knowledge of the type of heating as the stove belonged to the ten- ants. She said that there was no chimney but there was a stove- pipe collar cemented in the wall. Fine Chief’s Testimony Chief Alf Stong of the Rich- mond Hill Fire Department which extinguished the blaze said that the brigade arrived within 8 to 9 minutes after receiving the call. He said that the flames were so hot that it was impossible to get within 10 feet of the building un- til a spray nozzle was used to cool the building down. Chief Stong said that only after they were able to get to one of the windows did they see the man‘s body. The girl’s body was not dis- covered until they entered the building. He told the court that the stove which had no damper in the pipe was well filled with coal and stated that the fire ap- peared to have started around this stove. He added that the lining of the building was an inflammable type wallboard. The Council discussed the prob- lem at length but cited the town- ship was legally entitled to the maximum original road allowance of 66 feet even though a private fence had been erected on it for a number of years. Councillor Kirk pointed out the ratepayers were free to bring action against the township but the township felt they were legally in the clear and were prepared to start im- mediately on the Carrville Road project. As work had already been delayed and the contractor wanted to get started before bad weather set in. (Continued from page 1) mained in the house. Mr. Geo. Gibson and Mr.. Or- ville Grainger appeared before the Council to register their com- plaint regarding the widening of Carrville Road. Straightening it will, they claim, put houses in which they are interested within a few feet of the road. The Council alloted the engi- neer $500.00 more (in addition to $1,000.00 already granted) to complete concrete bench markers between Richmond Hill. Maple, and Thornhill in preparation for survey work to be carried out later by Consumers Gas Company to establish gas mains. Delegations Mr. Robert McKerrol of Klein- burg met with the Council to present his reasons for asking the Township to let him have an un- used road allowance adjoining his property near the ninth con- cession. He also complained of a gravel company having scales on the township road allowance and creating a traffic hazard near his farm. The Council did not feel they could grant his request for the old road but will look into the matter of the scales being on public property. Inquest Finding As the Cockburn bridge ap- proaches have not been com- pleted, after the bridge itself was completed last spring. the Council will inform the ’contractor that if the work is not started by No- vember second, someone else will be engaged to do it. Bench Markers action was taken in regard to perimeter watermains. Cockbum Bridge THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario. Thursday, Nov‘ Councillor Donald Plaxton who attended a joint meeting of the High School Board and the mem- ber municipalities last week dis- agreed with Trustee Rumble‘s contention that the fact that the Department of Education refused grans on gymnasiums to mean that they didn’t want them. “Ac- tually they tell boards that they should build these extra", said lCouncillor Plaxton. Mr. Tomlin pointed out that if there were grants on all phases of construction there would not be the complaint. Councillor Plaxton added that it was ridicu- lous for the Department to refuse grants on washrooms and corri- dors. Approve Debenture Following the discussion a motion was approved to sanction the $700,000 Woodbridge deben- ture along with the $425,000 Richmond Hill issue. Councillor Floyd Perkins then moved that a letter protesting the grant struc- a board to get draft plans and an estimate ready for approval. After approval they are sent to the municipalities for financial assurance then permission is giv- en for the preparation of proper working drawings. But there is a great difference in costs between draft plans and working draw- ings." He said that at the meeting there was strong criticism of Richmond Hill’s subdivision poli- cy but Deputy Reeve Ken Tomlin who was in the chair said that Richmond Hill was paying its percentage share in education costs. Debentures Approved High SchOol Trustee Says "Build Within Grants" In a letter to Richmond Hill Council, read last Monday night, Trustee Stewart Rumble of the Richmond Hill Dis- trict High School Board presented what he termed the “other side of the construction story,” regarding new high schools. In the letter, Trustee Rumble was critical of the High School Board’s policy in spending so much more on schools than the amount of the Department of Education grants : i all“ ~ lm Mr. Rumble urged that the municipalities should see that the School Board “builds within the present grant structure or as close to it as possible.” He recommended that the onus should be placed on the provincial govern- ment for the construction of gymnasiums and cafeterias, etc. He called for a lowering of the burden on the tax- payers. ‘v Mr. Plaxtoxi was critical of the government system on school estimate; Hg sglid__“fix_-st they tell Richmond Hill AV. 5-1105 Toronto’s Oldest Suburban Ford Dealer RD.

Council assured Chairman W. R. Dean of the High School Board that Richmond Hill would co- sponsor a resolution in County Council for the issuance of the debenture issue. Seek More Room Mr. Tomlin backed by other members of council said that they would resist any move to take the room from the council again. Councillor Harold Jones pointed out that with work starting on the addition to the municipal hall there wouldn’t be a safe place for the children to play. It was also pointed out that village employ- ees use the room during the day. Mr. Tinker said that the only other possibility was the suspen- sion of the kindergartens for the present. Chairman Stanley Tinker of the Richmond Hill Public School Board met with Council to dis- cuss the ‘matter of the return of the council chambers to the school board for use as a class room. Mr. Tinker said that the Board could rent a store in the new Beverley Acres Shopping centre for a few months as a tem- porary classroom to take juniors from the development. He said that it would still be necessary to have the council room. 'ember 1, 1956 3 TU. 4-161
