Application forms will be made available to teachers in Toronto and Lakeshore Teach- ers‘ Colleges, and an advertise- ment will be placed in a daily newspaper requesting applica- tions for the 16 positions open. Mayor Thomas Brosdhurst commented that council had this in hand some months ago. and Reeve Donald Plaxton noted that in some cases expensive expropriation would be neces- sary in order to daylight. He also pointed out that some pro- perty owners involved had ex- pressed their intention to co- operate with council in carry- ing out this work. “The only answer I can give is I don’t see All told, 24 new staff mem- bers will be required. In ad- dition to the 16 resignations, one sabbatical leave, and one teacher loaned to the Depart- ment of National Defence, one extra kindergarten teacher will be needed at Walter Scott and Beverley Acres Public Schools. Consideration will also be given to employing four super- numerary teachers, one more than the usual number. Superintendent Gordon Mc-1 Intyre said the board was al-j lowed three supemumeraries for every 100 teachers, but as there were now 121 teachers in the system, it was decided to request a fourth. The board granted sabbati- cal leave to Mrs. Eleanor Robertson to take a post-gradu- ate course at the University of Toronto for her Bachelor of Library Science. On her re- turn she will be appointed lib- rarian in CrOsby Heights Sen-‘ 101- School, with general super- vision over all libraries in the school system. The Board will pay 60 per- cent of Mrs. Robertson's salary while she is taking the course. Permission was granted to Mr. McIntyre to attend the On- tario Educational Association meeting in Toronto, April 19 and 22. The present retirement age of 62 for teachers was amended to 65, on the recommendation of the personnel committee. It was also moved that the board could request a teacher to remain on staff beyond the retirement age on an annual basis. An amendment to the salary schedule permitting the super- intendent to recommend that teachers be hired and granted category or experience for past experience related to their new position, was approved. The board also moved to‘ sponsor 10 teachers to the York: Central District High School; Board's audio visual methods‘ course in the amount of $60 per teacher.

The second letter, also dated March 30. asked council to apply to the Legislature for an act to outlaw propane distribution plants within the boundaries of populated areas and municipalities. On motion of Councillor Wal- ter Scudds, this letter was re- ferred to the industrial com- mittee of council for investiga- tion. and, with the solicitor, to arrive at Wording for a petition to the Legislature. Mayor Broadhurst noted that council is taking steps to try{ to outlaw hazardous uses plants ' in Richmond Hill, but felt that the word "outlaw" is too harsh and too restrictive, since it is difficult to legislate enough so that the danger is cut off with- out interfering with necessary industrial and commercial uses. Reeve Plaxton stated. “What we really want is to control the location of such plants. Experts from the Department of Energy and Resources told us we can not have 100% safety with such gases. but We can make certain that future plants are far enough away from a built-up residential area to avoid the risk of loss of life and property. It's Just a case of geography.” Councillor Eric Handbury ‘asked what constitutes a body ‘that can approach council with _requests and was answered by _the mayor that anybody may approach council, whether a ' single person or a group. Three-Year Ban For Young Driver A Willowdale youth was pro- hibited from driving for a period of three years when he was convicted of dangerous driving and failing to remain at the scene of an accident last week in magistrate's court. Magistrate Russell Pearse also fined John R. Peacey, 19, a total of $250 on the two charges. Suspension on the dangerous driving charge called for a man- datory six months, with the ad- ditional prohibition of two years being added by the magistrate as provided under the Criminal Code. The final six months was for the con- viction on the second charge. R. Bowes, who runs a service station on Highway 7 at Duf- ferin, told the court he had seen the accused in a car on his lot, March 7. At that time. he noticed someone lying under the wheel of Peacey’s car. The girl testified that Peacey had taken her home first fol- lowing the incident. No further mention was made of the al- legedly injured youth.

In a letter tabled last week from the Department of Ener- gy and Resources, it was re- ported that grants up to 50 per cent, would be available for parks where camping and pic- nic facilities were made avail- able, with admission fees com- parable to provincial parks.

Council also considered a revised 1? ire agreement with Stouffville Fire Brigade and agreed to most of its changes. Among the changes agreed to were $100 for the fust houn compared with $68, and $70 for each additional hour, instead of $32. Markham Township Encouraged In Financing Centennial Park Plan Council felt the proposed increase for the latter was excessive, but as few fires required the additional time, agreed to it. it also felt that the standby fee of $550 up from $300, should be reduced to $500. Council also met with M. Smith Unionville, area fire chief, and agreed to adopt the follow- ing in the Unionville agreement: increase standby fee to $2.00 1per man; pay the volunteers for ‘12 practices a year at the rate ‘of $3.00 for each practice at- Itended; authorized the chief to requisition up to $500 a year ‘for normal equipment pur- lchases, with a limit of $100 1per requisition. Each requisi- tion would have to be approved by the township treasurer. Councillor Charles Hooverl reported upon preliminaryl negotiations with O.

Next week they will decide on policies so that more detailed planning al- ternatives may be worked out by Planner Max Bacon and his staff. In presenting the survey and analysis, Mr. Bacon said an official plan must be has- ed upon an adequate survey of the physical. engineering and social character of the area concerned. The report under discussion was con- cerned with the most fundaâ€" mental of these characters: the ones which have to be decided upon before the more detailed proposals can be worked out. Richmond Hill, the report stated, is faced with a criti- cal question. whether to con- tinue growing, for which lt will soon require additional space, or whether to try to resist further growth and consolidate that which has occurred so rapidly during the past 15 years. It is recommended in the report that the town consider a plan (to take care of the next 20 years) with a phased program for growth closely related to its financial capac- ity for building the neces- sary public works. led that there is The possibilities for re- sisting growth appear slim, continues the report, it will almost certainly occur any- way and better the town have control of it, than try to ignore it. This growth should be so closely control- Consultant Asks Direction For Plan $499.50 deterior ation in the town's financial circumstances and the pro- portion of assessment from single family residential de- velopment is reduced. In discussing this section of the report, it was agreed that such growth should not be undertaken at the expense of present ratepayers. For purposes of the plan, the report continued, this growth should be envisaged as meaning the eventual ur- banization of all the areas between Bathurst Street and Bayview Avenue, south from Elgin Mills Road to the vicin- ity of Weldrlck Road and Ob- servatory Lane. Additional industrial land is recom- mended east of Yonge Street and south of the present town boundary. To service this area with a sewage disposal system, that proposed by Proctor and Redfern in 1962 is recom- mended. (Ed. note: South of Weldrick Road in Vaughan Township.) The report says this should be phased with priority being given to the Harding Park trunk sewer in order that the proposed industrial area can be made available for development as soon as possible.

Several mem- bers of planning board and council took exception to these recommendations. 884-4464-5 The consultants‘ report also suggests the standard of loeal roads be brought up to that in the Griffin and Rosedale Manor Subdivisions with all new subdivisions being pro- vided with roads at this standard. Final recommendation is that the neighborhood and planning district system be adopted as a basis for pro- vision of schools. parks and other facilities and when feasible these are co-ordin- ated into district centres and sub centres. Mr. Bacon also reported to planning board that the sign by-law would be ready for its next meeting, April 13.
