GORDON READ Telephone AV. 5-4001 CARRVILLE NEWS Rallying 'Round The Hag After the festivities of the wedding, Mr. and Mrs. Middle- ton spent the night at Ingersoll and early Sunday morning made their way to Moorfield to attend the christening of their granddaughter Noreen Debra- Lee Ash at Rothsay United Church. Debra-Lee is the baby daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Ash, Moorfield, Ontario. Mr. and Mrs. Bob Middleton, Glen and Denise spent the past weekend at the home of Mr. and Mrs. James Ash. Jack Frost made it quite evident last Week that the early birds who had their garden in early weren’t going to be so early after all. It certainly dealt the beans and the tender shoots of similar vege- tables a cool blow. So it is out with the roto tiller and in with some more beans and hope it won't happen again. Anything is possible these days. Bert Middleton attended the wedding of Miss Marian Eliza- beth Spence and Mr. Allan Teskey at the Botany and Howard Road United Church, Northwood. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. C. Spence and the groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs Dalton Teskey, and a nephew of Mrs. Bert Middleton. Spokesman S. R. Patterson promised to take the matter up with his association, ex- pressing the belief that such 3a brief‘ would be forthcom- ing. For three years the trus- tees association has been seeking a portion of lot fees from subdividers to (lessen the cost to ratepayers of capital expenditures on new Ontario, Thursday, May780,_1963 school buildings required to take care of the children from these subdivisions, This time they were seeking a basis of agreement with council that they were en- titled to a portion of such lot fees. The delegation questioned where the lot fees had been spent, quoting the municipal act as requiring that they be spent in the areas where they are raised. Councillor Rumble asked how one was to define an area. “When I speak of an area I speak of a municipality", he said. The members of the delegation disagreed with this defini- tion. Reeve Wilfred Dean agreed that an area was hard to define, saying “I believe the money should be spent in the subdivision or for expenses incurred by the development of the subdivis- ion, such as roads, water and seWers, necessary addit- ional fire and police protec- tion and municipal build- ings. ' Asked if there was any- thing in the Municipal Act which said the money could not be used for schools, Reeve Dean replied that it was up to the council to de- cide. Councillor Allan Sum- ner reiterated “It’s up to council to decide where it is spentto the best. advantage. Council cannot use schools to cut taxes. The money is spent where John Q. Public gets the best returns." One member of the delegation replied, “We are John Q. Public too. Is it all John Q. a. \«W Publics you consider, or only a few?" Deputy - reeve Hooper pointed out that money from the lot fees spent on the new water tower would en- courage industrial develop- ment in the township result- ing in a saving to other ratepayers. Councillor Sum- ner declared that no one‘ outside of the water area‘ has contributed to the cost of the water tower. A list of those subdivisions whose lot fees had been used for the tower was read by the clerk. Requests from residents of School Secton 11, W. Tul~ loch and Perryman to have their properties transferred to School Area 3. so their children might attend But- tonville School without pay- ment of non-resident fees were also heard. They claim- ed available school accom- modation was discouraging sales in the subdivision. Council promised consider- ation of a by-law to include all of the crescent in the Person subdivision in School Area No. 3. Requests from Glen Ken» nedy (now in School Area 2) and Mrs. Donald Deacon (now in School Section No. 11) to have their properties transferred to School Section 10 was referred to the public school inspector for his con- sideratiOn. The delegation contended that a reduction in the over~ all cost of school debentures would result in a saving of taxes to all ratepayers. Going places? Entertain- ing friends and relatives?
