Markborough is pre- sentiy prepariflg a large tract of land east of Thickson Road between Dundas Sre and Rossiand Road for resi- dential development. Markborough has proposed that its Brooklin industrial site 'be- on, the north east corner of- Thickson and Win- chester Roads, and would not >be planning any residential development for at least 15 years. Adm-inistrative committee Chairman Councillor 'Tom Edwards said Markborough wili 'be considered îin the plans for Brookin, but, it is up to the towns pianners and For CETi1 MRE not the committee to corne up 'ith a .revised plan that milt or mnight flot include an industrial Park on Markbor- ough's property. The Donovan Pinker study plan shows an 85-acre- in- dustrial park on the south- west corner of Thickson and Winchester, and Consolidated Building Corporation wants it on- the, northweskt corner. Demolitiondelayed Aproposai by the town's operations comnurffttee to de- molish the Myrtle Comnmunity centre and retain the land for a park, has been tabled, by ouclfor two weeks for further'consideration. The building, a school house built about 100 years ago, has been emn-ptyand boarded up for severai years. 1Several attempts have been made by localcomm'ittees to generate programs in the cen- tre,but these have failed, says Recreation Director Wayne DeVeau.

Mr. DeVeau reported that the Ashburn Commufnity Centre fs a viable operation and appears to be serving the needs, of Myrtie., The fire department has declared the Myrtle building unsafe, and the public works department has also done so, stating that it has poor floor conditions.
