Our objection is based on the sad fact that Thorn- hill can only be ruined once and it can never recover as a village from the proposed apartment onslaught. Up to now there has been room in Thornhill for independent living. We have all benefited from the openness of our landscape and the lack of pressure this affords. Why do we fight the traffic battle to live in 'l‘hornhill? We drive the extra distance because 'I‘hornhill is a unique and historic village whose green and open places have not all been planted with homes, no imposition from our town- ship council to‘ force landowners to cut up large lots into tiny ones. If we had wanted to live in the squalor that accompanies overcrowding. we would have remained in the city. Who wants apartments? Does some altruistic group really care about providing housing for people, or is it that the land-owners involved will make more money selling their land for apartment use than selling for any other use? The apartment developers want ‘to build on Yonge Street, not because they really care about providing housing for retired couples in our village, but because existing transpor- tation will make it easier for them to rent their suites. Our efficient, but expedient planning board upholds the right of the three land-owners to sell for this purpose, and the right of the three developers to build. and hundreds of village residents will pay the consequences in lack of privâ€" acy, increased local traffic hazards, serious overcrowding of local public and high schools, etc., etc. ., up, _a_r.l-4:-n We have been. considerably heartened to note that other communities have successfully fought against apartments at the Beaches in Etobicoke, etc. We sincerely believe that it is in the best, interest of the village as a whole to remain an island of quiet living, while the eddies of over-population swirl all around us. ‘ Among the new faces at 'l’hnrnhill Secnndarv \‘chnol this term a~ , , , , . - * I y le those of fourteen new te ch - “ ‘ commels’ggmuiklggztejlg, fII) Zgitlogn 21%;; .tohi'l‘ghtg : [Mm M.
