'lm'ovim Council Meeting *- Council Hopes Start Soon Markham Rd. Storm Sewers Direct Levy Will Be For Half Cost Town Pay Balance Richmond Hill Town Council Monday night unani- mously passed the Construction by-law for installation of storm sewers on Markham Road and established a for payment of drainage proj attern ects which likely will e car- ried on in all sections of the municipality. The Markham Road storm sewer estimated to cost $218,000. will be paid for by a direct frontage levy on the properties served and by a levy over the whole municipal- ity. The engineer's recommendation of a frontage rate of $5.00 per foot on properties immediately abutting the work, and $2.00 per foot on properties receiving indirect enents was adopted, which means about a fifty-fifty baring of the cost by the area and the town as a whole. It is planned to proceed as uiokly as possible with the 'Iarkham Road project. and it is mperative that it be completed 11 time to enable the County to roceed with paving of the road ext year. The installation of term sewers will take about hree months, and it is hoped to tart by September 1st. If there hould be any delay in securing pproval of Water Resources ommission and the Ontario . iunicipal Board the work could n- undertaken in the winter as a vorks relief project and might e subject to government sub- ad that there must be no dis. crimination and that ratepayers in all parts of town must be treated on the same basis. The Markham Road project will include a storm sewer vary- ing in size from 30 inches at Bayvicw to 54 inches at Cedar Ave. The cost will be paid by issuing debentures over a 20 year period. It will serve most of Allancourt and a considerable area north and south of Mark- ham Road from Bayview to Church St. Councillor Haggart pointed out that there are other drainage ar- any problem concerning the town of Richmond Hill." said the May- or. “everyone has a common in- terest in progress". The motion by Doputy-reeve Tinker to praceed at once with the Markham Road storm sewer was carried with Councillor Has- gart voting against it. “I'm go- ing to oppose the motion.“ said Councillor Haggart. explaining that his reason for doing so was that he had opposed the appoint- ment of Proctor & Redfern as engineers for the proposed proâ€" ject. and to be consistent he could not vote for the adoption of the report. He expressed agâ€" reement with the payment for- mula recommended in the re- port. . Council adopted a recommend- ation of Proctor s. Redfern for acceptance of a tender for soil testing. Councillor Haggai-i ob- jected to the engineers opening the tenders. "All tenders should be scaled and opened by coun- cil," said Councillor Haggart. Councillor Bradstock contended the procedure followed by Mr. Redfern was accepted practice. Works Commissioner Whalen submitted estimates for several other works projects including the storm sewer on Crosby Ave. to cost. $52,200. of which the Liquor Control Board will pay $15.000. The paving of Indus- trial Road will cost $1]..985. of which $9,112. will be levied as local. improvement to the prop- erties served and $2,972. paid by the town. The cost of the Rum- ble Avenue sewer, also a local improvement will be 320.470. Council agreed to opening of Sneddon Road through the in- dustrial area from Markham Road to Beverley Acres. Deputy-reeve Tinker Works Committee Chairman comment- l l decided to call tenders for a new police cruiser to replace the 1058 model now in use. Cost of needed repairs has been estimat- ed at $530. so It was thought good business to consider pur- chase of a new vehicle, Reeve Perkins pointed out that no provision was made in the budget for such a purchase. “We might be penny-wise and pound foolish to spend the money on repairs". said Councillor Hall- gart. Councillor Ross said the car now has a mileage of 30.000 miles. Councillor Hngunri we call for tenders we don't have to buy a new car. but we will see what. we can do. Reeve Perkins â€"â€" l'll go along with that. Council concurred ln police committee reconnncndntion for an additional phone line for the police oii‘lcc. People have com- plained of receiving a busy sig- nal when calling the police. Parking Reeve Perkins. chairman of the oli-sireet parking committee got council support to offer $3,000. to George Elliott for a small parcel of land to facilitate opening a rear lane on the west side of Yonge St. The committee reported prog‘ ress in plans for a lane on the east side of Yongc Si. entering from Lorne Ave. ’ it was decided to call tenders for parking meters on the lot at Yonge and Richmond Sis. 0n the parking lot there will be spaces rented by the month for all-day parking. and parking meters will have a two hour limit. Mayor Tomlin pointed out that council was anxious to assist in maintaining the business assess- ment in the Yonge Street area by making ofi-street parking av- ailable. The parking committee recom- mended no aciion in regard to the request of Sam Sorbara for a lane from Duf’ierin Street to serve stores on the east side of Yonge St. it was reported that the lot at the corner of Yonge and Dufferin could be purchase for $35.000. ‘ if STOUFFVILLE : Tile 0.M.B. has given approval to a debenture oi $50000 for the Stouiiville Public Utilities ‘Commission.

Mayor Tomlin said in the Bev- erley Acres drain project there might be government subsidies on a part of the work such as bridges and this might reduce the total cost considerably.

Last Sunday morning Mr. Ed. gar Fuller left his home on the east side of the road. at Button- ville and pulled into the south lane of traffic. He was rammed from behind by a second sauth~ bound car. and although he es- caped with a shaking-up his car was so badly damaged it is doubtful if it can be repaired. Before one o'clock a second ac- cident near the Markham Sand & Gravel works damaged three cars, one very badly, in a rear- end collision as cars slowred for the. light at Number 7 Highway. “21.

Ambulance Service Mayor Tomlin reported that the town solicitor has advised the municipality has not the le- gal right to subsidize an ambul- ance service. Recently the am- bulance operator advised coun- cil the local service would be dis- continued and suggested it might be continued if a municipal sub- sidy could be arranged. Lot Size David Thomas was granted permission‘ to divide a lot at the south east corner of Church and Centre East to provide one lot 45 feet in width. five feet short of the minimum requirement for the area. It was stated that Mr. Thomas was very co-operative with council in improving the corner at Church and Centre. "We're just reciprocating." said Reeve Perkins. Public Crossing A letter from the Transport Board advised that it would rec- ommend Crosby Avenue as a pub- lic railway crossing. The town must pay for improvement of crossing, but will be assessed on- ly 12 per cent of the maintenâ€" ance of crossing signals. Council felt the settlement was fair. Nursery School Council accepted the advice of the solicitor and refused the ap- plication for establishing a nur- sery school at 273 Richmond St. Councillor Ross voted against the motion to refuse the application.
