industry continues on with few- restrictions owners of gravel lands interested in lining their pockets aie opposed to any ruling that could affect the future sale of their properties others not concerned with real estate fear that the township may soon become one giant hole in the ground unless some kind of control is imposed caught in the middle of the to factions arc both the council and

apple to spoil the whole barrel he suggested that ail gravel operators should be bonded in an effort to enforce such agree ments he urged either the reeve or the deputyreeve to in troduce the proposal at the county council level we wont personally opposed to restric- 1 get it unless someone goes after it and no one needs it any more than uxbridge township he said xeed zoning speaking in favour of a zon ing bylaw mr kennedy said tions of that kind since it would halt future sales of gravel lands in the area there are too many gravel pits now countered a spectator from the floor who pays the taxes

between 25 and 30 percent of the municipality was nov divided into ten acre building lots mr nesbitt wa returned to office hy acclamation with reference to ten acre land parcels the deputyreeve said that the township was powerless to do anything about it until the planning board is allowed to control such proper ty separations at 500 to 7ik an acre as compared with land in toronto its a steal he said there is only one industry in uxbridge and thats farming continued mr nesbitt every time a farm is divided we loe an industry we welcome thee purchasers i just hope we all can still afford to live here and help thes people pay for the lots theyve bought the deputyreeve said that it was rather strange thai the townships population should drop by 40 persons but the school attendance had increased by bo with reference to schools mr nesbitt said that the board could not be blamed for rising education costs they must provide the necessary student accommodation he said he predicted that the day would soon come when parents would demand bus transportation for every pupil in the school area township left commented still another code of ethics mr nesbitt explained that the gravel pit industry is gov erned by a verbal code of ethics that calls for all top soil to be retained on the property and for the excavation to be filled in and level led off when the pit is worked out thats fine noted mr ken nedy but it only takes one bad angry but well all he angry if the township goes to pieces he continued its for the general good mr kennedy suggested that a neutral body should be set up to complete a survey of the township which would represent a basis for a zoning bylaw it would cost a few thousand dol lars but if something isnt done there soon will be nothing left to zone area 1

proaching on november 26 nominations for the second board will be open it is with great regret that i shall be un able to stand for reelection to the next board a recent change in my responsibilities at my place ot employment has forced me to withdraw at least for the immediate future from most of tty community activities i am most disappointed be cause i see so much opportunity to advance the elementary edu cation system in our township i believe that the 1965 board has done an outstanding job during the difficult period of transition from the old school section operation to the new school area system however the old board was not content sim ply to adapt to new conditions we undertook to begin planning for the future while many ob stacles lie ahead i was looking forward eagerly to the chal lenge and the ultimate achieve ment of such worthwhile goals while i can not be there 1 hope that the new board for 196667 will pick up the challenge and carry it through my five years as a trustee in pickering town ship have taught me the value and great need to prepare for the future educational require ments if we are to achieve the standards we all seek for our children at this time
