NEWMARKET York Region has entered the battle to maintain local power over the development of gravel pits and quarries Regional planners are determined to prevent erosion of the power that allows municipalities a say in the site choice and development of quarries and in the use of the empty pits following completion of mining issue surfaced planning committee meeting when the committee was asked to comment on a Mono Township brief Mono has come out firmly against a recommendation of the government sponsored Ontario Mineral Aggregate Working Party that would eliminate municipal authority over quarries The Mono resolution further suggests that pits should be developed in remote unpopulated parts of the province that have been shown to be ecologically suitable Full rehabilitation of the empty pits should be funded by pit owners it adds Noting that there are several abandoned pits in York Region committee chairman David urged that attention be given to rehabilitation of if sites Its not enough simply to run a scraper around them he said Most of the quarries in York are located in the southern parts of the region Housekeeping contractor to be replaced by region NEWMARKET The

municipalities should be getting a piece of the financial action Proper planning for the placement of future quarries would reduce friction between nearby residents and quarry operators said planning commissioner Weinberg But those people who build homes knowing that quarries are near their property should not be allowed to interfere with pit operation he added The matter has been referred to regional planning staff who will make recommendations to the committee on quarry development and restriction and retention of municipal authority In addition the region will request a joint the of Natural Resources and representatives of Metropolitan Toronto York Peel and Durham regions NEWMARKET The province is taking too long to process welfare claims and the delay is costing municipalities too much money That was the con clusion of the regional health and social services committee recently as they considered a request to support a resolution of condemnation from Durham Region Municipalities are responsible for sup porting applicants for both family benefits longterm support and general welfare assistance shortterm support until the province has processed their claims The province has said that applications are processed in an average of days the resolution says But municipalities have found the wait to be about four months on the average it continues And although some backdating provisions are made for cases of lengthy processing municipalities are still forced to lay out too much money for the pickup period it argues Such expenditure makes compliance with financial restraints much more difficult if not Impossible to achieve Durham concludes That region would like to see the province process all applications in the days it claims are necessary or make good to municipalities any money paid out for support beyond the days Regional council has endorsed the resolution and will notify the provincial ministry of community and social services of its
