Legislation which could pro- hibit or regulate the keeping of cattle in urban areas was de- scribed. as "vicious" by Mayor Lyman Gifford Tuesday night. Cattle in R2 zones was just one of seven specific complaints listed by Lake Vista Ratepayers Association Vice-president Terry O'Connor last night before the council, Others were the city's weed control policy, the Oshawa Creek stench, needed (three) traffic signs and signals and im- proved police protection. They were referred to the relevant committees, "IT question whether we can keep cattle off land used as farmland before the zoning by- law, no matter what the zoning now," stated the mayor. CITY HAS POWER When assured by City Solicitor E. G. McNeely=«the city has power to draft such a bylaw, councii voted (seven for) for Ald, Finley Dafoe's motion to investigate methods of draft- ing legislation to "clean up the' ituation". -- Ald. Dafoe said a bylaw should call for facilities--water and shelter--for cattle kept on any pasture. "This unceasing battle with Druz (Philip Druz, who leases pastureland in south Oshawa) has been going on for 11 years," he said. In answer to a question, Mr. McNeely told council such a by- law would be "regulatory" and quite separate from the Zoning Operations Director Appointed By Council Oshawa's year long search for' a director of operations came to an end in couficil Tues- day night as the city fathers gave formal approval to Kevin C.

The city has taken a two year lease om the space, with an option to renew for one year. Certain city Hall facilities will still be available to the staff because of the short distance between the two buildings. The new office is still on the city hall switchboard.

Mr. Martin said that if any elig- ible voter does not' find his name on the voter's list, that person should call 728-7391 and an enumerating officer will take care of the situation. He also suggested the alternative method of applying to the Court of Revision on Sept. 13 if a voter's name does not appear.

With the long holiday weekend just past, the need to replace the used stock is badly needed. R. H. Stroud, chairman of the local Red Cross Donor Service, stressed this point today. It is hoped that the response of the new and old do- nors will make this the largest September Clinic for Oshawa. Many donors have been away all or part of the summer an it is hoped that they have re- turned feeling fit. With their help plus new doners the com- mittee anticipate an appreci- able rise in the amount of blood contributed. It is gratifying to note that Two Injured In Collision A collision between an auto- mobile and a truck Tuesday, on Bloor street west near Direct Winters Transport depot, sent two men to the Oshawa General Hospital, The driver of the car, Leonar- do Lafabiana, 38, of 25 Ontario street, suffered rib injuries while his passenger, Stano Giu- seppe, 43, of 169 Athol street east, suffered injuries to his left arm and tooth.

PROGRESSIVE CITY Ald, Branch said Oshawa is a "cosmopolitan and progressive" city. He foresees improved hotel facilities here if the questions are carried. He reminded that neighboring municipalities such as Whitby, Cobourg and Peterborough have voted for the two types of out- lets to be listed on Oshawa bal- lots. If these questions receive the required 60 percent majority, the sale of wine and beer will be allowed on tyhe same prem- ises, reported Ald. Branch. He told council City Solicitor E. G. McNeely brought this informa- tion back with him from Toron- to. In committee nine nights ago,. council agreed to put the two liquor questions on the ballot. Beer outlets for home consump- tion (retail stores) failed get on a separate Annexed Area ballot and an amendment calling for all possible 'questions (nine) to go on such a ballot was also defeated. »
