2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, January 22, 1962 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN IS BOARD READY TO MOVE, FINALLY? There was news out of Ottawa today about Oshawa's controversial King street railway tracks. The Board of Transport Commissioners will write the CNR today to get the railway's views on the pro- posed removal of this municipal eyesore. The City's application to the Board to have the tracks removed was forwarded to the railway early in December. : "Normally, we allow a 20-day period in which re- sponses to such applications are to be received," a Board spokesman told the Ottawa correspondent of this paper. "However, because of the intervention of the holiday period, a few more days was allowed. We are sending out a tracer Monday to get an early reply from the CNR." Continued the spokesman: If the CNR objected to the tracks' removal, then the City would be asked to comment on the CNR's at- titude. If the CNR did not object, the Board might possibly be able to issue an order for their removal quickly with- out a formal hearing. The Board has not made any direct approach to the three firms using the tracks. It was supposed that the railway would be fully con- versant with the attitude of these firms and would make known the objections of its customers when it replies to the Oshawa application. Labor Minister Michael Starr said last December that because of the "comparatively" small amount of traffic over the tracks that he did not think the CNR would register any objection to their abandonment. The Board spokesman made it clear that if any "third parties" had objections then the Board was will- ing to hear them, either by written submissions or at a formal board hearing. The City negotiated with the three downtown firms that use the King street CNR tracks for an amicable settlement during Lyman Gifford's mayoralty regime; although the details of these pow-wows were never re~ vealed, there is no reason to believe that any sizeable progress was made towards settlement. One of these meetings, held in the City Hall, April 8, 1953, lasted three hours. Present at the meeting were Ww. C. Hymus, industrial commissioner for the CNR, E. R. Dalrymple, freight traffic manager for the CNR (sent here by President Donald Gordon. of the CNR); Mayor Gifford, E: G. McNeely, City solicitor, and rep- resentatives of the three firms. As a result of this meeting, a second get-together was held between the same parties April 27 in the City Hall. The City pretty well decided at this time, after numefous consultations with the CNR and other inter- ested parties, that it should make application itself to the Board for the removal of the tracks. "I WONDER WHAT THE PUBLIC THINKS ?" Dear Sir: I would like to invite the public to drive out to 1194 King street east, my home, and see what is happening: The City has issued a permit for the construct- ion of a house projecting out 25 feet ahead of the houses on both sides of it. The house, in question at 1190 King street east next to mine, is already under construction. The roof is on, Furthermore, I was treated unfairly at a City Planning Board meeting January 9th, when the mat- ter was brought up. I wasn't even asked to speak, although I had a petition of 13 names to support me (they are immediate neighbors), The Planning Board refused to alter the situa- tion. ; I talked to quite a few members of Council and the Planning Board and they said they wouldn't want such a monstrosity in front of their living room 'Beck Gets Appeal On Taxes Evasion SAN FRANCISCO (AP)--Dave|Beck reported a total of $212,063 \Beck, former Teamster union jboss, won a reversal and new jtrial Saturday on charges he jevaded more than $240,000 in jtaxes on money borrowed or lembezzled from the union.

In each rate fight, there have been loud protests before the board of transport from eight of the 10 provinces--all but Quebec and Ontario, where alternative transport tends to keep freight rates down. It was the public outcry after the last freight rate boost--a 17- per-cent jump in late 1958--that led to establishment of the Mac- Pherson commission. port, due early this year, will [contain results of special re- search studies. | The first report last April pro- posed a series of shrinking fed-| eral subsidies to help the rail-! ways shed uneconomic passen-| \ger trains and unprofitable! branch lines, as well as offset} losses incurred in handling Prai- rie export grain shipments.

ARROW POINTS TO 1190 KING ST. E EDITOR'S NOTE: City Engineer Fred Crome says that the house in question, at 1190 King street east, is set back 42 feet as compared with 65 feet for Mr. Pere- pelitza's house (to the east) and 65 feet for the house to the west. He says the permit was issued for 1190 King east because a 20-foot set-back is all that is currently necessary under the bylaw. The Planning Board could have requested an amendment to the bylaw ask- ing that all properties be set back 65 feet in this area (formerly a part of East Whitby Township), Mr. Crome said, however, Mr. Perepelitza did not officially pro- test the set-back until construction was well under way, he stated. A spokesman for the Planning Board admitted that this was a "blatant" example of bad planning, but he said that the neighbors had notification of this con- struction when the builder appeared before the Court of Adjustment and notices were sent out. "That was the legal time to make a protest and attempt to reach some settlement with the builder," said the Board spokesman. There is no general bylaw that covers this set-back rule, except in some sections of the city like Simcoe street north. City Council recently requested that the City Clerk write Mr. Perepelitza, 'with regret" and tell him that nothing can be done in the matter as the frontage of 1190 King street east is permissible by bylaw.
