The mayor, William Neal and. past Mayor James Haggart md Council of Richmond Hill. the reeve of Vaughan Township Mr. Otto Whalen prodpced a plan for the extension of Trench Street and the deSIgn of water main. sewers, pump house and stand-by generator plant. A formula for cost shar- ing by the municipalities and the hospital was worked out that is reasonable. The matter of services, sewers and water has been a worri- some one. The site being in Vaughan Township, close to the Town of Richmond Hill and adjacent to Markham Township. has made the sharing of the cost a problem. The architects, Marani, Morris and Allan, are justifying our having retained them in the design and their insistence of rigid adherence to the best architectural and construction practice. The quality of workmanship of the contracter and the sub- contractors is of a high standard under the direction of Mr. Sidney Stewart. superintendent for Angus Robertson. Our interest is being thoroughly looked after by our highly quali- fied Clerk of Works, Mr. Frank Murray. The hospital design which will provide at this stage 126 beds and 41 bassinets with all necessary services. is adapted to future extensions to 600 beds in the most economical way. In general the work is up to or slightly ahead of the sched- gée that calls for completion of construction by September . 1963. The building committee of the board, chairman, Mr. John Griffin, is watchful that construction is carried out so that we will have a structure of the best quality. To date - the exterior masonry is complete, the interior masonry on partitions is complete on the second and third floors and proceeding on the fourth floor. The boilers are in place. The trades - heating, plumbing. ventilating and electrical - are well advanced. ‘In Essentials Unity; In Non-Essentials Liberty; In All Things Charity" RICHMOND HILL, ONTARIO, THURSDAY; MARCH 28, 1963 Juvenile delinquents prose- cuted numbered 67, and most prevalent offences were theft and breaking and entering.

The financial report will be submitted shortly but I have the temerity to give you some figures lead- ing up to the reason for the drive and the continuing of the Appeal even though the objective which was arbitrarily set has to all intent and purpose been reached. The Donations, Bequests and Membership Committee chair- man, Mr. Graham Walter has rendered wonderful service in set- ting up the plans and organization of the County of York United Hospitals Appeal and will continue to be active in the approach to the many and various foundations for grants and donations to the two hospitals. The Management Committee chairman Mr. James Reycraft has been busy in purchase of certain equipment and will soon be very much occupied with securing further equipment. furnishings and the signing on of personnel to build up the staff of the hospital. The professional, technical, nursing and sub staff will be secured locally if possible. The Public Relations Committee chairman Mr. Jack Smith has done splendid work in keeping everyone well informed about hospital matters. Albert Rutherford and the reeve of Markham Township Wilfred Dean have co-operated in a most whole-hearted manner to the end that the entire matter of services will be resolved and con- struction started very soon, God willing.
