Mr. Sweezey said It was desirable that local planning boards should co-operate ful- ly with trustees in the mat- ter of having school lands set aside in subdivision plans. But this was a matter for the judgement of the planning board members, he said. Department of Municipal Affairs Senior Planner Sweezey said school boards have the power of expropria- tion to obtain school sites. He said the province also re- quires that schools boards must have capital funds available for needed schools before the Minister of Muniâ€" cipal Affairs approves sub- division plans submitted by the municipality. Planning board decided to recommend the application to council without the pre- viously followed stipulation that the county school board must have been able to ac- quire needed school sites at acceptable prices. Instead land is to be zoned and re- served for high school, pub- lic school, and separate school uses in the planning board's recommendations to council.

These schools would serve many other subdlvisions. it was said. Mr. Sweezey said the municipality could adopt a policy requiring that lands reserved for school sites could not be used for any other purpose for a certain number of years. school site prices.

Church News Mr. Rumble said the last time the airport is_sue came up, the big objection came from the surrounding resi- dents. not the sch001 board. “Some of the neighbors to the airport don‘t agree with Mr. Beveridge‘s definition of noise," he said. Reeve Rumble remarked that the new flight paths would send the aircraft right over his house. But he did not oppose board members who favored the airport zon- ing change. The consensus was that Buttonville was the best private airport in Can- ada and an asset to the municipality. An extensiVe report., plans and maps of the airport site and the new runways were supplied to planning board. Mr. Beveridge said the noise contours indicated only one farmhouse would be in what. was considered a seriously high noise area in the pro- pOSed runway flight paths. Mr. Beveridge said jet air- planes have been banned from the airport because they are too noisy. He said top international consultants were retained to measure and plot the noise contours for the airport under new provincial regulations issued in October. He said the ex- perience gained at the Mal- ton airport area was now available to government de- partments and had given rise to the regulations. “First we went to see the Great Hall. It had blue rugs, not only on the floor. but on the walls. I knew I'd like it better if I went on, so I did. “Second, we saw the auditor- ium. It was decorated in or- ange. There was a large screen. A m0vie was shown later about spacemen and their space ships. “Next we saw a man who was called the electrical magician. He made people’s hair stand up by static electricity.

Homes will vary in distance from the streets from 20 feet to 35 feet, ac- cording to a predetermined plan. Representatives Sam Wilson and Allan Wright of Costain Estates Ltd. said the idea was to eliminate the corridor effect along streets and to provide a grouping effect for the homes. The development could also be better adjusted to the terrain. The originally approved lot sizes are not reduced. Planning Board Chairman Napier Simpson Jr. said the main concern was that the school board should be satis- fied about Buttonville School. Approval of a variation in setbacks for the 324-lot Bay- view Fairways Subdivision was favored by Planning Director Hidaka and recom- mended to council by Plan- ning board.

Neighborhood Notes Solicitor Blainey said the late owner of the firm was a pioneer in estate lot develop- ment in the township. His death had interrupted the firm's affairs and the estate managers had no previous knowledge of new regulations being prOCessed on the basis of two acre lots. He said the firm had ex- tensive holdings not yet sub- divided, but these lands were provided with main access roads off Don Mills Road. Ex- perience was that one acre lot development was success- ful. Two acre lots were tried in 1956 and didn't go. ments was heard from Wil- liam Blainey. QC. solicitor for Richard Person Realty Ltd. This firm owns proper- ty now described as perk lands in the Cachet Subdiv- ision area. including Button- waod Golf Club. This land is included under the Devil’s Elbow Secondary Plan the township council has already sent to the Department of Municipal Affairs. Planning Director Hidaka said it was unlikely prov- incial authorities would app- rove anything less than the two acre lots now required throughOut Ontario. Never- theless the planning board agreed to recommend the firms request for one acre lots because in this case it is to complete a development already started on that basis. @E®flfl Correspondent: Mrs. Frances Purves 526 Can-Mlle Road Phone 884-2552 CARRVILLE listen here: Gordan Sinclairl what ,5; to say ? main Individual views make for more intere'sfing listening . which is why CFRE is On the air in zhefirstplac'e... in first place.
