Tuesday, May 26, the Oakdale ; Heights Ratepayers‘ Association | held their meeting at Calico Drive School. This was a special meeting to discuss the reâ€"zoning of lands on Sheppard Avenue | from the dead end of Thurrock | Road to Northover Street, This parcel is five acres approximat&â€" | ly and presentlv zoned for semiâ€" | detached dwellings. The owner wished to change the zoning to | multiple â€" family dwellings . so that he could construct town houses. The meeting turned out to be one huge battle. The buil der broucht alons his architect to exnlain the design of the plans for the area and also to make note of what the people , facing this land would like in the way of landscaping and proâ€" ] tection for their varticular proâ€" | perties. Instead the people arsâ€" ued the chanse in zoning. It was explained by several people that this narticular land is not suitable for semi â€" detached dwellings and this is why the | townâ€"house arrangement was ev olved. The density level on the ‘ architect‘s plan is the lowest level for this zoning and !hel plan itself was by no means ofâ€" fensive. It is hoped by all that ! at a further meeting, some solâ€" ution to the problem will be reached. As 1 mentioned last week, with the advent of York Uniâ€" versity much of the land in a fiveâ€"mile radius of the univers: ity will be turned into highâ€" density, higch rtise zoning and it would be folly for any group of residents to insist in leaving land vacant. Mr. Booth, councilâ€" lor for Ward Seven was oresent and he elaborated. stating that he was willing to represent the people. He wished to make it clear that shouid they win their argument and the land left vacâ€" ant. he would not be respousible if applications for higher den sity came through later. It is his job to represent the people to the best of ais ability. But it is also his job to ensure sound planning for the township as a whole and as far as he is conâ€" cerned. this plan represents the least offensive answer to the problem of rezoning an orea bordering a main artery rosd such as Sheppard Avenue Also at this meeting. an apâ€" peal for coaches and umpires was made for the Oakâ€"lale Heights‘ _ Sports _ Association. However, a more urgent matâ€" ter has come to my attention reâ€" Rarding the Sports Association. I by Peg Grant . "MR. CANADA®" How many in the Maple Leaf and Amesbury Area know that we have in our midst. "Mr. Onâ€" tario‘ and Mr. Canada". and perhaps a future "Mr. Univerâ€" Mr. John J. Hazel of Rustic Road. who six years ago was judged Mr. Ontario. and who gained the title of "Mr. Canada" 2 years ago. was sent by the Amateur Athletic Union to reâ€" present Canada in the Mr. Uniâ€" verse contest in Paris, France, over the past weekâ€"end. In a recent contest in Quebec, representatives from all parts of Canada competed for the honour to represent Canaca in Paris. Mr. Hazel was the successful contestant over all these repreâ€" sentatives, including the present "Mr. Canada". (It should be stated here that one is allowed to hold the title for one yerr only, and a new champion is crowned each year) We wish him the best of luck, and hope to report to our readâ€" ers next week on the results of this contest ed it is expected that some time this week the bulldozers will be invading | the site of â€" Falstaff Avenue to begin our mew school, which is to be completed by the fall of 1965 HOSPITALS On inquiring how the momies from the 1 mill Hospital Levy are to be spent. it is learned that a yearly grant from North York of $60,000 each is given to both the Northwestern General Hospital and Humber Memorial Hospital.

In the morning, ; | the busses toured the westâ€"end | ! of North York from suburbs to ; | industrial areas. Then, after a ; | lovely lunch at the New Murray | | House on Steeles Avenue, the east section of the township was ‘ thoroughly covered.

Many of the regular crowd wer> pres ent plus a few firstâ€"timers who were very impressed with the dance. Mr. Booth was present as usual and although I have no news as to the financial sucâ€" cess of the dance, there is no doubt it was successful.

NORTH YORK TOUR: Six bus loads of representaâ€" tives from all areas of North York. along with Mr. Wm. Al lan and other members of the Metropolitan _ Toronto Council, were taken on a tour of North York last week. Heading the group was Reeve Norman Goodâ€" head, accompanied by members of his Council. This tour was arranged by the Township of North York and its purpose was to show the indusâ€" trial~ and â€" residential developâ€" ment achieved over the past few years in the Township. Meeting at Murray House on Stceles Avenue in tie morning, the busses, equipment with wellâ€" informed â€" guides, . toured . the Western sector, which, in the main was found to be highly inâ€" dustrialized. â€" After returning to Murray House for a luncheon and greetings. the tour proceed: ed to the Eastern section of North York, which, while it has a good deal of industry. appears to beâ€" mainly residential, with beautiful scenery, homes and landscaping Representing the (Maple Leaf Home and School on this tour were Mrs. C. Wilson and Mrs. L. Moir. Mr. Keith Skinner and Mr. Greg Grant represented _ the Maple Leaf Ratepayers organâ€" ization. It was quite noticeable to the above representatives that dur ing the day, at no time did the busses enter Ward 8. Are we the forgotten Area of North York Township?

Many of the parâ€" ticipants â€" particularly enjoyed the striking, new types of archâ€" itecture found in various sectâ€" ions of the township. Things such as industrial plazas, semiâ€" detached industrial plants for small â€" manufacturers, maison ettes, _ townâ€"houses, . condominâ€" ions _ (apartments | that _ are bought, like a home) and dwellâ€" ings with round doors and winâ€" dows were objects of much disâ€" cussion. The tourists had the thrill of seeing the surveyors out on the land proposed for the new York University branch and later in the afternoon, tourâ€" ing the existing York University grounds. Entertainment was â€" supplied by the architects and members of the planning staff of the township who were moderators or guides. Personal views on architecture and zoning were voiced, much to the enjoyment of the tourists. ‘Councx] President, and our new Area "E" Viceâ€"President openâ€" ‘cd the workshop. which was atâ€" tended by many principals of North York Schools. Mr. A. W. Chariton.

In the industrial areas, emergency coffee breaks were held to obâ€" serve the gaping tourists In suburbia, housework was abanâ€" doned to watch the intrusion of privacy. Children _ stared _ as though the buses had dropped out of space. Despite the disturbance crea ted by the tourists, the trip was very successful and in the opâ€" inion of this writer should be held more frequently for the benefit of the many residents who are genuinely interested in the township they live in and who strive in their own areas to better the community.
