LIND COUNCIL It seems strange that council being issued 'that go If the council is blind, the electors will replace them. If about it? At every council meet- ing (at least the ones we're in- formed of) there are at least half a dozen people asking coun- cil to amend the bylaw or com- plaining of poor treatment. The answer to that question is simple. Council is doing some- thing about it. They're getting deeper and deeper in trouble with no sight of the bottom. Case after case where the| Township Building Inspector (E. A. Varcoe) issued permits, the council later said the permits should not have been given out. And now, these cases are backing up against a wall. But to start blaming someone or a group of people without giving a little background to go with it would be unfair. ZONING HISTORY To begin with, Darlington's zoning bylaw came into exis- tence Feb. 5, 1959. It was pre- pared by the Darlington Plan- ning Board with the help of the Municipal Planning Consultants Co. Ltd., of Toronto and ap- proved by council on the above date. At that time Roy W. Nichols of Courtice was Reeve (now a member of Bowmanville town council); Garnet Rickard was deputy - reeve (now township reeve); and Fred Smith, A. E. Thompson and E, B. Trull were councillors. Mr. Smith is the only one now on council. The members of planning board at that time were M. D. Wyman (chairman); V. E. Cookson, R. McGill, C. E. Os- borne, F. G. Smith, A. E. Thompson, and T. R. Valliers. Within the bylaw are require- ments for such zones as agri- cultural, greenbelt, residential, commercial and industrial. This is fine except for one thing -- they're not practical. Unless of course they were de- signed for this purpose, It might be an interesting observation to note how many farmers were connected with the setting up and passing of the zoning bylaw. After all, anybody in their right mind if they owned a size- able chunk of land in the town- ship wouldn't want their prop- erty broken up into scattered residential zones if they thought |REVOLVER HASSLE | an ultimatum a, of a man who some councillors felt deliberately tried to beat who never got anything and lived here for 50 years', an "why should we do it for you when we made a man put up $600 for 600 feet of gravel?" "I guess you wouldn't consider building the road yourself?" was the unreasonable request one councillor made. the building inspector is not doing his job properly, it is up to the council to replace him. The electors expect and de- mand it. The secretary of the Darling- ton Ratepayers' Association, Mrs. Mary Budai suggested a year ago that council sit down with the planning board and work out some amendments to the bylaw. She even drafted some amendments herself and pre- sented them to council for study. When a year had gone by she thought she should ask what happened to the recommenda- tions? "Oh we still have them," they told her, "'see how much they get used?" and they showed her that the pages were falling from the loose-leaf book. They may be used, but for what? Council certainly haven't made use of them as far as correcting the zoning prob- lems in the township. Mrs. Budai again asked if council had any intention of taking her suggestion to sit Then there was the case of the Bowmanville Revolver Club who joined with the Bowman- ville Rifle Club to build a club- house and shooting range. They were given a building permit, constructed their build- ing at a cost of more than $700 and then were told by council that the building inspec- tor shouldn't have issued the permit. The clubhouse was in the wrong zone and as a result council cannot sign the papers to permit the hydro to be hook- ed up. The club has given council "hook up our hydro or we'll sue for dam- ges", Another case comes to mind the bylaw. He was given a per- mit to build an addition to his house, but instead, he built a new house six feet away from the old one and moved the old building to the rear of the new one. One councillor insists that Mr. Varcoe knew that this is what this man intended to do. Then there's the 'summer cottage" case where a large family had tried to get a permit to build a house in an agricul. tural zone, but couldn't afford to build it to the township speci- fications -- 1500 square feet (not many could). This adds up to a four-bedroom house, and the square footage excludes an Tickets will be $1.50 for attached SArage. | adults and 75 cents for chil- Apparently. this family was| dren.

Not that we're accusing any-| body of this. It's just a thought. Then there's the old die-hard who is still living in the same world he was 40 years ago and "'wouldn't change it for the world". Councillor Harold "Barney" Muir hit the nail on the head last week when he told a man who had invested a considerable amount of money in the town- ship, 'I'm not going along with 'WHY BORROW MONEY calls for, this family winteriz-|cer at 655-3546 tonight only.
