tobtsmtmakilt aa mux created dear this hi a letter which i read t the april mth i and which i wdd atanracftat pabluhing in th barak begardinc the p aa ment to the a of nuiian ber 17th ism between ttakr- pality of georgetown and delrex i would tu the follwwihn poixts borne in mind and whore appl- cable have replies to the lions asked 1 trust that notfcmt i snail say will be construed that i oppose this move bather i would wish to give the that x want to be sore that this is the right thing to do at this time 1- take issue with the councillor who objects to what he favourable impressions by the public interest this time 1 feel that the people of georgetown have responded in an admirable fashion as is evident from their attendance at this meeting having introduced myself may 1 put the following pouts before you l what is the present with regard to the turns of our local manning bd viz the zoning bylaw and the registered plan at this time we should proceed with utmost caution m tight of our experience with the develop ers 1 specifically refer to the flagrant manner in which the ae cepted zoning was ignored especi ally with regard to the first of fence m the c of the semidetached homes on hdntyrel crescent it is my contention that before you auth this new proposal if m fact yon have au thority to so do that the zoning by law and begtstereu plan be given substance so that future offences do not occur 2 is there a bylaw prohibiting the septic tank if so a has an exemption been ap plied for by delrex and if so b co has the pari the owjlc been d was it grant cat written authority 3 as ham a mlnunma stan dard far roads in the municipality and if so a where may we- get a cany b b this enforced c who b the enforcing officer with apodal reference to the aaaeadment to the original agree- anent it would seem that you miss ed a golden opportunity to ask for the loss of tndustrialommercial aiiniiimmt promised by the other party to the agreement it would seem that you propose to perpe tuate the blunder s of 19m as the taxpayer will contlnqe to bear the heavier burden in respect of the original agreement as at this moment and according to the figures used by delrex in their various presentations the loss is some 50001x00 per annum more or less so that the offer of finan cial inducement in lieu of indus trial and or commercial assess ment is completely nullified and wwye back where we started 5 it would seem to me that with nine months in which to for mulate some policy in this mat ter the developer has every right tp be concerned for the future he is in business and that means making money but no instead of going to the delrex people and making counter proposals you wait till his situation calls for drastic action and then you rush tins pro through 6 1 will not pay lip service to the dire need for adequate edu cation for the children enough to say that our public school bd should be given every consider ation so that they together with the school staffs may be able to make full use of the proper facili ties that we must provide them with will you therefore gentlemen take heed of the public school boards recent

georgetown apr 22 1058 dear mr editor- would you be kind enough to give me a little space in your columns to suggest to the mayor and councillors respectfully of course that next weeks regular meeting monday april 28th at b pjn be held in a larger say wngglesworth school or the library i found when taking a petition around that never have the rate payers been so definitely opposed to any council business before in deed mr editor you said that yourself it is assumed that an amend ment to by law 5432 will be up for third and final reading this amendment authorises delrex developments ltd to pro ceed with the building of 582 ad ditional units which would bring the total to 952 units the original by law no 5432 was- contingent on an assessment ratio of 40 industrial and 60 residential being maintained this as we all know has been f a dismal failure there is no reason under the troop under leader don smith why thls 5 agreement while the rover crew did a pan- wlu not a disnai failure too

ou give proper weight to our auditor s report wherein he warns that our borrowing capacity is dangerously near its limit ment of municipal affairs viz a should this amendment be referred to them b is it in order that money gifts should be had in lieu of taxes c have the taxpayers any right to expect to be consulted in this in view of the above questions and the apparent seriousness with which the

respon mblc fur schooling but surely it is the responmbilit of all to see that adequate schooling is provided i for our children i believe the school board warn ed the council regarding further building due to the critical post tion at this tune i m sure coun cil will agree that the present shift classes do not come under the category of adequate according to a previous report tven to the harrison parent and uiachcr association the number of children per new house averages 1 t an one j with a grain of sinse can sec that there arc al rcad sufficient children to fill the new addition to harrison school and the proposed new school in the park area may i therefore ask council what provision is being made for j the future children who will be occuping the proposed 582 hou i ics will
