Arnold Weig- el was introduéed to the ‘com- munity at a reception in St. Paul‘s Lutheran Church; Rich- mond Hill. It was reported that at last week's meeting of the finance and general purpose committee. representatives of the CN had asked that the CN be permitted to dump garbage from the mar- shalling yard after midnight. It was explained that all gar- bage within the yard is picked up and disposed of at night and if this were not permitted. they "might have to acquire an ad- ditional truck and several more containers." The CN was also disturb- ed that they were not being permitted to dump liquid wastes either in the dump Bulk of discussion at Mon- day night's short meeting cen- tred around the dump. VOL. 87, NO. “Hardy perennial, blooms all year, extremely fragrant” would make a good botanical description of Vaughan Township’s dump problem. The fact that council recently tried to change the dump from a night blooming variety to something else has added to the difficulties. If this schedule is fol- lowed reasonably closely there will be sufficient water and pressure to en- sure that- all lawns and flowers in hhe town can survive the continuing dry weather, the mayor claims. The suggested schedule for watering allots Mon- day and Thursday even- ings to that area north of Crosby, east of Yonge; Tuesday and Friday to the area south of Crosby. east of Yonge: and Wednesday and Saturday to the area west of Yonge. When numbers of resi- dents insist in using the water on nights not on their schedule other areas, particularly the northwest section of town, on the height of land. do not have sufficient water pressure to work lawn sprinklers. Residents on the fifth and sixth floors of apartment buildings find that not. even a trickle of water runs from their taps when the demand for water for lawns reaches this peak. Water consumption in Richmond Hill hit an all- time high last weekend, ac- cording to Mayor Thomas Broadhurst. who again ap- peals to local residents to voluntarily observe the sug- gested schedule for lawn and garden watering. On June 13 water usage was 1.440.000 gallons which increased to 1,987,600 gal- lons on Saturday and to 2.039.000 on June 20.

It was further advised that the prohibition of the dumping of liquid waste had been made at the suggestion of the Ontario Water Resources Commission which had warned of the possi- bility that such liquids might pollute the local water supply. Although it had withstood this pressure to amend its brand It was also pointed out that the hours from 8 pm to 8 am had been recom- mended for lawn watering. according to recognized authorities who claim that using sprinklers during the heat of the day is not only wasteful but can have injurious effects to the grass which the owner is trying to save. Only if the sprinklers are allowed to run all day, the lawn be- comes soaked and the exâ€" cess water runs off into the ditches and roadways, another instance of waste of precious water. or in the West Don Sewage Treatment Plant. Council advised the CN repâ€" resentatives, h o w e v e r, that council had enacted legislation (at last week's meeting) pro- hibiting dumping after 10 pm because residents of Maple had complained about the noise made by garbage trucks at night. This waéite occurs also when bricks and paved driveways are washed off. while other residents of town are deprived of water because of falling pressure. it was pointed out. With reasonable co- operation from all areas in town, the mayor assures residents there will be plenty of water for every- body, but none to waste. A reserve is always main- tained for firefighting. ficials point out that if everyone voluntarily re- stricts lawn water to the suggested schedule, everyâ€" one will get a fair share of the supply and every- one's lawns will be enabled to survive the drought, not the favored few where de- mand has no visible effect on water pressure. In ef- fect these residents are robbing their neighbors of what is rightfully theirs. it is claimed. His wifc is daughter of Dr Ratepayers at the council meeting were unable to attempt any judgment of the relative merits of these propositions as no one seemed at all clear of the financial picture of the dump, whether it was making any profit. what charges were. who set them. etc. Since early last fall. the township has had a dump manager and has rentefi. a machine or machines and operators as required to keep the garbage covered. For the first few months of this expenses at the dump were evidently slightly in excess of income. However, early in May when Metro Toronto closed its dumps. the rush was on and facilities have been strained to keep up. The complicating factor is that no one knows how long‘ this rush will continue, depend? ing on what Metro does next. 1 but with an inspector hired to supervise all aspects of garbage disposal in the entire township.

Judge Sweeney estimated that such a service could be operated to serve the whole of the county for between $12,000 and $15,000 per year.
