They asked that the surface be improved, the roads widened and that school zone markings be set up, with speed reduced -to 25 m.p.h. Current speed limit is set at 30 m.p.h. The ratepayers also asked for severe punishment of offending drivers. They asked the road be reâ€" designed and widened with pro- vision of adequate storm sewers. that sch up, wit m.p.h. at 30 m The Reeve. John Perry, asked whether a letter to the Bar Asso- ciation would help. Councillor Ralph replied that he did not think so. “It is the personal re- sponsibility of each lawyer,” he said. Reeve Perry said that he did not wish to have the elderly people prosecuted because in most cases they were innocent of any intent to infringe the by-law. However, he felt with the clerk that this sort of thing had to be stopped. The Clerk said that the land was covered under a sub-division agreement. A parcel of land under ten acres being sold re- quired planning board approval and payment of a $300 fee. These people were by-passing the plan- ning board and saving $300. He said the by-law was quite specific, and stated clearly that "no per- son shall convey without consent of the planning board." Councillor Ralph said, “A lawyer is legally responsible for damages resulting from his negligence. Council can prose- cute the person for $300 and she can recover from her solicitor. The Reeve thought that before prosecuting, Council’s solicitor should be instructed to send a letter explaining the position to give those concerned an oppor- tunity to straighten things out. This action was agreed. Ratepayers Complaints However. difficulties would arise at a later date. He suggest- ed some kind of action was reâ€" quired although he did not favor action against often elderly people who did not understand they were infringing a by-law and making themselves liable to prosecution. The lawyers were actually the responsible people but, since they' were not the principals. council could not prosecute them. Lawyers Responsible Councillor Bruce Ralph, him- self a solicitor, said that lawyers are responsible for the damages incurred by clients resulting from negligence on the part of the legal advisors. - Council could, therefore, prose- cute the principals involved, who, in turn, could successfully prose- cute their own lawyers to recover cost involved. He suggested that most lawyers would pay up voluntarily rather than submit to prosecution. Write Bar Association? He said that “this Council was not elected to correct the mis- lakes of legal men." Councillor Ralph said the recourse was to prosecute under the by-law. Councillor Anstey agreed. By-Passing Board Act of sOme solicitors in failing to advise clients properly for need of planning board authority for the sale of land in certain cases. came under fire at the council meeting. One lady in the township had recently sold‘ a parcel of her land under ten acres without planning board consent. The Clerk, Jim Mc- Donald, in giving council the facts stated that fault lies with the solicitor advising the lady. This was only one of an increas ing number of such cases. The land deal was registered because the registry office does not re- quire evidence of Planning Board approval. Liable To Prosecution. Council decided to go along with the school board for the time being but instructed the clerk to take action to have a bill brought before the Provincial Government at the next session with the 0b- jectof requiring school boards to pay their own loan interest charges. Lawyers Are Criticized i Council discussed at length sub- ject of interest on loans obtained by the schoolboard. They thought the school board should pay the interest charges. The school board not only had refused to accept this but threatened to issue a warrant'bn council to com- pel it to pay. Reeve Perry said that Council had established the school board 'to se arate the school board mill rat from the township rate. Instead the school board. by its attitude in this mat- ter. was creating a situation in which its own mill rate would be decreased while thousands of dol- lars were being added to the township levyâ€"for education. Will Seek Government Bill School Board Levy (By Paul Delmer) The regular meeting of Vaughan Township Council Monday, scheduled for 9 a.m., was delayed 35 minutes while all .other council members waited the arrival of Councilor Jesse Bryson. Towards the close of the council meeting, Councillor Ralph was called to the telephone. He told council he must leave immediately because of an ur- gent appeal for his presence in Toronto. A case before the courts in which he was legal advisor for one of the parties had been adjourned to enable him to put in an appearance, the magistrate sitting on the case demanding his immediate attendance.

Elect Officers The Township School Board requested more information on the subject of a proposed sideâ€" walk southerly of the school property on the Kleinburg sub- division. The Reeve said it was a reasonable request. “What they want is an engineering report,” he added. “Let them have it.” He said the sidewalk was for the ben- efit of the school.

Councillor Anstey agreed and said, “The winter has been a heavy drain on the budget”. He added that the Road Department deserved a pat on the back for its Splendid work in keeping the roads clear. Deputy-reeve Ryder concurred. ’ Kleinburg Sidewalk “At the same time” the Reeve continued, “I must go on record as saying that snow clear- ance has cost the township 3 lot of money this year. As a result we are going to have bad road's this spring. The gravel roads will be bad and the paved roads will be potholed. and there’s no- thlng we can do about it. We might as well tell the people this now," he continued,’ “because it will be no good to come crying to us." Compliments Road Dem. Councillor Wm. Anstey said that there was not sufficient drainage in the area to justify installation of storm sewers. He agreed the road was narrow. He suggested that a lot of residents have erected monuments at the entrance to their driveways which have not helped matters. Winter conditions were bad but would be difficult to improve. In sum- mer conditions were not bad. Councillor Ralph asked if there was enough use of the roads to justify paving next year. Depu- ty-reeve Vic Ryder said "Yes, but we should have difficulties with the Department of Highways regarding subsidy.” Bad Roads This Year Reeve Perry said that the com- plaints should receive considera- tion.

In the absence of the Presi- dent, Mrs. Hicks thanked the Thornhill ladies for their invi- tation and in giving them such a lovely afternoon and in closing. said she hoped there would soon be a community hall in Langstafi in which they could return the compliment. Deputy-reeve Vic Ryder said he preferred direct control of planning from the government. The Reeve said that when he talked with Premier Frost on the subject, Mr. Frost had said “Met- ro IS the Province". Mr. Ryder quoted Metro Chairman Fred Gardiner as saying "the time is coming fior us to get out‘of fringe planning”. The Deputy- reeve added that in his view “the Provincial Government is just plain lazy." Nine members of the Mark- Vaun Women’s Institute and two from the Langstaff Young Wom- en’s Institute attended the Thorn- hill W.I. 58th anniversary cele- brations at the Masonic Hall, in Thornhill, on Thursday, March 17. The Mark-Vaun W.I. took part in the program by singing three Irish songs with Mrs. Heather Morrison at the piano. Mary Jones was the lucky winner of the door prize and before the afternoon was over five other Mark-Vaun _1adies had won prizes. This was the meeting which had been postponed earlier be- cause of weather conditions. He said that Vaughan Council could not attend because the whole council was meeting with Metro officials at the same time in Vaughan Township. During a brief discussion which followed, Councillor Anstey questioned by Deputy-reeve Ryder said he had no quarrel with Metro but that if the Provincial Government set up a planning department com- parable to Metro’s he would con- sider Provincial Government planning preferable. He wished to make it clear however that so far as he was personally con- cerned the present set up wi satisfactory and he had no ob jections to Metro’s planning.

The Reeve advised council that a meeting of the fringe munici- palities would be held March 22 (last Tuesday) at Richmond Hill. The local MPP's would be in at- tendance. Councillor Anstey associated himself with all the Reeve’s re- marks. Councillor Ralph said he would not attend. The Clerk re- ceived no instructions in the mat- ter. Fringe Municipalities ter received from the Town of Richmond Hill inviting council to participate in one more meet- ing at least of the Inter-Municipal Co-ordinating Committee. The Reeve stated he never had sup- ported the committee. He had gone along with it because he thought that was council's wish. Then after joining it, council had criticized him. He declared that it was his conviction the commit- tee served no useful purpose and accomplished nothing. He was ready to co-operate at council level with the other municipali- ties whenever such co-operation was in the mutual interests of ,the municipalities concerned. Criticizes Markham Twp.
