WHITBY and DISTRICT Whitby Bureau Office: 111 Dundas St. West Manager: Rae Hopkins Tel, 668-3703 WATER MAIN TO SERVICE installed NEW COUNTY COURTHOUSE. Riere i, ws a INVITED TO ATTEND year's capital cost paving pro- gram, All told you wrote three let- ters to Council this year -- May 7, June 10 and June 25 listing a number of complaints, par- ticularly regarding the paving of Mary street. To answer these complaints in a proper manner I have made a careful analysis of your letters, You state that as a result of the installation of sanitary sew. ers on Mary street in 1960, your driveway was left in a hideous mess, You also state your opposition to the tearing up and mashing down of grav- elled roads, I am in sympathy with these complaints, and no- thing would please council and our new Town Engineer more than the immediate paving of all gravel roads in town, The maintenance of these roads is costly, but council has a duty to all taxpayers to hold One of Town Council's most Influential critics and the 10 town fathers squared off Mon- day night as council sat for the second time during its summer recess, Mrs. Muriel Mcllwain, 580 Mary street east was in attend- ance at Monday night's second summer meeting by special in- vitation, | She 'suggested council should stop its worries about 'squaring off" the town's boundaries as it has applied to the Ontario Mu- nicipal Board for permission to do so in an annexation request- ed and "try squaring off" with some of the ratepayers, Mrs, Mcliwain's pet peeve is that Mary street is not a paved street, It has been in existence for 15 years and during the past two years council has collected some $10,000 in tax revenue in the block between Garden and Pine streets, the tax line. I have, during my first year as Councillor in 1962, {met this objective by keeping within the streets budget. You stated that Mary street paving was included in the 1961 budget. I particularly asked the Town Clerk \to check the corre- spondence on this matter, and I was advised there is nothing in the records to indicate that council included this in the 1961 budget or even made a commit- ment for same, Your neighbor, Garnet Thomp- | "Council", she charged, ;managed to get the liquor vote | through, the Brass Band got its grant and Councillor Joyce} {Burns got her fence (the con- itroversial chain link fence around.

This priming | THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, August 20, 1963 § Critic And Council Square Otr Monday Coming now to 1962, which was my first year on council, as far as I am able to determine, council received no corre. spondence from you or from Mr, Thompson regarding the paving of Mary street or the condition of your driveway, I personally never received a complaint until your three re- cent letters to council arrived, son dated April 25, 1963, All these letters were turned over to the streets committee, visiting the writer of the letter, as well as one from Mr. Thomp- I followed my usual practice of and in each case I visited both you and Mr. Thompson, I am at a complete loss to understand why, when no action was taken in 1961 to pave Mary street you did not write to coun, cil in February 1962, and again in February 1963, just prior to the preparation of the yearly budgets, if the conditions men. tioned by you were so serious, Our 1963 paving program, sub- mitted by our former Town Engineer, was on a_ planned basis, and which he had divid- ed into three categories, in or- der of relative need. The total cost of the three categories amounted to $32,000, and to hold the mill rate your council had to reduce this amount by $10,000, This reduction practically eliminated the items in cate. gory three which included the paving of Mary and Garden streets, Category 1 items have now practically been completed, and only item remains in cate- gory 2. Such being the case, | can see no reason at all why the items in category 3, together with the one item in category 2 should not be included in the 1964 program as new category, I will go on record now as rec: ommending this to the new Town Engineer who, I know, is in favor of planning and con- tinulty of sound policies. Fur- thermore, I suggest that you also write to council in Febru- ary, 1964, on this matter. In regard to your comments on the Whitby Town Band, I can only say that the grant is made each year as a result of a plebiscite taken in December 1957, In regard to the Coronation Park fence which you criticized in your letter, I voted against it, and feel as you do -- that the money could have been put to a better use, WE MANUFACTURE PRECAST CONCRETE =] Ske aC TANKS Approved for all municipal and township by-laws.
