The subject of a Park at or Near the northern part of the Man- vers ~- Cartwright Boundary could include a township owned lot that at present was growing up in scrub. Council tentatively agreed to co-operate with the neighbouring municipality of Manvers. N The Time being 12:00 noon Council "adjourned- to an: in- formal discussion over their lunch. Reconvening at 1:30 with Mr. Murray of the Dept, of Highways present Council moved to open Tenders as follows: For the purchase of one new 24,000 GVW Truck with Box and Dump installed.

Council continued "with "Tenders -- Next for Gar-. bage Collector for 1965. George Heaslip of Nestleton quoted sum of $1,665.00 for 37 pickups. George Johns also of Nestle- ton quoted sum of $1,475.00 for same pickups. As Mr. Johns did not quote equipment available Council moved to accept Tender of Mr. George Heaslip at price quoted. As there were no Tenders re- ceived for Livestock Inspector under the Warble . Fly Control Act, Council directed the Clerk to enquire. if former Inspector, Mr. George Johns of Nestleton would continue with his job. After deliberation Mr. Johns declined. The position remains vacant at this time. One other Tender remained-- For the Sale of the M.F. EZZEE FLO Fertilizer Spreader used but in good condition--The only Tender received was that of V. Malcolm for sum of $100. which was accepted on motion of Council. Mr. John Pearson of The Com- munity Planning Branch of the Dept. of Municipal Affairs was present by appointment and "discussed with Council the need for Planning Controls. He re- viewed the former building By- Law and stated that no Area Control was legal for either Building or Lot size without a Zoning By-Law. He stated that costs of Education would always be inequitable, and doubted if legislation would ever "rule otherwise. In considering Plan- ning he asked if the municip- ality could afford to pay per- haps $3,000 per year for three with professional assistance. The alternative being to pass a Zon- ing By-Law with minimum reg- ulations regulating size control of buildings and building lots. Also a Building By-Law and then Sub-Division Control which would ease conveyancing and return order to chaos in Build: ing Lot transactions. Finally Mr. Pearson stated that they would inspect the New Building By-Law and pef- haps re-arrange same to make provisions enforceable, and also mentioned that the Short Form of the Natlonal Building Code might also work in and serve the purpose desired. THe Roads Supt. and Mr. Mur- ray of D.H.O. returned with re- port that four of the eight ten- ders did not quote a correct price, 'either not totaling in the Retail Sales Tax or the Federal Tax or --deducting the Trade- in-allowance for the" old Dodge He EAH a ea SEA truck; Also the specifications on the low Tender of Wood-Lar- kin for the box did not qualify, so Council moved to accept the higher Tender of Wood-Larkin. The Tenders for the Rotary Mower were equally confusing, in that specifications for the mowers differed, so Council moved to withold their decision and tabled Tenders for future deliberation. At this time the architect retained by the Board of Education to draw plans for the New School Building addit- ion contacted the Council asking if they would waive the 75 foot limit from road centre in con- structing, as their plénned ad- dition could not be kept fur- ther back than 72 feet from the centre line; Council deliberated and with the advice of the Roads Superintendent, concur- red. The tinte now 6 p.m. Coun- cil again adjourned for dinner to to meet again as soon as possible. At 7:45 Council again in ses- sion and reviewed Mr. Pearson's information on Planning, ete. At 8:00 'p.m. Mr. Jim Lawrence of Nestleton, formerly with Whitby Planning Board and of many former positions of Consultant capacity as Fire Inspector, ah was present by appointment to discuss with Council their in- vitation for him to. accept the Building Inspector's Post. They realized that renumemration could not be offered. to the ex- tent of his worth but asked his co-operation. Mr. Lawrence of- fered to carry out the task dur- ing the current year at the same. rate of fees as had hither to ap- plied; that it was not his inten- tion to seek employment as his Country Store at Nestleton on 7A Highway took all the time he care to dispose but that he was interested in Community betterment and that if he could assist in contributing to some extent he would be happy to do so. By-Law #1116 Appointing Mr. Jim Lawrence of Nestleton as Building Inspector and sett- ing the Fees for inspection was given First reading and held until next meeting for passing. Council then went into Finance and the Bills and Accounts for the past month were presented for review, General Accounts for $788.25 plus payment of a Bank Loan of $6,000 and Roads Accounts for $2,842.91 for a total of $9,081.16 were approved for payment.
