But the battle-lines in the bus-ling debate have been drawn. The committee of adjustment earlier rejected an application by the owner of the land. Wil- liam Cutting. to sever the 12 acres for the purpose of selling to Langdon's because it felt such an operation would not be compatible with the area. Mr. Cutting has appealed the committee's decision to the Ontario Municipal Board which will hold a hearing. Result: Members of the committee VA.) yum... It was Mr. Mactaggart's es-‘ pousal of the Langdon propos- al that brought Mr. Lemasur- ier jumping to his feet. He accused the deputy-reeve of a "conflict of interest“ in the matter because Mr. Mactag-l gart is an employee of the Langdon Coach Lines. “You have no right to participate in any voting for or against the bus line.” he said. “Take a look at the Municipal Act. You work for Langdon‘s and therefore you have a con- flict of interest and are obviouva not eligible to participate in any decis- ions." Deputy-reeve Mactaggart re- futed the charge stating he couldn’t “see any conflict of interest." pointing out that he only drove bus for Langdon‘s in Vaughan Township. “I continue to challenge your right to vote on any res- olution pertaining to this mat- ter," pursued the flushed Mr. Lemasurier. “Read your King Hassle Explodes Over Terminal Site 2 Comm.

The resolution to accept Ontario County's application for participation was present- ed by Markham Township Reeve Stewart Rumble when the health unit brought in its annual report for 1969 and estimated budget for 1970. A proposal that Ontario County be incorporated in the York- Oshawa District Health Unit met with little enthusiasm at a meeting of York County Council earlier this month. The budget. estimated at $1‘318.499.83 for 1970, was presented by Medical Officer of Health Dr. Owen Slinger- land, but 75 percent will be taken care of through grants from the Department of Health. Of the remainder, York County’s share is 63.24 percent â€"â€" $206,896.48â€"and Oshawa's share is 36.76 per- cent â€" $120,264.31.

But Mr. Lemasurier was not through yet. He flogged Deputy-reeve Mactaggart for “wearing two hats” pointing to the fact that both Mr. Mactaggart and Reeve Cook were members of the township‘s planning board responsible for approving the Official Plan “which designates the area in question as resiâ€" dential and not commercial which the Langdon proposal would result in it becoming." Mr. Lemasurier is himself a me_mber of the planning board‘ as well as the committee of adjustment. Mr. Mactaggart. he said. favâ€" ored leaving the land residen- tial in planning board but then appeared before the com- ‘mittee of adjustment “attempt- [ing to influence our committee to change the very designation that planning board has put on it from residential to commer- cial." , York County is about 150,- 000, the City of Oshawa a- bout 90,000 and Ontario County about 100.000 for a total of 340,000. which is considered ideal by the pro- Vince. Deputy-reeve Mactaggart ob- jected to Mr. Lemasurier’s ac- cusation ‘pointing out that the Official Plan has not “been of- fically accepted yet.‘ ' Mr. Lemasurier ended his harnngue accusing the council of “political inter- ference" in the committee of adjustment which he said was meant to operate independent of council. Councillors denied this stat- ing that they had a right to their opinion on a given mat: ‘ter. They also pointed out that gthe Langdon application was “the first time council had opâ€" posed a committee of adjust- ‘ment decision. In September. 1969, the firm of Stevenson and Kel- logg. management consult- ants. were engaged to rec- ommend streamlining of the administration of the York- Oshawa District Unit. and its recommendations are under consideration. The county now has three medical officers of health, and Oshawa has one. but un- der the recommended re-or- ganization two would be en- ough to serve the entire un- it. “We are going ahead with our own planning. If On- tario comes in it will take several months to integrate". he declared. Asked if York County would be affected financially or in services provided.

Gertrude Tucker replied that if there was no VON, the health unit would have to supply the service.

The report stated there are 25 licensed nursing homes with about 850 beds in York County. and five more. to supply another 176 beds. are propOsed or under construction. In Oshawa two nursing homes are proposed to supply 137 beds. Dr. Slingerland pointed out that the VON cares‘for many chronically ill people. as county hospitals do not have room for these patients. If it were not for the VON. he said. “The community would be 100 percent liable for bedside home nursing care."
