Mrs. Hancey said. “I was opposed on com- mittee to this recommendation because I felt the environment of the residential properties on Crosby Avenue should be protected. I don't like to be opposed to something Without producing an alternative and I am anxious, if at all possible. to eliminate the deficit on the Oak Ridges - Lake Wilcox service. I suggest that the GO buses be routed south on Yonge to Levendale, to turn at fire] bus loop, retracing the route back to Elgin 1 s. PHOTO FANS... START A HOBBY Recommendations of this committee were that GO Transit be asked to reroute G0 buses along Crosby Avenue instead of Elgin Mills Road East; that a draft tender be drawn up to provide for a federal service for the Lake Wilcox-Temper- anceville - Oak Ridges area; and that a review of the GO fare structure betnieen Oak Ridges and Richmond Hill be carried out. It was noted that the fare for this distance is five cents more than the fare between King City and Maple, which is the same‘distance. “There are other possible turning points â€" the buses could. go into the north end of the Rich- mond Heights Centre and come back on to Yonge at the traffic lights. "Or the TTC could be extended to Oxford Street and the GO Buses could turn there,” she said. By MARY DAWSON Concern about the deficit on the local bus service and in particular on routes 3 (to Oak Ridges) and 4 (to Langstaff) prompted the transit technical advisory committee to recom- mend changes in transportation services to Rich- mond Hill Council Monday of last week. “It was our desire to implement the recomâ€" mendations of our consultants to use the GO system to bring people from the northern portions of our town to work or shop in the central area,” POTATO CHIPS = 1/2 PRICE We have everything you’ll need to launch you on a most rewarding pastime â€" Develop- ing and Printing your own pictures. including: chemicals. trays, paper. washers. dryers. en- largers, etc. All at down to earth prices.

When Mr. Fedyna was plan- ning his nursing home last year. he was granted OMB approval for a lagoon system for sani- lal‘y disposal, although some of his neighbors had objected. However. he won council ap- proval to tap into the tou'n sewage disposal system at his own expense. He was allotted a daily gallonage of 10,000 for the 100 beds in his first build- mg. Now. he wishes to add a sec- ond building entirely for bed care patients. also with 100 beds. Because of problems with the capacity of the town's sew- age disposal plant. planning committee and the works com- mittee were disinclined to grant approval. Country Place Can Add 100 Beds No Further Demands On Sewerage Plaxton Opposed in his present building and be- cause of recent provincial gov- ernment regulations is not able to collect for these extras. To balance his budget he needs the new facility for which he will be able to collect from provin- cial sources. Regional Councillor Don- ald Plaxton objected to ap- proval of the application. “since several thousands of our citizens cannot acquire sewerage service by provin- cial legislation." Regional Councillor Gordon Rowe pointed out that although he would he very glad to have this service in his area. “the need is there and the facility employs 60 people from this district." “There was a division of opinion on council between the lagoon system or a hookup to our sewage disposal system at the, applicant's cost." recalled Councillor Lois Hancey. “Coun- cil decided on the latter. Mri Fedyna gave a lengthy present- ation, the planning committee recognized the social needs and referred the matter to the works committee. We believe there is a need for this type of facility. Mr. Fedyna has solved the sewâ€" laundry water from the system. the estimated usage of the pres- ent and the proposed buildings will be 6,000 gallons per day.
