Two more nesidents of the area in question appeared beâ€" fore council, one for the nurs- ing home and the other not against it but against contribut- ing any tax money towards the reconstruction of Fog Road.

The question is whether the; township will take it upon it-‘ self and the taxpayers money to reconstruct the road and bring it up to provincial standards. Estimated cost to do the work :13 $80,000. It appeared the problem would be solved one way or an other last week when Councillor Gordon Rowe drafted a resolu- tion which proposed: That the council ask the York-Oshawa and District Health Unit to consider grant- ing of a permit to enable the nursing home to commence operation and have the toma- ship accept responsibility for “maintaining the road until the completion of the 1970 spring breakup.“ It had been pointed out at an earlier meeting that a renova~ ting permit had already been issued by the township’s build- ing inspector and that a licence to operate the 50-bed nursing home is the authority of the county health unit. ' The unit has held off issuing the licence strictly out of cour- tesy to the council which had no actual authority in the matter. Considerable discussion about the pros and cons of the Rou'e- resolution followed its presenta- tion and centred around the township agreeing to "maintain the road.” The final result was no re t as Councillor B‘owe deci ed to withdraw his resolution “and present it again at the next council meeting." The two delegations -â€" the first by A1 Romnson â€" plump- ed for the nursing home. MI.

Neighborhood Notes A letter presented to council from the operators of the nurs- ing home said that they were not in a position financially to assume responsibility for recon- structing the road due to the capital costs in renovating the home. Deputy-reeve Ken Mactag- gart stressed the dire need for the nursing home in the town- ship and “we’ve got to do some- thing quick to get it operating. The nursing home owners ob- viously have no funds to com- plete the road Work.” Councillor Margaret Britnell said that the council had to be concerned with its own tax- payers as well pointing out that the nursing home operators "are asking us to subsidize what is basically a commercial venture.“ Councillor Rowe observed simply that “there is a crying need for such a service in the township.” 1970 Dog Licences are now due and payable.

Winn Your snowmobile is probably insured under a standard automobile policy as approved by the provincial government and used by all insurance companies. Under this standard policy your insurance company “shall not be liable for ‘bodily injury to or death of any person occurring while the automobile IS BEING USED IN ANY RACE OR SPEED TEST”. The growing popularity of snow vehicle racing and speed contests at Winter carnivals and other community outings exposes snowmobile owners and drivers to personal liability imposed by law. It doesn’t matter what company you are insured in â€" the standard policy is used by all insurance com- panies, not just this insurance company. This note of caution is extended to all snow vehicle owners as a public service. If in doubt of your position, we suggest you discuss this vitally important matter with your insurance agent. For your own sake, don’t engage in racinz or speed tests. CAUTION TO SNOWMOBILE OWNERS Willowdale â€" Neil G.
