the other pita are of little consequence since they are either out of operation or truck out only a load now and again the dufferin quarry paid 8777 47 in tax and the acton quarry paid tumms a total

to the dufiefibdriva way the township and duffer in splifthe cost next coun ty took over the deadend road and paved it to the dufferin driveway at the cost of 311000 for eight tenths of a mile of road pretty special treatment for a road that leads to nowhere and the ratepayers living bey ond the dufferin driveway still still travel on a gravel road plus there is the upkeep of the fifth sideroad which is also pa vea according to the plunkett re port the cost of maintaining a mile of road is about 2700 per mile at the nomination meet ing it was stated that the cost of maintaining a mile of road in esquesing is about 1 000 some residents complain that the roads along which they reside receive very little attention so it seems probable that the town atup would save considerably by providing leas service for these roads i would suggest that if any money is saved on some roads a great deal more than the stated ft 000 per mil is spent on the roads used m the heavy tracks hauling front the quarries y- a few days of heavy truck travel will cause more road da mage than weeks of normal car traffic residents complain of trucks using a road until it be comes rough and then switch ing to another one again ereatl- ing the same conditions trucks haollng from the dufferin quar ry often continue across hwy 29 and down the mb to the se venth una to avoid the weigh seals causing needless damage to gravel nada never intended for such heavy traffic i have been unable to determine bow many shortcuts are used by the trucks and how many miles of nada are being used nor do i what l added painter even at the low estimate of 11 000 per mile the cost quickly mounts a suggestion of a gentleman at the county office i think of fen a partial solution to the problem if the eaqueslng coun dl passed a bylaw establishing load limits for slderoads trucks would be forcedto use the highway or roads designed for heavy traffic if there is ever to be peace ful coexistence between the quarries and the residents two conditions are essential first that the quarries must pay a higher tax to provide for bet ter road maintenance second no more blasting they will 9 30 a m high school
