(a) Letter from Mr. & Mrs. Braid --

Highland Creek, R.R.#I~

March 25, 1969.
Ontario Municipal Board,
83 Queen Street East,
Toronto, Ontario.
Attn: Mr, Ke,nnedy, Chairman of the Board
Appe~ t, Gran~ .a ..Building Permit to Reginald .and Lorna Braid
Dear Mr. Kennedy:
~e have been refused a building permit for 1969 from the
Township of Picketing. The reason stated that they have authoriza-
tion from the Ontario Municipal Board to issue 100 building
permits per year.
~e purchased a 2 acre lot on the Greenwood .Road in 1960 and
have been paying taxes since that date.
- 2- 11/69
In the fall of 1968 we applied for a permit to install a
culvert. The Pickering Township authorities did this for the fee
of $75.o0.
On January 15, 1969 we made formal application for a building
permit. Our lot plan was taken by the County Health Department
and was approved for a well and septic bed, the spetic to be
located 1OO feet from the well. We returned to the Engineering
Department, they accepted our deposit of $300.00 (although this
has not been cashed) and accepted a copy of the building plans.
The well has been drilled, the material for our home has
been purchased, and now upon requesting the permit on March 21st,
we have been notified that the permit has been d~ ied, on the
grounds that only 100 building permits can be issued as follows:
Group A Developers 45
Group B Personal Homes 50
Group C Rural
1OO
It seems absurd that the Ontario Municipal Board is refusing
Picketing Township the right to collect our Tax Dollars consider-
ing the fact that:
(1) There is no water required;
(2) No sewage required:
(3) No garbage collection required;
(4) No further road maintenance;
(5) The hydro is our cost;
(6) We have no children, although under present. Education
Plans this cost is not borne by the Township.
So how can we possibly be a drain on the Township. They have
everything to gain.
Our home will be in a Rural residence area, with restrictions
as to minimum size, therefore the taxes would be substantial.
It is our intention to appear at the next Council meeting
on Monday, March 31st, 1969 and we would appreciate your assistance
on our behalf.
Yours very truly,
Lorna Braid, (Mrs.)
Reginald Braid
(b) Letter from The Ontario Municipal Board.
145 Queen Street West,
Toronto, Ontario.
March 1969.
Mr. D. J. Plitz,
Municipal Clerk
Township of Picketing,
Municipal Building,
Pickering, Ontario.
Dear Mr. Plitz:
Re: ,Reginald and Lorna Braid
I have been directed by the Chairman of the Board
to you a copy of a letter dated March 24, 1969 from Mr. and Mrs.
Reginald Braid, and the same is enclosed herewith.
Will you be good enough to forward your comments at your
earliest convenience herein.
Yours truly,
R. Scott, Secretary
- 3 - 11/69
Reeve Williams advised Mrs. Braid that the 0OUncil is controlled
by the Ontario Municipal Board on a quota of 100 residential
building permits and further that an'appointment is being arranged
to meet with Mr. J. A. Kennedy, Chairman of the Board to discuss
among other things the possibility of having our quota increased
to 300 for 1969. Councillor Rudik suggested that in reply to
the Ontario Muni~ pal Board letter, Council should mention the
Ontario Municipal Board Order which imposes the restriction.
Mrs~ Braid was requested to bear with Council for a further two
weeks when it was likely a definite answer would be given.
2. Moved b~ Councillor J. Kruger, seconded by Councillor A. King
that Mr~ T. A. Newman be heard.
Mr. Newman appeared on behalf of Mr. Cunningham who is seeking
an agreement with the Township and a building permit to erect a
house on an unopened (unimproved) Township road allowance between
Township lots 8 and 9, Concession 8.
Mr. Newman requested Council's permission to allow Mr. Cunningham
to speak on his own behalf. Mr. Cunningham advised Council that
he was aware of Mrs. Pugh receiving a building permit under a
restrictive agreement and that he was willing to assume this
responsibili$¥.
Mr. Newman made reference to his inquiries to the various officials
of the municipality and was assured of no problems in effecting a
transfer of the agreement or the permit. It was on this assurance
that his client, Mr. Cunningham, proceeded with the purchase of
this property from Mrs. Pugh.
The Council had second thoughts about this problem, suggesting
that it be referred back to the Roads Committee for a review and
final recommendations.
Mr. Newman advised Council that his client would be agreeable to
enter into a new agreement with the Township.
See Motion 8 (e).
Referred to the Roads Committee.
Some members of Council felt that under the circumstances the
Township shoula allow a transfe~ of the agreement and issuance
of a building permit as they would probably find themselves in
the position of having a mandamus issued and would be without an
agreement if the request was not met.
3. Moved by Councillor Kruger, seconded by Councillor Rudik that
Mr. C. W. Laycox of P.M.A. Real Estate be heard.
Mr. Laycox made a presentation to Council of drawings of four
old buildings located in the Township. He explained that 5000
brouchures had been mailed by his Company to all parts of the
world, advertising the Township's industrial potential, and that
this was the first series of a set of three of four pictures in
each set.
The Council thanked Mr. Laycox and his Company for their pre-
sentation and advised they would be suitably hung in the
Municipal Building.

The Council and the Architect, Mr. Silverberg, agreed that the

be authorized to select the three lowest bids, contact the respec-
tive construction companies to attempt a more reasonable construc-
tion cost. On recommendation of Council, Mr. Silverberg retained
the tenders advising he would contact the Clerk in two to three
days on the results of his efforts. The matter was tabled and
referred to the Committee of the Whole Council.
(V) CORRESPONDENCE
1. Fir. M. B. Beauchamp, Administrator Clerk-Treasurer, Town of Ajax,
advises the Township of Picketing Resolution #39/69 was presented
to their Council and has been referred to their Finance and
Legislation Committee for further consideration.
2. Mr. J. G. McQueen, Clerk-Treasurer, Village of Picketing, forwards
a copy of their Council's motion favouring the division of the
Township in a north-south direction, the easterly part to be
joined to Ajax, Picketing Village, and associated with an
Oshawa-based region. Motion as follows -- (passed March 17,1969)
"Moved by Mr. McLean, seconded by Mr. Dingley, that it is the
opinion of this Council that, assuming the Minister of Municipal
Affairs exercises his perogative in prohibiting the Township of
Picketing from joining the Municipality of Metropolitan Toronto,
this Council favours alternative two of the regional Government
proposal of the Town of Ajax, dividing the Township of Picketing
in a north-south direction, with the easterly portion of the
Township of Picketing, the Town of Ajax, and the Village of
Picketing forming one municipality in the Regional Government
mmnicipality located east of Metropolitan Toronto and associated
withan Oshawa-based region.
"This o~a~emen~ is subJec~ ~o ~he availability of further informa-
tion being provided by the municipalities referenced."
The Council inquired as to the poss/ble breakdown in communi6a-
tions with the Village of Picketing, as this type of motion
should not have been written. '
Reeve Williams had talked with Reeve Muison and Reeve Polack
on Wednesday, March 26, 1969, and stated there was no indication
made at this meeting that such a resolution was being considered.
He indicated that if Metro made a move in the direction of
Pickering's amalgamation with it, the thinking of the Provincial
Government could be changed. It was suggested that every effort
be made to have the Councils of the three municipalities meet
again and that communications be improved.
