LETTER OF OBJECTION "As you are aware we have received a letter of objection from Mr. Martin Chizen on be- half of himself and a number of residents. "Mr. Chizen is the owner of some vacant land bounded by Hickory, Ash, John and Chest- nut streets. In the old zoning bylaw the area in question was designated as In the draft of the proposed of- ficial plan Mr. Chizen has indi- cated that his property was designated as high density resi- dential which was very satis- factory to the residents. In May of 1961 the Planning Board amended the proposed draft of- ficial plan and redesignated the area to restricted industrial. The residents of the area and Mr. Chizen apparently strongly oppose this restricted industrial designation. "In addition, Mr. Chizen ob- ing line between the industrial the opinion that the industrial lands extend too far in a north- erly and easterly direction which will make the balance of the residential land very hard to plan and develop.

E. P. Dun- of the Toronto Transport Com- by Rotarian George Bevan. Mr. Duncan said that the lack and misuse of transport causes a great deal of trouble. This is a problem which may well be- come greater he said, as the 000,000 in 1980, Of the 1980 popu- lace 80 per cent will live in urban areas, Mr. Duncan con- tinued. Of the urban population of the coming years, he went on, 50 100,000 density. At present, he |said, Metro Toronto gains 50,000 people a year. At the present irate in 1980 there will be 4,000,- 000 workers who will have to be transported to and from work, Mr. Duncan stated. NEED PARKING One of the major difficulties facing transport authorities, he continued, is the increase in the number of automobiles. these four million workers there | walt be 2,500,000 cars which will need 12 square miles of parking space. The government is. al- ready doing all it can to facil-| itate road services, Mr. Duncan said, and it is estimated $7,000,- 000, 000 will be spent in the next 18 years. Road building is not the only expenditure that is incurred with the growth of road using vehicles, he said, there will also To Spend $700 Preserve Trees | For the second successive year, Whitby's tree budget will |be spent in preserving the trees the town now has, rather than planting new trees. The streets committee, in a jreport to council, recommend- led that $700 (approximately) be lspent for preventative Dutch Elm diseases spraying. The committee, in its report to council, advised R. P.

"Neither is the right solution," Mr. Duncan said, ."'we must use both." This is a problem which is rapidly becoming urgent, he said, as the urban sprawl in- creases. People who have moved out to semi-rural areas }now ask for public transport, he stated, and as there are usually) only two trips a day this is not an economic proposition for the transit commission. There are two solutions, Mr. Duncan said,) either subsidize the transport} authorities for the uneconomic} operations or have more cars coming into towns which would take its own toll in traffic con-| gestion.

Chief Howard Nickling said he chased the accused on foot when he observed him driving in an erratic manner in the village. In his opinion, he said, the accused was intoxicated. He said that Robichaud's speech was slurred, he smelled strengly of alcohol and had difficulty in walking. The ac-! cused admitted that he had) several drinks that night, he| said.
