(Turn to page 6) PORT PERRY STAR -- Wed., September 13, 1978 -- § Scugog stalls (From page 3) that if the Township puts its sign and seal on the amend- ing by-law it could open a flood-gate of similar applica- - tions to sever 10-acre lots from bona fide farm opera- tions. In fact, councillor Jerry Taylor speculated that there could be as many as 1000 similar applications. Even Mayor Lawrence Malcolm got into the debate during the afternoon session questioning the wording of a _ letter from OMB Chairman W. Shub which says the council '"'should" comply with the Cabinet order.

However, as the afternoon session recessed' at 4:30 and then reconvened at 7:30 with still no action from council, it was obvious that he was most unhappy with the way things were going. His first application to get the building lot was made almost three years ago. Since that time he has taken his fight to the OMB, which turned him down, and finally to the provincial Cabinet. In a telephone conversa- tion with the Star ten days ago on the issue, he said his chotterbox ........ Guaranteed to perk up the fun at any party. 10. "Fantastic Party Fun For Adults!
