It was at the June 18 meet- ing that the Richmond Hill Planning Board made known it desired a seat on the Metro ‘panent board. At that time the board ag- reed to a resolution to seek direct representation on Metro “in view of our observations over the past six months it is felt Richmond Hill more than ever needs a representative."

People Unhappy iCouncil Figuresi He va35 reminded that the township had an anti-noise by- law. Markham Township Councilm lors were operating on the oft- proved theory that barking dogs make for unhappy neigh- bours Monday when they with- held an application for a dog licence. “fig-application was made by Mr. and Mrs. H. Schlotzer to breed dogs on 10 acres of pro- perty on Highway 7 across from the Buttonville Airport. Mr. Schlotzer appeared be- fore councll stating he had three dogs now â€"â€" one Lapland- er and two beagles. â€"‘ “But beagles can be very noisy unless they are train- ed to be quiet." said Reeve Wilfred Dean. When reminded the nearby airplane was “fairly noisy" council members felt dogs could be noisier. :Pian Restoration“ 2 x {Of Cemetery As Winter Works} Mr. Schlotzer said there were not many people in the nearby area and assured Council some- one would be with the dogs all the time to keep them quiet. “I think we should check the urea before committing ourselves" suggested Coun- cillor Allan Sumner. Council agreed and ord- ered a bylaw officer to poll the area to see if any of the residents had object- ions to dogs -- nolsy or otherwise. Vaughan is thinking ahead to winter. At its Monday night meeting. township council approved a restoration project for an aban- doned cemetery in Kleinburg. It will be the third pioneer ce- metery restored by the town- ship. With the exception of mater- ials, most of the money spent on the project will be recover- able from the winter works programme. Councillor Ruth McConkey said. First cemetery restored two years ago was an old kirk ce- metery on the 7th Concessionl where the old stones were takâ€" en up and used as part of a commemorative cairn and the area cleared and landscaped. Last year, the cemetery of the old Hope United Church north of Maple was restored with a large cross cairn and the old gravestones, some of them dat- ing back to early 1800's set around It. H.““““““““ “"haplandevs are gentle and very quiet," said Mr. Sohlomer. Township draughtsman John Hall helped with the design for the cairns and local stonemas- ons assisted with the stone cleaning and restoration. The project will begin in No. vember and is a winter-long job. Workmen use a portable hut on the site for the cleaning. It was suggested by area residents who still have an interest in the old plots since ancestors lie there. Once completed, ries’ upkeep is the ty of the township.
