WILLO WDALE PROTEST Amid â€" several outbursts of cheers and handâ€"clapping, resiâ€" dents of the Willowdale district of Waterloo made it crystalâ€"clear to the Waterloo planning board that they don‘t want a high rise apartment building at Lincoln Road and Weber Street. Robert McCargar, board chairâ€" man, had planned a break for informal â€" discussions â€" following the planning board presentation, but it failed to develop when four leaders of the delegation took over. Several times during the next two hours Mr. McCargar warned the audience to refrain from furâ€" ther clapping and cheering outâ€" bursts or else we‘ll never get out of here.

Brian Turnbull, city planner, expressed regret that most of the meeting involved only one small site in overall plan. "I had hoped for more com.nent on the schools problem and traffic patterns," he said. _ _ Mr. Goudie said because one section of the Lincoln Road area in only one of thrge in the city zoned for high priced homes, this section should be relieved of heavy traffic "even if it means making Lincoln Road a oneâ€"way street as far as Ellis Crescent." He said traffic volumes of 2,000 vehbicles a day on Lincoln Road is "an outright crime . . . We are not a collector street and we object to this (designation"). Mr. McCargar said most of the vacant land is subject to revisions by the board, but a recommendaâ€" tion has already been made to council on the Shore to Shore Development Ltd. proposal for Lincoln Road and Weber Street. high rise buildings would only add to the present complications. We approved it before, and subsequent study of the area has not altered our thinking."
