Almost the entire counicil took exception to this portion of the letten and in their ne- marks stated that they wene attempting tu do their. duty as nepresentatives of all the people Of the community. There were several other very caustic com- ments by councillors suggesting that laws, rules and regulations were for evenyone to abide by and it 'was council's duty tu see that they were enforced.- A second dispute between the same parties concerned drainage on St. George St. The natural flow of water runs thnough the Bnookdale proper.- ty.

Councillons stated that v'n acute drainage problem bhas ne- sulted near Vincent Massey public school. To dlean up these problems and others of a similar nature. council approved a Board of Wonks resulution to engage a special solicitor.
