Mr. Griffen said that plans would be submitted to the council for approval. The building would cost $4,000 to $5,000, not counting the labour donated. Councillor Dymond felt that there should not be any objection to such a building, to cause them to withhold the deed. The Reeve felt the town solicitor should be instructed to look into the matter of giving a deed which would revert to the town in case of the disbanding of the Scout organization. A delegation was received from the Business Men's Association to discuss the problem of local parking. Several suggestions were made and it was considered best to withhold the use of parking meters as long as possible in the anticipation of some other solution. It was proposed that a parking area be made – the corner of Perry and North In February 1950 Sam Griffen of Lake Scugog Lumber presented council Streets suitability for parking were with plans for a log building for a Scout hall, at the corner of Lilla (Simcoe) discussed, by using tile in the creek. and Perry St., to be built at a cost of between $4,000 and $5,000.
