They will then make reports and recommenda- tions on their pollution project to Newmarket and East Gwi1~ limbury Councils. Newinarket Mayor Tom Sur- geoner pledges support of his town. “If every 10-yearvold child in Canada was doing the same thing this country would be a clean place to live within two years" he said. East Gwillimbury Deputy- reeve Ray Twinney promised to drive the garbage truck on the big clean up day. THE “I am surprised that grade 5 students are the ones to open our eyes to the serious pollution problem in the community." he said.

Thornhill. on behalf of Matjon Properties Limited. Mr. Miklas is the former engineer of Markham Township. Members agreed to advise the firm to go ahead with plan- ning work so that a subdivision agreement could be recommen- ded to council. In the meantime. the planners are going to work on their study of the township to determine what areas are to be recom- mended to council and the De- partment of Municipal Affairs for estate home development under the new Official Plan. Chairman Michael Cassidy of Oak Ridges said the board will have to take some field trips as soon as the ground is dry enough. The board has a target limit of approvals for about 300 homes a year, Mr. Cassidy said. Reeve Stewart Burnett said the board so far is only up to about 150 units. including the most recent proposal of Matjon Properties Limited. Since con- struction in these developments would take place over a period of three or more years, the board was still a long way from the 300 units per year figure, he said. Deputy-reeve Norman Bar-‘ nard wondered what regional government was going to do to the Official Plan and such things as the 300 unit estate home limit. If people start drawing new municipal lines, this Matjnn property may not be in Whitchurch anymore.

Previously a preliminary plan for 119 lots was submitted. It was an area of rolling land with several hills and valleys. some parts having a view up to 20 miles. Particularly on the west side the property is dense- ly wooded. It drains into the Rouge River. he said. ....,_.5. These factors, plus the land being of only marginal use for farming. made the area an ideal location for estate development. Developers in Whitchurch Township pay a municipal fee of $500 per lot when plans of ‘ subdivision are finalized and ap« proved by the Minister of Muni- cipal affairs. In addition there is a township fee for pre-enâ€" gineering services of $10 for each of the first 10 lots. and $2.50 for each additional lot. There is no application fee. The Matjon proposal is for each lot to have its own drilled well and septic tank. Existing wells and a test well have each had an adequate flow of water for several houses. One well supplies a family home and the requirements of more than 60 horses, the planning board was told. The land includes a riding stable which is planned to con- tinue in operation along half the Yonge Street frontage. The proposal is for part of Lots 71 and ’72 on Concession 1. The stable is rented to Well known horseman Dick Day, the plan- ning board was bold. Bridle paths are proposed within the subdivision and between two properties owned by the To- ronto Hunt Club.

Twenty-two members of the Beynon clan had a happy time on April 12 when they had a family reunion at the home of Dr. and Mrs. Hugh Coult-hard of Weston. Mr. Lewis started it, all by leaving his place at the press table and asking permission to speak to council. He was backed up by two neighbors of the Bremner Limited dump on Highway 48, Keith Hutchinson and E d w a r d Brathwaite of RR 2, Stan!!- ville. Mr. and Mrs. Everett Phillips visited friends in Shelbourne during the week. “I expect the dump will be closed within a month. if for no other reason than by the sheer will of the people."

"I live right beside it and figure 50,000 gallons of this waste was dumped on Friday," he said. visited Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Levison of Shanty Bay on Sat- urday. and on Sunday had all the members of their family home for the day. Mr. Hutchinson said he has been counting the trucks and figuring their carrying capacity. At the rate the stuff was going in. the area was going to be all conta- minated. “People are getting to the point now where they’re sort of fed up. Offi- cials of the municipality feel like dirty faced little bnys going to court with provin- cial support." he said. Mr. and Mrs. Wilbert Jen- nings, Gerald Jennings, Aurora, and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Rick- ward. Oak Ridges attended the annual divine service of Mason- ic District 7. Toronto,_ held in the Church of Atonement (Ang- lican) on April 12, Guest speaker was Rabbi Stuart Ros- enberg of Beth Tzedec Congre- gation, Toronto. Several in our community are not feeling too well at present, and we send best wishes to Mrs. Ray Jennings. Mrs. James Gill- ham. and Mrs. Maurice Beynon and to any who are not up to par. ' Many friends in our commun- i¢y extend sincere sympathy to Mrs. W. M. (Moff) Cockburn, Newmarket, and her family in the sudden passing of a loving husband and father on April 15. For many years Mr. Cockburn was provincial agricultural rep- resentative for the County of York. "Not very much. What are you doing? Council efforts are laughable,” said Mr. Lewis. The reeve asked Mr. Lewis. “What did you do when you were on council?” Deputy-reeves B a r n a r d charged Councillors Ratcliff and Marlyn Baker were hold- ing meetings the rest of the council didn’t know anything about. Then matters started to get sorted out a bit. Councillor Baker fiaid he'd done a lot of research on the dumping and admitted he probably didn't know very much about all the techni- calities yet. But he had a motion to propose. either for immediate passage or for consideration at the next council meeting. “We all want something done. The question is . . . how?" said Reeve Burnett. Mr. Baker's resolution was seconded by Mr. Ratcliff. He said its purpose was to com- pletely ascertain the danger of pollution. get more exten- sive drilling tests done around the dump. and in- volve the Holland Valley Conservation Authority. Since the meeting with Ontario Director of Waste Management John Heaman. it was evident the fluid wastes being dumped were toxic. said Councillor Baker. He proposed council request provincial authorities to drill under the dump. .consult with the Holland Valley Con- servation Authority, and have HVCA observers on the site during the drilling. Mr. Ratcliff then proposed a motion. this one seconded by Councillor Betty van Nos- trand. The motion requested the township solicitor to request the co-nperation of the On- tario Water Resources Com- mission senior solicitor in taking legal action against industrial waste dumping in Whitchurch under the On- tario Water Resources Act and Whitchurch Township bylaws. Councillor Ratcliff said he was advised there were reguâ€" lations which should cover the dumping problem if they were enforced. After some discussion of the. existing laws. this motion was also passed unanimously. In addressing council. Mr. Lewis said he was represent- ing a number of people liv- ing around the Bremnor Lid. dump. He said he was dele- gated to ask the council if the municipality could stop the dumping of industrial fluid wastes at the Highway 48 site. Reeve Burnett said he couldn't answer that, the council would have to look into it. citizens had decided to call a public meeting for all resi- dents of Stoufiville. Mark- ham Township, Markham Town and Whitchurch Town- ship. He said among those esâ€" pecially invited were Minis- ter of Energy and Resources Management George Kerr. Ontario Liberal Opposition Leader Robert Nixon, On- tario New Democratic Party Leader Donald MacDonald. York North MLA William Hodgson. York Centre MLA Donald Deacon. York Simcoe MP John Roberts, York Countv Warden Gordon Cook.Stouffville Reeve Ken- neth Laushway. Reeve Bur- nett md Councillor Baker. At the April 28 meeting :ach platform guest is invi- aed to speak for five minutes on the dump question. A question and answer period is to follow. Mr. Lewis is to act, as chairman. “'l‘lis problem is the con- cernof everyone." says Mr. Lews. “Many people don't undorstand just how tragic it vould be if Stoufiville's artvsian well water supply berame polluted from waste pmetration at this site." ‘Testing means nothing.“ h: said. “What if the test p'oves positive. Then it's 00 late."
