L. McPherson, seconded by Deputy Reeve G. Ashe that Mr. J. S. Parkinson be heard. Although Mr. Parkinson was present, Mr. J. B. Conlin requested permission from Council to speak on behalf of his clients, John B. Regan Company Limited, highland Creek Sand and Gravel Co. Ltd., and Miller Paving LDuited. The purpose of Hr. Conlin's appearance before Council was to oppose Metropolitan Toronto's application to amend By-law 3037 so that Metro can at any place anywhere in the Municipality carryon a sanitary landfill program. If the by-law is adopted as recommended~ he would oppose it on behalf of his clients. l'1r. Conlin went on to say that this Council is not empowered to adopt a by-law of that character because it is a land-use power. Planning Board can recommend that it can amend the by-law. It requires approval of the Ontario Municipal Board before it takes effect. It is a subterfuge to enact a by-law peculiar to three areas of the Municipality. It is a trite law with a Municipality that it is not empowered to do indirectly what it can do directly. The by-law should not be enacted in the form indicated by the Planning Board, and should designate these areas for that purpose. Hoved by Councillor Chatten, seconded by Deputy Reeve G. Ashe that Mr. J. S. Sillers be heard. Mr. Sillers spoke in support of Metro's application to the amendment of By-law 3037, explaining that his submission is that the amendment is in effect a land- use amendment J requesting that the words '¡municipal purpose" be inserted. The Tovmship has a¿reed to amend the By-law to accoII1j\lodate landfill sites, (III) 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. - 2 - 10/71 which he felt was interpreted wrongly by Mr. Conlin in that this is to license open garbage dumps in any area of the Township. He went on to explain that no land can be acquired and used without the express approval of the Council, and that Council has a right to impose terms and conditions on any land. He further pointed out that if Metro proposes to establish or alter waste management~ a certificate of approval is required and no permission will be granted unless advertised three times in local newspapers. This application is simply a question that they (referring to individual property owners) own properties in this area. It is not a question of opposing or otherwise. This whole exercise is to put the owners i~ a better position if expropriation becomes necessary, whic'h Me'tro ?tope will ne't:. Mr. Conlin~ speaking against the ~etro application, stated that he has instructions from 80% of the owners of lands in question to oppose the amendment and suggested to Council, with respect, that Council not go forward with the by-law as requested by Metro. With that, Mr. J. G. Parkinson, Mr. J- B. Conlin and Mr. J. S. Sillers retirpñ from the Council Chambers. Refer TO Resolutions #67/71 and #68/71. INFORMATION The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation advises that their program on ~Villiar!L Lyon Mackenzie will be aired on C. B. C. Television on Narcit 17 at 10:00 - 11:00 p.m. Mr. James A. Taylor, Q. C., Township Solicitor, advises that By-law 3966/71 (Stockelbach) has been filed with the Ontario l'1unicipal Board and no approval of the Board will be required in view of the fact that the By-law was passed at its direction. The agreement has been executed by Stockelbach and is for the benefit of the Municipal Corporation. The Township should accordingly execute this agreement so as to exercise the controls and enjoy the benefits provided by same. It is Mr. Taylor1s view that it would be contrary to the best interests of the Municipality if this agreement was not signed. Mr. James A. Taylor, Q. C., Township Solicitor, forwards carbon copy of a letter sent to Marb-O-Matic, Part Lot 19, Range 3, advising them that steps are being taken to complete the reconveyance of the subject lands.
