em * PREPARE WAY ®» TO PURCHASE HYDRO {tpt nt ytey. @ THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thuredey, Jenvery 24, 1963 ICE FISHERMEN SWARM TO FRENCHMAN'S BAY NEARLY 400 HUTS dot Frenchman's Bay at this time of year as hardy Pickering and Dunbarton fishermen try their luck at ice fishing. Good catches are being reported by the anglers who sit for hours at a small hole in the ice. In the lower photo, Hugh Mac- kintosh of 1399 Garvolin ave- nue, Bay Ridges stands out- side his small shack. The is sa flee Nie chen easiest way to reach the huts is to drive over the ice which is 18 inches thick in most spots, --Oshawa Times Photos Gravel Pit Operators Force Bylaw Changes BROUGHAM (Staff) Be- cause of opposition by gravel pit operators to a proposed by- aw to regulate that industry, Pickering Counci! discussed amendments and changes in the bylaw at council recently. A letter from Ken Cooper, of Cooper Block Ltd. described gravel pit operations as a lead- ing type of industry, and the taxation up to ten times the amount paid for ordinary land use. He recommended the slopes bye left two to one with the bot- tom commercially flat and that when abandoned, a pit be left in a neat and tidy manner. He advised that fencing is normal- ly erected by the owner for protection. Mr. Cooper object- ed to the proposed 150 feet from the centre line of a high- way, and recommended 50 feet. This distance was discussed and Reeve J. Sherman Scott finally recommended a _ dis- tance of 20 feet from the edge of the road allowance. On a 66-foot road this would set the excava- tion back 53 feet from the centre of the road, and varying amounts for various widths of roads. A chain link fence in the by- law was objected to by opera- tors. Council agreed that an ordinary farm fence would be satisfactory, Deputy Reeve Mrs. McPherson recommended that barbed wire be placed at the top 'to keep children out. Recalling boyhood days Coun- cillor Ross Deakin said: "I * think such a fence is a chal- lenge rather than an obstacle!" Council decided that a nine- » strand farm type mesh fence be ~ required, at least four feet in + height, sufficient to enclose the "pit or quarry, and with gates and entrances and exits. The Township's Official Plan ~ sets out areas for gravel opera- = tions in a ridge of gravel across . the Township. It stipulates that «. trees be planted to block the © view of the pit from the road. Councillor Mowbray suggest- i. ed that the bylaw be referred » back to Township solicitors * with changes and suggestions » that have been myade, taking «the Official Plan into account, and this was agreed upon, A resolution was passed that « the Township solicitors prepare = a resolution to have the HEPC *" Act amended to permit muni- ~ cipalities to purchase a Hydro system in part of a municipal- «ity. As it stands, the system = can be purchased for the whole *, municipality. This resolution will be submit- © ted to the Association of Urban- » Rural Municipalities, to the On- » tario Municipal Association, the "= Association of Mayors and » Reeves, and Parliamentary rep- = resentatives. "An urban area of a muni- cipality on the fringe of Metro ~ is expected to subsidize the whole, while others are not," wo - "I don't think a selected group should pay exhorbitant rates." COMMITTEE OF ADJUSTMENT Councillors recommended rep- resentatives from their Wards to act on a proposed Committee of Adjustment. Councillor Hu- bert Wank suggested Reginald Bozak; Councillor W. J. Green- ing, Dennis Hrsfield, Councillor Ross Deakin, T. A. Newman, Councillor Harvey Spang, R. F. Cooper, Councillor Milton Mow- bray and Edgar James. "If Council does its duty," said Deputy Reeve Mrs. Mc- Pherson, 'I don't think a Com- mittee of Adjustment is going to be very much in demand." Reeve Scott remarked that Council had no jurisdiction over minor variations of the Zoning Bylaws. "All we can do," said Coun- cillor Mowbray, "is say we do not propose to prosecute at the present time. It is a rather com- plicated procedure and out of all proportion to the problem involved. The function is to per- mit minor variations to the zon- ing bylaw. It has no_ jurisdic- tion over Planning Board con- sents. There is no way minor variations can be legally per- mitted without a Court of Ad- justment." A bylaw will be prepared to set up such a court. PAY 10 PER CENT COMMISSION Clerk L. T. Johnson outlined that the Department of Munici- pal Affairs would not dis- approve any rate of commis- sion a municipality wished to pay an agent, provided the cost of the commission was includ- ed in the value of the land, as appraised by two valuators, An amendment to pay 10 per cent to agents for selling indus- trial land to a motion that recom mended 5 per cent was passed, with Deputy Reeve Mrs. Jean McPherson and Councillor Spang opposing. Mr. Mowbray contended that the commission was not going to look very big, and an agent would not be able to spend a lot of time on a potential trans- action. BUILD ON SMALLER FRONTAGE Deputy Reeve Mrs. McPher- son proposed a motion that dwellings be permitted to be erected in a residential area on lots that have insufficient front- age but the area of which is more than the 15,000 feet re- quired, and when the lot is be- aa two houses already erect- ed. Mrs. McPherson contended that it was.a hardship for rate- payers to have to abandon the'r lots in these cases. The motion was passed. An amendment will be prepared to the zoning bylaw. STUDY WATER SITUATION A resolution to permit Town- engage engineering consultants to tie in the West Rouge water system with that of the Rose- bank and Brock road systems was passed, with Councillors Harvey Spang and Deputy Reeve Mrs. McPherson oppos- ing. The latter felt that the amount Mild Bug Hits Anglers At Dunbarton PICKERING (Staff) -- The 40 fishing huts a1 Frenchman's Bay are proof that the fisher- man can, if he is hardy enough, enjoy his sport the year round. Scores of people of all ages are infected with a mild bug known to some as "fishing fever". They come from miles around to sit in a small hut and stare into the murky green water of the bay. Some of the huts are elabor- ate structures built to hold eight neople who can have their choice of as many as three fish- ing holes. Most of the huts are more simple and have a stove. People wearing contented ex- pressions will sit for hours and dangle a line in the water through a hole in the ice. One man said he ice fished three times a week and didn't care if he caught anything. As a reward for his efforts he was content with the peace and quiet after a hard day's work. "The feeling of being away from it all is strong when one sits in an ice hut and listens to the wind whistle," he said. The ice om the Bay is 18 inches thich in places and a number of the more daring fishermen drive cars and even heavy trucks up to the door of the huts. Pike and perch are the fish most often caught and 20 to 25 -- is not an uncommon size. BORROWS U.S. POWER TRAIL, B.C.

Committee To Present Data Driver Scuffles With OPP Officer BOWMANVILLE (Staff) -- An impaired driver and a police officer scuffling on the ground in four degrees below zero weather and a runaway car, was the picture painted for Magistrate R.

Constable Evans testified that about 11 p.m. Dec. 29 he saw a car parked on the south shoul- der of Highway 115, opposite the Orono racetrack. "The lights were on and the motor was running,"' said the officer, "but I couldn't see any- one behind the steering wheel." He said he opened the door, saw the accused slumped over the wheel, and shook him a couple of times to wake him up. pushing," said Const. Evans, "so I brought my flashlight down on his back." He also said May kicked him several times on the legs. Constable Francis Dryden, who was driving the cruiser at the time, said he saw the car moving slowly ahead on its own. "I had no choice but to stop the car and leave Constable) Evans on his own for the time; being," he said. "They were} both on the ground and Evans wasn't doing so well at the time." But he added that when he returned, Constable Evans was sitting on top of May. May told police he thought it was Christmas Eve. Magistrate Baxter dismissed the assault charge after Crown Attorney Harry Deyman said he thought it was a case of this man just being awakened and exploding, but when he came to his senses, he acted in an order- "He started swinging and ly manner.
