WHITBY FREE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, MAY 23, 1979, PAGE 9 Gartshore breaks tie in favor of Walnut Street widening Although Mayor Jim- Gart- shore broke the tie vote in favor of the widening and reconstruction of Walnut Street last week, the work will not be in progress until the town receives approval from the provincial Ministry of Transportation and Communications. As the reconstruction of streets is one of the projects that is subsidized by the Province of Ontario, the municipality can not proceed with the work until, and if, it receives the approval of the Ministry of Transportation and Communications. Councillor Barry Evans brought forth an amendment to the motion that Walnut Street be reconstructed and widened only to the 28-foot width instead of having it widened to 32 feet. Voting in favor of the 28-foot width were Council- lors Joe Bugelli, Gerry Emm and Barry Evans. Voting Church auétion Saturday The 4 W's Couples Club of St. Mark's.

Youths nabbed by police Alert police officers while on patrol in Whitby noticed some suspicious actions around a parked van on one of the town streets last week. As Constables Murphy and Moore investigated the- unusual goings on, they caught two youths in the process of attempting to steal stereo tapes from the parked van, police said. Apprehended by the two officers -are« Raymond Williamson 18 of 175 Tulloch Drive and Patrick Delany 17 of 47 Dryer Drive, Ajax. The youths were apprehended about 1 a.m. May 16 police said. The two youths are scheduled to appear in the Whitby Court on charges of attempted theft and being in possession of stolen goods. Also during the early hours of May 16 the Whitby Divi- sion of the Durham Regional Police Force, received a report that six flags and flag poles were stolen from the Kedron Dells Golf Course, Inspector David Fleming said. against the 28-foot width in favor of widening Walnut street to 32 feet were; Councillors Bob Attersley, Joe Drumm, and Bob Carson. The tie vote was then broken by Mayor Gartshore who is in favor of Walnut Street being widened to 32 feet, thus the Council passed the resolution that Walnut Street be reconstructed and widened to a 32 foot width. As the "disappointed" and disgruntled residents of Walnut Street left the Council Chambers such remarks as "it is ail cut and dried" and "when is the date of the next election," could be heard. Another voice said, "Council is overlooking the regards of the people in the neighborhood to service the newer urban developers in the area." As he made his presenta- tion to the Council opposing the widening of Walnut Street Gary Berry, 'spokes- man for the 'anti-widening group said, "we recognize that improvements have to be made in an established residential area and that should be taken into conside- ration" in place of trying to consider the people of the newly developed subdivision in the area. "In the established parts of the old Town of Whitby people can go down the side streets to the main roads such as Brock and Cochrane 3treets. In the subdivisions it is like a community within a community," Mr. Berry pointed out. He showed Council the lifference by using two maps, one wih the network of sidestreets that forms the old established areas of the Town and the other with the subdivision plan which has only one entrance into the subdivision and . this main street or road circles throughthe subdivision back out onto the main thorough- fares through the entrance. In other words there is just one outlet and inlet to the subdivisions and if the Town has Walnut Street widened "it' is going to become a straightthoroughfare right TAKE NOTICE THAT a Public Meeting of The Liquor Licence Board of Ontario will be held at THE ROYAL CANADIAN LEGION HALL, 217 MURRAY STREET, PETERBOROUGH, ONTARIO, on THURSDAY, JUNE 14th, 1979, at the hour of 10:00 o'clock in the forenoon, at which time the Board will hear applications for new li- cences in accordance with The Liquor Licence Act, 1975 and Regulations thereunder.

A road width of 32 feet is not necessary," Mr. Berry said. During the discussion it was learned that the Kins- men Club who donated Kins- men Park to the Town was not aware of the fact that plans are underway for the widening of Walnut Street. The home owners in the area are concerned for the safety of the children who use Kinsmen Park which abuts- directly onto Walnut Street. Councillor Attersley said to Town Clerk Wallace, "in other words you notified the home owners of the proposed street widening." Mr. Wallace replied that he had. Spokesman for the pro- widening group Oscar Moore, who was a member of the Town Council in 1954, stated during« the discussion before Council, "you all realize you've got a problem here with water holes," as he commented about the condi- tion of the roadside gutters. "Council has spent a lot of money on the groundwork for this project, I think now we should go forth with the street instead of letting Council spend all that money for nothing." Councillor Carson pointed out during the debate that, "you're not going to dis- courage cars on that street. No matter what you do, people will go down Walnut Street.

Councillor Evans who moved for the Walnut Street width to be 28 feet main- tained, "a wide street through the centre of Town will destroy the neighbor- hood and we should put people ahead of autos. A wide street through the centre of the Town is going to destroy the character of the Town."
