form of xon- ing bylaw to prevent snch a thing from happening they had to admit tbey were stymied by his request legally tbe town- snip cannot prevent him from ob taining a building permit for a garage and there is nothing on the books to say tbe man cannot live in the garage tte applicant ralph hous was quite open and honest about the request re said he was be ing married shortly and wanted to build a 2 by 22 foot garage to tide him over until he could gat his house under construction he even ottered to sign an agree ment including a date when he would be obliged to vacate tbe garage council was against his idea of bring in tte garage but bad no legal grounds to stop him instead they suggested be would be better to build the basement of tte house root it over and live in it or rent a trailer in which be could live on the prop erty tour mistake was in being too honest summed op council lor tom hid re said tbe man could have built a garage and moved in and the township could not stop mm we havent got a leg to stand on added councillor pat patt erson but be hoped tte man would do the right thing for the sake of the rest at the township residents lets not mate fish of one and fowl of the other continued councillor hid we let people build a cellar and live in it for five years before tbey build a house over it we let them live in trailers some without a fee why stop this man from living in a garage tbe applicant was urged to check with the health unit and aee it tte inspectors would ap prove residence in the garage meanwhile the council is caning in its solicitor

assessment commission proposal is turned down hopes of inaugurating assess ment commissioner system in hatton were dashed friday when hatton county council by an 18- 13 recorded vote rejected the proposal councillors even those strong ly opposed to tbe system never theless left the door open for such a move in tbe future the present state of indecision over regional government was blamed tor the majority decision to drop the subject for tbe time being at least burlington and cakvtlle repre sentatives tocounty council were strongly against adopting the county assessment commission er system although they admit ted tbe plan would have some the system is superior to anything we can do individually chimed in reeve b h hinton of acton he suggested if councill ors waited for regional govern ment before they took any pro gressive steps there would nev er be any improvements htf also cited tbe need for additional ac comodation for aged citizens as another project that might be held up waiting tor regional gov ernment reeve hinto added a charge that tbe majority of burlingtons councillors are oriented to wards hamilton and were afraid to vote as tbey felt it is time county councillors stood up and were counted on what tbey think is best for tbe county rather the n vote as directed by their own municipal councils he said his charges were hotly denied by burlington representatives one way lo keep people from jumping down your throat is to keep your mouth shut merits in a regionalized govern mental setup we dent find much wrong with tbe proposed system we just dont think it is feasible at this time said bur lingtons deputyreeve frank rogers oakvlue deputyreeve alan day echoed the same sentiments oakville is not particularly a- gainst it but we should not be doing any broadening of county services until the province com es down with some answers to regional government be said htllton and acton delegates ar gued for tbe adoption of the sys tem deputyreeve charles me rely milton suggested council was retarding progress if it held up the adoption of the sys tem we all realize it is an eventuality why wait until it is pressed upon you be wanted to know the acton reeve sat down with a final volley charging the south ern councillors with using a par ochial approach instead of think ing of the good of the whole coun ty earlier in the meeting he had levelled the same charge in tbe same direction when a lively discussion was held over a new home for the aged warden william coulter nassagaweyas reeve warned the councillors a more equal sy stem of assessing would have to be adopted before the county could progress in many other fields welfare educatlonplan- ning and assessment would be at a standstill until the entire coun ty adopted a uniform system of assessing properties he said the vote was finally called oakvllle and burlington repre sentatives and deputyreeve george currie of esqueslng fav ored the motion calling or the county to reject the scheme tbe opposition was registered with acton georgetown and miltons delegates warden coulter and esqueslng reeve george leslie all of whom said they favored immediate adoption of the sy
