He believes that members of Council should be continually conscious of the need of preserving the small town at- mosphere in the face of the de- mands of. suburban expansion. Having had considerable exper- ience in selling municipal deben- tures he realizes the importance to a community of good manage- ment. His platform includes (1) Improved community service, pos- sibly making use of railway fac- ilities. (2) Strict enforcement of zoning bylaws. (3) Expansion of town limits to provide for growth without congestion and to make available sufficient land to at- tract sizable industry. (4) Greater publicity to activities of appoint- ed boards and commissions. NOVEMBER 25 â€" Jaycees Christmas Auction on Radio CJRH 1310, Wednesday evening.

During the same dollar days all the participating stores exchang- ed items of stock between them- selves and placed these items in their windows. Thus there was one item in each store window which normally would not be there. Readers of “The Liberal" had been invited to study all the store windows and to list the items they thought should NOT be in the window.

On Sunday next the Town of Richmond Hill will in the midst of its progress and development pause to pay its tribute to those of its young men who by giving of their lives allowed us the right to grow and prosper in a demo- cratic way of life, that could not have been possible had the dictators of the world seized and ravaged this fair and prosperous land. At 2.30 pm. Sunday afternoon their Comrades will meet at the north end of the town to commence the MARCH of REMEMBRANCE to the Memorial where at 3 pm. the Service of Remembrance will be held. Mayor Tomlin urged all citiz- ens to take an interest in our in- dustrial development. “Our peop- le can do a great deal by talking up Richmond Hill and its many advantages," he said. A great deal of necessary spade work has been done and we will in future years reap the benefit, said Mr. Paterson in pointing out that the presentations on behalf of Richmond Hill had been well done and in a most impressive manner. "The work of our indus- trial commissioner has been sec- ond to none in Ontario,” he said. Councillor Paterson said he was very gratified by the work of the Industrial Commissioner, and moved that council go on record with a vote of confidence. c tained but a partly “finished in strial building. Today in that particular area, comprising ap- proximately 48 acres, there are 15 buildings on 18 acres of land and covering 70,000 square feet of space, plus a curling rink. To- tal estimated assessment of build- ings in this area is about $235,- 000. including land, plus $140,000. business assessment, making a total of $375,000. increased assess- ment in this area alone. The Mayor pointed out that one difficulty in securing new indus- try is the lack of available land and he suggested that council at an early date should give considâ€" eration to going outside the pres- ent town limits to acquire land for industrial development. He said that at the present time the tight money situation was an ob- stacle to taking such action. In his report the Industrial Commissioner said that in Sep- tember 1958 one particular area zoned industrial and located in what is now referred to as the Industrial and Enford Road area Richmond Hill Annual Service Of Remembrance Sunday Afternoon The Industrial Commissioner recommended consider- ation .of a plan whereby the municipality would annex, acquire and service an industrial area .north of Elgin Mills sideroad to be under a commission or committee of council. Mayor Tomlin and members of council hiâ€"g'hly praised the Industrial Commissioner for his services to the muni- cipality and a motion of confidence by Councillor Joseph Paterson received unanimous support. a summary of industrial progreés in the report presentérd to Town Council Monday night by‘ Industrial Commissioner R. G. Langford. - Eighteen new industrial operations have located in Richmond Hill in the past twelve months and at least three operations are scheduled for early next summer. This was Commissioner For Work OfThe Year Council ' Praises lest Mr. Miller, owner of the new industrial building erected on Centre Street east requested in- stallation of sanitary sewers. but gave a definite refusal to coun- cil's request that he convey to the municipality a depth of 16 feet of land for necessary widen- ing of the street. Council ruled that the dedication of the necess- ary land must be made before the sewers are installed. Mr. Miller said he would make application to install septic tanks. Permis- sion for use of septic tanks will have to be obtained from York County Health Unit. Doubt was expressed that any such permit would be granted. The commissioner’s report stat- ,ed that during. the past year his office had contact with 65 firms. He said in some cases the land requirement could not be met and in others the land price was in excess of their estimates. Some firms considered taxes here too high and others complained that rail transportation charges are excessive. In closing, the Indus- trial Commissioner's report stated the opinion that Richmond Hill can have a fine industrial future. Must Give Land Councillor Bradstock said if Richmond Hill is going to stay in the race we should acquire more industrial land which would be readily available to prospects at a fixed price. The Mayor said the budget for the Industrial Commissioner’s office this year was $14,000. In answer to a question by’Coun- cillor Ross the commissioner stated available industrial land in the town now totalled 110 ac- res. “We’ve got to get more Indus- trial land," said Reeve Perkins.
