He said he based his findings large- ly on Mrs. Scaiffe's testimony whom he found to be a “very creditable witness." Constable Seeley denied the slapping and said the fight erupted when he went to arrest Scaiffe for the garbage pail in~ cident. lSeeIey- Scaiffe Case The five charges arose out of a brawl that developed at the Scaiffe home last December 3 when Constable Seeley went with another Whitchurch offic- er, Frank Munroe. to serve a warrant for non-payment of fines on Mr. Scaiffe. Evidence presented earlier was that Scaiffe paid the fine to Constable Munroe and that a fight developed between Seeley and Mr. Scaiffe as the officers were leaving the premises. When Mrs. Scaiffe tried to in- tervene she received a black eye from a punch by Seeley. Mr. Scaiffe claimed that. while he was on the veranda of the home Seeley slapped him and in retaliation he threw a gar- bage pail at the officer. He also dismissed an assault charge against Mrs. Scaiffe laid by Constable Seeley. A similar charge against Mr. Scaiffe was dismissed last January. Two charges of common as- sault and one of assault causing bodily harm laid against Whit- church Police Constable Ross Seeley by Mr. and Mrs. Fred Scaiffe of Lake Wilcox were dismissed in Newmarket Pro- vincial Court by Judge Claire Morrison.

Federal grants were frozen last year until Transport Minister Paul Hellyer’s housing task force makes its recommendations. There will be no provincial money for an urban renewal study of the Lake Wilcox area â€"â€" at least for the moment, Whitchurch Council learned. April 15. The estimated cost of a Lake Wilcox urban renewal study is $16,000, 50 percent. of which is supposed to be paid by Ottawa and 25 percent of which by Queen’s Park. Mr. McKeough urged the township to con- tinue negotiating with the Metro Conservation Authority which has indicated a willingness to take over the lake area to protect it from pollu- tion. At a meeting“ held March 10. the authority proposed that Whitchurch turn over any town- ship owned lands to it for management.

I say better to them than to anybody else,” said Coun~ cillvor Betty Van Nostrand. She said the township land would provide the conservation authority with “a starting point" from which to make further improve- ments. Council voted to forward Mr. McKeough's letter to the authority for their comments and suggestions. Lake Wilcox with its unserviced summer cottages, many of which have been converted into all year round use. is a problem for Whit- church’s development plans. The township’s Official Plan, now waiting OMB approval. labels it a “problem area“. Until an urban renewal scheme can be com- pleted, it says, a halt to any further development should be called. In the meantime, it urges York County to continue to “condemn structures unfit for human habitation and lawfully permit no new buildings . or immediately provide any additional water supply and road improvements which would make land use and road patterns more permanent."
