It seems that improvements and progress bring with them inconveniences for a time. Res- idents in the areas bordering the King Sideroad have been waiting, more or less patiently, for several years for work to commence on that road which will bring it up to a well-paved four-lane highway with curbs, storm sewers and a sidewalk on one side. When the road is completed this fall, it will bring pleasure to all residents. At one point, too, driveways Were blocked for a number of days, and at the best of times residents have had some diffi- culty in driving to and from their homes. In the meantime however, they are doing penance. Each morning they are awak-‘ ened by the noise of heavy road equipment as it starts the day’s work. This noise contin- ues throughout the day. Large amounts of sand and dirt are blown across the residential areas with every gust of wind and comes to rest inside the homes. making it impossible to keep things looking nice. i Co.. and “The Successful Sec- retary’s Handbook” by Esther Becker and Evelyn Anders. pub- lished by Harper and Row.

The planning committee of York Region has received re- gion council approval for a re- port from Planning Commis- Sioner Murray Pound as follows: In 1960. at the request of the Village of Stouffville, engin- eering studies were carried out with a view to carrying out flood control measures for the community. The measures, which were in two stages comprised construction of a small dam and channelization of the west branch of the Duf- fin Creek. The first phase, construction of the dam, was completed in 1968. The reaction of the Whit- church - Stouffville Mayor Ken Laushway appears to have been a very angry one. He has threatened in York Region Council that Whit- church - Stouffville may seek to withdraw from the newly formed regional municipality and move to join with a prop- osed Century City Satellite town development in Ontario County to the east. The approval of the regional council and its acceptance of financial responsibility is sought, since the Regional Mun- icipality of York is the partici- pating municipality in the Metro Conservation Authority and has been designated the benefiting municipality. The estimated cost of the pro- ject is $600,000 and the Mini. ster of Energy and Resources Management is to be asked to approve a grant of 50% of this amount. The Region of York would thus be responsible for providing finance for the bal- ance of $300,000. The Duffin Creek project would provide flood control in the former Village of Stouff- ville. In 1969 the Village Council, by resolution. asked the con- servation authority to adopt a flood control project for the second phase, the channeliza- tion of Duffin Creek and indi- cated its willingness to assume its share of the cost as the benefiting municipality. The regional solicitor advises that under the terms of the Conservation Authorities Act, 1968 (8.3 (a), SS. 1 (b)) the re- gional municipality is now the participating municipality and as such is responsible for finan- cing the municipal share of the project. However. Section 57, SS. (1) of the Regional Municipality of York Act 1970 would appear to permit the regional council, subject to the approval of the 89A YONGE ST.
