Mr. Irvine also disputed recent comments from the leaders of the opposition parties that the Province is going to jeopardize the Torontoâ€"Centred Region Plan. The plan suggests moderate growth in York Region and slower growth to the west of the Metro Toronto area.

By providing the developers money at a lower rate, the province expects they will not require as large a profit margin. The minister would not comment on the progress of his hurry-up housing action program here in York but said he would make a stétement to the house Thursday. In response to a question about the effect of ex- traordinarily high interest rates on the ability of average~income families to buy homes, Mr. Irvine said the province hopes to provide geared-to-income rental accommodation by lowering interest rates for developers. The program is designed to speed the approval of subdivision agreements and flood the market with enough building lots to slow the sky- rocketing cost of housing. Mr. Irvine said The Big Pipe, which his ministry will be funding partially, was designed to accommodate the population targets set by the province following a submission from York Region on the TCR plan. o c o n s e r v e a n d maintain the existing housing stock; Lewis has said the latest development announcement â€" The Big Pipe that will permit the building of170.000 new housing units under a 20- year, $200 million scheme â€" indicates the government is ignoring the plan.

Thus, it is extremely im- portant that the existing stock of housing be kept in good repair." the report says. The accompanying report, prepared by the town‘s planning depart- ment, recognized the great majority of homes are in good condition. But there are pockets of substandard housing within the municipality. It also recognizes these deteriorated dwellings n’lay stem from a lack of municipal services and facilities, from the negligence of absentee landlords or from an in- compatible surrounding environment. owners undertake im provements. The students hope that with the co-operation of all residents a greater con- tribution may be made towards improving our environment and conâ€" serving resources which are becoming scarcer every day. They hope this co- operative effort will bring about a more rational system of disposing of wastes.

Buck of Aurora for a “granite retreat into budget“, in the manner of her fellow Scot, Boswell. The next step in the process will be the preparation of a minimum standards bylaw. Then a property standards officer will be appointed and a property standards comâ€" mittee established. Staffduties The property standards officer may enter and in- spect any property at all reasonable times upon producing proper iden- tification. If, after in« spection, a property is found to be in any way sub~ standard. the officer must send a notice by registered mail to all owners and oc~ cupants of the property containing particulars of the nonâ€"conformity. After this is received a meeting between the owner and the property standards officer usually takes place to discuss details of the work to be done, the amount of time allowed for repairs and the financial ability of the owner. It was the consensus of Buck fights on Mayor Buck again led the fight against allowing the positions, which will call for starting salaries of $19,000, $12,400 and $5,925. And although not quoting kthe remarks once made about Dr. Johnson’s biographer, the mayor made it clear she felt it all was a bit of an extravagance and that The committee had been asked to review the situation, after it had temporarily shelved a motion by the health and social services committee calling for approval of the postion, plus additional posts of a special projects officer and clerk stenographer. Last week the latter two positions were also apâ€" proved.

THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Ontario, Wednesday, Oct. 30, 1974 n“ In its report, the ad- ministrative committee, which is chaired by Mayor Bob Forhan of Newmarket, said representatives of the Ministry of Commiunity and Social Services indicated it would look favorably on the establishment of an ad- ministrative position to assist the commissioner in the development and co- ordination of all branches of the department. It also approved a “special research position to assess and monitor '3'”: nmd for The mayor said the “impetus of social programs“ should come from the people who pay the bill; not from the staff, as at present. “These social services are not needed,” she said. Unnecessary “I haven’t heard any arguments to persuade me this position is necessary,” said Mayor Buck, who the week before quoted Health Minister Frank Miller’s remarks about cutting soaring, out-ofâ€"control health costs," to back her up. “We are not saying all houses in an area are sub- standard. but merely recognizing some are. We are talking about individual problems," he stated. Human concern Ward 1 Councillor Andy Chateauvert expressed concern over the possibility of families being thrown out of their homes with no alternative housing available. He was assured the town does not have the authority to throw oc- cupants out of their homes. The health unit placards a home as “unfit for habitation" only when a Mayor Lazenby stressed the fact council is not being critical of any area within the town's boundaries because it has problems. The council is simply recognizing there are problems and the majority of problems lie in a few pockets. that he is in contravention of an order that is final and binding. The recommendation was carried 10â€"3, with only Mayor Buck. Forhan and Margaret Britnell of King vntinq aoajmt it‘ ' and effectiveness of present and future programs.” Rollingbarb The positions qualify for a 50â€"50 subsidy from the province, Funds have also been allocated in the 1974 estimates to cover salaries and fringe benefits. Mayor William Lazenby Richmond Hill. chairman of health and social servaices, said that 25 years ago the criteria had been for three MOHs. Mayor Forhan, who again said he couldn't support the recommendation, suggested possibly what was needed was knother medical officer of health. Maybe Dr. Ian Kerr, the assistant MOH should move up and Dr. Slingerland could devote his full time to that of com- missioner. Mayor Rolling of East Gwillimbury said she had never known a doctor to make a good administrator and someone was needed to “tie everything together.” The mayor also received assurance from Building Inspector Ken Naylor that he is issuing some building permits in the Lake Wilcox district, where people are trying to improve their homes. The councillor insisted a clause be added stating the municipality would assist families in finding other accommodation by financial or other means. He failed to get support because “There is no way I will tear down a home over people‘s heads. My greatest concern is we don‘t have water and sewerage ser- vices in some areas. If we did have it would be possible for owners to fix up their homes on small lots,” stated Mayor Lazenby. Council concurred. building becomes vacant (Photo by the Studio That)
