Tuesday, October 9. 1973, addressed to Mr. B. Young, Recreation Co-ordinâ€" ator. Town of Vaughan, 2141 Major Mackenzie Drive, Ma- ‘ple, Ontario. However, after hearing the two speakers, Tom Clan- cy, director of parks, and Bob Arnott, director of rec- reation. the meeting seemed reluctant to state its own plans. Instead Trustee Warren Bailie of Richmond Hill, said that he was going to ask the school board to make a study of the school complex site â€" of the 26 acres involved, 18 are for the building of a high school, eight for an elemen- tary school and six for a se- parate school â€"- to see whe- ther some of the land could be set aside as surplus and some agreement could be made with council to trans- fer the lands. MASTER PLAN He also suggested that a master plan of the site and the facilities required by the town, be drawn up right away. Then the board would examine it and see if the three acres were available. Mr. Bailie said after the meeting that he wasn’t trying to put further bar- riers in the way of the joint project, but that the Minist- ry of Education required as- surance in the way of a mas- ter site plan that the edu- cational needs were being fullfilled. It took most of the evening, but representa- tives of the area meeting last week in Roselawn Senior Public School to discuss the joint use of a school complex site in the BAIF Subdivision, finally got together and divulged their respective needs and interests in the three acres of land they have outlined for that purpose.__ _ Ron Hall, acting director of education, said he thought the various representatives were to present their needs at the meeting. He wanted to know more about the town’s proposed recreation centre; what was it? Would it have a rink, etc? The meeting was called ostensibly to hear reports from the Town of Richmond Hill Council, its planning, parks and recreation, social plan- ning committees and the arena board: York Regional Health and Social Services Committee, York Regional Police, York County Board of Education and the Roman Catholic School Board. Trustee Douglas Allen of Richmond Hill said that an independent planner was needed to design the area, with each group involved appointing a representative to meet with the planner. “The board is anxious to co~operate, but we need m know if the educational needs will be met," Mr. Hall said. He felt $4,000 'to $5,000 would be sufficient for the study, with the board paying 50 percent. the town 37% percent and the Roman Ca- tholic Board 12% percent. Said Councillor Lois Han- cey of Richmond Hill: “I thought the purpose tonight was to have all this mate- rial assembled.” â€" An in- dependent consultant could then see if all the facilities proposed could be fitted in, she said. “I think that's what we’re working toward," said Trus- tee Morley Kinnee of Vau- ghan, who chaired the mee- ting. CATHOLIC SCHOOL IN Trustee Robert Houghton of Richmond Hill said the meeting shouldn't discuss whether it was possible or not. “I know it's possible,” said Mr. Houghton. John McDermott, chair- man of the Roman Catholic School Board, said that his board was planning to go ahead with its plans for a school in the area, regard- less of what the others de- cided. Mayor William Lazenby suggested an ad hoc com- mittee, with representatives “Plans and specifications may be obtained from the office of Lee, Elken & Beck- sted, Architects, 207 Queen's Quay West, Toronto. Ontario, M5J 1A7, on deposit of a certified cheque for $100.00 payable to the Architects. This deposit will be return- ed upon return of plans and specifications in good condi- tion.

WOODBRIDGE COMMUNITY POOL Councillor Lou Wainâ€" wright said he thought the town could get going on an arena in the area in a month or two. of the area. be set up ‘to work with a master planner. “I thought this meeting was for this reason tonight,” he said. When asked from the floor if there was a question of the land being available. Chairman Kinnee said he couldn't answer that until they had a plan “as to what should be where." Shawu Beggs, chairman of parks and recreation said Community Benefits Under Plan The ultimate result of the municipality and the school board working together to share facilities, has been a benefit to the community as a whole. Tom Clancy, direc- tor of parks for the City of Kitchener, told a meeting at Roselawn Senior Public School last week. Sharing Facilities Mr. Clancy and Bob Ar- nott. director of recreation for the city. addressed a meeting of area municipal officials and school board trustees to discuss a similar project in York Region, with tmphasis on the present school complex site in BAIF Subdivision. The two speakers outlined the present agreement bet- ween th Kitchener parks and recreation department and Waterloo County Board of Education for the joint use of facilities. The agreement calls for each body to make its va- rious facilities available to each other at no cost, with maintenance being shared by the two. Planning and development of future buil- dings, as well as programs in necreation and leisure education, also are mutually shared. As an example, Mr. Clan- cy cited a project in which a school had converted one of its gymnasiums to a swimming pool for use by parks and recreation. .The school board was bil- led for 50 percent of the costs. and it billed parks and recreation 50 percent of the costs for the upkeep of the swimming pool. The latter in return, de- veloped a park for the school, complete with track, ball diamond and other fa- cilities. Parks and recreation also maintained all school grounds in the city at cost to the board. Mr. Amott said the pool was operated by the school board from 8.30 am to 4.30 pm weekdays, with parks operating it in the evenings and in the summer. He said the schools were open to any recreation group that asked for them. It was just a matter of chec- king with the schools and then providing the facilities at no cost to the users. For its part, the city pro- vided the use of indoor are- nas from 8 am to 6 pm for the schools. with Wednesday off for maintenance and be- ginners’ classes. City pools were also available. TO REVIEW AGREEMENT He said he didn’t know what the costs of the pro- gram were as yet. The pre- sent agreement. which cove- red both elementary and se- condary schools, was for two years. In reply to a question by Trustee Douglas Allan of Richmond Hill. Mr. Clancy said that prior to the agree- ment. the parks board paid the schools for their use, but picked up the costs on are- na rentals to the schools. He told Trustee Robert Haughton that the agree- ment would be reviewed in April and May of 1974. Some of the tangible re- sults of the present agree- ment. as outlined by Mr. Ar- nott, included the building of two arenas adjacent to high schools. with the schools getting the use of them from 9 am to 4 pm. Evenings and weekends were devoted to minor hoc- key and skating, with rol- ler skating in the spring, fol- lowed by lacrosse. He said the budget for the recreation department was $300,000, with $840,000 for parks for the 120,000 popu- lation. This included all grants to minor sports. He said the schools were open to the public at 7, with “latch-key" programs at some. allowing entry at 4 The parks board provided its own custodial staff, and was responsible for any los- ses to school equipment. When asked by David Schiller. chairman of the so- cial planning committee, whether any day care cent- the board should know if three acres were enough for the town's requirements. Trustee Bailie said he was confident there were three acres available. SAUNA WANTED The reports from the va- rious groups did. however, eventually get presented and everything from sauna baths to day care centres were listed among the needs. Hesse Rimon, director of planning for the Hill, listed the local requirements as follows: parks and recre- ation â€" 25-metre indoor pool, equipped health club room and sauna bath. crafts, music rooms. handball court. rifle range, washroom faci- lities. outdoor storage and repair shop. Arena board â€" 2.000-ca- pacity rink, parking area. Library board =â€" 5,000- square foot branch library, 2nd phase BAI‘F subdivision; social planning council â€" health and social services. transportation, recreation, day care, parks and play- grounds, needs outlined in survey of area. res were covered, Mr. Ar- nott said they had such a centre at one of the schools, but since “the advent of re- gional government, it was now being operated by the latter. WHAT ABOUT SNOW? Did the parks board look after snow removal? asked Mayor Bill Lazenby. The school head would have liked them to look af- ter all snow removal. but Betore you spend mone about where you and y’0ur ne months of each year In the snow In the slush in the wmter Long ting or0un And ior o lo! 0| Co there.“ be no getting Qrou Pictured above how winter drivino in this count winver you p Ahmugh r! a (my, mth :r-Jbob‘,‘ k' fi'w kw; m [m \L'r :, A solid sheet of steel seals the Beetle’s bottom.

Deputy Police Chief Wil- liam Shimmin said that the main concern of the police was that there would be easy access to the facilities. Also, in putting up any buil- dings, the dangers of van- dalism must be considered, so that the proper materials are used, and burglar alarms are installed. Mr. McDermott of the RC School Board said that an eight- room, elementary school. about 25,000 square feet, was required. Steve Bacsalmasi, superin- tendent of planning and de- velopment for York County Board of Education, said the board required one elemen- tary and one secondary school. On a recommendation by Mayor Lazenby. the meeting agreed to appoint a commit- te of four to study the re- quirements of the communi- ty and then arrange for the hiring of a site planner, if desired. Appointed to the commit- tee were: Rimon, Bacsalma- si. Shimmin and Percy Laf- ramboise, Roman Catholic School Board administrator. “we fought them vehement- ly," said Mr. Clancy. He said some of the work was tur- ned over to the works de- partment, but most was con- tracted out. He said he felt the whole program had benefited the community; even now the architect of a new school was seeking advice from the praks board as to what to incorporate into the new building. 178 YONGE STREET NORTH/RICHMOND HILL/8897701 W. & P.
