He claimed that the rea- son for increase could best be explained by the assessment department of the township, and asked why there was not somebody here to give the ans- wer. George Nash of Arnleighl Heights agreed that it was de-l sirable to “give our children the best education possible, as long as we can afford to pay for it." He charged. “Whilel you fellows are building monu-l ments will you try to consider the people who have to pay the shot? We can’t afford it." A‘ Woman in the audience stated reports in daily papers said‘ only 27 per cent of school buil- ding costs went into classroom construction, the rest being con- sumed by corridors and teach- ers' rooms with broadloom, swimming pools and other ’frills’. Chairman Ross emphat- ically stated that not one yard ofi broadloom has been installed in York Central schools, there are no pools, andin many cases corridors walls are of cement block construction, not even plastered. but painted on the blocks. Trustee Honsberger agreed that teachers are getting good salaries. reporting that there were 2500 vacancies advertised in March to catch the 350 gra- duates this year from the Col- lege of Education. It is a quest- ion of paying the going rate or of not having a teacher in the classroom, he claimed. Trustee Honsberger pointed out the much improved educa- ratepayer asked why rate- payers did not get a chance to vote on proposed school additions. as he claimed was the case in the United States. Phone 285-1073 Asked what hope there is of holding the line on taxes for high school purposes and what other means can be explored to raise money for this purpose, the trus- tees replied there is some hope of increased provin- cial grants next year. Chairman Russ pointed out that the ratio of commerc- lal assessment to resident- ial assessment in the town- ship is very low. Increased commercial development would help keep the tax rate stable.

Referring to members 01‘ the school board as '....ed hands” on more than one occa- sion. Mr. Hooper charged that he, an elected official. was deo nied a chance to speak in favor of the “hired hands." “They go out and buy land in vacant‘ fields and pay exorbitantl prices." he charged. “The site‘ in Vaughan Township has no sewers, no water, no roads, no nothing. Who's going to pay for these services?" After reiterat- ed demands to know the price paid per acre for the site of the new Langstaff High School, and disregarding trustees answers that they felt it unwise at the present time to divulge this information since they still had to buy other land, Mr. Hooper did not believe the answer of $4,000 per acre provided by Trustee Norman Tyndall with the chairman’s permission. Mr. Hooper also charged the high school board had been turned down Tuesday night by the health unit, on application for approval of the proposed Langstaff High School. Trustees denied this charge and added it was not even de- layed. It‘s proceeding as plan- ned." After returning time and again to the same question and receiving the same answer, Mr. Hooper drew laughter from the audience when he claimed “I‘m not emotional, I’m a taxpayer in the highest assessed school section in the province of On- tario.” He finally subsided after returning to the question of lo- cation of this site several times. T.S.A. N o. 3 S. R. Patterson, finance chairman. before presenting the reasons for the approximately six mills rise in public school taxes read from the school act‘ the section which states that Chairman Arnold Mortson‘ introduced board members of T.S.A. No. 3, and when no members of the audience knew the boundaries of the area, de- lineated them. AV. 5-3756 Monthly the school board shall provide adequate accommodation for children who have the right to attend school. When the area was formed, he explained, 5.5. No. 5 (But- tonville). had. a. surplus. of $10,000 in current funds. This was used up in 1962. when thel mill rate was set at 8 mills (in 5.5. No. 3 which had a deficit, the 1962 rate had been 25 mills). This year, the school rate over the entire area is 21 mills. An additional $5,000 surplus in the capital account of 5.5. No. 5 had been turned over to the area. and had been used in the addition of a room on 5.5. No. 4 school. With proâ€" vincial grants on this expendi- ture which will be received this year, the speaker claimed this addition cost the ratepayers practically nothing. lot fees, posed by Mr. Jones, Mr. Patterson claimed he has] been accused of drooling over these lot fees. “If I do, it’s on‘ your behalf.” He claimed there‘ is no better purpose for lot fees than the alleviation of capital school costs. “The trustees as- sociation," he said, “claims that when subdivider enters into an agreement with the township, they should be required to say that lot fees Should go for school purposes. At present the subdivider installs streets, elec- tric lights, sewers, drainage. What is left, but schools? Lot fees would reduce debenture costs. Funds for other munici- pal services can be borrowed at a lower rate of interest than Answering a question abouti One thing holding back de-‘ velopment of the jail farm is necessity for sewage. Develop- ers of the Thornhill project have agreed to put in a sewer system at their own expense if they are allowed to develop their residential lands, thus op- ening the way to the jail farm industrial area. However, the township would be responsible for a sewers trunk line along a portion of Bayview Ave, and this would involve considerable expense. Here again, Mr. Hoo- ‘ ver questioned cost to the tax- ‘ payer. “We have been given a fig- ure on this. but what if the ‘project costs more than quot- ed?" he asked. “One project we have on hand is costing us more than anticipated, but I am not going to expose that at this time." Councillor Sumner of ward 1, remarked that the jail farm issue has been a “pimple on the pickle of progress” for many years. “other townships are spending large sums to get industry," he said. “Etobi- coke jumped at the chance to get a 70/30 ratio. Mark- ham Township couid have Board Agreemenfl Before Developed Planning board members said that industry is needed to help assessment, and to attract such buyers, the township must haVe a “forward” image. In defence of planning board’s re- quest, Mr. J. S. Gadsby said: “Release does nothing but give Markham Township a “forward image”. Release would invite interested people to investigate Markham’s potential for indus~ try. Right at the moment you don't know what you are turn- ing down.” Councillor Rumble, on the other hand, felt that releasing new lands for residential sub- division, without assurance that industry would take up the ap- proved 70/30 ratio, would be like “sending a snow ball over the brow of a hill." To this Mr. Gadsby protested: “We don’t have to allow 1,400 homes. We can stop at any time â€"â€" cut it down to size. We can melt that snowball.” (Continued from Page 1) Mr. Alex Maynard, planning board chairman, and Mr. J. S. Gadsby, member, told Mr. Rumble that under the New Official Plan developers must come to an agreement with school boards before a subdiv- ision is ratified. Need Forward Image , “How would you like that one?” he challenged. That’s the mill rate we saved you from by forming T.S.A. No. 3.” He pointed out that "ev- ery day you allow a child to stay home from school. it costs the ratepayers 500, since grants are based on average daily attendance. Cost per pupil in 1963 in the area was $287. Average cost of educating a secon- dary pupil is $654.40." :50/50 ratio on this jail farm deal." Deputy-reeve Hooper said he believes it will take two or three years to get the development going, and by that time the town- ship could handle it. The planning board's plea was granted, and they went away happy» |d Pioneer Village O'xen ‘5}:Not Too Delicate To funds for schools. because wat- er and sewage systems are self- liquidating." Go To Plowing Match Water Main Township Engineer D. Miklas The "delicate" team of oxen, usually confined to their Pion- eer Village home on Steeles Ave. by Metro Toronto and Re- gion Conservation Authority will appear at the world plowâ€" ing matches next October in Caledon. Last month a committee deâ€" cided the oxen were too prone to injury to be used in many public appearances and ruled out a request to show them at the matches. Last week, the committee was asked to reconsider and was told the team would re- ceive all the comforts of home during the five-day event. The committee ruled the team could go but that there was no change in the Authori- ty’s policy since the oxen would be used in connection with a conservation exhibit. Concluding Mr. Patter- son stated that he would continue to approach coun- cil for a share of lot fees for school capital costs during the remainder of his term of office which ex- pires on December 31 this year. “Council can take a breath of relief, because after December 31, I will not be a trustee.” DRIVING SCHOOL AUTOMATIC - STANDARD VOLKSWAGEN Dual Controlled Fully Insured Govt.
