Reeve C. W. Laycox, Deputy Reeve Mrs. J. McPherson, and Ward 2 Councillor Donald Beer were named as _ committee members at a council meeting on Tuesday night. The reeve said that he "irked when they pulled sandy on Beverley after had already won." (It was agreed at the B.E. Games that the first competition in diving be called off because of the wind.) The committee has yet to decide what the presentation will be but "medals are out." "She has a basement full of them now," said the Reeve. Staff Increase was that she _ Reeve C. W. Laycox made a plea to council on Tuesday night on this behalf, stating that he had requested a pro- ject from the department but that under heavy duties, it would take a month to be com- pleted. Mr. Laycox cited figures on increased applications, meet- ings, and reports. He said that the personnel of the depart- ment who are not paid for overtime worked a total of 21 days overtime this year, and 136 staff reports were pre- pared. The senior. secretary in the) department, Mrs. Cheryl Pearse, will be transferred into technician duties. | Bridge Fence The Canadian National Rail- way will build a fence along its| property at the Rouge River Bridge, as far to the east and to the west as deemed neces- sary, with the exception of the Rosebank crossing. | The recent death of a child] who fell from the bridge| created a storm of controver-| sies, Reeve Laycox said at a} Tuesday night Council meeting, | and that, together with protests from the West Rouge rate-| payers,, has incited action in an attempt to keep children off the bridge.

K. H. J. Clarke, of Port Manor on the north-west cor- ner, owner of the subject prop- erty and former owner of the municipal building site, said this application was for a change in zoning in keeping with the area, He said that the parcel would likely be used for a service station and res- taurant. Present buildings on the sub- ject property are destined for removal because of the new widening and _ realignment along the east side of the Brock Rd. by the Department of Highways. CONDITIONS C. W. Laycox said that the proposed commercial use would compliment the corner, and that the new municipal building would ultimately be on one of four good corners. Conditions of approval in- clude no outside storage, that future development be subject to site plan approval, and that land not occupied by buildings be seeded or sodded and maintained. PLANNING County Assessment Commis- sioner Gordon Hepditch ex- plained the system of assess- ing gravel pits to the Pickering Township Planning Board last week, but said that he did not think assessment should be a weapon for planning. "The "s function is Both Mrs. McPherson and Councillor Spang said that they had not approved the Bay Ridges development originally in 1959, but since this was in- filling, to approve this plan was the only thing they could do. Mr. Williams thought that a 'proposed agreement should be land -- that there was nothing! "If this is the way you are to measure the worth of the community," said the Com- missioner. 'The Assessment Act requires that you assess according to present use. It doesn't matter what the zoning may be." This was in reply to a ques- tion by C. W. Laycox that if operators own a lot of land under Agricultural zoning would there be an increase in assessment because of the "A" zoning. Change In Zoning Advised decision set by the late Judge Pritchard to assess gravel pit operaiors according io vaiue is not equitable. "TI believe the law should be changed s0 we can assess on the amount of material taken out," he said, "I think this would give a better taxing structure. When Mr. Laycox said that he believed the board had in- vited Mr. Hepditch to come on a wild goose chase, Chairman John Irwin said this: "It is very important that your planning board be intelli- gent when dealing with prop- erties. We have an application before us which, according to reports, is an operational pit, and will cause considerable annoyance to householders." Hepditch said that assess- fected by the nuisance factor. LACK OF PLAN "T feel that assessment should not be used in place of planning," he said, "I feel that Pickering Township 4s. suffsr. ing from lack of planning af- fecting some areas." Mrs. Jean McPherson re- ported that the township had just lost a desirable homeowner becaiise of a gravel pit, and asked if gravel pit operators would ever give sufficient re- turn to justify the destruction of roads. 'We have enough of them now," she said. "The economy of the south part of Ontario would grind to a halt without gravel pits;" commented Mr. Laycox.
