The building was sold last October to Antonio S. D‘Anato for 550500 but George Pal. agent for Mr. D’Anato. advised that his client did not understand the procedures and difficulties con- nected with the usage for which he intended the building. Vaughan Township Planning Board consid- ered the application for the banquet and dance hall in November but having regard to the ultim- ate development of lands in the general area, did not approve of it. Presently zoned agricultural‘ it is expected that the property will ultimately become part of an industrial area. Township Planning Director John Dewar advised "The Liberal". The planningr board had considered the use premature. he said. and had refused the rezoning request “without prejudice to a future application." meaning that it would be reconsidered at a later date. In speaking before council. Mr. Pal stressed that there was a great demand for this type of facility, particularly among ethnic groups and that there was a large concentration of Italians in the development between Finch and Steeles Avenue. He mentioned that when a similar establishment, Murray House. had located on Steeles Avenue. “there was nothing there but farm land." but that the area is now built up and the facility had been a real asset.

"I appreciate that we are getting the $32,000, but this is just our legal c0515 and we are getting a real hosing," ob- jected Mr. Williams. Mr. Williams insisted tool? that council should see final" plans, including the road pata tern to be laid down after the ' dump is complete. He pointed‘ out that the dump site would cut off Eighth Avenue which runs south from Woodbridge and that Metro's proposed re- alignment of Steeles Avenuew drapping it further south toxl accommodate the dump would ‘also cut off Little Eighth Road. 1 making the area north of the‘ §dump stagnate, Councillor Dalton McAr- t thur agreed that the matter of the roads should be dis- cussed and that cOuncil should know when the road is to be put through and 3 who would pay for it. “It should be Metro (who pays for it),” he said. “I’m sure prised that someone didn’t bring this up before." Councillor David Fraser also agreed that Mr. Williams’ point tabout the final road plan was‘ la valid one but noted that the trecommendation being discus- tsed did not involve the apâ€" proval of any road plan but just the rezoning of a parcel of liland. He stressed too that ,lcouncil had agreed last Febru- :l[ary to permit Metro to use the fiparcel for a dump. “This is .just completing a commitment ,twhich we made last February,” 'the said. proval of any road plan but just the rezoning of a parcel of land.

With regard to any extension of the site to the north. as Metro had requested but which last summer‘s OMB decision had refused. Councillor Birkett stated emphatically, “When it comes to talking about the North Thackeray site, there is no way they will extend this ‘south site by an inch.” Mr. Williams complained that Metro Conservation Authority had permitted Metro to dump sewage , sludge on the south site i for some time, that this i was contrary to zoning reg- { ulations and that legal ac- ‘ tion should have been tak- en against them. “Now Higgs (Kenneth Higgs, the conservation authority's di- rector of operations) has the gall to say they will let them take dirt out of the north site.

[and Sonia King, Keele Street Mr. Pal admitted there might be difficulty with water. although the well on the property was said to be capable of producing five gallons per minute, the normal requirement for a resi- dential usage. However. he asked that council give its approval of the banquet hall usage before his client went to the expense of locating a new water source. He suggested too that having invested so much money in the site. Mr. D’Anato might well consider bringing water up from the Edgeley well, below Highway 7. at his own ex- pense. Reeve Brian Bailey enquired if any considv eration had been given to services 'and if the York County Health Unit had been consulted. Council however. remained reluctant to ap- prove the venture with so many unanswered questions. Reeve Bailey pointed out that usage could be considered a highway commercial use which is permitted under the agricultural zoning but doubted that. the Department of Municipal Affairs would approve this for Jane Street which is not a highway but really just a rural road in that section where the property is located. about a quarter mile north of Highway 7.
