Council Steps Out To Help When somebody has a pro- blem Port Perry council does- n't seem to mind stepping out of its way to help out. In fact last 'Wednesday the entire council vacated the chambers for more than 15 minutes to trudge up to Bigelow Street and examine a site to assist a contractor. When they returned after the firsthand inspection, it approved a bylaw granting Emedi Contractors exemption from the part lot control by- law. The firm is in the process lots and needed the exempt- ion so they could be sold. Bell Canada has been grant- ed permission to install bur- ied cable to give service on Alma Street between Maple and Simcoe Streets.

Complaints Spark Fire Bylaw Idea Setting fires within the Village limits is to be soon controlled by a local bylaw. The step has become necessary because of the num- ber of = complaints about people burning refuse in- stead of putting it out for collection. Council last Wednesday considered a number of clauses to be included in the bylaw and will have it studied by the Fire Chief before adopting it. Among clauses is that fires cannot be set within 20 feet of a wood- en building or 15 feet of a brick building. The, bylaw is also ex- pected to state fires may not be lit on days when the wind is high and on all occasions must be guarded until out. Provision for a fine of up to $50 is also expected. Councillor Joe Podres ar- gued that the bylaw should go so far as to prevent the the proposed -1 burning of leaves in the fall, Port Perry Boys In Warrior's Day Parade But the council's concen- sus was that this would cause a great deal of inconvenience and extra expense on the part of the Village since it would be responsibile for hauling away piles of leaves. Reeve Robert Kenny ex- plained that the intent of the bylaw was to stop people from burning garbage. He said in some instances small con- tractors were bringing home| industrial refuse to burn. Councillor Phil Orde agreed adding that there was no need to burn garbage which could be put out for 'éollection. Milk Store Is Opposed The building of a proposed Becker's Milk Store on High- way TA just east of the Tex- aco Service Station has been objected to by six ratepayers in the immediate area. Their main objection, in written letters to council, is that the store will be built on land zoned residential. But council, last Wednes- day, pointed out to Robert Archer, owner of the prop- erty, that the objection is really invalid since the prop- erty is already zoned com- mercial and not residential. The only real question fac- ing council is to permit the rezoning of the land from one form of commercial zoning to another. However, the six objectors are also complaining that a Becker's Store would among other things, cause problems because there would be a lack of parking space, there would be drag racing on the parking lot of the store, teenagers | would be hanging around, noise would be increased and properties would be devalued. Since there has been ob- jections to the proposed re- zoning there will likely be an | Ontario Municipal Board hear- ing into the application. The six objectors are: Albert and May Allen, Owen Reader, Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Short, Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Duff, Isabell and Murray Wil- son and George Mahaffy. one stipulating]. DR. JOHN D.
