The high-rise issue has been pretty dormant over the summer months, but a recent news story indicates that it is due to return to the forefront. To bring you up to date, the Town refused, about six weeks ago, to issue the developer a building permit citing a number of areas where the proposed development did not meet the requirements of, the building by'-Iaws. The devel- oper in turn appealed to the courts to force the Town to issue the building permit. The court deferred hearing the issue until late September or early October. On Mon day, August llth, the Town specified the in- provements required of the developer before he could be issued the building permit and gave him 90 days to make the improvements.

As far as the provincial election is concerned, 1 hope, over the next five weeks, to lay out what 1 feel are some of the more important issues of the campaign, both locally and provincially. Granted this wfll reflect my biases, but, hopefully, it wil give ail of you something to think about and accept or reject, as you see fit. 1 also hope to be able to attend as many election meetings as I can and report on these for you. Finally, this columnn as 1 haveý said many limes is one method of communicating events and happenings to West Lynde and to Whitby. Its success depends in large measure on reader response. Last year, 1 publicized any and ahi events which were brought to my attention.
