The Reeve continued: "On a split vote of council the majority were in favour of granting this permit and as the permit has already been issued by council no means' exist at the present time for council to withdraw this license." Although the dele- gation was not trtttisiied with the explanations given it ma con- tinued to harry the councillors about their problem they did agree to let council carry on with other items of business " the personal request of the reeve.

Graham, l Ward 2. moved that council in- l struct the township solicitor ta) prepare a by-law for presenta- ; tion to council in order to insti- tute a library board in the town- i ship effective January lst, 1955, 1 In support of his motion which q was seconded by Councillor Ken 1 Burn, Ward 2. Mr. Graham stat- 1 ed; "In the two months that the; Bookmobile has been in opera- tion it has let out 5,800 books) and it is apparent that a need) exists for a much greater effort l to meet the require-ttr-oi-ous-j population which now is nearing i the 150,000 mark." Deputy-Reeve l H. S. Honsberger of Ward 1 had this to say on the subject," I am 1‘ quite in fabour of a librdry board l and that it should have a liberal l operating allowance but I am i not in favour of creating any ad- _ ditional Boards in this Township ', that would have the legal right of a statutory levy". It was stat- 1 ed that the minimum levy per-i, missable for a Library Board was , 50 cents per person per year. l Reeve McMahon stated: "My opinion is that it is necessary that North York have a proper- ly constituted Library Board and that this is the time for it. Our population by the end ot the year will be close to 150,000 peo- ple and any toin of that size needs proper library facilities. The association library as at at present is not intended to op- erate on a wide basis." It tvas the desire of council that the io. licitor prepare the by-law and at the same time prepare a re- port for the benefit of council. lors that would outline all the regulations and requisites of suchh board.
