Council adopted a recommend- ation that the police committee in- vestigate the advisability of in- stituting one-way traffic on the streets around the pumping .sta- tion at the harbor. , The recommendation was made by the special committee, of which Councillor F. Wallwm is chairman. He explained later that the move was prOposed due to the heavy truck traffic and also because of the large number of cans which jam the area on week -ends. It is hoped that one-way traffic will relieve the congestion and make driving safer in the area. If one-way traffic is instituted, vehicles would probably be obliged to turn right at the bottom of the hill and circle the pumping sta- tion, instead of going straight through to the beach. It is new up to the police com- mittee to consider the proposal and send a definite recommend- . ation to Council. Councillor C. M. Robertson, chairman of the parks committee, reported on his coinmittee's latest attempts to beautify the harbor area. Since there had been some complaints about cars parking on the grass in the little park next to the Imperial Oil property, he said that he had succeeded in having poste: placed around the edge of the park. The posts have been connected with a cable and they will be painted, he announced. Paint Donated What's more, he beamed, "We're getting the paint donated _to us." He credited Councillor W. A. Tip- ple with a valuable assist on this project. The Public Utilities Commission had co-operated with the beauti- fication program, he said, by put- ting a painted fence around a hydro pole at the bottom of Harbor Hill. Councillor Robertson comment- ed, "We have a sign out the high- way, 'The Prettiest Town In Can- ada,' and we should periodically remind citizens of the need to clean up and tidy • up." He said he had approached cer- tain parties to ask that they co- -operate in tidying up local pro- perties and he indicated he had attained some success in this re- spect. 'Councillor James Bisset, chair- man of the water, light and harbor committee, brought up the matter of the ladders on the sides of the piers. It had been •brought to his attention, he said, that some of the "small fry" have trouble in reaching ,the ladders since the lake level has dropped. 'Unsafe For Youngsters Another member of Council pointed out that youngsters shonld- f Eleven applications for building permits ssere noted and filed when Town Council met Friday night. Most of the applications were made in connection with repair jobs and small :building projects. The largest application was one fom George C. Hutchins for a permit to construct a one-story dwelling on McDonald street, at an estimated cost of $5,000.. The project includes a breezeway and garage. William Reid applied for a ELEVEN APPLY FOR PERMITS Some improvements have been made in the harbor area and further changefr are under consideration, it was disclosed in Town Council. Study is being given to a plan to speed up traffic by designating one-way streets. In that event, traffic would probaly be required to turn to the right at the bottom of Harbor Hill and circle the pumping station, instead of going straight through to the beach. There has been in- creasing traffic congestion due to. the heavy traffic to the beach and the large number of trucks now going to and from the elevators. n't swim in the deep channel. Council _ authorized Councillor Bisset to investigate and take ac- tion to have the ladders extended if necessary. Councillor Tipple brought up an- other matter that was referred to the water, light and harbor com- mittee for investigation. He said he had heard complaints about the finish on pleasure boats getting scraped when the vessels dock here. Someone had suggested that this be remedied via a plan that ,would involve the driving of spillf in the piers. Councillor Tipple pointed out that other ports are going to con- siderable pains to attract pleasure yachts, which bring extra business for the merchants. He said that Kincardine has built showers, kitchens and all types of accom- modation for these summer visitors who travel by boat.
