may soon be restricted to curbside pick up with a limit to the number of bags Town Engineer Bob Austin told councillors June the best way to solve the Inequitable situation which exists for commercial garbage pick up Is to stay off private property and limit the number of bags probably to about 10 Mr Austin was acting on the re quest by the Chamber of Commerce In Georgetown to come up with a fair and equal garbage collection system Right now not all businesses have up on private property and others don t said Mr Austin Regardless of the level of garbage collection service ail urban area businesses pay for the service The complaint Is that some businesses must use their own private container service thus they pay for garbage disposal twice Ward 1 Coun Norm Elliott said per cent of businesses in Georgetown have garbage pick up on private land while only about per cent of Acton businesses receive service He wants the pick up service in the two urban areas equalled out Mr Austin said those businesses who ve been putting their garbage behind their buildings and having the town pick it up have been get ting a free ride for a long lime The only way to solve the problem Is to stay off private property which would eliminate safety haiards In volved with backing up said Mr Austin That proposal includes plows Town staff have considered a con lalner system but that la difficult to administer he said He also ruled out the Idea of giving rebates to firms which do not use municipal garbage pick up There are some businesses In town which could fill an entire truck with one pick up said Mr Austin The idea of limiting garbage bags would eliminate that problem he said Town staff may not strictly adhere to the bag limit but it would give them the power to act if there were companies abusing the municipal pick up service said Mr Austin The proposal is the only system which would provide curbside pick up and not have mountains of com refuseon display he said Ward Coun Betty Fisher called the application to plazas ludicrous Business owners would have to cart garbage across huge parking lots she said Ward Coun Pam Sheldon likes the idea of limiting garbage bags but she wonts to use the proposal to push businesses to recycle Region has an entire dlvi lion specifically for recycling and businesses could salve some of own problems by recycling she said Ward Coun Joe Hewitt thinks commercial waste collection Is a no win situation Some businesses whose service will be cut back because of the elimination of pick up on private land will be upset And winter will cause problems because snow will pile up In front of the garbage bags be added Mayor Rues Miller said picking up garbage at the will cause a problem on Street He also wants to know the cost of t hop roposed system The town will circulate the pro posal to the Chambers of Commerce and Business Improvement Areas in Georgetown and Acton for their replies by Sept 1 Proposed expansion of day care facilities meets with resistance By BRIAN MacLEOD Herald Staff A Georgetown woman plans to expand her daycare facilities at Main Street North has met with resistance from town staff Lucy wants to expand her day core operation from five children to 16 but the town expressed Its reservations about the proposal at a public meeting June Mrs has planned for up to 10 parking spaces and two separate entrances on the property but town engineers say the application goes against the Hills official plan because the property fronts onto an arterial road Highway The house is directly across from the Intersection of Highway and Moore Park Crescent said senior planner Terry The resulting traffic congestion could be hazardous hesaid Mrs would need an amendment to the Official Plan and rezonlng of the property for the ex pension Traffic volumes on Highway are heavy during the peak hours and the town engineers don t want to in crease the number of cars entering onto and leaving Highway he said There is no left turn lane onto Moore Park Crescent which means cars turning left would force through traffic onto the right hand lane said Mr Korsiak That could eliminate any possibility of parking In front of the building on Highway Mrs said she has been trying to find a house for a daycare centre since 1964 but she has had no luck either purchasing or renting any facility for that purpose Commercial and industrial areas are too expensive she said She believes the traffic problem won be as bad as the town says because most cars travel south bound on Highway In the morning with very little traffic turning onto Moore Park Crescent from the nor thbound lone on Highway Most cars coming to the daycare centre would be travelling north bound she said The same situation exists In front of McDonald on Guelph Street and there are no traffic problems there said Mrs At least five residents have writ ten to the town supporting the expan sion but one neighbor Mark who lives two houses ob jected Residents in favor of the expan sion say the daycare centre Is desperately needed En the area Most either con t find babysitters or can t find daycare closeby Parents using the centre now say they have never encountered any traffic problems Mr thinks the traffic con will be worsened by the ex panslon There have been Occidents at the intersection recently and last fall a was hit by a car in front of the aycare centre The town Is expected to debate the expansion In two weeks Town declines to sell walkway to residents Crescent to neighboring residents Peter Lysy a Dawson Crescent resident appealed to the town May IS to sell the walkway to residents at and Dawson Crescent and and 89 Irwin Crescent The homeowners said noisy beer drinkers were disturbing residents and people hanging out
