Toronto DISCOUNT In his presentation, Mr. Ralph said St. George Developments own 207 lots in the area. He question- ed if a six inch main would be adequate to serve the area of the subdivision east of the railway tracks. Mr. Jorgensen‘ replied that the pressure at‘the east end of Thornheights Drive checked out at 90 to 95 pounds pressure. Mr. Ralph based his main argu- ment on the fact although his client is paying the area water charge the eastern portion of his subdivision will not be served by' water. Both Reeve Clark and Councillor J. MacNell, Chairman of the Water Committee stated the eventual extension of the wa- ter main up Bayview Avenue to meet the main on No. 7 Highway will depend on consumer demand and the availability of funds to cover the cost of financing. Doesn’t Guarantee Automatic Service In listing the board’s reasons for approving the application, Commissioner R. C. Rowland sta- ted the establishment of a water_ Reeve Clark said the water sys- tem has been extended by public demand. Local improvements were instituted by the township. Township Engineer E. Jorgensen stated the Green Lane extension will serve the Beamish Construc- tion Co. and Shouldice Surgery, while the short extension north of No. 7 Highway will serve the Thornlea Public School. Reeve W. L. Clark traced the history of the development of the municipal water system for the area south of No. 7 Highway in the first concession back to April 1949. In that year North Yogk Township and Markham sign d ‘an agreement in which North ‘York agreed to supply the High- land Park Subdivision with mun- icipal water. As North York’s sup- ply was limited it was unable to acquiesce to a request from Markham to make water available to Doncaster and Thornhill. In October 1954 council set up Wa- ter Area No. 1 which embraced‘ the area lying between No. 7* Highway and Steeles Avenue and between Yonge Street and Bay- view‘ Avenue. A $10,000 deben- ture issue was charged to the area to cover the cost of exploring for water. In November 1957 North York reversed its earlier decision and agreed to supply Doncaster with water. A municipal water system was installed in the area at a total cost of $125,500.00. Frontal charges were assessed against the Doncaster properties while the balance of the total cost was charged against the area. At this same time the O.W.R.C.- approved development of the township Wells and the laying of trunk mains at a total cost of $507,000.00. The $139,958.00 in~ ternal system is being handled on a local improvement basis. ffdm The only objections to the work were filed by St. George Devel- opments Ltd., owners of the Sel- kirk Subdivision, the eastern part of which faces on Bayview Ave. The Selkirk interests were rep- resented by Solicitor B. Ralph of Thornhill. Solicitor J. D. Lucas represented Markham at the hear- ing. Traces History ’ ' The Ontario Municipal Board at a public hearing held Thursday of last week at Buttonville approved the further extension of three sections of the 12-inch Bayview Avenue water main. It was approved from Steeles Avenue to John Street, from Green Lane to the railway tracks and north of N o. 7 Highway to the Thornlea Public School. The work will cost $84.100.00 and will be debentured over 20 years. This final approval means this important section of Water Area No. 1 will now extend up Bayview Avenue from Steeles Avenue to the railway tracks. In addition the board approved the construction of a main on Thornlea Road £u__- h," - “w--. v.; ‘JAvauL/a xuuau from Bayview Avenue to; 15in}; 583 feet east. This work will cost $2,800.00. ~ The girls had been commission- ed by the Richmond Heights Plaza to appear during the celebrations. A Great Success “The Liberal" is informed that the Anniverrsary was a great suc- cess and he merchants wish to thank the public for their gener- ous turn-out and support. Many on the plaza last week-end during the celehration on the plaza’s first Anniversary added a welcome spice of interest and 'color. Approves Extension Bayview Water Main Most of all, the girls themselves are to be congratulated upon the spirit of public interest which prompts them to train hard and work hard in this manner. Girls Have Won Prizes The police exist mainly to pre- serve law and order but there are obviously lots of other things they do very well indeed and one of their greatest achievements is that they have built up a team of girls known as the “Major- ettes" who have already in a very short time, won prizes tor their excellence. Their presence‘ Municipal Board The girls give their time on a voluntary basis as do the police officers who train them. Police Constable Sider is in charge of the»group which is a great credit to him personally and to the force of which he is a member. The ‘Majorettes” are a body of young girls who train hard under the supervision of the Richmond Hill police. In a very smart uniform they make an attractive picture, both individually and collectively. For one hour on Friday and for an hour and a half on Saturday they entertained the public with a smart display of formation marching and dancing, etc. RICHMOND HILL COULD WITH JUSTICE FEEL PROUD OF ITS POLICE FORCE. one of the finest in the country, last weekend when the ‘Majorettes” performed on Richmond Heights Plaza for the entertainment of the publiieiby arrangement with the merchants on the Plaza.

His post graduate work in piano was with Ernest Hutcheson in New York and Isador Phillip in Paris. His pupils have appeared in recital at the Conservatory at the Eaton Auditorium. Opens Studio Richmond Hill 'area doesn’t guarantee automatic service. He suggested the subdiv- ider may have been premature in registering his lots before ser. vices were available. In that way the land could still be assessed as agricultural. Mr. Rowland stat- ed council has publicly stated it has only one set policy for the extension of water. There is no evidence council ever refused anyone any water where it could be sold economically. In conclus- ion Mr. Rowland stated the board has no power to force a munici- pality to extend its water system. He felt sure Markham would be glad to extend its facilities when- ever conditions so warranted.
