objections and concerns to town council the council which stated that Fred Tolton operator of the much criticized wrecking yard had 14 days to move the fence in front or the yard feet back from the road line of his operators license A building investigator found that the present fence is approximately 12 to IS feet away from the road line however town regulations state that wrecking yard fences must not be located any closer than feet from a regional road But as In almost all cases there is more than just one side to a story Owner We arent going to do anything until we have received official notice on councils decision Once we receive the official notice then we will decide on what we plan to do stated Fred Tolton owner of the Limehouse wrecking yard However Mr Tolton pointed out that he is not being hard to get along with as far as positioning his fence properly Mr Tolton has had two sur veys taken of his property and the region has taken at least three surveys all of which showed that sections of the road lie on Toltons property Its a regional road I approached the region about putting a fence up The region said go ahead no problem Just place the fence as far away from the road as you can And thats what I did explained Mr Tolton A lot of people think put the fence up on town property but I have proof that it is on my land Im not out to move the road but Im about to use my property the way I wish stated Mr Tolton Me went on to explain that two weeks ago an en vironmental inspector looked over the wrecking yard and had only one complaint Mr Tolton was told to put up a fence along the one side of the yard Other than that he had nothing to complain about stated Mr Tolton The road is where It shouldnt be so I really cant move the fence until they move the road off my property can IV concluded Mr The man in the middle If he doesnt adhere to the bylaws then the town will definitely press charges explained Councillor Rubs Miller In a recent Interview Councillor Miller went on to explain that Ihe town Is having a survey taken to determine where the roads boundary line lies Once the boundary lino Is determined then Mr Tolton will have to set the fence feet from where the boundary line should He We have to take action if the bylaws are disobeyed We the town have to show people that the bylaws are meant to having them commented Councillor Miller Councillor Miller became involved in the wrecking yard issue after receiving a number of citizens complaints In a previous statement Councillor Miller reflected the complaints and concerns of the cltUens He has not been a good resident of the neigh borhood We must act for the citizens of the area whose property has decreased in value because of that yard Councillor Miller also pointed out the dangers involved because of the present fence enclosing the wrecking yard Thats a very dangerous corner One of these days theres going to be an accident there Citizens If council doesnt take action then we the Limehouse citizens group will have to go up higher for legal aid stated Boss Irwin spokesman for the group Were going to push council to take more action Either Mr is In the wrong or he is in the right But wc want to know where we stand con tinued Mr Irwin Mr Irwin explained that a number of school bus drivers have refused to drive around the corner by the wrecking yard because of the present fence blocking the view He went on to outline the other complaints of the citizens Who wants a wrecking yard along the main street or their vUlageortown We are trying to get the town back on Its feet again Everyone Is doing his port in cleaning up But whats the use with that yard staring at you It should never have been allowed In the first Mr Irwin continued to say that the citizens ore
