The building, presently occupied by Bad Boy Appliances is used as a warehouse for household furniture but it has been conâ€" sidered a problem by residents for some time. Residents are objecting to the amount of trash left lying around. Approximately 70 Miranda area residents appeared before planning board last week to protest the approval of a change in the bylaw and to explain problems they have had in the past with the present firm. The litter currently around the Bad Boy warehouse on Miranda Averue have local residents up in arms but they are even more apprehensive about the moving in of a new operation. _ _ The purchaser, Casselman Company Limited, is engaged in a business that inâ€" volves the distribution of Johnson and Johnson Jâ€"Cloth products and Kimberleyâ€" Clark industrial products, including paper towelling and a towel supply service which includes the manufacture of industrial wipers. All of these operations comply with the intent of the present zoning bylaw but the manufacturer would grade, trim, launder and process used clothing and new mill end remnants, packaging them for sale. The storing of materials prior to the manufacturing process are delivered to the plant baled and wrapped in burlap. It is this that creates infringement of the bylaw. The purchaser of the property has applied to council for a specific exemption. We are protesting this approval," said Mrs. E. Riley, Chamberlain Avenue. Mrs. Riley said that she and her husband have been in their home for over 41 years and that "I‘m sure you‘ll be pleased with the efâ€" fect," clerk H.G.

Mrs. Riley said they didn‘t mind then because there weren‘t as many trucks as there are now. "I wouldn‘t want to live in the end house on Chamberlain," ‘said Mrs. Riley. ‘"The trucks are always parked around there." Mrs. Riley said that she was apprehensive about promises being made by the purâ€" chaser. ‘"They say they are not going to do this and that, but once they get in what can we do about it?

Clerk H. G. Courtman explained to the board that the actual cost for the sod was $2,610. $100 more than what was being asked. Mr. Blade said that when the carnivalarrived at the park there were a lot of bare spots. ‘"‘We tried to do the least amount ‘ of damage," he said. + ‘There is no sense in sitting back.

"It is obvious that the majority of the damage was caused by the carâ€" nival," he said. "The taxpayers shouldn‘t have to pay the full Mr, White said he questioned how far the borough should go in permifting the carnival each year. He reminded Mr. Blade the Recreation rooms for apartments "We can require certain facilities in an apartment building but we can‘t ensure they will be used that way," Peter Allen, comâ€" missioner of planning told council on Monday. Mr. Allen was answering a request by Alderman Peter Bosa that a recreation room for the use of teenagers be provided in a proposed apartment development at the southeast corner of Roselawn and Marlee Avenues. "I‘m not satisfied with this answer," said Mr. Bosa. "There is a need for recreation centres for teenagers in apartment buildings. Mr. Bosa said there is no way teenagers can receive friends in an apartâ€" ment building except in the apartment with the family. "If they wish to have friends in and parents object, there is no place for them to go." Mr. Allen explained that the project was a condominium and a low child occupancy was expected. He said nursery room space could double as a recreation room but that this was not spelt out clearly in recomâ€" mendations. He suggested the addition of a provision to provide the recreation room. Mr. Bosa said the planning department should look for ways to solve the problem and "provide a room instead of a sidewalk." Several members of council questioned the benefits of apartment developers providing recreation rooms citing occasions when rooms have been closed because of excess damage. ‘‘The best laid plans don‘t always work out," said Controller James Trimbee. He reminded council members that the apartments on Emmett Avenue had recreation rooms for use by tenants in the buildings but the amount of damage to the rooms forced the owner to close them. The recreation rooms are ow only available when tenants rent/ them. ‘‘These rooms are more than abused," said Alderman Cy Townsend. "People just don‘t appreciate them." Mayor Philip White said he didn‘t believe recreation rooms solved much but agreed to a stipulation for the developer to provide a 1,000 square foot room.

Fairbank Park was the only park allowing the carnival and the only reason for that was because the borough was in full support of the efforts of the York Lions Club. The carnival is one of the larger fund raising ventures of the club each year. ‘ Controller Douglas Saunders explained to the board that he was a member of York Lions Club but that he still felt it seemed wrong to place the entire cost on one person.
