TOO FAR AWAY “It's just unsuitable for a senior citizen apartment," he said. “The building would be prohibitive for senior citi- zens who would just have to walk too far to get to any shopping area. or church or whatever." Mr. Faris was also un- happy that “no one belong- ing to the Nobleton Senior Citizens, who would be using the facilities. were even asked to comment on the site by the province.

They don’t like where it‘s going to be. The citizens found support from King Township Mayor Margaret Britnell who was unhappy other alternative sites had not been con- sidered.

ZONING CHANGE Mayor Britnell said if the other site on Wilson Street proved to be acceptable price-wise "you could just go ahead and build. It‘s in our zoning area whereas the other site isn't and it will re- quire an amendment to our Official Plan." She said the Ontario Ho'ls. ing site was “raw agricul- tural land at the moment. There's no road and who". to say when the road would be build?" An OHC spokesman told council the "undesirable" site was selected because of a number of factors includ- ing a price tag of $45,000 which "is half of what the assessed price of the land is worth." He said his department was limited to a certain cost factor “something like $2,500 per unit and we have to con- sider this. This land is avail- able at a good price. This other property is obviously a better site but even if it is available maybe the price would be too prohibitive.” He added that a quick deâ€" cision on the present site would have to be made be- fore the option to purchase ran out. Councillor Murray Shear- down said the senior citizens “should have a say in this matter. They are going to live there after all." ROAD NEEDED Councillor Bill Long said the “owner of land agreed to provide the road. but he’s waiting to see if the site is acceptable." It was finally agreed by all that council would approach the owners of the Wilson Street land and see if it could be made available for a senior citizen building and at what price.

Sacred Heart School was the first Roman Catholic school in the County of York and has had accommodation increased by an addition on which there is still an out- standing debenture. The con- sensus of the parents at the July 2 meeting was that the best solution of their problems was to abandon the school and replace it with new accommodation preferably at the Holy Name site. Chairman McDermott reported that a committee of the board in co-operation with the administration has been appointed to look into the situation and will be re- porting in the fall. He told the trustees that this information has gone to the concerned parents in King by letter and that he has promised that they will be kept in touch with the progress of that committee.

People arriving at the dump dici their dumping. By FRED SIMPSON It seemed so admirable. so simple when a group of King Township citizens launched a recycling project at the municâ€" ipal dump last June. Four big bins were conveni- ently located on the dumping grounds. Except that some of them didn't bother to use the bms while others put the bottles in the paper bin or put the papers in the tin cnd and/or the bottle bins.

Richmond Hill 884-2139 On my way to do some shopping the other day, I dropped in unannounced on a friend and found her tak- ing tranquilizers. “I find them most neces- sary,“ she said in answer to my raised eyebrow. "Tsk, tsk," I chided her. “I never thought I'd see the day when you. the most calm and level-headed per- :on I know would need those. Is it the pace of mod- em living that's too fast for you? The kids getting you down? The doors fall off the car again?" I queried. "Not at all. I only need them one a week." she re- plied in a dignified tone. As a result of the latter. SWeezie was charged wnth assaulting a 12-year-old boy, who he said had insulted him by waving his backside at him “What on earth do you do once a week that you re- quire tranquilizers for?" I was baffled. Constable Leigh had been charged by Watson Sweezie. 36, who claimed the officer had pushed him out of the Newmarket police station last May, after Sweezie had made a citizen's arrest. Constable Lawrence Leigh, York Regional Police, was acquitted of assault last week in Newmarket Provin- cial Court. because the judge said there wasn't any case. "I go shopping," she sighed. I knew what she meant. I then proceeded to remi- nisce about the times I re- member when large eggs were 35c-37c a dozen, 33 oz. canned apple juice could be obtained for 25¢, bacon at 70c-75c per pound. and so on. I do hate going shopping these days. Apart from prices which are bad enough, things seem to be going hay- wire. Take the other day, for instance, I was in a large supermarket.

No one seems to know why, “I don't know why, it beats me," said an obviously perplex- ed and more than a little frus- trated Mayor Britnell. Mrs. Britnell claims she's de- termined to keep the township's fledgling recycling project alive despite what she called the "roadblocks" that have sprung up in its path. “I'm not going to le this die," she said. “I don't know where the roadblocks are. but I intend to find out." 727-6902 727-9751 640-2232 Zenith 94620 727-2022 727-4921 727-9852 833-6622 store‘s employees were going I around with fistfuls of cards changing prices all over the store â€"â€" upwards, of course.

Mayor Britnell told "The Lib- eral“ that the municipality had finally decided to remove three of the bins and just leave the paper bin to clear up some of the confusion. “This didn't work either,” she said. “Apparently they took the paper bin instead and now the papers won’t fit into the bin they left." It's worse still. It seems the bin that is there hasn’t got a lid and when it rains the papers get wet, get messy. USE YOUR WALKERS OPTION CHARGE ACCOUNT OR CHARGEX.
