lContinued from Page I) spent on parks in 1960. Of this total figure $15,400.00 was rais- ed by council through taxation, and $2,300.00 came for the No. 3 Account. The major expendi- ture in 1960 was $16,500.00 for a new five acre park site on Crosby Avenue. Other expen- itures included $3,000.00 for {he equipment and work on the Elgin Mills Park Subdivision, $2,300.00 for equipment, and $250.00 for the rent on the Polish Park 10- caled on Rumble Ave. Levy 0n Taxpayers Mr. Bradstock reported there is $2,000.00 left in the park purchase fund. With the No. 2 and 3 Accounts (subdivision ac- counts) nearly all spent he said any future funds will have to come as a direct levy on the tax- payer. He didn't favour the is- suing of debentures as he felt it was an expensive way to raise money. Mr. Bradstock estimated that during the past three years the town has spent between $60,- 000.00 and $70,000.00 on parks. Provincial law requires that 5% of all subdivision land must be donated for park purposes. Where the dedication is for any reason not satisfactory for park purposes then it can be sold and the money put in a .‘und for fu- ture purchases of park land. Both Beverley Acres and Walter Scott Public Schools were built on what had originally been des- ignated as park land. Community Centres Any park development which can be classed as a community centre is eligible for a provin- cial grant up to a maximum of 55.000.00. The province is pres- ently paying a grant on the town park. Mr. Bradstock said applica- tion will be made for a grant on the Lennox Ave, Elgin Mills Park Subdivision and Crosby Ave. Parks. once they are classed as community centres. Lists Parks Forecast Town Parks â€" * The speaker classed the major park in the municipality as the town park. He said both a portion of the east side (east of the C.N.R. Tracks. north of Mark- ham Road. and south of Taylor Mills Drive North) and the west side of‘ town were lacking in adequate park space. However the new Crosby side will help on the east side. and the Polish Park on Rumble Ave. assists on the west side. Other parks or pai‘kettes now operated by the town include the one acre park in the Elgin Mills Park Subdivision the Lenâ€" nox Ave, Park and the Bedford Park Ave.. Parkette. A parkette has been set up just behind the E550 Service Station on Bayview Ave. South. The parkette in the Glenbrae Subdivision is the original 5% subdivision dedication. The pond area and Levendale Subdvision dedication both re- quire more work. The pond and stream valley area on the west side of town will be developed under authority of the Metro and Toronto Conservation Authority \, \uuxuubu-‘y, II‘IquAIAuull‘v- Av4u|\\.«v A\A\4ul ~qu' cabinet.

Although the conser~ vation authority will be in com- plete control, Mr. Bradstock as- sured the audience that Metro have agreed to not erect picnic tables or hot dog stands in the pond area. Fear was expressed that development and control by a centralized authority could re- sult in a weekend flood of people from the Metro area. Mr. Bradstock reported the 10- cal public sehool board has been most coâ€"operative in allowing the use of school property for after school hours recreation. He re- ported that the district high school board, which has one school in town and anotheren its border, has been reluctant to allow use of its property by town citizens. "I hope they will be more co-operative in the fu- ture." remarked Mr. Bradstock. The names of those attending the meeting were recorded and they will be studied later by council when appointments are being made to the new board. Vaughan A. C. PECK Alan \C. Peck. 21 Westwood Lane.

The 3-member board has under its jurisdiction four mun- icipalities. Vaughan. the largest shareholder: Richmond Hill, Markham Township and Wood- bridge.

R. Smith, president of the newly formed Lake Wilcox-Oak Ridges Homeowners Association. suggest- ing two names for the upcoming Court of Revision which is to be either re-appointed or re-group- ed this year. The association rec- ommended W. K, Kaufman of {Richmond Hill or W. H. Houting, iproprietor of the Dutch Gardens, LOak Ridges. Road expenditure pr0ved the major item Monday at the year’s second meeting of Whitchurch Township Council held between 2 and 5 pm. at the municipal building‘, Van- dorf, when it was formally moved to apply for the 1960 subsidy from the Department of Highways in the amount of $99,100.00 which represents 50 per cent of the total out- lay of $198,200.00. And still on the question of roads, council was advised by the department that until further provisions are made it will approve of 1961 expenditures of $130,000.00. This is to cover construction and mainten- ance. Special capital works projects by the township will be considered at a later date but Whitchurch should submit pertinent estimates no later than July. The $130,000.00 approval is up from last year’s preliminary approval of $110,000.00 and represents 820,000.00 more for mainten- ance. Said Councillor Ross Farquharson: “I see the depart- ment has at last recognized that we do have road problems. I’m gratified.” Among bills ordered paid was one for some $1,100.00 covering the roads payroll for -the January 1-15 period: $654.34 general acâ€" counts; $188.40 charge accounts and $172.61 in a tax rebate. The township also cancelled a cheque of $19.37 which had developed male than its legal amount of rubber. With these items behind them, council was launched into the new term's administrative prob- lems. A week earlier it had, am- ong other things. authorized the borrowing of $300,000.00 by prom- issory note during 1961; sanction- ed the action of the former coun- cil in issuing cheques for nursing home care during November, 1960, in the amount of $326.00; that general accounts totalling $1.698.55 be paid and that relief bills for last November and De- cember. amounting to $151.54 be taken care of. Court of Revision Councillor Elsie Gibbs said that as far as she understood the sit- uation. the association in no way questioned the fairmindedness of the 1960, five-member court body. "They simply feel that inasmuch as there now is more urban than rural taxation sources that it might make for greater inter- township harmony if the area was represented this year.” Reeve Cliff Wallwork agreed to make the rounds. to interview both men and the 1960 court members with a view to ascertaining how many would be willing to sit an- other year.
