and oping rexerred to the committee for a recooainndatlojl a debate on a request by delrex developments for permission to build on 37 lots on sargent road caused an impassioned speech by mayor armstrong at council meet ing on monday- the niaypr made a plea for coop eration between council and the delrex owners vt saying that he is getting tired of continuous debate on any matter which comes up about delrex the mayor said the subdivision is an integral part of town and of ex treme importance to georgetowns future welfare i dont think were going to get anywhere by either- council or the delrex owners saying youve got to do this or we wont change our minds there must be some giveandtake in such matters as this or were going to bog down completely said the mayor he warned that if every delrex matter is to be endlessly debated delrex is headed for doom and the town with it the mayors speech came after cr alfred sykes had strongly sta ted that he was against any con cession to the subdivision other than what georgetown had promi sed in an agreement made in 1954 prior to georgetown aniw a large portion of esquesing town ship delrex has asked permission to build on lots on sargent road on land which borders the old -h- craig reid farm the boundary be yond which the firm cannot go in house building until a 4040 indus trial ratio is reached according to the 1954 agreement at present 82 per cent of our assessment is in residential prop erty and i certainly dont think we need more houses said cr sykes who claims more building is going to aggravate an already serious situation mr sykes said that sargent rd is planned as a boulevard and that there will be an extra road to keep op for the additional houses he criticized changing parts of mac- intyre crescent from r3 to r4 cat egory contrary to the original plan filed with the town by delrex se midetached houses are being built there now he said and it is his opinion that delrex is violating its agreement by so doing cr ern hyde was checked by the mayor when he stated his op position to semidetached housing as a reason for opposing a motion proposed by cr harrison and by reeve allen to grant permission for building on sargent road if the issue is going to be clou ded by a discussion on what type of houses are to be allowed in georgetown lets have a motion to change our building bylaw and our proposed zoning bylaw he said at present there is no leg islation to stop anyone building anything anywhere and such a dis cussion has no bearing on the bus iness before us with cr sykes insisting that the 1954 agreement be produced and read this was done by the mayor questioned by cr hyde the ma yor said that the sargent road housing would certainly violate the agreement but that an agree ment like a bylaw should hot nec essarily be carried out to the letter of the lav conditions change he pointed out ydut can see conditions in the agreement which the town has not lived up to delrex has put in some watermaihs which they could have asked us to do accor- ding to dr berry our disposal plant was overloaded before del rex built a house and we havent done anything about this we havenl lived up to our agreement its true remarked cr hyde but we are certainly ha- ving pressure put on us to do so there was certainly no pres sure on cr harrison or myself to make this motion was the reeves reply i think you know that we are the type of men who dont re act to pressure im merely using common sense to allow something which will be of benefit to the tax rate i certainly favour the motion said cr sicgilvray we will have to work along with delrex wher ever we can and get us both out of the shtiamozzle we seem to be heading for cr walter gray said he could not sufjport the request until he finds what type of bousing is plan ned on sargent road a recorded vote was asked and carried by a 54 vote crs hale hyde sykes and gray registered opposition grace baptist picnic held at ferndalt park
