is supposed to be collec ted on monday hut for the past three weeks at leaw ii hasnt been picked up on that day t mr hartlic contcn- ded it was not hygenir to leave it sit ting in the streets for long periods nor was it a credit to the town he urged thst s definite time for collec tion be set down end sdhered to councillor lisle who is public works chairman replying to mr har die said that he had had two calls from shelley street residents last week with similar complaints it is the third week such conditions hsvc occurred mr hale said he had dis cussed the situation with xlr lane who had promised him a new sched ule would be drawn up eliminating the trouble nothing appears to hsve been done so mr hale assured mr hardie he would contact mr lane ag ain mayor armstrong said thst the gsrbage situation had only two pos sible solutions either the collector would hsve to get more equipment or set up s new schedule ot collection so thst householders would know defin itely when it is to be collected he asked mr hale for a report on the matter at the next meeting garbage collection in this area has since been chsnged to fridays the second point mr hardie brought up concerned- the condition of the roads in sunbeam heights it is very hard to get in and out of the driveways on prince charles drive and shelley street the construction company is still in chargeof the roads in that area but council hnstrue- ted town engineer to notify the con struction company to rectify the con dition of the roads immediately bob wyatt and mrs fred sinclair alio addressed council regarding the

henry street snd forms a pool at the side of the house the storm sewpr recently instltcd there merely deflects the course of the water mr wyatt claimed mr wyatt was also concerned with the proposed solution of the drsin- ace problem in his back yard in filling it up if that were done he would lose some valuable fruit trees and bushes lie would like to avoid this situation if at all possible council referred to knginecr wil son for advice on this problem mr wilson said that by the time the grad ing on the highway which runs in the front of mr wyatts house unfinish ed which should be in s dsy or so the drainage at the front of the house would be all right with regard to the hack yards he explained that the town couldnt put in a catch bas in without lowering the storm sewer sll along guelph street ot a great deal of expense engineer wilson said that in his opinion if the back yard were filled in to a depth of two feet only the problem would be sol ved in thst way also tho trees and shrubs on the property would not be harmed in response to mrs sinclairs query as to what type ot fill would be used mr wilson replied thst top soil would be put on top of it so thst the garden would not suffer mrs sinclair also wished assurance that drainage of water from the north of the proper ty which la a problem in a heavy rain be looked after mr wilson promised thst it would also be
