Director Of Welfare Advises Building New Home For County Aged The commissiOn had delivered most of its report, when county council member, Mrs. Caroline Ion, rose to ask why the York Manor budget was not itemized and the cost of each item shown on the report. when other commit. tees supplied such details. Reeve Fred Armstrong. former chairman of the commission and this year one of the dir- ectors for the Home, said, “That's the way it has always been.” Difficulty in ascertaining whether the budget would be large enough to include repairs and additions to the heating system. which has been publicized through press and radio since the January session of council, brought the request that the committee “rise and Sit again” on this matter at a later date, before council determines if it will approve the budget. (a) The oil burner boiler capac- ity is adequate to maintain the heat in the building. but has no reserve (in extremely cold or win- dy weather). (b) Oil firing the third boiler would provide adequate reserve capacity and emergency stand-by. Deputy-reeve S. Tinker of Rich- mond Hill rose to ask that clause 7 and clause 8 of the report, per- taining to the farm budget of $18,000 and a requested, but un- disclosed wage scale for both the workers at York Manor and the farm â€" be included in the break- down. (c) The present controls for the burners are independent and should be interconnected for pro- per_operation. It was following this report the request came for a $70,000 budget and Mrs. Ion asked for an itemiz- ed account. (d) In general, the radiation is adequate bxt certain areas (the first floor lounge for example) require additional units. (e) W1 ‘19 no attempt was made to check the circulation of the system, it was noted that most ra- diators were heating, indicating that water circulation was satis- lactory. Mr. Armstrong withdrew from the committee and stalked back to his desk to protest having to compile such a report in four dayr time. He said it would be impossible to get figures for a heating system by then and re- quested two weeks’ time. Ward- en Hodgson remained obdurate however, and Reeve Perry stood Warden Hodgson Rules York Manor Budget To Include Heating Cost Propose $70,000 Budget 5“ Richvale Ornamental Iron Works For Stair & Porch Ram.

The W .rden said. "I think it woulr‘ take the whole $70 thous- and of the budget and then you wouldn't have the building warm." Reeve. R. J. Pollock said. "If the heating isn't included in the budget, let us have the informa- tion about the cost. I think the members of county council are entitled to that.“ Approx e Recommendations Council approved the recom- mendation that $2.610 be spent on improvements itemized under Clause 1 of the report. such as a clothes dryer for $500. Reeve County council members were regretful of the publicity aboht conditions at the home. Reeve William Clark of Markham said, “As chairman of the finance com- mittee and having been chairman of the Home two years ago. I was very much concerned with the ad- verse publicity. I think it is not right that fear should be thrust into the minds of the occupants and the relatives." The reeve was referring d0‘ btless to reports of the Fire Marshall which were disclosed at the January session. “There isn’t any doubt in my mind," Reeve Clark continued. “but that the Home has got to be used for one more winter at least â€"- and county council should take every step to see that such a sit- uation does not take place again." Advised Building 10 Years Ago Mr. L. E. Ludiow, Director of the Old Age Branch. Department of Welfare for the Province of Ontario was introduced to coun- cil members by the chairman and in his opening remarks on York Manor said. “I attended a meet- ing of the Manor committee ten years ago and presented a pro- gram for caring for the aged. 1 said then more additional facilit- ies were needed." Mr. Ludlow pointed out the building was erec- ted in the 1800's and two wings were added. one in 1897. the other in 19177 . . . but nothing has been done since. although a new wing was proposed in 1949 and a comâ€" mittee was appointed to investi~ gate a three-year building pro- gram. The speaker said he would like to see county council proceed with the building of a new home. The present York Manor. he said. is not fire proof and could not measure up to requirements. even minimum requirements of the Ontario Fire Marshall. The Home does not have enough accommo- dation now. and certainly will not have enough for the future, since it is anticipated the population will double itself by 1976 â€" and men and women have a longer life-expectancy, and a need for adequate and comfortable housâ€" ing in their old age. C F. Davis. chairman of the commission said previously the washing done in the Home was carried up severals flight of stairs to the attic, where laundry was dried during the winter months. Other items include 24 new table top: for the dining room. uphol- stering of 12 arm chairs and four couches: sitting rooms and staff bedrooms to be painted pnd kit- chen equipment. medical supplies and 36' new pillows. "You have the site. the grounds and many current assets, which would seem to put you well an the way to your objective." He concluded with the promise. “If you do decide to build a new Home. we will do everything we can to assist you.“ WILLOWDALE : Metro Planning Director M. Jones said suburban dwellers want two incompatible things â€"- private home areas and fast travel â€" and when they can't get them they beat the planners over the head.
