It AL, L_L-I L--- ‘L--- A letter from the Board of} Governors of the University of Toronto reoffered a strip of land, first offered a year ago. for the purpose of providing an ‘entrance to the David Dunlap Observatory from Hillsview Av- enue. Markham Township Coun- cil considered the letter at its recent meeting. The letter also suggesed a meeting between university and township offic- ials. It asked whether any pro- gress was being made in con- nection with the proposal, made some time ago and since lying dormant. University Asks Opening 01‘ Road For Observatory There were problems, said Reeve Wilfred Dean. One of them was a one foot reserve strip which barred the widening of the road. As it had not been deeded to the township it might be necessary to expropria‘te be- fore further action could be tak- en, he said.

They have a com- bined total realty and business assessment of $629,655.00. The new hotel alone will have a business and realty assessment of approximately $650,000.00. Mr. Graham pointed out, “the business of securing new indus- trial and business assessment is a painfully slow and labori- ous one. The location of the new hotel will in one stroke more than equal the assessment the industrial commission has been able to attract to Rich- mond Hil'l since 1957. “Aside from the great im- provement in our assessment picture. the hotel would pro- vide much needed dining and lounge facilities which modern industry requires as part of its Meetings of Richmond Hill tre Planning Board, the redevelop- the ment committee and tenants and an( owners of Yonge Street proper- tak ties have now been scheduled. sid Four meetings will be held at v] which the tenants and owners on] will be asked to advance ideas ten and suggestions regarding the in redevelopment of the area, which has seen many stores closed in recent weeks. Town Planning Director Harold Deeks L1 will use the information and suggestions gathered at the meetings in connection with the plans he is now making for rehabilitation of the down-town area. Meetings will be held in the R council chambers. The first will be on April 17th, at which time u tenants and owners from the de blocks on both sides of Yonge LC from Arnold and Lorne to Cen- RC ‘tre Street will be present.

One of the difficulties in trac- ling and identifying bicycles that Ithave been stolen, lost and re- covered results from owners 'themselves not knowing what make of bicycle they had lost. ‘Chief Robbins said that he had ‘ia number of bikes whose own- ers could not be traced because 'lthe machines could not be pmp- ‘lerly identified. Mr. Graham stressed that' competition between suburban towns was extremely keen in attracting industry. At the pres- ent time towns located west of Metropolitan Toronto are mak- ing the best progress in attract-‘ ing what little industrial ex-‘ pansion exists. Towns located to the north of Metropolitan Toronto have serious handicaps in attracting new industry. It means that communities such as Richmond Hill. Aurora and Newmarket are going to have to offer plus features to indus- try if they hope to attract new industrial assessment. ' Although the licensing of bi- cycles definitely makes recov- ery of lost bikes easier and [much faster it is not law in [Richmond Hill that all bikes have licences. Only those who "wish to have their cycles licen- ised do so, then if they have {their machine stolen and don't 'Eknow the make. they have the ‘licence number of the bicycle 'lto give to the police, who are 1 then able to trace the cycle with \ a minimum of trouble. “Richmond Hill has an oppor- tunity of making its municipal- ity far more attractive to pros- pective industry if it has the hotel with its dining, sales and lounge facilities available," he conciuded tre Street to Wright Street on the west side of Yonge Street and the May 8th meeting will take in properties on the east ‘side of Yonge.

Robbery Victim Thieves escaped with an un- determined amount from the Loblaws store at Crestwood Road and Yonge Street just north of S‘teeles Avenue early Sunday morning. Although it has been estim- ated that there was about $8,000 in cash and cheques in the safe at the time of the theft, it has not been said how much was taken because contents of the safe were charred when the thieves melted the door with acetylene cutting tools. The offence which occured sometime betwen 3:30 and 5:25 am. was discovered by a Vaughan Township police officer on a routine check. The officer {noticed smoke in the building ‘and his attention was also drawn to a pile of merchandise, which had been stacked in front of the safe and which was not there when he checked the buil- ding earlier. On investigation. zhinkinvg there was a fire inside, the officer found the front door of the store had been jimmied. The thieves left all their tools and cutting equipment, which had been stolen from Beamish Construction on Bayview Aven- ue April 7, in the store when they left. Bike Thefts Increase Owners Unidentifiable If you're an average driver who'd like to save three miles per gallon of gas on highway driving there's a painless way to do it.
