Colu- mittees could be appointed to deal with housing, public school play grounds, sub-divisions, extensions to streets, etc. This plan was followed out in other places and worked sans hctorily. . A special meeting 9! the ‘31 Dr W. L. Hilliard also referred to proposed changes suggested In the Leavitt report, noting the necessity" ot conforming to a definite plan. He instanced the lack of public play grounds, the young people not being allowed the use ol school grounds, and they must play on the streets. The time to begin was now and the effort. should be made to minke ML crlou a garden city. In connection with the Waterloo Park he mentioned the tact that a private party owned the land now constituting the mill pond, and, the proposal might at some future time be made to drain it and divide it into building Iota. In order toavoid; this it would be necessary tobuy it. He referred to-the proposal to wid-) en King street, and regretted that the square on King street: had not been taken over by the town. He reierred to the proposal in Bulin regarding wnleningof King St, and thought that Waterloo should make arrangements to widen King St. in Waterloo. He said the Mulsous Bank building should be set back eitghiteet to allow for the widening or the street. Reeve Wegenasr said he quit? agreed that the town shyuld not, have aliow- trd the square on King St. to be built upon in the first place. He lav- ored setting the building back eight feet. Reeve Wrgerrast thet, moved that, thrvrrport of the Adrisnry Committee, on town planning be received and ac- cepted. and plans carried out as far as possibly the town engineer, and that Messrs. F. G.
