years are anxious to proceed council received a letter at a planning board meeting may 2 from a firm of solicitors acting for the majority of owners the lots involved are 10 acres in size and located on cone 6 south of the aurora road plans were originally presented to whitchurch township council in 1965 but difficulties arose because most of the lots do not front on a public road as required by law each owner would be required to give up 35 feet across the front of his lot and undertake responsibility for paying off the cost of roadbuilding under the local im provements act one owner however has refused to co operate and another cannot be found in addition realignment of local governments further held up the issuance of building permits planning board seemed generally favorable to the wishes of owners to go ahead with their houses i feel we should do all we can to proceed with this observed councillor gordon ratcliff he pointed out that these would be highclass houses of more than 2000 square feet each mayor ken laush- way agreed the matter deserved con sideration and added that york region will be involved councillor ratcliff agreed and proposed a motion to lorward the issue to the regions area services branch for consideration mayor laushway warned that the region might be un favorable considering this another strip development if ttiev turn it down on the grounds of
