causing some concern among a group of farm residents in the srea on monday night a dele gation headed by mr russell gostick asked the advice of the township council in solving the problem he suggested that either the township should take action and return the creek to its original watercourse inside the boundary line of the proper ty of mr alex gray or give the deputation permission to move it mr gostick informed the council that the stream had been dry throughout much of the summer he noted that one resident was using large quanti ties of water and had installed a pressure pump last spring it was suggested that the water was being used in a private swimming pool councillor harvey spang fa voured some type of action that would put the stream back in its original location he con tended that in time it would prove a threat to the townships road not council mutter it seems to me that if we take any stand at all we would be taking sides in a dispute that is actually a problem between two propertyowners said government municipal and corporation bonds preferred and common shares inquiries invited russell beare 213 main street markham phone 2941523 subagtnt of wood gundy company limited councillor milton mowbray i dont think we need concern ourselves with the matter councillor mowbray pointed out that he could readily sym pathize with the farmers for their concern but he did not feel that the municipality should leave itself open to court action what happens if our road is damaged questioned council lor harvey spang we would then take steps to protect it answered mr mowbray councillor mowbray contend ed that the municipality had no proof that the party in ques tion had no legal right to take the water from the stream it was admitted that the pipe had been laid under the road some fifteen years ago when a for mer township reeve had acqui sition to the property if we move the stream we are taking the water away from a man who is now using it continued mr mowbray we would then have to extend the pipe he may have a legal right to use the water no one seems to know said mr gostick it is a matter of private rights and the only way it can be settled is in the courts said councillor mowbray not concerned reeve sherman scott noted that whatever action the delega tion wished to take would not be the concern of the council it is between yourselves and the other party he said mr gostick said that the stream skirted the road allow ance for a distance of about 300 feet he suggested that it would cost about 200 to re turn it to its former location this is a legal problem and the municipality should not be come involved agreed council lor w j greening pickering tp population over 20000 the population in the town ship of pickering has soared to 20652 this is an
