WHITBY FREE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 27, 1979, PAGE 3 Residents are pleased with council's West Ward tour The Operations Committee recently made a tour of the West Ward of the town, much to the pleasure of the people living in this ward. "They were really pleased to see us and delighted that. we are taking an interest in what is being done in the town." Councillor Joe Bugel- Newcomers spend so much time on the road commuting to and from Metro that it takes time to find Whitby's churches. Two Anglican parishes are combining efforts in June to acquaint newcomers with Whitby's many churches. Concern is being expres- sed for children and young people because both chur- ches in the visitation have good programmes under- way. In pairs, young people from St. John's and All Saints' Anglican churches in Whitby will visit every home in two new sub-divisions. Their purpose will be to identify the ways in which the churches can meet the religious needs of new- comers in both Otter Creek and College Downs. The idea sprang out of the Oshawa Deanery Council including 14 Anglican Police said that a 1976 pick-up truck was stolen from the owner's driveway during the past week-end. Tony Lucino of 82 Winches- ter Road, Brooklin parked his pick-up truck in the driveway and went into his residence. Some time later when he went out into the yard his pick-up was gone from his driveway. Wheels and tires were stolen from car parked in front of another man's resi- dence in Whitby police said. Alex Pilepie of 704 Maria Street, reported the theft of two wheels and tires from his car which was parked in front of his residence. Inspector David Flem- ming said that two youths have been charged with mis- chief and two air rifles seized after four spotlights at the Girl Guide Camp "Unaleyi" were shot out with a gun by several youths. A number of youths were taken into custody and as a result of the investigation. Mark Beasley 18of Ajax and Frank Garrets Choo Street, Whitby were charged with mischief. li said. The Committee had been examining "rutty shoul- ders" on some of the streets in the west sbction of town when the residents came out to talk with them. Wherever the Committee and Works Department members stopped to exa- parishes from Dunbarton and Bay ridges north to Uxbridge and Port Perry and through to the eastern boundary of Oshawa. Because there are few summer jobs available these young people will spend two. weeks in June knocking on doors. Visiting has been endorsed by the churches of the Whit- by Ministerial Association. .(Dodgers will be posted a. week prior to the door-knock- ing.) The middle-aged teens who call are not slick sales- men but typical young people with growing convic- tions. We know they will receive a good welcome, and should ask no more than 10,minutes of your valuable time. Any inquiries should be adli-essed to Rev. J.A. Roney, 668-6496 or 668-5101' mornings. Police said that Reuben Rodney of 55 Harbour Square, Toronto reported the theft of a painting, some sculpture and an antique typewriter from his office located at 216 Brock Street, south, Whitby. Province helps i land gas collection The provincial Ministry of the Environment will pay $4,000 of the $140,000 cost to the town of Whitby for instal- ling gas collection equip- ment in the former lar .lfill site in theHopkins Street Ãndustrial Park. The equipment will collect methane gas being emitted from the site, which was abandoned more than 12 years ago. Churches visiting new subdivissons mine an area, children of all ages on foot and bicycles were attracted to the loca- tion to see what was going on. Some of the points that were looked into by the Committee were dust control on the Centennial Building parking lot. Councillor Bugelli was and is concerned about a bump at the intersection of Byron and Trent streets. "It is going to be very dangerous in the winter time when the snow and ice islon the go," he said. As the Committee checked out the Iroquois Park area they learned that the paving of the parking lot is right on schedule. The tennis Courts are well underway and the lights are to ýbe installed. "That is the slow point," Recreation Director Wayne DeVeau said. He also pointed out a trou- ble spot in the water heating system. Once it is altered there will be plenty a thot water for the shower areasof the swimming pool.. . The tour went through the West Lynde area with the Committee checking on the point of dust control. while Annes street is under recon- struction. The work is now in pro- gress and the street will be reconstructed westward to Newman Crescent this year. They also checked on a location where the members had been receiving many complaints. It gives the onlooker the impression, at first, that a road is under construction; but 'Councillor Bugelli ex- plained that it is a "location. where there had been indes- criminate dumping of'a vari- ety of things." It had been a shallow portion in the formation of the land or left in that manner by the developer. No one is certain as to how the depression got there. The depression is being filled in by the Works Department and it will be leveled then seeded to grass. There were other locations in the park, and school areas that the Committee exami- ned and had Brian Suter, of the Works Department, make note of. as well as bringing the points to the attention of Works Depart- ment Director, Dick Kuwa- hara, who were also on the tour with the Operations Committee. As they examined pro- blems at the Whiteoaks area, Committee members thought it was and is "ridicu- lous," the playing fields are to be looked into by the Works Department and Ope- rations Committee. In July the Operations Committee of Council will tour the North Ward of the Town. The Works Department Director, Town Teasurer and Committee members will meet July 3 at 6:45 p.m. in the Brooklin Community Centre, the old Whitby Town- ship Municipal Hall, then they will tour the northern area of the Town. located on the east side of Lynde Creek and the apart- ments and population are located on the west side of the Creek. There is no way for the population to go into the playing field area without first going north onto Dundas Street then east along Dun- das Street then south again into the playing fields. It was agreed that this is a dangerous aspect particular- ly for children as the traffic volume is rather heavy along Dundas Street and very heavy during rush hour. Therewas some sugges- tion that a footbridge be constructed across the Lynde Creek at its narrowest point near the Whiteoaks Apartrnent buildings.
