14 Thornhill and PHONE 889-3190 T hornhill Trustees Negotiating Agreement With Vaughan The three trustees of the Police Village of Thornhill Were returned to office by acclamation .November 21 when no other resident of the vil- * ‘Iage appeared at the nomination meeting at Thornhill Public Library to contest the seats. Even the three trustees themselves were not at the meeting. Trustee Eric Cole was out of town on business but had indicated his willing- ness to run for office again. L. S. li’arnica of 10 Paul Street nominated him for the post. An electronics engineer with Phillips Indus- tries in Leaside, Mr. Cole has completed two prev- ious terms as a trustee. First to be re-nominated was Reginald J. Robinson, an account executive who lives at 23 Thornridge Drive. He was proposed by former Trustee Wm. E. Judges. Mr. Robinson has served as a trustee since 1963 and will now enter on his fifth term. This year’s chairman of the board, Frank E. Tucker was nominated by Mr. Robinson. Mr. Tucker is retired and lives at 8 Eliza Street. He has served eight terms as a trustee at various times. In October of this year Vaughan Township submitted to the trustees a new draft agreement for their consideration. Under the new agree- ment, there would be no deduction from the township gene 'al purpose rate. which includes rates for schools and roads, allowed to ratepayers of the police village. The change as proposed would mean that the residents of the village would be charged the same rates as other residents of the township with the township assuming responsibility for the maintenance and construction of all roads within the village. The township would make additional levies. over and above those charged throughout the township. for such things as the repair and maintenance of sidewalks, collection of garbage, etc. A similar proposed agreement was sent at Congratulations to Jim and‘held its monthly meeting No-1 glllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllllllll'llllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll-P lllllllllllllllllllll'llllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllullflnlmmumlllllumlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllummlIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllIllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll'F Socially Speaking in Thornhill THE LIBERAL. Richmond Hill. Ontario. Thursday. Nov. 30. 1967 District News "The Liberal" is always pleased to publish items of interest contributed by its readers in the Thornhill area. Our representative in Thornhill is Mrs. Jo Cruise who may be reached by phoning 889-3190 Get Acclamation the same time to the trustees of the Police Village of Maple. At the Thornhill nomination meeting. how- ever. trustees indicated that no decision had been lnacle on the matter and the agreement was pres- ently in the hands of their solicitor. . As the village trustees concern themselves with very little other than roads and streets ~â€"- and for the most part rent township equipment for that â€" the new agreement would leave little reason for their continued existence. For the past several years the Department of Municipal Affairs. ill its encouragement of larger units of municipal administration. had refused to accede to the incorporation of police villages. At the nomination meeting Trustee R. J. Robinson complained of lack of co-operation on the part of Vaughan in carrying out projects the trustees proposed. One such was the drainage scheme for the watercourse back of Keith Seeds’ property. Mr. Robinson stated that the trustees had had money in the budget for two years to do this but had been unable to get any action from the township on it. The Thornhill Trustees called a meeting November 4 of various bodies and organizations interested ill recreation needs and facilities to discuss the area's future in this regard. The meeting was held at the Metro Conser- vation Authority premises on Highway 7 and several recreational needs were suggested. Among these were all indoor arena, an outdoor skating area with artificial ice. enclosing of the swimming pool to make it useful all year round. improve- ment of skating facilities at the Oakbank Pond and provision of a small park area surrounding it. walkways, and a meeting place for senior citizens. Cost estimates are being obtained by var- ious individuals for some of the suggested pro- jects and it is expected the trustees will call a second meeting in the new year to discuss them.
