road with nothing around it He admitted the new road would add to the distance res dents would have to travel to reach Acton and estimated It at seven eighths of a mile Councillor Dick asked Mr what authority he had for terming the bylaw discriminatory Mr said he had none with him but said he based It on one of his own cases At th point the lawyers retired to discuss the matter Groundwork laid for Landlordtenant bureau Region much awaited Landlord Tenant Bureau Is expected to be in operation before too much longer according to regional clerk Garfield Brown Brown noted he had been investigating the possibility of receiving provincial aid Brown noted the province funded a legal aid program to the tune of III He explained he was interested In seeing whether or not some people

being revised to Incorporate clauses of the act that put more teeth In the legislation and authority for the bureau Long campaign 11 appears the bureau will become a reality That fact has to be credited as the direct result of a tireless effort by Evelyn liudgins of Burl ngton Mrs is the past chair lady of the Burlington bureau With the coming of regional government the Burlington bureau was phased out and legislation permitted the region to take but the legislation was not com Convinced of the need for such a bureau Mrs appeared before the Region Administration and Finance Committee time

to be more urgent crowded out discussion on the bureau time and time again Close vote When the committee and the bureau received a shaky sort of endorsation from the region A motion authorizing the establishment of a bureau with a meagre budget of was passed but by a very close vote Mrs campaign to have the bureau established started In October It is likely to be on into September or possibly even October before the regional bureau is established and active Basically the function of the bureau is to mediate disputes between landlords and tenants and advise both parties of their legal rights as set out in provincial legislation I While some cases arc destined for a lawyers attention there are apparently many cases that can be settled by a volunteer bureau Calls will be channelled
