years only the main roads the bad hills and intersections were treated in this manner she said Increased costs in petroleum and related materials has also elevated road maintenance costs As an example the cost of surface treating one mile of road in 1978 was approximately $7800 said Coun Jans The cost to surface treat the same mile in 1979 will be approx imately $10000 As well the public works committee budgeted for $33000 new backhoe unit The unit said Coun Jans has twice the capacity of the present ditching machine Increases in the cost of gasoline hydro and telephone also played large

year it costs morejust to maintain the same services he said The budget was approved later in the year than usual because it was continually reworked to be made realistic said Reeve William Gibbins

whatever else came back we knew had to eat him and we did We were so damn close to God we knew the man was looked after he was in peace want it known that we werent ashamed We knew it was right God told us it was right We knew it was what Don would have wanted RIPS OLT COVERS Dyer said he and Miss Johnson ripped out the aircrafts seatcovers and wrapped them around their feet for warmth as well as digging into their suitcases for extra clothing We knew we just had to stay with the plane because it was storming for the first few aays and we knew there wouldnt be any search because of the

kidnapping of James Cross CP Photo In planning decisions Proposed Act changes cut avenues of appeal TORONTO CP While proposals for changes in new Ontario planning act have promised cuts in government red tape they also reduce avenues for citizen appeals of municipal planning decisions The proposals tabled Thursday in the legislature take away citizens right for cabinet review of decision by the Ontario Municipal Board However if the housing minister decides the matter is of provincial interest final ap peal still may be made to cabinet Housing Minister Claude Bennett said the cabinet recently has been faced with an in creasing number of local planning problems Cabinet ministers have to take it for granted that 0MB is making the right decisions he said Ministry officials estimated that the cabinet dealt with about 140 local planning disputes last year The proposal would wipe out twothirds of the petitions to the cabinet As well the proposals embodied in white paper provide for more autonomy by munici palities in their planning REDUCES APPEALS The white paper suggested that the OMB be to stay alive But food supplies were scanty Dyer said including only few chocolate bars bag of potato chips granola bar Lifesavers Smarties and cough candies We tried to hoard them the best we could he said We got to the pomt where wed take one cough candy and break it in half Dyer said the

also found piece of polished tin which reflected the suns rays Before they decided to leave the crash site they climbed nearby rise and looked out on the maze of mountains Realizing their isolation Dyer said they just fell apart It was the memory of home family and friends that roused them to fighting Spirit he said reduced to an appellate agency which hears appeals against municipal decisions It ex plained that the new role of the OMB would speed up hearings and decrease the number of frivolous appeals Under present procedures the OMB ap proves all municipal zoning and hears ap peals on planning matters The proposals would strip the OMB of its zoning approval authority and call for OMB zoning hearings only if the zoning is challenged Herb Epp IiWaterloo North said citizens will lose an important right to appeal OMB decisions if the proposals become law These changes would allow the govern ment to avoid issues where politically con venient and to intervene where it may be politically expedient he said However Bennett doubted that the citizen is losing any rights noting that the system is being refined As well the paper has placed the onus on municipalities to inform citizens of bylaw and zoning changes before final council approval is made DO 0H
