The Policy should be that the Town assumes responsibility within

Committee feel that Council should decide whether to accept any
additional responsibility. The Committee sees problems in excavating
too close to basements or foundations. The materials causing
problems were however, accepted by Council when the houses were bUilt.
Where work is done on private property the restoration work should be
at the discretion of the Town Superintendent in consultation uith the
Owners.
