Bylaw coming to ban trucks on Fourth Line 17 Sideroad Hatton Hills councillors took the first step Monday to wards banning trucks on the Fourth Line and Sideroad Folio ing two meetings with residents and one with Indusmin officials last month Hills works committee received a brief from at Monday meeting and then passed a motion directing the solicitor and engineer to prepare a draft by law to restrict vehicle weights on the two roads Residents asked the trucks taking stone put of Indusmin quarry be banned from the road Don Indusmin mine manager told the committee per cent of the stone com ing out of the Halton Hills mine is trucked on the Fourth Line and 17 He reported of the truckers used by Indusmin are local truckers and 54 people most of whom live In the town work at the quarry The firm doesn t own the trucks he added He noted the firm paid the town In taxes to the town last year and warned It will cost the firm on extra 150 OOO a year in transporta tion costs If the truck route was moved to and Highway It is inevitable the in creased cost would to fact result in a reduction of ton nage produced and shipped from the quarry In turn this contraction would result In a direct reduction of total employment at the quarry and would have a parallel effect on purchase of local goods and services by the company he warned Engineer Robert Austin said even if no trucks were lowed on the roads struction will still be required and suggested if council wants trucks banned the town should try a few by laws and see if the province will ap prove any of them He said there is no standard by law available to follow In setting road weight restrictions since the Highway Traffic Act Equal costs from collision Councillor George pointed out residents have over the years paid as much In taxes to the town as Indus He noted the town just keeps pouring money into maintaining the roads which are being pounded dally by trucks Councillor Pat warned if the town takes the trucks off 17 they will end up going on other roads and other res dents will complain Austin agreed there t any road where residents will be happy to have trucks He than the 150 a different Maltby suggested a by
