Stress Need For Regional The urgent need for more ef} fective regional planning for the areas of Whitby, Whitby Town- ship, Oshawa, Darlington Town- ship and Bowmanville was ex- pressed Wednesday night at a meeting called by the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce. Lloyd Bolahood, chairman of the Com- mercial Affairs Committee of the Oshawa Chamber, acted as chairman. The purpose of the meeting was to discuss regional planning and its importance to the future development of the afea. Interested citizens attending were Charles World, president of the Oshawa C of C; Allan Banfield and Lioyd Bolahood, of Oshawa; Larry Cond, Gordon Richards and Bob Cocker, Whit- by; George Lofthouse and Gor- don Lofthouse, Whitby Town- ship; Bill Lycett, Bowmanville; Morley Wyman, Bill Henry and Haroki Watson, Darlington Township and Douglas Fisher and Jack Mann of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce. ACTIVITIES REVIEWED «Morley Wyman, a past chair- man of the Darlington Township Planning Board and a past member of the present Regional Planning Association, reviewed the activities of the Regional Planning Association. He felt that more effective regional planning was urgently needed. The Regional Planning Asso- ciation which was formed in 1956 had a study madé by plan- ning consultants in 1960. This study covered the area popula- tion from 100,000 people to a forecast population of 400,000 people. It revealed the need for Plan an area planning board and 'an area utility board. Bill Lycett, Bowmanville, was to inform the general pub- of regional planning. Mr. Lycett said that if we are to preserve must plan as-an area or we will tan Toronto. COULD SOLVE PROBLEMS Bill Henry, Darlington Town- ship, stated that many of the problems now confronting the municipalities could be over- come by authoritative regional planning. Mr. Henry added that such a Planning Board would have to have some authority to make it effective. Gordon Richards, Whitby Town Chamber of Commerce, stated he felt part of the reason why a regional planning board had not been set up was be- cause the municipalities feel they would lose the autonomy jof their planning boards. Mr. Richards was in favor of re- gional government as well as re- gional planning. Larry Cond, manager of Whit- by Chamber and _§Industrial Commissioner, reaffirmed the} need for making the general) public aware of the necessity of, regional planning. Mr. Cond/ stated he felt. communities like! St. Catharines, which is now a regional city, will in 10 years be much ahead of communities gional plan. Gordon Lofthouse, Whitby Accused Ignored Fumigation Orders Failure to comply with two city health department fumiga- tion orders cost William Sacks, King street west, $50 in cines Wednesday in Oshawa Magis- trate's court. : The evidence showed that Sacks had allowed vermin on residential and commercial properties owned by him in the downtown section of Simcoe north. Although twice ordered t. fumigate the buildings, he failed to do within seven days. "You must understand, sir, that when the department of health gives you such an order, you must carry it out," said Megistrate Harry Jermyn. ; Sacks, who pleaded guilty to both counts of bylaw violation, was fined $25 ond costs or five days on each of the two counts.
