She also reported that town council has tried to control tax- es. “I didn’t want the tax bills issued until We had settled our {differences with the province, ‘because once issued the tax ,bills become an encumbrance on the property. The majority of council, however, agreed to issue the tax bills, since they could see some savings in inter- est. Perhaps We have lost a great deal more than we héve saved”, she suggested. The ratepayers present decid- ed they should take definite ac- tion and asked Mrs. Hancey to seek council’s help in getting Minister of Municipal Affairs ,Darcy McKeough to come to Richmond Hill to answer quest- ions by the ratepayers. When asked what is go- ing to happen after Janu- ary 1 when regional gov- ernment comes to York. Mrs. Hancey replied. “I think it is a financial disâ€" aster for Richmond Hill. I have until May 25 to try to get my message across and I will fight until the last possible moment”, she de- clared. She told the meeting that she had been rebuked by a senior “silly” servant for commenting “police state” during the Min- ister‘s presentation of his York Region Plan in Bayview Sec- ondary School on May 6. “When the proposed board of police commissioners contains only two elected representatives. a judge of the county court and two other members appointed by the province, what else is it but a police state? “I was also told that I had no right to criticize the Minister publicly. that I should have gone to him and made my crit- icisms in private,” the councilâ€" lor reported. “Richmond Hill has been giv-‘ en liabilities and we can’t look after them. For instance. we have no equipment for looking after township roads. For two years I have been asking for an economic study. There has been none. What‘s it going to cost? As much as double your pres- lent taxes". she claimed. “If this is my last term of office I‘m going to have my say", she promised‘ (Photo by Stuart's Studio) JACKPOT $500 LIONS HALL RICHMOND HILL LIONS CLUB STARTING TIME -â€" 8 RM.

Markham Township Police‘ said the youths knocked on the door of the home on Don Mills Road, north of Markham Road. They put Mrs. Perkins off her guard by talking about money for the church. They then pushed past Mrs. Perkins. One kept her talking while the other roamed the house. He removed the speaker disc from the telephone and took a purse containing $120.

At Harvey's Drive-In Restau- rant at 1.05 am May 16 an off- duty policeman noticed a gun butt sticking from a man‘s pock- et and called the Richmond Hill Police Station. Markham Township Police were alerted, and went to the drive-in on Yonge Street south of Rich- mond Hill. Arrested for carrying a con- cealed 22-calib1‘e automatic re- volver was Larry Darby, 28, of Main Street, Unionville, a pas- senger in a parked car.

Since the proposed BAIF 400- acre development between Yonge and Bathurst Streets north of Carrville Road will be in the new Town of Richmond Hill after January 1, town coun- cil met with its principals May 13. “The Liberal" learned that members of the local council heard details of the develop- ment plan for the first time. . Outcome of the meeting is that Town Solicitor R. F. Wil- son was instructed to acquire and study all pertinent docu- ments and agreements and after consultation with members of the town’s staff to report to council. The BAIF development had been approved by Vaughan Township Council after months of negotiation, had received ap- proval from Metro Planning Board and was sent on to the Municipal Board, a year ago, for its approval. Richmond Hill lodged a protest with the OMB, based on the density of popula- tion and the fact that the mon- ey spent on a package sewage treatment plan-t north of the Langstaff Sideroad might well be wasted and could be put to better advantage if used in helping provide the proposed OWRC trunk sewer. At his press conference May 6 Minister of Municipal Affairs Darcy McKeough indicated that introduction of the Toronto Centre Plan the day before would free some development plans. which conformed to the overall concept of that plan. The BAIF development may be ‘included in these. ummmuumum“lmuuuuummmumuuum\muuu\\\u\\u\w Reassessment Results $39,000 Tax Reduction mum!muuuul\l\\m\um\mml1mmIuuuuummummIumumu 'l'he convultions Vaughan Township citizens are ex- periencing as the direct re- sult of reassessment along provincial guidelines as laid down by Queen's Park are being felt throughout the length and breadth of York County.

Catholic Teachers Still Negotiating While Metro Roman Catholic school teachers are threatening to resign en masse if satisfac- tory salary settlement is not reached by the end of May, sep- arate school teachers in York County are negotiating amicab- lly with the York County Roman \Catholic School Board. Board officials report that there have been very few resig- nations from the ranks of the 200 teachers in the 18 York County schools â€" even fewer than might be expected. Nearlly all vacancies have been filled and most of the staff hired for a new school due to open in Thornhill in the fall. ‘ 1 LA. a teachers’ committee with Rob- ert Zaskey of Notl'e Dame School in Newmarket as chair- man.
