the tribune thursday july 26 uk3 9 hydro yes towers 4 claremont everyone wants the hydro service but no one wants the service line a series of steel transmission towers extending from middleport on the west to pickering on the east one of the alternate routes is parallel to the bloomington road in wnitchurch- stouffville with a jog to the north then east into uxbridge and pickering this proposal was the main subject of discussion at a public meeting in claremont public school july 12 whitchurchstouffville councillor merlyn baker pointed out that con sideration had been given the niagara escarpment yet the ridges also an im portant land formation had not been looked on as favorably consultant bruce howlett of the solandt commission said the newmarket to oshawa route had been envisioned because of the proposed airport project in pickering mayor gordon ratcliff of whitchurch- stouffville maintained his desire to place the line along the parkway belt he noted however that he was concerned over any proposal that would place the route east of hwy 404 through vandorf f b munroe rr 1 gormley charged that residents in the vandorf area had been completely ignored by hydro he urged that the line go west of hwy 404 rather than east a 650 foot wide swath of high voltage lines running along the east side of hwy 404 is exactly the kind of condition that should be avoided he said brougham family moves on brougham the pending airport project in the twp of pickering could remove the hamlet of brougham from the map but as far as don gibbings is concerned brougham as a community is already gone mr gibbings his wife thelma his daughter barbara two cats and a dog have already pulled up stakes and moved to powassan 18 miles north of north bay hes not happy at leaving but feels he had little alternative besides he says the brougham of today is not the brougham of 1965 the year he arrived from toronto there was a time when all the neighbors were the best of friends he said but it was like somebody dropped a knife blade between the houses when they announced the airport some were for it and some against it and even though they would sit next to each other in church they wouldnt talk to each other it just broke up the whole community spirit mr gibbings still isnt convinced the airport will be a reality at least not in pickering he feels the government plans to stockpile the property for a land bank he argues authorities have had their eye on the area for some time in addition to leaving mr gibbings isnt happy with the price hes been offered it has been valued at 28700 but hes fighting for more the house was built in 1869 and is located on a half- acre of land its heartbreaking concurs mrs gibbings theyre not giving us todays price for the house and property but you can only take this kind of upset so long greenwood electronics pa systems 58 main w stouffville 6402440 wkyarown raspberries beans i fresh all vegetables eggs in season pick from

does the town plan to acquire the site for this or some other purpose the project is not dead mayor gordon ratcliff told the tribune this week despite a decision by the library development committee to locate their building on a separate site mayor ratcliff feels theres a real need for a curling rink in town a venture that in his opinion deserves assistance through the municipality he said an agreement would be worked out with developers of the thicketwood subdivision booth farm to provide about three ares of land to the town the mayor feels the property should be acquired if not for some type of building then as an addition to the park question it there is no shortage of hater at the reservoir site why is the use restricted during the summer months answer the restriction is in force not to conserve water but to maintain pressure particularly in stouffvilles east end if everyone in town had their lawn hose turned on at the same time it would result in a major pressure drop i feel that lawn- watering on a bvsts of three days a week creates no hardship on anyone we have had excellent cooperation from residents question is farming as a way of life on the way out in the rural area of whitchurch stouffville what can be done to preserve the agricultural productivity of farm lands answer farming is not on the way out in whitchurchstouffville in fact it never looked better i feel the province of ontario and the region of york should designate certain lands for agri cultural purposes and stick by it this would halt speculative buying of farm properties we have 17000 acres of- choice farm land here and i feel it will continue to be farmed for many years our main problem is with 25 acre lots theyre too small to farm and too large to maintain its something well have to deal with question who is responsible for the cutti ng of weeds along the car line in town answer canadian national railways are responsible and ive contacted them about it with no success ive had several complaints from residents on burkholder street whose properties back onto the on line if there is no action the town will have to move in and do the job the cost should be on a charge back arrangement but since the railroad pays no taxes we cant work it in this way aoww- xk1im i summer r if s m price ms 40 h7816 h78- wheel balance buul tre ne u m iff aj mi oh pltttt h781 j ea m installation 199 per
