reference to the township centennial celebration markham township he said is rapidly changing from a strict ly rural to an urban munici pality we cant stop this growth but we must protect the people who are already here the reeve con tinued mr timbers told his listeners that he favored whatever restric tions possible to keep the town ship what it should be in mentioning amalgamation with the city of toronto he stated that while full amalgamation with the city might not come into being immediately somje amalgamation of services was almost a certainty deputyreeve dalton rumney also returned to office for another term revealed that the county was planning to install two sets of scales in the markham area to assist in protecting township roads from their current beatin from overloaded truck traffic the weed situation in the mun icipality was bad mr rumney stated but it was hoped that a new spraying outfit which the municipality planned to put into operation would help the situ ation mr rumney touched briefly on the newly organized health unit in which eleven municipalities were involved he told the audi ence that the costs of the new unit would be more definitely known after a years operation w l clark stated that the work of council continued to become more and more complex in 1938 he said markham town ship road budget was 25000 while in 1950 it was 75000 this year the townships bill for polic ing was 10000 while only twelve years ago it was 1600 mr clark told the ratepayers that he believed the township had made a right move in accepting the crosby memorial arena and added that it would not involve the municipality in any expense chas hooper stated that when the 1950 council took over they accepted nearly a mill in back debts incurred by the previous council but against this commit ment they had been able to keep the tax rate on an even keel we should be very careful about this change from rural to urban we like to have people come into the township tout they cant expect to have every con venience right away said mr hooper mr hooper stated that many people wanted water but that this was a hard commodity to come by likewise sewers would be a com ing thing and a garbage collection however all these improvements must come gradually i proposed ten years ago that this township should have some hardtop roads we could have built them then for 3000 a mile today these roads would cost 5000 but i still think we should have them mr hooper stated i cant see where the rate- reeve win timbers deputyreeve dalton rumney taxes this year not the present council he believed that the council should throw its weight behind the municipal association in a fight for more assistance from the government for educational costs mrs robert c gee passes at victoria sq in
