DeputyReeve Earle Williams supported the grant but noted that the ball park is owned by the Ivy Womens In stitute and therefore is not eligible for provincial subsidies for improvement projects If it

County Federation of Agriculture 8500 Beeton Agricultural Society $23 Bar rie Agricultural Society $50 ookstown Fair $50 Alliston Training and Employment en tre $175 and Utopia Recreation Committee $125 Parkland policy illegal board to ask for change Planning board has agreed to drop demand for about $4000 cash instead of parkland from developer after learning that the demand is illegal However the developer Rockford Developments Ltd will still include more parkland in its tltiliomc 107acre sub division on the northwest cor her of Bayview Drive and Little Avenue than can legally be demanded David White lawyer for Rockford appeared before city council earlier this week to at tack the parkland demand as completely improper and it legal The citys policy of deman ding an acre of parkland for every 100 units in subdivision has no basis in law he said and the city can only demand live per cent of the land subdivi sions for parks under the Plan ning Act Five per cent of the Rockford subdivision comes to about half an acre bu the citys formula $1850 in fines levied against Barrie Air pilot Donald Fish owner of Barrie Air Services has been charged with flying an aircraft while under suspension and fined $1830 Fish pleaded quilty to three charges brought against him by the RfMl under the Aero nautics Act Tuesday in Barrie provincial criminal court lrish had his licence suspend ed alter suffering injuries in an accident July 1074 Doctors then found him medically unfit to fly Two charges involved Fish flying from Barrie to the United States in March 1975 while third involved him flying with the asSIstance of another licenced pilot Judge Norman Nadeau fined Fish $750 for each of the two charges in which he piloted planes hiinsell and $330 for the charge involving second pilot lie was given 60 days to pay Anyone charged under the act faces up to $5000 in fines or year in jail or both Reduction request refused ity council has refused request to reduce lot levies and underground parking requirements for proposed Illstorey apartment building to be built by Victor Savin on the west side of Kozlov Street The request was made on the grounds that the project cannot

subdivision in fact contains 0823 acres and Rockford was to be required to make up the difference in cash IS llSllllEl Tity planner Rick Jones told planning board Tuesday the higher requirement is justified lrom planning point of view because of todays high residcn tial densities but said he had learned from city solicitor Rowe that the city would lose if the 0898Cl9 demand were ap pealed to the Ontario Municipal Board In addition to dmpping the cash requirement an action which must go to city council for approval the board voted to ask council to adopt bylaw under section 35 bl of the Plan ning Act to give the city authority to ask for one acre of parkland for each 130 units the maximum possible under the act and to use that standard as policy so far as possible in the meantime Jones said such bylaw would probably take six months to put into force Meanwhile he said the cit should at least try to persuade developers to meet the one acreforl20 units standard because the fivepercent policy just doesnt work He noted that developers have been going along with the oneacrefoiwloo units policy since it was instituted four years ago TllEE KNOWN Its always been illegal and all developers havo known about it he said While also objected this week to condition requiring Rockford to contribute half the cost of rccoiistiucting Ray and Little where they adjoin the property The board took no action on this objection which will be dealt with by council BARRIE 7265400 Our secret ingredient grows on grapefruit trees We dont use any artificial color or flavor in Squirt We
