Heavy fog and wet roads Manchester Saturday took one life and injured nine may have contributed to the tragedy. Council briefs For the second time since adopting a set of rules gov- erning council meeting pro- cedures Port Perry council had to suspend the rules September 18 in order to allow the meeting to con- tinue past 11 p.m. The four hour meeting dealt primar- ily with development propo- sals and lasted until about a quarter to 12. TOWN HALL A letter from the Village's engineering consultants suggested that the consul- tants could draw up work specifications to make the town hall on Queen St. at Lilla meet standards of the National Building Code. THe firm also offered to prepare tender forms so a price for repairs could be obtained. Council authorized the consultants to proceed. TWO NEW WELLS The Reeve and Treasurer were-authorized to enter into a legal agreement with the Ontario Water Resources Commission to begin construction of two new wells to replace the village's one existing well. OBJECTIONS WITHDRAWN The following night (Sept. 19) council met with rate- payers who had listed ob- jections to Port Perry's proposed zoning by-law amendments. It appear as if all the object- ions will be withdrawn as soon as council makes a few changes in the proposed amendment to bring it into - line with the ratepayers suggestions.

Wednesday, Sept. 26th, 1973 No a8 Council approves developers request for zoning changes At its Sept. 18 meeting Port Perry council approved zoning changes in about half a dozen areas to accomodate the plans of developers. Among the areas council expressed its willingness to change are the Poplar Park area where High Chaparel Developments intends to build two housing sub divi- sions. The sub divisiéns would include both single family and- semi detached houses and would result in the village getting the pre- sent swimming pool and pond as a park. The same developer got approval for his plan to build a sub division of single family houses in the area west of Simcoe Street and north of Queen Street in behind the beer store. A third High Chaperel pro- posal, which calls for about 16 condiminium type units: across from the public school, was also approved. This one required a_zoning change from low residential to medium residential. The units, at today's rates, would rent for about $250 a month. Healthy Development Local doctors Cohoon and Price teamed up to propose two developments. One calls for 32 semi detached units on 16 lots in an area east of Simcoe Street between Paxton and MacDonald streets. This proposal has been submitted before by the doctors and rejected by Queens Park. Council will write to the government and say that it has no objection to consideration being given to the plan again. The doctors also got councils blessing on a plan to build a three storey, 36 unit apartment near the waterfront behind the Port Tavern. SHOPPING CENTRES Council okayed the re- zoning of the present Reesors Lumber yard and the land next door to it to the west from C-3 commercial to C-5 commercial. Two different developers have proposed shopping centres on the properties. The shopping , centres would include a motor. hotel and would cover the best part of a block from Shanly Street along Highway 7A and along water street to incorporate the present small complex which houses the drivers test office. Council agreed that the shopping centre proposals were still a long way down the ladder from final approval. None of the approvals mean that the developments can be built. There is a long, complicated series of steps leading from an original idea to a completed develop- ment. In each case at the September 18 meting council merely gave approval to move up to the next step. Full time job "I would think that the mayor would be a full time job," Ontario South M.P.P. William Newman told a radio audience last week- end. Speaking on the radio progranime Public Report Mr. Newman, . who is a former reeve of Pickering, explained that regional councillors will be allowed to name their own salaries. On another occasion re- gional supermayor Walter Beath has indicated that mayors should be paid more' than $5,000 a year. * one will watch your-children DEATH CAR in which 55 year old Albert Burdayron of Minden died Saturday morning near Manchester. Blood-Donor Clinic Thursday, Oct. 4 For the second time this year the Port Perry Kins- men Club has organized a blood donor clinic in town. The Clinic will be held in Port Perry United Church, Queen St. at Lilla, on Thurs- day, October 4. Blood don- ations will bé accepted be- tween 1:30 and 4:30 in the afternoon and between 6:30 and 8:30 in the evening. Blood supplies are de- pleted at this time of the year because most people who are able to choose when they will have surgery do so in the summer time. The sunny weather makes it easier to have an operation. Now that summer is over, The Red Cross, which supplies blood to hospitals at no charge, is concerned about the need to fully restock blood banks before winter sets in, and icy roads increase the potential for serious traffic emergencies. The Kinsmen will ar- range transportation for any one who needs it, and some- ") at the church while you spend the few minutes it takes to give your life saving donation. _ "You can't," as the old saying goes, "get blood from a stone." Sometimes you can't get it from a stoney heart either. The people who make an effort to get out to a blood donor clinic can be ident- ified as people who really care. DRAW WINNER.
