As a consequence, the maples fronting Waterloo St. will have to be severely pruned as the apartment is set back only 15 feet from the site line. Pruning could be so severe as to destroy the trees com- pletely. Furthermore extensive parking on the site will necessitate the felling of six full grown trees - 4 willow and 2 ash. This will completely chance, the appearence of the• site, in that it will be near void of trees. "5) A parking lot will con- sume well over half the site and will- be visible from all sides. The parking lot extends to the west of the site between two existing residential lots. The corning and going of over 22 automobiles on such a confined site will. I believe, seriously disturb the peace and privacy of the neighbours. "6) The cost of the building at $12 per square foot simple does not achieve a building of a good design that the site deser- ves.

(photo by Fords Studio) proposed apartment building because in general, I believe, it is a very poor design and quite unworthy of being built. As such, i strongly recommend to Council that tt'e design as sub- mitted by Mr. Dexon not be ac- cepted. "However we must now look forward to the future and con- sider what changes should be recommended to the design of the proposed apartment building. 1 am suggesting a� number of general changes and these are under ' general headings. The plan shape should be ar- ticulated in such a way as to "soften" the large unrelieved elevations. The intent is to make the building aesthetically more in scale with the residen- ces of the neighbourhood. The intent is similar to preceding recommendation, to "soften" the largeness. of the building, Floor -cantilevers, balconies, mansard roofs," projecting walls all help to relieve the elevations, without being fussy. . The elevations should be in- teresting and domestic in proportion. Landscape should also be introduced as an element of the total design. The qualities of the older ,.residen- tial residen- tial area should be closely studied so that the design of the elevations do not copy but complement these features. No mature trees should be removed, Fut rather the trees should influence and com- plement the design of the apar- tment building. Landscape fur- niture, play areas, and seating areas should be provided for the residents and their children. There should only be on-site parking, space for service and visitor vehicles, with .the remainder of the parking un- derground. The site should not become a parking lot in the middle of an established residential area. The preceding recommen- dations are applicable specifically to the proposed apartment site in question. It is as - the developers' architect said "a very tight site", and, therefore, requires the utmost imagination and skill to accom- modate an apartment building of 22 units." "The site isa good site for an apartment building," commen- ted Gary Davidson. "But the building should .complement the site and not disrupt the existing characteristics of the neighborhood." "I maintain there is a need for that kind of accommodation in Goderich," said Councillor Bill Clifford to Davidson and Hill. "I've never doubted that. You're not saying an apart- ment building shouldn't be put up. You're saying the apart- ment building should be of a design to fit the area. I think this is a good report. We should be concurring with it.". , For All Your Lumber & Building Needs seeJOHN JEFFERY & SONS Phone 524-8171 MOIIP FIRI T Frost Free refrigerators yl - 1 n 1111111111111111 * FIESTA 300 * 15.1 CU.

Would prohibit ••• (Continued from page 1 ched by Councillor Eileen Palmer although it became clear during the course of the evening Mrs. Palmer had not contacted Police Chief Pat King regarding the safety aspect as had been suggested by Councillor Bill Clifford at the previous meeting. Clifford repeated his request at the committee session. Councillor Palmer did say there had been some protest from summer businessmen regarding the ice cream bicycles which had been proposed to. cir- culate through the streets of town. She also said that litter was a real consideration and added that the safety factor was another concern. M -s. Palmer noted that in Scarborough, for instance, the ice cream carts had been ban- ned seven years ago because of the high rate of fatalities and casualties among children. "When that bell rings, the children run," commented Mrs. Pdlmer. "They don't look. They just want to get to the ice cream man." Mrs. Palmer, the only lady on council during the absence of Mrs. Elsa Haydon vho i+ vacationing in Europe, felt the' applicant, Jame's O. Fraser, had fulltime eemployment and would only be using this ice cream enterprize as a "sideline". - "It is a livelihood for somel others," reported Mrs. Palmer. Councillor Leroy Harrison questioned this point. "We allow Pete's hot dog wagon and the chip wagon on the Square," commented Harrison. "We allow Larry Jef- fery at the.,beach and Smiths at the race track. Those are stric- tly summer businesses. It is not their livelihood." Reeve Deb Shewfelt questioned council's legal right to prohibit this new business in Goderich. "We're getting awfully over- protective of other people's businesses," stated Reeve Shewfelt. He noted it was dif- ficult to buy ice cream cones in town except at the dairies. Mayor Hairy Worsell had noted earlier there were "enough places selling ice cream". ._..councillor Dave Gower, chairman of the Administrative Committee reminded council that bicycles are not permitted to operate on the Town's sidewalks. Gower said he un- derstood Fraser was requesting permission to travel on the sidewalks. Councillor Harrison advised Gower that Fraser's letter had asked petrmission to "come up onto the sidewalk" to make a sale, in the interests of safety. Councillor' Frank Walkom reiterated his concern about the amount of garbage these mobile ice cream stands would - prnduc -throughout the -town -- 1 -le said he lived near a store where such treats were sold and added he could pick up "a half bushel of garbage any mor- ning of the week" around the area. The matter will bo discussed at tonight's meeting when a decision is expected. Kingsbridge CWL hears about food additives Tuesday evening, June 12, the Kingsbridge C.W.L. held its monthly meeting. President Mrs. John Howard called the meeting to order and Fr. Den - finger led in the League Prayer. Mrs. Antone Van- Osoh, Spiritual Convener, led in Family Prayer for Vocation' and the Prayer of the Anti - Abortion League.

Twelve members are- expected with maybe five more from Brookside School. As Family Life Convener, Mrs. Dalton gave a report on the 25 mile Walkathon against Abortion. She said it was quite successful. The Grade 8 graduation banquet is planned for June 26 and anyone wanting to help should contact Mrs. Con Hogan. Fr. Dentinger' welcomed the visitors and then congratulated the ladies for helping at the Walkathon. He thanked the ladies for helping at the Marian Villa lunch and also for the cleaning of the Church. Mrs. Pat Howard brought in At article about Mra. Emma Franken, past president of the C.W.L. at. St. Augustine. Mrs. Tom Hogan read this article which was very interesting and dealt with how Mrs. Franken and her family of nine children have very ably managed their farm since Mr. Franken's death a year ago. Mrs. Carl Reigling made a motion which was seconded by Mrs. Walter Clare to close the meeting. Mrs;- Howard then welcomed all the ladies from the various church groups to the meeting. She introduced the speaker, Mrs. Margarite Jansen, who spoke about the additives in RED&\ WHITE FOOD STORES food that are harmful.
