Councillor Isaacson in the Chair.
The meeting of the Administration Committee was held on Monday, December 10th, 1979
at 3:00 p.m. in the Mayor's Office.
Those in attendance were Mayor George D. Timpson, Councillor Richard Isaacson,
Councillor Betty Pedersen, and Councillor Earl Stewart.
Item #1 -Letter 23-17 -The Arthritis Society
In view of the fact that the Arthritis Society runs a door-to-door campaign within
the municipal boundaries of the Town of Aurora and other fund raising events during
the course of the year, the Committee recommends that no official donation to the
Arthritis Society be made on behalf of the Town of Aurora.
Item #2 -Mileage Rate
The Committee recommends that effective January 1st, 1980 that the mileage rate be
25¢/mile plus 1¢/mile increase for every 5¢ extra per gallon "tank wagon" price
charged to the Town of Aurora for the supply of its gasoline. The Committee also
recommends that those persons presently on flat rates maintain a daily record of
their travels so that a policy regarding flat rates can be evaluated in 6 months'
time.
The Committee recommends that a By-law authorizing the payment of mileage to
members of staff and Councillors be prepared in order to give effect to the
foregoing recommendations. The By-law is to be done in metric using a rate for
kilometers which will be the equivalent of the rate for miles.

REPORTS OF COMMITTEES {continued)
The Committee advises that its recommendations are based on the price of gasoline
as of the date of its meeting and do not include any increases caused by the
Federal Budget of December 11th, 1979.
Item #3-1980 Budget Guidelines
The Committee recommends that increases in expenditure for all departments, boards
and committees be held to an increase of 5% over the 1979 budgets approved by
Council in 1979. This guideline is to be exceeded only where proper justification
can be provided for so doing.
The ultimate guideline is that for the total Town of Aurora 1980 budget, any
increase in expenditure must be able to be accommodated by the growth of Town
revenues through increased assessment so that there will be no increase in the mill
rate for Town of Aurora services in 1980. If Council is able to fulfill this
guideline, it will be the fourth year that the town has maintained the same mill
rate for Town of Aurora purposes.
The Committee recommends that Council direct that the following dates be
established as targets along the route to the 1980 Budget:
January 4, 1980
February 8, 1980
February 19 and
February 25, 1980
March 4 and
March 11, 1980
March 17, 1980
-All budgets from all Department Heads to be submitted to Town
Treasurer.
All Standing Committees to have completed their review of the
appropriate budgets and to submit same to the Treasurer.
l-Review of complete Town Budget by Administration Committee.
) Special Council and Committee meetings to deal with budget
)-only.
-Approval of 1980 Budget by Council.
The Committee further recommends that all 1980 Budget discussions be conducted in
public sessions, unless at the discretion of the Chairman of the session, there is
a matter to be discussed which is not properly placed in the public session.
Item #4 -Letter 23-57 -Recommendation regarding Mr. Bill Benzies
The Committee recommends that Mr. Bill Benzies be appointed to the permanent staff
of the Town of Aurora having successfully completed his 6-month probationary
period. This recommendation is based on the report from the Chief Building
Official, Mr. R.J. Harrington.
Item #5 -Mr. James Rae -Live Stock Valuer
The Committee recommends that the Ministry of Natural Resources be requested to
send in a trapper to trap wolves in the general area of the property owned by Mr.
Hickson. This is the procedure followed by the Town of Whitchurch/Stouffville in
this same general area within that Municipality.
Item #6 -Letter 22-68 -Rural Ontario Municipal Association -General Insurance
for Municipalities up to 25,000 Population
The Committee recommends that this letter be received as information and that the
Insurance Programme of ROMA be evaluated after it has had an opportunity to become
established.
Timpson: Resolved that Administration Committee Report #149 dated December lOth,
Pedersen: 1979 be discussed item by item and accepted and the Seal of the

REPORTS OF COMMITTEES (continued)
"The Committee recommends that a 1 etter of appreciation be sent to the Town of
Aurora and Fire Department for the years of service in providing protection to
a portion of the Township of King.
The Committee further recommends that for 3 months following the termination
of the agreement that should Aurora be called in honest error and respond to a
call, that the Township will pay for the call on the basis of the present
agreement.
The Committee recommends that advertisements be placed to advise of the fire
area changes in the following local newspapers; Bradford Witness, Newmarket
Era, Aurora Banner, King Weekly, including a copy of the new fire map and that
notices be mailed directly to each of the affected residents of the changed
areas.••
I was also provided with considerable background information which pointed out that
fire area boundaries have been under discussion in the Township since October 18th,
1978.
At the meeting of the Fire, Safety and By-law Enforcement Committee on January 9th,
1979, the Fire Chief of the King City Fire Department, Mr. Jack Hayles, advised the
Committee of the following:-
"Mr. Hayles advised that the King City Fire Department can handle the area
north to the north limit of Lot 31 and between Highway 400 and Bathurst
Street. This area would include the est side of Bathurst Street up to the
18th Sideroad. The west side of Bathurst Street north from the 18th Sideroad
would be best served by an adjoining municipality.
The Committee noted that this expanded area for the King City Fire Department
would eliminate the need to purchase fire protection from the Town of Aurora."
On July 9th,.l979, the Council of King formally adopted the new fire areas. Aurora
was advised of this decision by letter dated October 1st, 1979, from the Township
of King Clerk.
On December lOth, 1979, the Township of King Clerk advised the F.S. & B. Committee
that notices have circulated to all mailing addresses affected by the changes (in
fire call areas) along the eastern boundary of the Township on Friday, December
7th.
Mayor Britnell advises me that fire department personnel are also making personal
calls to each affected residence.
Furthermore, notices will appear in the local press and attached to the interim tax
tax notices to be sent out in January.
King Township is a separate municipality and does not have to gain the approval of
Aurora Council in order to rearrange its fire areas.
RECOMMENDATION:
I recommend to Council that the following Resolution be passed:
"Be It Hereby Resolved that in cases where the Aurora Fire Department is called
in honest error for a fire within King Township, the Aurora Fire Department be
authorized to respond, and that the Township of King be billed for the call on
the basis of the agreement between the Town of Aurora and the Township of
King, dated July 15th, 1977, and further that this authorization be for a
period of three months commencing January 1st, 1980."
