Mr. French insisted. Farmers Treated The Same As Others Similarly, he contended that the paving of Bathurst Street was essentially to provide a bypass around Richmond Hill and that people generally in the townShip did not receive a great deal of benefit from it. “But the people generally in the township, including Mr. Clure and residents of Maple. are on the same foot- ing. He is treated the same as others in the township so he is not entitled to any re- lief whatsoever. He receives the same benefit as other people generally."

M-r. French in- sisted that Mr. McClure and others like him would prob- ably benefit more than others in the 'township be- cause it attracted industry and development to the township and his lands in particular, on Highway 27. could well be in a future de- velopment area. In his questioning of the township’s roads accountant J. Plunkett. whom Mr. Bre- win had called to the stand. Mr. French elicited the in- formation that of 1964 costs of $30,000 for resurfacing of gravel roads in the township. approximately 90% of this amount was spent on rural as opposed to subdivision roads: that 90% of the $20,- 500 spent that year for patching of gravel roads was spent on rural roads and that 90% of the $6,000 spent on ditches and drains was on rural roads, as was 90% of the $9,000 cost of weed CENTRE Sat ‘30} N DECEMBER 24, SUNDAY, 7.30 ' pm Teston United Church Can- : dlelight Service (Rural).

Another 5.57% of the budget went for instructional supplies, slightly less than the provincial average for small boards of 6.2%. And in spite of the fact that the big yellow school buses have become more and more evident in the area, only 2.45% of the budget went to pay for this. compared to the average of 3.7% for other boards of Next biggest bile out of the pie went to plant maintenance and operation and administra- tion costs â€" 14.37%. slightly less than provincial average of 15.4%. York Central Costs Teachers' Salaries Take Up 60% Provincial Grants 37% In 1966 Salaries of teachers took the largest bite out of York Central District High School Board’s budget last year â€"â€" 59.43 %. This is almost identical to the 60.2% average spent for this purpose by all school boards in Ontario with less than 10,000 students. Mr. Plunkett, under quesâ€" tioning by Mr. French, testi- fied that he had, in 1964, apportioned costs of road maintenance 68% to rural roads and 32% urban. Questioned by the chair- man as to the township's policy on subdivision roads, he advised that developers were required to bring roads within subdivisions up to the township standard and they were then assumed by the township. cutting and spraying. With respect to costs of snow fencing and snow plow- ing. Mr. Plunkett testified that 80% of this was spent on rural roads while about 50% of the costs of sanding and salting was spent on rural roads. With respect to fire fightâ€" ing services. Mr. French conâ€" tended that not only was Mr. McClure treated as others in the township, but that special large size tanker trucks had been acquired to truck water to fires in rural it for instructional supplies, htly less than the provincial rage for small boards of 70. And in spite of the fact ; the big yellow school buses e become more and more lent in the area, only 2.45% the budget went to pay for . compared to the average 3.7% for other boards of ques- testi- 1964. road rural lites the largest share. 38.5%. closely followed by Richmond Hill which pays 33.8%. Markham this year has contributed 22.5% and Woodbridge 5.2%. A comparison of these fig- ures with the enrolment by municipalities has long been a source of discussion â€"â€" and dis- content by some ratepayers. Here, Vaughan’s and Richmond Hill’s roles are almost reversed, with Richmond Hill supplying 38.81% of the pupils to the system's schools and Vaughan 32.31%. Markham Township accounts for 24.19% of the stu- dents and Woodbridge 4.69%. This apparent discrepancy is accounted for by the fact the costs between the municipali- ties are apportioned on the bas- is of the assessment in each municipality. Another factor which at the moment‘ throws them further out of line is that the apportioning is based on assessment figures two years old. Therefore.'while the ex- tensive residential development in Markham Township has al- ready added numerous students to the system, the assessment behind these students has not yet been counted in and the other muncipalities must mgke up the difference. These facts have been used by some to bolster their con- tention that Vaughan, for in- stance, would be better to with- draw from York Central and have a high school system of its own. However, with its higher assessment, Vaughan brings a lower percentage of school grant to the system. If it withdrew from York Central it would reâ€" cieve only this lower grant to support its system, whereas by pooling assessment in York Cen- tral, grants are also pooled and evened out. Further, as its students are scattered throughout a large township. Vaughan costs York Central the larg- est share of bussinz costs. Richmond Hill students for instance. get little if any bus service and Markham Township students are also more in consolidated areas which do not require bus services. All these facts and figures were gathered into a small brochure prepared by staff members for members of the high school board and present- ed the information in capsule form so they could pass it on to interested ratepayers and others. N0 POLICE EXEMPTION Exemption for police costs did not fall within the pur- view of Section 37. Mr. French stated firmlyi Police protection was available wherever and whenever it was needed. he said with radio equipped cruisers cov- ering the township daily. Mr. McClure was subject to losses, from the stealing of an ear of corn to cattle and other property and was given the same protection against this, and had the same forces at his disposal to apprehend criminals as all others in the township. “The minute you find he is getting what other people are, the act doesn‘t apply to him." he concluded‘ Mr. French also denied that the township has acted in bad faith. In the township view. affirmed by the County Court judge, there was no requirement to pass the bylaw allowing the ex- emption requested, he said. areas where no hydrants were available. 6369 Yonge St., Willowdale (1 block south of Steeles) between Sheppard Ave. and North Bay that is WE DO CARE FOR YOU IN SICKNESS AND IN HEALTH YORK CENTRAL HOSPITAL L. & S.
