Coliuncil* gix es grucn light to crematorium Facility to be buit at Evergreen Cemetery Milton counicil gave thse green ligIsI Monday to Evergreen Cemetery for thse creation of a crematorium. Following approval of a site plan, the eurrent works garage at the rear of thse Ontario Street property will be converted into a crematorium. A new works garage is to be built behind thse current building. Jin DuOls, a miemrber of the Evergreen Cemetery board and chairman of the cre- matorium committee, previously told The Champion thse move is designed to, meet a growing demnand. "Trends in thse grievmng industry are def- initely increasing in thse cremnation area. More and more - 1 think around 40 per cent - deaths involve cremnation. There is a community need." Because of thse rigors of site plan devel- opinent and approval, Mr Difs said there isn't a construction timneline. Owners of mailboxes damaged by Town snow plows this winter are eligible for up to $ 100 for repairs/replacement. Town counicil agreed Monday t0 offer thse compensation and relax thse require- ments 10 qualify for thse funds after a staff recommendation to do so was presented at thse November 26 Milton community serv- ices commnittee meeting. The committee recommendation to counicil called for up to $50 compensation, but Councillor John Challinor suggested tIsat was too little. "I think $100 is more appropriate." vMore sidewalks to be cleared An additional 15 km of sidewalks in Milton will be cleared of snow Ibis winter. Town counicil approved the action Monday. In previous years, lIse Town bas cleared 30 km of the 120 km of sidewalks. Areas cleared include thse downtown, sehool routes and major pedestrian traffie areas.
