The township's first grader was purchased in 1927 at a cost of $2,165.00. In 1942 the road estimates were 330320.00; in 1961 they were $218,364.00. “This is quite an increase over a 20 year period," the stated. ‘Municipal Water Councillor Sumner outlined ing for his audience the early his- age tory of Markham Township from Tor when it was first settled in 1790. vou noting that it had always been jus1 a predominantly rural area. and fen conservative in its thought and era actions. In 1871. he stated. it 17c was one of the greatest wheat was growing areas in Canada. of Finances |Th¢ He noted that the township's finances had always been sound and that during the ’30‘s they had been able to pick up the tab for some debentures of Scarborough Township. Mark- ham Township finances were still in good shape. he stated. and its debentures found a readv sale. He also noted that the township had a very low wel- fare rate. so low in fact. that they required only a part-time welfare officer. No Land Speculation In discussing the township’s post-war development, he noted that it had been able to learn by the mistakes of the munici- palities to the south and there had been virtually no land spec- ulation in the township. The planning board had been estab- lished in 1948 and has been op- erating very efficiently. Devel- opment has been taking place gradually from the south-west ‘corner of the township. Police Councillor Sumner noted that the township's first police offic- er had been hired in 1934 at a salary of $100.00 per month. By 1946 police protection was still only costing $1,500 per year, plus a $600.00 per year car al- lowance; but in 1961, the cost of police protection had jumped to $82,240.00, with a total of 14 men on the force. This year there are 16 men on the force. Road Costs High Municipal water had been dis- cussed for many years and Water Area No. 1 was set up just 10 years ago. This area takes in from Bayvtew to Yonge and from Steeles Avenue north ‘tn No. 7 Highway. It took a long ttime to locate a suitable water supply and the original pump- ‘ing station was on John Street ‘where a million gallons of water a day was pumped. This supply is now not enough and the sys- tem will be extended in the next few years, Councillor Sum- ner indicated. Plans call for the acquisition of two of Metro's deep wells, plus a water treat- ment plant on the south side of Steeles Avenue. it is expected to have this in operation in the near future. Extension of the water mains up Bayview Aven- ue is also planned with a water tower just south of No. '7 High- way. The water system will also be extended to the Don Mills Road Industrial Subdivision and to the Green Lane Subdivision. Sewers Councillor Allan Sumner, representative of Ward I on the Markham Township Council and chairman of the water and sanitation committee admitted that of} the 170,000 gallons of sewage disposed of through the, Metro system last month, some 45 to 50,000 gallons1 was seepage. He stated however, that an adjustment was being made on the bills for this and in the mean- time they were trying to find the area of heavy infil- tration. He reminded his audience however, that if they drained swimming pools into the sewers, this would have to be paid for at the sewage rate. Mr. Sumner was accompanied on the platform by Mr. D. Miklas, the township engineer and Planning Director Ronald Forrest. “We feel you have a very leaky main trunk sewer,” insisted one ratepayer and he was warmly applauded by the capacity crowd at the March 19th meeting of the Grandview Estates Ratepayers’ Association at Henderson Avenue Public School. Sewers had first been project- ed several years ago and the township bought a sewage dis- posal site on the Don valley a few years ago.

He said that he wanted to help straighten out registry records, which “were not in too good a shape." A very long-winded description was required in the records at the registry office, he said. The opportunities for error and the additional amount of work required for lawyers were great, he asserted. A judge could issue an order, Said Mr. Hearst, and the town would be forced to act. The cost of the new registration would be about $30 a lot. Etobicoke and North York Townships are car- rying 0‘“ re‘regiStratiOD 0“ a was beginning to see the need. kiss progressive proram. About 600 lots would be afiected in Rich- mond Hill, said Town Clerk Rursell Lynett. Problem, Says Solicitor there had been problems as to titles. The present situation might also result in an assess- ment being over or under, he declared, as the actual land cov- erage of the lot might be at var- iance. Old reference points had disappeared. The possibility of error increased from year to year. New surveys would lead to a clearing up of many prob- lems and would define lots exâ€" actly. The change could be made on a progressive basis, said Mr. Hearst. As a former deputy reeve he appreciated the prob- lems with which a council was faced. He suggested that so many lots be done every year until the change over was comâ€" Ipleted. Council referred the matter to the finance committee for‘ study after Deputy Reeve Tom lBroadhurst said that he had not .been sympathetic at first but i 'STOUFFVILLE : The Lions Club has asked Stouffvilie Coun- cil to pass a by-law setting nn 2: roorpatinn commission. linto darkness, file/Each in Schools iss udrey Leary. rinci al of Jefferson Public Sclgool. 51d Nirs.

Councillor Sumner advised that application had been made for extension of street lights along Steeies to Bayview. He noted that there were at present four street lighting areas and that last month the Ontario Hydro Was requested to make a spryey ing up several such small sew- age plants in their area. Metro Toronto did not .look with fa- vour on a new sewage plant just outside its borders and of- fered to sell the township sew- erage services. Their price of 17c per 1,000 gallons of sewage was much cheaper than the cost of building a disposal plant. The Municipal Board has now given approval for the extension of the sewage area right up to and including Thornhill and this work is to be started this year. of the requirements of the whole area. Council has decided to have the whole area lit un- der one rate and is also studying the feasibility of a local hydro commission for the township. Garbage Collection? Councillor Sumner noted that the township has also concernâ€" ied itself with the acquisition of park lands. The municipality can demand five per cent of all new subdivision lands for parks or can take a sum of mon- ey in lieu of this in a small subdivision. They recently bought two acres west of Hen- derson Aventue School and ex- pect to acquire another two ac- res adjoining. Just east of Hen- derson Avenue there are two lots for a parkette for the use of mothers and small children. The township is also acquiring a major part of the East Don River Valley and now owns five acres there. Councillor Sumner suggested that if the Grand- view Estates Ratepayers' Assoc- iation was looking for a pro- ject in the future, they might ‘well consider the beautifying of these park areas. In discussing future de- velopment of the Ward I area, Councillor Sumner advised that the develop- ment around the G.E.M. Store would include multi- ple family apartments on Yonge Street and on the south side of the C.N.R. right-ofâ€"way back to Ben- derson Avenue. He sug- gested that the ratepayers should attend a meeting to be held at Thomhill High School on Thursday, March 29th when the township’s oflicial plan for the next 20 years will be explained and discussed. Industrial-Residential Ratio Another item under Consider- ation is garbage pick-up. “Pick- ing it up is just one item." stat- ed Councillor Sumner. "Getting rid of it is another." The popu- lation does not warrant the con- struction and operation of an incinerator. The possibility of a sanitary land fill scheme is now being studied, although this will require expensive equip- ‘ment. Park 'a progressive basis, said Mr. Hearst. As a former deputy reeve be appreciated the prob- lems with which a council was In reply to a question con- cerning the townshlp's residen- tial-industrial ratio, Councillor Sumner advised that Markham's present ratio of 70% residen- tial to 30% industrial was now slightly better than North York. Residential areas will always be the backbone of the town- shlp, he stated, but they hoped for a 60-40 ratio eventually. It ls expected that the jail farm ‘ property will be released for de- velopment shortly. An industrial ‘area of 1.800 acres was planned ‘for the Don Mills-Highway 404 and 407 area; two other minor industrlal area: are also belng ldeveloped. The meeting was chaired by the association's president. Prof. C. E. Phillips. Mr. E. J. Lynch reported that he had attended the last meeting of the schooli board of T.S.A. No. 1 Markham, as a representative of the as- sociation and that from what he was able to gather after only one meeting, the board members were hard-working, conscien- tious and doing a good job. It was announced that the next meeting of the association would be on April 9th.
