etc., at a cost not ‘to exceed $1,000.00. Carried,

Alderman Mabbett referred to a: problem in developing new subdivisions caused
by existing sidewalks being broken out to obtain road access, such as the one on
Prairie Avenue at. Cedar. Drive, where the sidewalk has been left in a state of dis-

repair for several months, and one newly started on Cedar Drive just one block
North of Prairie, where the ruble has been piled so. that it obstructs the path

of pedestrians. The. City Engineer advised that sufficient funds are. deposited

however, members of Council expressed concern that pedestrians have to walk out

ith the City by: developers to guarantee that this sort of. thing can be corrected;

_on the road to avoid the piled cuttings, and Alderman Traboulay requested the

City Engineer to instruct the developer of the subdivision on Cedar Drive to have
the sidewalk repaired by 4:30 p-m., Tuesday, October 2nd, 1973.

Alderman Traboulay referred to the apparent. increase in breaking and entering

offences, mentioning one incident in particular where three youths were apprehen~

ded burglarizing a. small stere; however, as two were juveniles, they were releas-~

ed the next day and returned to school where they proceeded to discuss the affair

in a jesting manner with other students, and he proposed the following motion:

make a joint submission to the Attorney-General that more probation officers be.
placed at the Justice Building.

for another Judge that the Attorney-General has provided for this area: Alderman
