'Way Out On Habitation And Vacancies Chairman Ross Scrimger agreed that there was a considerable de- mand for apartment accommoda- tion in Richmond Hill. evidenced by the fact that the vacancy rate was extremely low. "It’s my duty to point out to the board that the report on Rich- mond Hill is full of errors and isn’t worth the paper it is writ- ten on," Mayor James Haggart told members of Richmond Hill Planning Board on Tuesday. He enumerated a number of errors, including those dealing with va- cancies. It had been possible to trace one bachelor apartment which had been recorded as be- ing vacant for six months, he said. The facts were that it had only been vacant for a few days between tenants. The meeting was mainly con- cerned with a discussion on re- development. It finally turned to the contentious Hurburt apart- ment project, with a statement by Chairman Scrimger that next week's meeting would endeavour to spend a considerable amount of time on it.

Farrow told the board. It had been suggested at a recent meeting that it might be applied in Richmond Hill. The Department of Municipal Af- fairs was strongly against its use also. he told the board. It cre- ated many problems. The board promptly dropped consideration of it. A proposal to establish a gun club and firing range in an in- dustrial building on Industrial Road was made to the planning board. It was agreed that this Ditch "Envelope" System council on Monday was so con- tradictory as to be innocuous," Mayor Haggart told planning board members as the Centre and Elizabeth Street apartment sit- uation was reviewed.

The French carnations picked up the colour of her satin petticoat, and a casual grouping of gloves, fan, quizzing glass and broken sealed paper wrapper suggested that the subject had dropped them to read her billet doux.
