LIFE t- By CLARKE Member Aurora Planning Board As you have seen if you have read the previous three articles the Aurora Planning Board has obligations to two authorities The first is the town council which applied to the provincial department of planning and had Aurora declared a planning area The council then appointed the planning board which is com posed of six members two ap pointed each year for three years with the addition of two mem bers of council and the mayor as member The plan ning board reports annually and more frequently when requested to the town council The town council frequently seeks the op inion of the board The second authority is the provincial department of plan ning All actions of the planning board must conform to the terms of the Provincial Planning Act Previous to the appointment of a planning board Aurora did not have adequate legislation to reg ulate location of residences Fre quently there was inadequate space between buildings and overcrowding After careful study of the way other munici palities handled this question the planning board drafted a by law to regulate the use of land in these respects for residential purposes This draft was the basis of a bylaw which is now in effect Aurora It should protect all property owners against future overcrowding and ensure reasonable space in front of all residences A careful study was made of all land in Aurora in relation to industrial sites business areas residential areas green belts and these in relation to streets sew er facilities water availability etc The recommendations of the planning board were present ed to council at a joint meeting and the results of this study were incorporated in a Basic Land Use Plan which gives the town a great measure of authority in protecting itself and its resi dents The new proposed bylaw re ferred to in the third article is intended to state more clearly the will of the council and the town in the broad application of this bylaw For instance a broad industrial area is located but Main Phone J in Life Association tentative tobile and casualty 5 AIM- THE VARIETY OF DESIGNS la our collection of MONU MENTS la sack thai a mm almost

is true of residential areas some of which should be limited to single fam ily dwellings others will permit multiple family dwellings The mention of green belts leads readily to the broad ques tion of conservation It was the judgment of the planning board that the population of Aurora can be limited by the present water supply but if the water supply were protected or increas ed a community of much greater size might be adequately accom modated Of course it might be argued that Lake Simcoe could yield a limitless supply of water well yes and at what price Is that the solution Our present water supply apparently has its rise within a radius of three miles to the south and south west and southeast On several occasions the Aurora Planning Board has taken the initiative in urging a conservation authority in relation to the Holland River of which the streams in Aurora are branches We hope that an early meeting of representatives of Aurora Newmarket the townships of King and Whitchurch and others will set up an authority to do a constructive piece of work on this important matter With not too great an effort the authority could protect the present water supply and add beauty and wealth to Aurora and its envir ons It may be too late to re create water courses sufficient to run as many mills as were at one time operating on these streams but much could be done and should be done The green belt also brings up the question of parks In its early days the planning board had numerous meetings with every sort of society or group to discover the will of active people regarding the future hopes and fears for Aurora The recrea tion commission and the plan ning board met and surveyed many areas for future parkland The low lying area along the creek from the junction of and Kennedy St to Cous ins Lane is now deeded to Aurora on the instigation of the planning board for park purposes This area could be extended further south to complete a siable park Such a park would give enjoy ment to young and old and could be a drawing card for potential residents A subsequent article will deal with two or three additional phases of the planning problem including subdivision procedure under the Planning Act Landing Team Honored The members of the Holland Landing public school hockey team were guests of honor at a banquet in the community hall on Thursday night The team won the East pub lic school hockey championship Following the banquet films of wildlife were shown Toasts were proposed to the teachers answered by Lome principal of the school to the boys answered by Peter Walker

sense in the improve ments being made at the school He said that the village trustees were right behind the school in its work and stressed the im portance of good schools in the community Eldon
