With the change in health care emphasis. so too would volunteering have to change to better serve the patients under long term care. Shv pointed out the proposed population growth and the proposed lulure development expected for southern York Region. Her speech dealt with long term community trends which may affect York (‘entral Hospital as :1 provider of health care. The Town of Dundas, like several other com- munities, probably, doesn't like the postal service, and it said so in a resolution distributed to Ontario municipalities. The resolution arrived in Richmond Hill Monday and was received by council with a single comment from Councillor Andre Chateauvert: “Ban the post office and go back to pony express. It would be just as fast.” He introduced Gord human who is the Development Director for Ihe foundation.

Mr. Taft. head of Taft Broadcasting of the US. (the parent firm in the scheme), stood up before council and made the huge promise. Vaughan Town council extracted a promise of nearly an extra $112 million from funland developer Dudley Taft last week. This in spite of a regional traffic expert‘s testimony this week that the extra money spent on park access will make no difference whatever in traffic through the Maple neighborhood. The extra money in- volves $1,300,000 for His good faith was born out this week when J. F. McCallum, Family Leisure Centres lawyer, told an Ontario Municipal Board (0MB) appeal hearing the necessary purchase agreements for land to carry out the Taft promise have been obâ€" tained. at 1Drive The extra land will provide the Highway 400 main access to the Theme Park at Rutherford Road instead of 11a miles north "Flowers by Janet". a display of watercolours by local artist Janet Walerhouse, will he on display on the upper floor of the Richmond Hill Public Library during the month of November.

Taft said. “We will go all out. We will do everything in our power to achieve Concept 3 (the Rutherford entrance). “If that's the strong feeling of town and (York) region, we‘re prepared to do it." The only limitation would be if the land couldn‘t be obtained at reasonable cost, he said. Even then, Councillors Jim Cameron of Maple and Mrs. Lorna Jackson of Woodbridge continued their solid opposition to the project. Councillors Jackson and Cameron fought against allowing even an interim entrance to the park at Major Mackenzie Drive. C 0 u n c i 1 l o r A b Hollingshead of Wood- bridge reminded council the experts considered the difference in traffic effect on Maple between the alternative entrances to be insignificant. Tfie ’rest of council voted for it. Hollingéhead suggested those opposing the Major Mackenzie entrance might just have the motive of delaying the park. Theme Park In fact, the theme park would make it feasible to construct a power loop allowing power to be carried to Maple area from two directions, thus increasing the depen- dability of the Maple Stan Greenwood, Vaughan Hydro secretary-manager. told OMB Vice-Chairmen Armour McCrae and D. D. Diplock the power required by the park could be supplied by the commission without difficulty.

McCrae said there are so many regions late with official plans that the province is no longer insisting all develop- ments must wait for completed plans. But the board still reserved the right to adjourn the hearing later if it became apparent official plan information was necessary. He said the dismissal was because York Region hadn‘t opposed the holding of the hearing on the grounds of lack of an official plan. The OMB hearing was scheduled to continue at least until Thursday afternoon.
