We‘ve done every- thing in our power to rectify the situation”, said Mr. Roman. emphasizing again that assess- ment was now in the hands of the provincial authorities. He also said the market value as. sessment system was opposed by Markham Township when it was adopted by majority vote of York County Council. “We were faced with a very serious dilemma. How- ever, we found that the ov- erall situation generally in Markham was very healthy. About 90% of the taxpay- ers remained in I favor- able situation. “But there was a group of people, about 10% of Mark- ham‘s 11.000 taxpayers, who were hard hit. “The treasurer and clerk have been instructed to prepare the proper tax relief formula and bylaw under Bill 143 for coun- cil adoption. “A11 taxpayers should pay close attention to their 1971 as- sessment notices and not miss their opportunity to appeal them if this action is warrant- ed”, Deputy-reeve Roman war- ned. Councillor Jim Jongeneel, candidate for regional repre- sentative in the Town of Mark- ham, also attended the meeting. Councillor Bill Masters, prob- able candidate for 3 Markham Ward 1 council seat, was also present. Councillors Jongeneel and Masters backed up Deputy- reeve Roman’s explanation that the township council had only limited power to deal with the tax situation. They also helped to answer the questions put by citizens. He said that to give relief to the hard hit 10% wouldn’t mean a very heavy burden on the other 90%. One estimate was that relief for the 10% would cost the rest of the town- ship taxpayers an average of about eight dollars each, he said. Donald Deacon, MLA York Centre, and Barney Danson, MP York North, were platform guests at the meeting. “I don’t know where the line of justice can be drawn, but we are doing what we can to hebp out. Mr. Jongeneel warned that the job of getting relief for the hard hit 10% in Markham Township was only half done, and that the association should not relax its vigilance. Taxpayers‘ Association Presi- dent Jack Stone of '77 Grand- view Avenue. South Thornhill, was chairman of the meeting. He denied a recent news story in “The Willowdale Enterprise” which quoted him as saying 50% of the people in Thornhill were Markham Taxpayers Jam Protest Meeting Sept. 15! By HAROLD BLAINE Having just received their new, and frequently increased 1971 market value tax assessment notices in the mail, 300 Markham Township taxpayers turned out September 15 for the second public protest meeting of the Markham Township Taxpayers’ Association held at Thornhill Secondary School. Deputy-reeve Anthony Roman, candidate for Markham mayor, was there to tell the taxpayers what township council had done at a special meet- ing the, night before. _ _ ~-*o “The “council decision wasn’t unanimous, but we decided to adopt the procedure under Bill 143,” he said. The same day. while the ow- ners were away on holiday, a Jane Street home was entered by burglars. Police found the drawers and desks in the house ransacked, and won’t know what has been stolen until the owners return. in favor of annexation by Metro “I didn’t say it at all. I haven‘t made any kind of sur- vey to determine how many Thornhill taxpayers would fav- or joining North York", Presi- dent Stone said. Empty beer bottles were thrown through a fire door on the' west side of the Charles Howitt Public School, Pearson Avenue. September 20. The school was entered and four classrooms were ransacked. Pencils and ink were scattered around the floors. Fish and water were dumped from a tank. York Region Assessment Com- missioner Ken Andrews was present during the last part of the meeting and was available to answer citizens’ questions. One citizen indicated what seemed to be the general feel- ing of the meeting when he told the council members that “the way you people are operating, and the way Mr. Benson (feder- al finance minister) is operat- ing in Ottawa, we might as well quit work." Also September 20 two win- dows were broken at the Rich- vale Public Library. This same citizen later said, “How can you expect people to pay taxes next year when as- sessment appeals from last year haven’t been heard yet? It does- n’t make sense." Candidate Masters said he appealed his assessment last year to the Court of Revision in Markham, and wasn’t satis- fied with the results. His sub- sequent appeal to the county court still hadn’t been heard, he said. Councillor Masters agreed that the situation was extreme- ly irritating. He said he was tangled up in it just like the rest of the people present. Satisfied that the Markham Township Council was on its way toward doing everything it could to provide tax relief in 1970, the executive of the tax- payers’ association recommend- ed that all 1970 taxes now be paid. At the first meeting last June, taxpayers voted to withhold payment of all taxes above the 1969 level. This particular bogus bill could be identified by the lack of a plate number on the front. The pupils in the eyes of the Queen‘s portrait were not real- istic, and the bill itself was off- color, police said. Again September 19 there was a break-in at the Richvale Coffee Shoppe, 9114 Yonge Street, but the burglars appar- ently found nothing to steal, police said. A bogus $10 bill turned up September 18 at the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, 7027 Yonge Street, Thornhill, at about 5 o’clock, the Mark- ham Township Police Depart- ment says. , This is the fifth time this year that counterfeit money has turned up in the township. By a show of hands indicat- ing a large majority of support, the taxpayers present passed three resolutions. Burglars Get Cheques The machine was later re- covered at Carrville Road and Yonge Street in Richvale, Vau- ghan Township Police report. Also September 19 there was a break-in at a Garden Avenue home in Langstaff and two cheques were stolen from a purse, along with a tape rec- order. First, they asked the town- ship council to appeal the whole 1971 assessment roll on the Thornhill Bank Finds Cou'nterfeit $10 Bill, On September 19 a 1965- model red motorcycle was tak- en from a residence on Thorn- ridge Drive, Thornhill.

Secondly, they voted in favor of asking each and every Mark- ham Township property owner to appeal his 1971 assessment individually on the same grounds. Thirdly, on a motion introduc- ed by Robert Adams. candidate for the Ward 1 Markham Town A success story always make pleasant reading and when that success comes from the expendi- ture of public funds, the reading is the more pleasant. Such a story of success was unveiled at Richmond Hill Town Council meeting on the evening of September 14 as members of a volunteer committee sought continued financial assistance from Richmond Hill Council for the Richmond Hill Youth Aid Centre. Thirdly, on a motion introduc- ed by Robert Adams. candidate for the Ward 1 Markham Town Council seat, the meeting voted to ask Queen's Park to pay a greater share of York County Board of Education costs by means of increased provincial grants. At the beginning of the meet- ing, Taxpayers' Association Sec- retary Jim Byerley of 14 Bright- bay Crescent. South Thornhill, explained the new provincial tax relief Bills 142‘and 143. Treasurer Dave Rogers of 7 Brightbay Crescent. South Thornhill, reported that the as- sociation had a bank balance of $4.90. Pamphlets circulated to property owners before the meeting had cost about $75. Renting the Thornhill Second- ary School auditorium and other costs would amount to an addi- tional $50-$60, he said. A collection was taken and $166.17 was contributed by the taxpayers in the audience. Included in the taxpayers‘ association executive that ar- ranged the meeting were the Fnll‘nwind- Chairman gtnnb June, 1,058 young people, rang- ing in the age from 13 to 25 have sought aid and counselling there, it was reported. The greater precentage of these had problems concerning family. re- location of residence, education, welfare assistance. financial aid. employment and personal af- fairs. The drug users have only recently gained confidence in the centre and have begun to seek the help they so desper- ately need through it, it was reported. This was the reason behind the great desire to keep the centre open and function- ing. Included in the taxpayers‘ association executive that ar- ranged the meeting were the following: Chairman Stone. Vice-Chairman Nick Belak of 5 Henderson Avenue, South Thornhill; Secretary Byerley: Mrs. Ethel Brannigan of 96 Meadowview Avenue, South Thornhill; Dr. Jack Passmore of RR 1, Richmond Hill; Ed Pat- rick of 12 Brightbay Crescent, South Thornhill, candidate for Town of Markham Ward 1; John Galbraith of 9 Brightbay 'Cres- cent and Mrs. Victoria Comar of 3 Henderson Avenue, South Thornhill.

Pro- vincial help has been promised for 75% of the cost of the pro- ject for November and Decem- ber. The cost of Richmond Hill would be approximately $6,200 to the end of the year â€" $5,000 for September and October and $1,200 for the other two months. Rev. David McGuire of St. Mary’s Anglican Church out- lined the history of the centre briefly from its beginnings when two young students at Seneca College open their home to young people with problems. As an outgrowth of this, YAC was opened in June as a pilot project with the support of the Addiction Research Foundation, which has contributed $5,700 over the three-month period. Richmond Hlil Council provided $3,000 which was spent on salaries of two youth workers. The Lions and Rotarians and many individuals have also con- tributed to this pilot project and a recent donkey baseball game raised $242.50. Since the centre opened in June, 1,058 young people, rang- ing in the age from 13 to 25 have sought aid and counselling there, it was reported.

Four were admitted to hospital. “The freakouts have all hap- pened in the last six weeks." he stated as he forecast that the problems will become worse during the winter because of the cold weather. Dr. William Shaw, psychia- trist, at York Central Hospital also was lauditory of the cen- tre. reporting that a number of young people had been referred to his office for help and his advice had been sought in coun- selling others. “Through the centre we will be able to reach more of these youngsters, who might otherwise drift into limbo or meet one of the horrible fates we read about." “YAC is reaching a large per- centage of youth who wouldn't touch a psychiatrist. church or school. I find a large number coming in with sensible reason- ing now. Most social services are available on a 9 to 5 bésis and troubles don't always occur on that basis,” said Attendance Counsellor David Porter of the York County Board of Educa- tion. Although Reeve Donald Plax- ton felt this was not a burden the municipal taxpayer should be asked to bear, the decision to refer the request to the fin- ance committee (deputy-reeve Ivan Mansbridge, chairman) to see if they can find the neces- sary funds somewhere in the town's budget for this year was unanimous.
