L'ommg Events c1w11 ,A detailed plan for the de- velopment and beautification of the Richmond Hill waterworks pond on Mill Street. which will make it one of the choice beauty spots of the Metropolitan Area, was presented Monday night to Richmond Hill Town Council by Chairman Charles Sauriol of the Metrpolitan Conservation Advis- ory Committee. 30,000 Estimated Cost Propose Park Development Project To Transform Pond To Beauty Spot Assurance was given that the project would be started early next year and the estimated cost is $30,000 of which the Province of Ontario will contribute fifty per cent. The remaining $15,000 will be the responsibility of Richmond Hill as will the ex- pense of maintenance and up‘ keep. Although giving no official ap- proval of the project individual members expressed opinions fav- orable to it. Deputy-reeve D. L. Plaxton, chairman of the local Parks Commission will discuss the.proposal with several local groups and report back ‘to coun- cil when a formal decision will be given to the Conservation or- ganization. The area to be developed in- cludes 3.2 acres south of Mill Street, which is well wooded with a good variety of trees many of which are part of a planting project, and traversed by the stream is considered very suitable for park development. North of Mill Street and east of the pond is an area of .8 acres considered a good picnic site. VOLUME LXXX, NUMBER 11 Another area to be developed is a strip 75 feet wide to be ac- quired from six property owners bordering the east side of the pond. North of the pond is an- other 5.4 acres, heavily wooded, with a large swampy portion which will cleanup. Outside the town there is an area which should be considered Robert B. Slaven, 37 Gordon Rd., York Mills. advised Whit- church Township Council on Thursday that he was about to purchase Lots No. 69 and 70, consisting of 1190 acres, and re- questeq for its use as a sports centre. Plan Large Sports Centre For Whitchurch He proposed to place on the property. parking for 1.000 cars; golf course. a driving range and swimming pool. Some of these would be prepared and ready for the season of 1959. but the entire program would take three years to complete, Council advised that they had no objection to the proposed use 0: the property. Charles Dennie attended coun- cil and reported the loss 'of three sheep killed by dogs, and injury to two others. He did not known the owner of the dogs but had endeavored to trace him. He was allowed the amount of $65. for his loss. Mr. Dennie stated that a flock of sheep which was being wor- ried by dogs did not do well and the monetary amount would not cover the depreciation . in his flock. Council passed ,3 by-law for an additional $30,000 to be spent on roads and culverts. The by-law was forwarded to the Department of Highways for approval. As some $24,000 of the amount will be spent in paving the roads running from Yonge Street and around Wilcox Lake, it is likely it will be approved in view of the Department being ve-y fav- orable to permanent surface on roads. ‘ Road Superintendent Davis presented council with a list of a '0unts totalling $11,131.51 Avhich included the pay-sheet. The largest item Kvas for gra- vel and stone purchased from F. H. Roberts and 8011‘ for $6,470.47. General account placed for payment by the Clerk before council totalled $2,175.31 which included the payment for mile- age of different officers for tra- velling expenses. The amount ‘spent on relief continues to be a large item. The amount for the month of August was $1,473.94 with the senior governments bearing 80% end the township paying anly 20 I“; of this total. Messrs. H. A. Bobcock and Eequire cbhsiaerable Richmond Hill Pond, Site of Proposed Park Development in the overall plan. Two acres in town belong to the Polish Camp and have been designated as a parkland. The land to the north is heavily wooded, with springs rising on it. The proposed plan involves assembling the land in the pond area owned by the town and by private owners. It is proposed the town turn over its land to the authority and that a 75 foot strip be purchased from each of the six property owners on the east side of the pond. It is further recommended that the remaining land be zoned as greenbelt where it lies within the town and that it be turned over to the munici- pality as the 5 per cent require- ment at the time of sub-division. As an initial step it is pro- posed the pond be drained and cleaned. Tests made in the pond indicate that it is suitable for bass in limited numbers the year round and for-trout in the spring. These can be supplied by the authority. To complete the fish- ing program fishing docks will be constructed at suitable loca- tions on the pond. It is consider- ed the pond frontage on Mill Street is dangerous for pedes- trians and a stone fence should be erected. 'Plans provide for picnic tables, two washrooms of block and stone construction with running water and sewer connections. Paved parking areas also are provided for in the plan. 7 It is estimated the initial de- velopment will cost $30,000 in- cluding the necessary land pur~ chases. Deputy-reeve Plaxton said $15,- 000 is a large expenditure for Richmond Hill. “However,” he added “if we do not avail our- selves of the facilities and co- operation of the ConserVation Authority we may face the deâ€" velopment at our own cost some Coy, who are the engineers for the Township, advised that they had called for tenders on con- crete culverts on the 5th conces- sion to be known as project No. 2088. Tenders are to close at- 5 p.111. on Thursday, Sept. 18th. This work will absorb the bal- ance of the $6,000 requested in the additional $30,000 by-law.

Mr. Sauriol said he was very familiar with the area over many years and is convinced it has a fine potential for park develop- ment. He said it was now partly used as a dump, unkept and un- sightly, and could be made a very beautiful place. The Conserva- tion organization is willing to go all out in the development pro- gram and he was sure when completed it would be a source of pride for all citizens of Rich- mond Hill. He pointed out that property owners who provided the needed land on the east side of the pond would be adding greatly to the value of their own properties. “I just wish I owned a home on that pond,” he said. “That makes five of us" added Councillor Paterson. “You have the makings of one of the best beauty spots in the whole Metropolitan Area." said Mr. Sauriol “and it would be a shame to let it go the way it is.” Councillor Haggart said he was really gratified with the plan. It is something I have advocated for a long time he said. Mayor Tomlin said he was a member of the Planning Board when initial plans were drafted for park development in‘ the whole area extending north as far as the “El'gln sideroad.’ ’“’ Councillor Tinker wondered how much the pond area is now used for recreational purposes. “Old residents tell me,” he said “that it is not used as much now as years ago." It was pointed out that the pond was used extensively last winter for skating. Councillor Joseph Paterson praised the proposal. “1 think we would be doing a great injustice to the town if we'did not avail ourselves of this opportunity,” he said.

S. Elson informed the York Central District High School Board at itsregular monthly meeting last Monday night. The high school board will be represented by Trustees John Honsberger and Eric Axel- son. In a session dealing almost strictly with the opening of the three district high schools for the fall terrpl the board authorized the three principals 'to “set up a night school starting October 1, at all three schools” and went on record stating it would abide by the Department of Edu- cation ruling on transportation and “will not transport children who live within two miles of any high school on easily travelled roads.” Referring to so called “loafers” or seven year pupils, it decided such pupils be reviewed and interviewed by their principals and referred to the board for disposal. Richmond Hill High School On request of the board Prin- cipal Wright Morrow reported Richmond Hill High School has enrolled 665 students for. its 23 classrooms, Grade 9 alone re- quiring 8 classes, three more rooms than were required in 1957 when the attendance stood at 521. ‘Grade 10 with a total of 161 students has five rooms in use; Grade 11. 104 pupils, 4 rooms; Grade 12, 91 pupils, 3 rooms. Grade 13 with 41 students has two rooms in use this year. Woodbridge High School demand and the board authoriz- ed the necessary expenditure for these articles. Principal Elson recommended the renting of six sewing machines for one year and this also was approved. Building Committee Substituting for Trustee John Howes, chairman of the building committee, Business Administra- tor J.

This was welcome news for the board which had “I’ni glad you’re back,” commented the Deputy-reeve. Mayor Ken W. Tomlin who returned from his holiday in time to preside at Mon- day night's Richmond Hill Town Council meeting ex- tended his thanks and com- pliments to Deputy-reeve Donald L. Plaxton who was Acting Mayor in his absence from town. “You did a real good job." said the Mayor. Mayor Tomlin especially complimented the Deputy- reeve on his reply to Warden Armstrong’s references to Richmond Hill’s wild state- ments. “1 think you handled the matter exceedingly well," ,said the Mayor, “if I had been here I might have said more.” I - Principal Lloyd Morrison of the new Woodbridge high school said there are 210 students at- tending there with eight class- rooms in use. Four rooms are required for the 107 Grade 9 students enrolled; two rooms for Grade 10; and one each for Grade 11, with ‘26, and Grade 12 with 23 students. Grade 13 attends Thornhill High School. Mr. Morrison noted that it is expect- ed the school will be finished September 19. Thornhill High School? A boy approaching the home of Mr. Garnet Taylor R.R. 2, Maple. in his car last week end. was suddenly jumped by a rabid fox that tried tochew the tires of the car. After a while it ran off. Vaughan Township Police were informed, and a search made, but no sign of the fox could be seen. Enrollment at Thornhill High School was down approximately 100 from the 1957 fall enroll- ment, with the opening of Woodâ€" bridge High School this Septem- bar. Principal A. S. Elson said Thornhill's enrollment stands at 672 as of Monday night. Grade 9 has 246 students; Grade 10, 181; Grade 11, 123; Grade 12, 89 and Grade 13. 33 students.

This was welcome news for the board which had previously stated it would allow up to $7,000.00 for the necessary work. ‘ Concrete steps, walk and catch basin surrounding the 1958 ad- dition to Richmond Hill High School will cost $691.00, while a new ceiling and re-wiring job necessary in the school’s boiler room will cost in the neighbour- hood of $1,500.00, Mr. Ashworth informed the board. Earlier in the year it was thought that a plasterer co 1d repair the ceiling for $700.00 ut the old one was sagging so badly and pipes and wiring needed to be refastened and new wires laid and the plas- terer advised a complete new ceiling would be necessary.‘The board approved the above ex- penditures. High School Entrance Trustees Axelson and Hons- berger moved and seconded a petition from the Lindsay Board of Education in which they asked York Central to join them in re- questing entrance examinations be revived. The Lindsay board stated, “Secondary schools are overcrowded with Grade 9 pu- pils", some of whom apparently are not ready for Grade 10 work. It further stated all Grade 8 pupils do not have the same standard on' leaving public schools. Trustee Stewart Rumble did not agree with the motion which the rest (If the board members approved and Principals Elson and Morrow said there is too much academic work â€" marking papers was expensive.

The new official will direct and co-ordinate the activ- ities of the Roads Department, the Waterworks, the Sew- ers, Parks and the Building Department, and will be paid at the rate of $866.00 per month, plus expenses. » Councillor Joseph Paterson re- porting for the personnel com- mittee said at a meeting this week a decision was made that an en- gineer should be engaged. Three applicants for the position will be interviewed if they are still available and the position will be re-advertised. In the meantime until a selection can be made he said Proctor 8: Redfern consult- ing engineers for the town had agreed to loan a member of their staff as a resident engineer. The move was opposed vigor- ously by Deputy-reeve Donald Plaxton who said it is “just a waste of money." All other mem- bers of council voted for the ap- pointment. “I don’t see how you can jus- tify an expenditure of that kind of money. I just can’t go along with it,” said Deputy-reeve Plaxâ€" ton nun.

Reeve W. L. Clark reported at Monday’s meeting that both Metro and the provin- cial government have delayed decision on the proposed amend- ments without giving council any specific reason for the delay. Both the Departments of Plan- ning and Development and High- ways have asked Markham not to press for a decision uhtil the new year. Unofficial reports claim that contemplated major highway and railway construction is the cause of the delay. The proposed amendments include changes in the industrial area and the type of commercial development to be allowed along Yonge Street. Swimming Pools Council has agreed unanim- ously not to pass its proposed new bylaw requiring the erec- tion of four-foot chain link fen- ces around all private swimming pools in the municipality.

He said the matter had gone beyond the scope of what he had in mind. “A man who will spend 90 per cent of his time not in the field, is not good. We’re creating another position, a man who .will have an office and secretary in the town hall. Engineers usually gravitate to the shedding of rubber boots and the wearing of Sunday clothes,” said Councillor Tinker. Councillor Paterson â€"- “Our worst sin in municipal adminis- tration in Richmond H11 to date has been lack of co-ordination.” Councillor Tinker finally voted for the motion observing that council members would be in I better position to judge the use- fulness of the office after a trial period with the temporary ap- pointment. Mayor Ken Tomlin reviewed the experience of council with various projects and agreed some direction of co-ordinated effort in the different departments is necessary. Councillor Paterson pointed out that the appointment might not necessarily go to a fully qualified engineer. He said a good man with the necessary qualifications and field experience might fill the need. He may be designated as works superintendent or some such title rather than town engi- 'neer. tlement.
