CARRIED
Before proceeding with the business of the evening, Councillor
Kruger, Chairman of Finance, apologized to the gallery that the
scheduled striking of the 1969 tax rates and the bringing down
of the 1969 budget would have to be postponed due ~art_l¥ to the
delay in reaching the final assessment ftgmr~s aider the Cm
of Revision. ~. ~r~er did assmre the trot®pay®rs that th. 1969

Council on their June ~nd, 1969 meeting. ~ also ~ndicated
that collies of a budge~, speech re,ether with a seriea of tax
examples of l~&8 to 1989 comparisons would also be made

1. Moved by Councillor J. Kruger, seconded by Councillor A. King,
that Mr. Patrick O'Dowd be heard.
Mr. O'Dowd advised Council that he has been a resident of the
Township of Picketing for the last six years, located in the
Township in P&r~ Let l&~ Conceaa~on .6~ His appearance before
Council was in regard to the fenceviewers award with which he
was presented. He felt the decision of the fenceviewers was
most unfair and indicated signs of being prejudiced against.
He indicated to Council that he expected and would agree to
sharing 50% of costs and maintenance of a fence but found he
was awarded full costs. His neighbour to the north-west, a
Mr. Carson, raises cattle and it is his cattle that are crossing
over onto his land, damaging his crops. Mr. O'Dowd is of the
opinion Mr. Carson should be responsible for the fence.
The Council advised Mr. O'Dowd that they would look into the
matter and upon inquirin~ what he should do in the meantime,
it was suggested that he should do nothing with respect to the
award until Council has a report.
Instructions - Mr. Marshall to provide a report on the background
with respect to the decision reached by the Fenceviewers on
the O'Dowd sad Carson problem, and provide a sketch of the
fenceline under dispute.
- 2 - 15/69
2. Moved by Councillor J. Kruger, seconded by Deputy Reeve Chatten,
that Mr. C. Onley, Q. C. be heard.
Mr. Onley, Solicitor for Bidwell Homes, appeared before Council
to approve Council's decision on application A 4/69, a multi-
unit and high rise development on part Lot 27, Range 3,
Township of Picketing, which Council refused on the grounds
that no adequate Municipal services exist to service the
development.
Mr. Onley advised Council that the proposed development consisting
of 900 dwelling units would use approximately 5% of the design
capacity of the present sewage plant which in their estimation
was insignificant and that a study by their engineers could
prove that the present plant could quite easily.accommodate.
He further advised that a cash contribution of $1OO.OO per unit
would make available $90,000. to the Township
The development would not be completed at one time, but would
be staged over a period of years. Mr. Onley advised that this
particular location for this type of development is most
desirable, being separate from the single family dwellings,
accessible to good transportation, water, sewers and schools.
He urged Council that s study be made of the sewer capacity
since his clients are of the opinion that engineers could very
easily over or underestimate the capacity ~ their services.
He went on to say that his engineers think that the capacity
is there.
Reeve Williams advised Mr. Onley that Council has already had
studies made and has complete knowledge of the working of our
sewage plant, and further, is aware of the capacity of the
plant. He went on to advise that the trunk sewers at the
location of the proposed Bidwell Homes lands are insufficient
in size to accommodate the proposed development, and further,
that what capacity there is at the sewage plant will be used
to accommodate industry locating in this Township.
Reeve Williams, referring to the proposal submitted by Bidwell
Homes, sees nothing in it to indicate to Council what servicing
would be required. Members of Council agreed that a servicing
problem does exist wh~ h must be resolved before the develop-
ment can get off the ground.

cutting does not officially start until June 15, complaints are
now being received regarding weeds on Township owned property.

Bay Ridges,
May 22, 1969.
The Reeve and Members of Council,
Corporation of Township of Picketing,
1710 Kingston Road,
Pickering, Ontario.
Gentlemen:
Due to confliction of meeting dates of the Committee of Adjustment
and another organization of which I am chairman, I feel I have
no alternative but to tender my resignation from the Committee
of Adjustment effective May 31, 1969.
It has long been my contention that members of the committee
endeavour to make 100% attendance at meetings in fairness to
other sitting members, and I find it will be impossible for me
to do so during the coming months.
During the past six years I have found the work with the committee
to be very interesting, enjoyable (mostly) and certainly
educational in many respects. I shall miss the other members
and the staff all of whom have been excellent. I also appreciate
the opportunity of having served with the committee and the
confidence of the Council in confirming my re-appointment for
this period of office.
Best wishes to all.
Sincerely,
Dennis Horsfield, Chairman,
Comm~ttee of Adjustment.
Deputy Reeve Chatten felt that ~ to~o£ apprec~at~n~uLd
be given to Mr. Horsfield for the service which he provided the
Township.
It was recommended that the matter be referred to the Committee
of the ~ole.
