COUNCIL NEWS A Regular Meeting of the Cauncil | of the Township of Whitby was held | in the Council Chambers, Brooklin on | ing lot as far as post office patrons would be concerned. Moved that the Reeve, Councillor Monday, June 24th, 1963 at 7.60 p.m. { Thompson and the Clerk be a Com- with all members except' Councillor Roberts present. mittee to meet with a representative of the Post Office branch of the Des On Motion the minutes of Meetings | partment of Public Works: with au. 17 and 18" were adopted as printed | and circulated. Carried. Deputations & Interviews: Mr. Eric Branton, Chairman of the Board of S. S. No. 2, reported to Coun- cil that the Board is not in favour of amalgamation right now. The Board does not wish to conduct a vote in this matter but would rather have Council initiate a vote if necessary. With regard to transportation the | Board is undecided and Mr. Branton | suggested that if this is the only issue dividing the section 'a meeting with | those interested could possibly work | out a solution. Reeve Goodwin suggested that thy Board, if unwilling to go into a school area, might give bus service and books as a compromise settlement. Mr. Branton replied that he would recommend this action to his board if | he thought it would be acceptable to the other side and would resolve the problem for some time to come. Mrs. W. McIntyre was present and Mrs. McIntyre sug- gested that providing transportation and scribblers ete. would go a long way toward satisfying the ratepayers but there would be, of course, no! guarantee that the people would be satisfied to remain outside a School Area for an indefinite period. Reeve Goodwin suggested that pos- gibly an emergent meeting of the Board of S.S. #2 could be held this evening to decide these matters, with a report being made to Council later in the meeting. This report would be of value when the final decision of the Council will be made later in the meeting as to whether or not 8.8. #2 will be included in the proposed school area. Mr. Branton did not take any action on this suggestion. Mr. Paul Coath, Solicitor, was pre- sent as representative of Mr. Steve | Kozaroff and Mr. Norman O'Leary | who were also present. The matter upon which = Mr. Coath addressed Council was the road construction standards for Plan M-42 as contained in the Subdividers Agreement cover- | ing the same. Mr. Coath submitted that while the roads as presently constructed do not meet the specifications of the said Agreement there are extenuating cir- cumstances which should be consider- included even though this is not within the subject plan. The people served by these roads are of modest means and not able to afford an ex- pensive road. The properties are mostly cottages which were divided to oblige friends and sold for nominal amounts. Therefore, to. bring the roads to the present stage, moneys were collected "from the various owners after the original sales had taken place and no more is available from this source. : It was pointed out by Mr. Coath that the roads will not be heavily travelled and hence need not be the full width as specified in the agree- ment.- Also the natural sand base would provide good sub-drainage and the amount of gravel could be reduced A copy of the original agreement was given to Mr. Coath, On Motion the road problem in the Kozaroff Plan of Subdivision was re- ferred to the Road Committee. Carried. Correspondence: ATRIA 1. A letter from the Depatrment of Public Works under date of June 20th, and accompanying sketch were con- sidered by the Council. The letter requested that the 650' area between the Crown property and the fire hall property be designated as a public thoroughfare to provide access to the rear of the proposed post office. Also consideration was asked for the pro- vision by the Township of a 6' alde- walk along the west side of Price St. from Vipond Road to the entrance sidewalk for the post office. The sketeh plan indicated that a 8' 6" fence around south west and south boundary of the property would cut off pedestrian access to the Post Of3 fice other than from the Price St. entrance. This would nullify most of for the Central Region of the H.E.P. thority to conclude the necessary ne- gotiations. Carried. 2. Notification was received from the Canadian Imperial Bank of Com- merce, Brooklin that a Resolution of Council is fequired to bring the sign- ing authority up to date. This was looked after by Resolution No. 1. ~ 3. A letter from Mr. John R. Frost, Clerk-Treasurer of the Town of Whitby conveyed a request from the Town Council that this Council give consideration to reducing the speed limit on the Third Concession between the East and West limits of the Town of Whitby to 30 miles per hour. Ou Motion this request was referred to the Roads Committee for study a- long with other roads in the muniei- | pality to agrive at an overall speed regulation policy. Carried. 4. A letter from Mr. T. K. Creigh- ton, Q.C. enclosed a draft of an agree: | ment between Cambridge Leaseholds Ltd. and the Township regarding a | water supply for the proposed shop- ping centre at Kendalwood Rd. and Highway #2. After considering the | entire agreement it was agreed that | two proposals made by the Township | were not included. These covered (1) | liability for Local Improvement charges for future extension of water- mains past the property not to be affected. by any payments made un- der the agreement and (2) in the event of a deep well being used as a source, the Township were to have drilling rights on any part of the property as | well as to be given the necessary | land and easements for a permanent | well and standpipe. A question Was) raised as to the legality of Paragraph | 6 dealing with the placing of certain | charges on the tax roll in the event Cambridge does not make payment as specified in the agreement. Moved that an opinion be sought | from Mr. Creighton on all matters | pertaining to the draft agreement | with Cambridge Leascholds. Carried. 5. The trustees of School Sections #8 and #9 requested the Council to proceed with the amalgamation of those two school sections to form a township school area under Section 40 of The Public Schools Act. On Motion this request was referred to General Business. Carried. 6. A letter from Mr. C. E. Crease, P. Eng. Consumer Service Engineer C. of Ontario, under date of June 20, 1963, advised Council that, as re- quested, a preliminary report on the purchase of the distribution system in the Township and its operation on a cost contract basis is being pre- pared. It was estimated that the report could not be completed prior to the end of the year due to the time involved in obtaining some of the ne- cessary information together with the time loss due to the holiday season. Moved that Mr. Crease be respect- fully requested to endeavour to have this report made available by Nov.-of this year. Carried. 7. A copy of a letter from Mr. Wil- liam A. Donoven, Chatham and copy of a Brief submitted by Mr. Donoven to the Select Committee on Municipal Law regarding Assessment and Taxa- tion were placed before Council. On.

COUNTY DELEGATES --- Deputy Reeve Dryden reported that the last session of County Council had been devoted to consideration of the Satu- tory Report of the County Assessor for proposed equalization of Assess- ment for 1963. This report proposed i a reduction of almost 1-% million dol-! lars in the Town of Whitby assess- ment and an increase of over 800,000 | "dollars in. the Township of Whitby | assessment. Other municipalities were to be increased or deceased in This report was rejected by the Council. A minority report, proposing to cut' these increases and decreases in half, was brought in by the Township re- presentatives although it had been de- feated in the Committee stage.

Reeve Goodwin agreed with Mr. Dryden's statements and suggested | that if a second appeal is launched in the space of 3 years, at an approxi- mate cost of $100,000. to the various municipalities, some solution of a drastic nature would be indicated. PARKS -- Chairman Goodwin re- | . ported that it had been agreed to |g' SHOP HOE provide playground supervision at |$ Willow Park and on asking for re- 4 commendations on this from the local advisory board it was agreed that this supervision would be too 'much res- ponsibility for a high school girl with- out training in parks supervision, With the co-operation of the C.R.A, officials in Oshawa a suitable candi- date from the area has been selected and is presently attending a one week training camp at a cost of $20.00. The fence between the Brooklin Community Field and the I. Blight property, being about 20 to 25 rods in length, was discussed. Chairman Goodwin reported that he had discuss- ed policies with other public boards and also the immediate problem with Mr. Blight. As a result Mr. Blight had offered to pay 25% of the cost of the fence up to a maximum of $20.00 provided two gates are sup- plied. Chairman Goodwin recom- mended that this offer be accepted and the matter was completed by Resolution #3. GENERAL BUSINESS Item b of. Correspondence was dis- cugsed at some length as to whether or not 8.8. #2 should be included in the proposed area. Councillor Sturch summed up his thinking in this regard in that he must look on the inclusion of S.8. #2 in the area as being bast for these ratepayers even though they are divided in their thinking. Reeve Goodwin agreed with this reasoning and Resolation No. 2 was introduced.
