The board assessed the ap- plications and then sent them on to the various town bodies and local school boards for their comments before making a final decision. The apartment building would be located on the north side of Trayborn Drive between Jacey Anne Drive and the Country Fair Drive-In. It would comprise 60 suites made up of 29 twoâ€"bedrooms, 16 one-bedrooms, 14 bachelor suites, and a superintendent‘s quarters. The bank building Would be located on the northwest cor- ner of Centre Street and New- kirk Road. Planning Administrator Earl Newhall said the apartment building would be located in a proposed multiple residential zone under the new zoning by- law. The area" is presently “It irks me considerably if this is the case." said Mr. Whillans. “Especially when you consider all the apart- ments around town which have just converted without the owner even bothering to obtain permission. D cil‘s attention for years,‘ said Mr. Sayers. “And if this particular rumor mentioned by Mr. Whillans is true perhaps we should suggest council con- 'sider some alleviation for those who do apply legally in 1969‘ Mr. Sayers attended that meeting along with Commit- tee of Adjustment Chairman Howard Jackman.

This is what 'planning board members were seri- ously pondering Tuesday night of last week at their regular meeting. Member Howard Whillans sparked the issue when he said he had been informed “on a second-hand basis that one householder had been charged $800 per suite after he received permission from the committee of adjustment to convert his single family home into a duplex.” Mr. Whillans said he wasn’t aware‘ such a fee was being charged. Planning Administrator Earl Newhall said there was such a free-charging policy.

He noted the structure was “generally quite a favorable proposal although it will be a little shy on open space. The parking will be ample.” Board members agreed an apartment building would be more desirable in the area than piece-meal development. Councillor John MacDiarmid said there would be the school- age population to be consid- ered but felt MacKillop School should be able to handle any increase without too much dif- ficulty. Board members thought also that a bank would be very fav- orably received at Centre Street East and Newkirk Road as it is in the industrial area. The area is presently zoned industrial and the bylaw would require amending to al- low the construction of a bank. Mr. Newhall said the building would be a combined bank- industry structure. The town has not yet been informed what banking firm it will be for. “They don't have to pay a cent and here we force some- one else to pay $800 plus simply because he tries to do right and follow the law." Chairman Harry Sayers concurred stating he felt “council and all of us are negligent in not doing some- thing about these illegal edi- fices." He observed that "there's not much sense having a by- law officer and bylaws to protect residents when we don’t put them into effect. What is the use of passing bylaws." Councillor John MacDiar- mid said he was “in favor of a full time bylaw officer as I've stated before." “We‘ve been drawing this situation regarding non-en- forcement of bylaws to coun- cil's attention for years,“ said Mr. Sayers.

AVERAGE EACH The committee voted unani- mously to al‘Iow the severance of 40 acres from a 100 acre site owned by Gordon Mackay. C. E. Murrell has applied to Whitchurch Township Council for a permit to construct a drive-in theatre complex on this 40 acres. A group of residents opposed to the construction of a drive-in theatre and 30 unit motel com- plex on Don Mills Road and Bloomington Sideroad in'Whit- church Township has appealed the decision made by the com- mittee of adjustment a few weeks ago. C0uncil has sent a letter to Mr. Murrell‘s solicitor, asking for an outline of the stages of development and what they plan to aCComplish. Council‘s solici- tor will examine this and make recommendations for council to consider. If the severance had been granted and no appeal filed, Mr. Murrell was prepared to start construction of the motel complex immediately. He felt it was too late in the year to start the theatre. Many residents of the Pres- ton Lake south shore area got together in May and took a dele- gation to a council meeting to protest the approval of a per- mit for the drive-in. They claimed they were ready to fight the proposed complex either at the Ontario Municipal Board or in the courts. The land is also intended for a 30-unit motel. a restaurant and swimming pool. The en- trance to the theatre would be off Bloomington Sideroad and the entrance to the mo\tel off Don Mills Road. It is not yet known whether or not the Ontario Municipal Board will hold a public hea- - ing on the appeal. and get charged for their trouble." Council two weeks ago de- cided it would consider hir- ing a full time bylaw officer in 1969. Mr. MacDiarmid thought he had a better idea. “Let's just prosecute the persons who are breaking the bylaws. That's the best way. And also let‘s keep pressing for a full time byâ€" law officer who will have the time to do the job properly." Councillor Ivan Mans- bridge said this type of situâ€" ation points up the need for a full time man to police the bylaws. Mr. Sayers attended that meeting along with Commit- tee of Adjustment Chairman Howard Jackman. The board decided to draft a motion “strongly recom- mending that a full time of- ficer be hired by council." lowell. needed broader direc- tion in being assured he had the necessary authority to enforce any decision of the committee of adjustment. They felt a specific bylaw should be drawn up spelling out Mr. Hollowell's authorâ€" ity. Mayor Thomas Broadhurst was of the opinion that there was already sufficient au- thority to enforce the by- laws. Council decided to con- tinue on its present course for the time being and con- sider hiring a full time offi- cer in 1969. It vetoed the. specific bylaw recommenda- tion. Council also considered a recommendation by its fire, ambulance and bylaws com- mittee that two alternatives be considered: Mr. Hollowell to continue in his present capacity and a bylaw be passed specifying his authority.

Boxes What effect would a new 60- suite apartment building have on the enrolment of MacKillop Public School? This question was considered by the Richmond Hill Public School Board at their meeting July 11. The application for such a building. to be located on Tray- born Drive between Jacey Anne Drive and the Country Fair Drive-in, was discussed at the July 9 town planning board meeting. Of the 60 suites. 29 would be two bedroom units. From a survey conducted two years ago, the school board calculates .34 children per two bedroom apart- ment. This figure is far from infallible. however, and they are keeping in mind that the new building might mean a pos- sible 20 pupil addition to the MacKlllop enrolment. “There are still two port- able classrooms and no library at MacKillop," observed Super- intendent Gordon McIntyre. Mr. McIntyre seemed to think they could expect 18 additional pupils at MacKillop if the apart- GRAN ULATED CAMPBELL’S _ 10 oz CANADA N0 EVAPORATED THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill], Ontario, Thursday, July 18, 1968 BAYVIEW 8.

The reductions are part of our continuing program to pro- vide you with the best possible service at the lowest pos- sible cost. These newest long distance reductions are based on the principle of “The later the hour. the bother the bargains.“ And, for Bell Canada customers making calls between any two points in our Ontario, Quebec. Labrador and Northwest Territories serving area there are real bargains. Beginning every evening at 6 p.m.. in time hands of two hours. rates begin to go down for station-to- station calls. Further reductions are effective at 8 pm. 10 pm. and midnight. In fact, our new “After 10" rate for a 10-minute call between any two points in our serving area is generally lower than any calling rate in the world. Our “After Midnight" rate is a real boon for night owls . . . providing the friends that are called are night owls too! If you can make your calls at times when lines have spare capacity, you will benefit from these bargain rates. by W. R.
