Councillor George Bevan, THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, December 5, 1962: § In 'Drunken Stupor Water Fluoridation Can Reduce Decay The fluoridation issue received a boost at Whitby Council meet- ing this week. * Councillor Paul Coath told council that in answer to anti- fluoridation letters and : liter- ature received by council he had asked a local dentist, Dr. Andrew Glenny to address coun- cil on the issue. Mayor Stanley Martin pointed out that the position of the town was clear as spelled out under the Municipal Act. He said that the vote at the last election was in favor of fluoridation and ac- tions. One part fluoride to a mil- lion parts water, he said. 'In towns that have used the chemical, Dr. Glenny continued, it has béen found that 60 per cent the children have had cavity'reduction.

The Protection chairman of the streets com- mittee, proposed the. following motion: "'A bylaw be prepared by the Town to regulate the planting, trimming and removal of trees on all roads and streets, and to include the trimming and re- moval of trees on adjoining property when such trees may be considered decayed or dan- gerous to the public." Councillor Bevan urged that: 'Ever. since the incorporation of Whitby in 1855 the tree-lined streets: have been a mark of distinction and pride to its citi- zens. | the «control of pweeds, and we have our own Sylaw which con- trols hedges on streets, but we do not have a bylaw for the planting, trimming and removal of street trees.

During the summer a coron- jer's jury reeommended the town take measures to supply safety equipment at the harbor. The committee reported that: A reply be forwarded to the Department of the Attorney |General, pointing out that the Town of Whitby does not own as a part of the residential !and- scape, and over a period of time, a gradual sense of owner- ship is acquired. It is very im portant to have a legal instru- ment -- a bylaw -- to clearly define, who is responsible for what, in the matter of street trees, The bylaw is also neces- sary as a guide to the public, the Town Engineer, the Works Department, to Council, to the streets committee and to the PUC, who by necessity, must undertake a great deal of tree- trimming in order to provide clearance for their power wires. "The absence of a bylaw has resulted, throughout the years, in a totally inconsistent approach to these problems. We debate at great length in Coun- cil the need to remove or retain a couple of trees located in a strictly retail shopping area, but we take no action to replace the large number of trees that have been removed over the years because of decay or hazard to the public. "A few years ago, the then existing Council, adopted a pol- 'icy of planting trees on residen- tial properties abutting streets, but this policy has now been discontinued. "T believe we need a bylaw for street trees, and I wish to ask Council to approve, in principle, | letter from the local coroner should have been addressed to \the Department of Transport at | Ottawa. The committee recommends |that two additional life-buoys be installed on town property east of the dock, bringing the total number of life-buoys to four and that all life-buoys be suitably protected from the weather. Also that on the poles holding the life-buoys signs be placed stating that the area is unsupervised and persons using the beach do so at their own tisk. The committee feels that it is impractical to maintain a motor boat at the harbor. The committee wishes to fur- ther report that on Sept. 10, a letter was forwarded to the Department of Public Works at Ottawa, pointing out that a barricade: is needed at Whitby harbor and that the property is owned by the Department of Transport, As a follow-up the committee recommends that a copy of the coroner's report to he Attorney General be for- warded to the Department of Transport in order to indicate the necessity for adesuate pro- tection. : The committee report accepted by council. WHITBY DAY-BY-DAY NOT TOWN AMBULANCE A cutline under a page one picture in Saturday's edition of The Oshawa Times stated an unidentified woman was shown seated in her wrecked car, awaiting the arrival of a W. C. Town ambulance to transport her to Oshawa General Hospi- tal. Jack Town, operator of the Town Ambulance Service, said Tuesday afternoon, the accident was not awaiting the arrival of his ambulance, but was await- ing the arrival of another am- bulance. Mr. Town pointed out his ambulance had already been to the accident scene and taken the most severely injured vic- tim to Oshawa General Hospi- tal. The Times regrets any em- barrassment which may have been caused Mr. Town and his staff. this is done, the streets com- mittee could submit to the by- included in the bylaw."
