Absent were Bob Forhan. Newmarket mayor; Alma Walker Markham regional councillor; and George Burrows, Georgina mayor. “We're talking about attempting to speed up development of 80 acres. That’s 50 per cent of the 1,000-acre block and only 40 per cent will be OHAP," explained Fraser. The committee, if three of their five members show up, will consider the OHAP scheme in this afternoon‘s agenda. Only David Fraser, Vaughan regional councillor and Lois Hancey, Richmond Hill regional councillor, arrived for the meeting. “It seems to be the implication in this report that the whole 20,000 will be OHAP”, said Fraser, referring to the OHAP proposal before council. NEWMARKET â€" The regional planning committee fell one member short of achieving a quorum at their first scheduled meeting. That gave council the opportunity to refer Vaughan's Ontario Housing Action Program scheme back to planning committee for comments. That p5pulation is based upon the planned capacity of the York-Durham sewer â€" the big pipe. Under consideration is a 1,000-acre block, enough land to provide housing for 20,000 people -â€" double the number in the regional Technical Paper No. 8. Quorum lacking Now referred to by the regional engineering department as Technical Paper No 8, the document designates a 20,000 population for the town of Woodbridge. “The problem is that if we don‘t act by the deadline, Vaughan will lose $750,000 worth of grants", Fraser said. Vaughan ' Vaughan’s OHAP scheme concerns a piece of property known as Pine Valley Village or East Woodbridge. Outside plan The property is located outside of the overall plan for Vaughan as outlined in A Recommended Strategy for Urban Development for South Central York. NEWMARKET â€"â€" It’s become a matter of creating a regional identity, explained David Fraser, Vaughan regional councillor, last week after his town's Ontario Housing Action Program (OHAP) scheme was turned back to planning committee for com- ments. Vaughan may lose $750,000 in grants By Denise Romberg GEM store sale likely “We expect it to be a very successful store”, says Mr. Bingleman. It will be the largest Beaver Lumber store in the general Toronto area and will provide “a good broad selection of our kind of merchandise” meeting a need that the company feels has not so far been catered to in the Willowdale. Thornhill and Richmond Hill areas. Barring complications, it is hoped the store will be open to the public in April or early May. Trustees consider enlarging board The increase comes as a result of the recent census showing the region’s population has passed the 200,000 mark. Speaking on behalf of the Beaver Lumber Co. Ltd, real estate manager Jack Bingleman stated that, if all goes according to plan, renovations will begin at the end of January or early February to convert the premises into one of their large new ‘almost depart- ment like' stores, selling home products. If all goes well in current negotiations with the owners and the municipality, a Beaver Lumber Home Centre will move into the spot recently vacated by GEM stores on Yonge Street in Thor- nhill. RICHMOND HILL â€" Membership on the York Region Roman Catholic separate school board will be increased in the next municipal election, Chairman John McDermott told the board Tuesday. “Thié agYeement does not bind us to spend one nickel”, Fraser explained to council. r “The figures don’t mean anything." added Vaughan Mayor Garnet Williams: That translates as 8,000 people. But there is no provision for them in the York-Durham servicing plan. Approval implied The first of the two reports presen- ted to council from the engineering committee, was essentially an agreement to agree in principle to the OHAP program. A member of the Richmond Hill United Church, Mrs. Cooper is survived by her husband, Albert, daughter, Jean McCabe of King, son William Ronald Cooper of 100 Cedar Ave. in Richmond Hill, six grandchildren. two great grandchildren, brothers, Ron Foster of Islington, and John Foster of Schomâ€" berg, and sisters, Agnes Foster of Orillia and Lillian Ryerse of North Bay. Funeral services were held Jan. 19 at Marshall‘s Funeral Home officiated by Rev. Bob Shorten of Richmond Hill United Church. Mrs. Cooper was born in Schomberg June 9, 1907 and came to live in Rich- mond Hill 23 years later. RICHMOND HILL â€" A resident of Richmond Hill for 47 years, Violet Elizabeth Cooper of 170 Lucas Street, died Jan. 15 at York Central Hospital. Cause of death is believed to be cardiac failure. 47â€"year Hill resident dies The engineering department is concerned about both servicing the OHAP housing and meeting the dates set out in the agreement with the province. The project is supposed to have final approval from the region by the end of March â€" the same time that the OHAP comes to an end. Releases grants “The agreement releases the grants The province knows we’re committed,‘ Williams said. “Georgina has sufficient assessment to have one trustee". McDermott said. In the determination prior to the December municipal election, the towns of Aurora and Whitchurch- Stouffville were combined to elect one trustee as were East Gwillimbury and Georgina. Unfair last time “Because the last determination was judged an unfair way to proceed, the board will ask town clerks to permit at least one trustee to represent each of the region‘s nine municipalities“, McDermott explained. Consequently, two more members will be added to the board bringing the total to 16 trustees.

N0 snow shortage for Hill carnival RICHMOND HILL â€" Last year, about this time. snow had to be im- ported for the Winter Carnival from somewhere near Keswick, because of the springâ€"like temperatures in Rich- mond Hill. However. this year, the town would be happy to export most of the white stuff , The snow has both given the area a clean, crisp look most of the winter, but added a few new words to the vocabularies of its motorists as well. Winter Carnival organizers are happy about the weather because it means plenty of entries for the snow sculpting contest. The countdown has started and by tomorrow night (Thursday) one of these young Langstaff lovelies could be Queen of the Winter Carnival for 1977. Judging takes place at Thursday’s big dinner dance at the Royal Canadian Legion hall. with crowning the following evening at the Mill Pond at 8 o’clock.
