At the pres- ent time the money in the lot fee fund from Area No. 1, is being ‘borrowed’ to finance a sewer pro- ject in that area." The reeve ex- plained to the trustees that coun- oil has not yet worked out a sysâ€" tem of distribution regarding lot fees, but said they are going to do so. He suggested lot fee money could make an appreciable cut in the issuing of debentures for public schools, if used in the area where new lots â€" which were the cause of new schools and additions to schools â€" were contribut- ing to the lot fee fund. Going a step further he said Sep- arate School boards should also figure proportionately in allotments from the fund, “but I don’t feel the high school board would be in a position to share in this levy, since it is a cost which is shared by four municipalities.” Chairman Allan Parker of T.S.A:.

The board places schools where population density requires All we try to do is meet the sit- uation as we see it arising. In this particular case, (insufficient access roads to Woodland Park Schools, when this school site was purchased it was raw land and the only suitable site in that par- ticular area.” “I don't think the electorate is going to criticize the school board for buying land there at $4,200 an acre, in comparison to your Professing themselves satisfied to leave the settlement of the lot fee distribution to ‘council’s judg- ment, Chairman Parker then went on to ask about an access road at Elgin Street. “We have your letter jn which you state you feel Councillor John MacNeil as- sured the board, "As a taxpayer in Ward 1, I don’t want any more increase in my own taxes for school purposes â€" and I am not going to see the lot fees from Ward I spent in Concession 9." Access Road From Elgin Mr. Sand said, “The maximum grant on a 10.room school is $100,000, yet the school might cost $200,000. Any money coming to the board from the lot fee fund would tend to lower the amount of debenture which the grant would not cover â€" the grant would continue .on just the same. if it used muniéipal funds they would lose their grants. “It is obvious we. the council, are using this fund for such things as fire protection, municipal buildings, etc.. for which there are no grants. We have to sit down and figure out where we are going to get the most value from the use of this money. The installation of sewers is an immediate need in that area and by using this mon- ey for that purpose everybody gets the benefit.” Deputy-reeve Dean said that whereas ’Lhe school board gets a g_ra_nt from the Vgpvefirnrmexgt now, Mr. Parker said that was agree- able to him, “Education is one of our biggest costs, and when the taxpayers ask about excessive taxes you (the council) say, “We have no control over the school boards". Here’s where you might say, ‘We do have some control’.” Harking back to the time when Donald Deacon served on the municipal council, the reeve said a system of equitable distribution was worked out at that time, "and we are going to do something ab- out it soon.” The reeve replied, “It’s all loan- ed out just now. There will be a definition made -â€" whether it will be satisfactory to your board or not remains to be seen.” School Trustee Mr. Leslie E. Clark interjected to say, “This sort of thing could go on for an- other ten years â€" and you would still feel something else is more important to the council?” He then asked, “Could we apply for a loan from this fund?” building, and to enlarge the gar- age for the Roads Department, money for which would come from the lot fees fund. Over 1,000 New Fall Hats At the time of his marriage to the late Jennie Wiley, Fred Grainger moved to Richmond Hill and lived here all his life until a few years ago when he went to live with his granddaugh- ter at Keswick. He was employed for many years at the Aurora and Elgin Mills tanneries, and then for more than twenty years w s on the staff of Oldfield 8: Cgtton, later Richmond Roses Ltd. A member of the famous Young Canadians, national lacrosse The late Fred Grainger who was in his 87th year was born at Thornhill. son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Grainger. Of his two brothers and two sisters, only Mrs. Frank Green of Tor- onto survives. She is in her 90th year and attended the funeral on Tuesday. The late Mr. Grainger met sud- den death in a head-on car crash near Keswick last Saturday af- ternoon. In excellent health he went for a short trip with his son Alfred and Don Robbins, husband of his granddaughter. Mr. Fred Gralnger and the two occupants of the other car were instantly killed. Alfred Grainger and Don. Robbins sustained con- siderable injury and are still in Newmarket Ijlospital. The funeral of the. late Fred Grainger, for many years a high- ly esteemed resident of Richmond Hill, was held Tuesday afternoon from the Wright 8: Taylor Fun- eral Home. The service was con- ducted by Rev. C. G. Higginson, of Richmond Hill United Church, who in extending sympathy to the bereaved family expressed concern for Canada's mounting highway toll. “It is unfortunate,” he said, “in this modern day when we have accomplished so much to prolong life and make it pleasant and enjoyable‘ that we destroy so many lives by ac- cidents_ on our highways”. Fred Grainger Resident Town And District For Many Years Crash Victim Mr. Parker suggested {hé'tisfiihze a second school is planned on the Woodland site, west of the pres- Mr. Parker said it was just a matter of co-operation between the council and the board regard- ing an access road. "It just re- quires simple study to determine that all it needs is a 550 foot strip of road, to turn it from a $4,200 per acre site into a more ‘expensive one. We'd be crazy if we went out in the future and bought only on travelled roads -â€"- we’d have the mill rate so high you wouldn't even be able to see it.” Once again reiterating the board had got the land at a very reasonable figure he stressed, “We are only asking you to sup- ply a road to it.” Mr. Parker re- marked that there is nothing in the Act to say a school board can- not buy roads, but the Depart- ment defines they should first try to work this problem out with its municipal council. He further not- ed that the township planning board had recommended that a road right-of-way be established south from Elgin to the west of the school property â€" “but at that time you were not in agree-- ment with the planning board.” Residents are requested to govern themselves accordingly. Markham Township residents are hereby notified that Armistice Day, Friday, November 11, 1960, has been proclaimed as a legal holiday in Mark- ham Township. HARRY CRISP W. L.

Outlining the work the school board has done on school area skating rinks. such as providing use of school properties and wa- ter facilities, Mr. Parker said the last item for discussion with council was, “who will provide supervision.” It was suggested by some, he said, that since there is so much unemployment a job as supervisor might be arranged for an unemployed resident of the township. Reeve Clark said council was just on the point of setting up a Community Board in that area and whe_n it had been appointed Referring to the establishment of a second school on the ll-acre Woodland Park property, Mr. Parker said his board had already approached the high school board regarding use of the extreme west end of the high school play- ing field for a playground for the new school. but that the two boards did not come to any con- clusion. He asked that a study of the drainage to the west of the high school be made by town- ship engineers. Skating Supervision Reeve Clark then suggested the Township Roads Committee discuss this problem further ‘and Mr. Parker said anything they could do about an extension on Elgin Street would be much ap- preciated.
