The possible takeover was mentioned a few years ago, but at that time the Authority had con- sidered the area too small for its purposes. With the acquisition of 400 acres of land beside the park, the - plan would be feasible if the townships agreed to it. Both township councils and several Authority executive members met in Belgrave Feb. 12 to dis- cuss the proposal. The Authority, council reports, assured them that the park, if taken over, would be operated according to an agreement setting out the conditions which the township wanted. Council said the authority would not take over the park and later dictate how it should be operated. "The town- ships must be satisfied " they said.
