The building is located on a 1.7 acre site bordered by King, Centre and Athol Sts. It will house 1300 head office staff employed by the Revenue Ministry. At a press conference in Oshawa last week, Ontario Government officiais announced that tenders for the seven storey structure would be called in 1980. The building will be ready for occupancy in 1982. Estimated cost is $30 million. When Ontario's tax collectors move to tbeir new, $30 million beadquarters in Oshawa, close to 600 job openings could be created in the Durham Region. In a press conference beld last week at Osbawa's City Council Chambers, Revenue Minister Lorne Maeck said that, about haîf of the Ministry's bead office staff is expecting to continue to work witb the Ministry of Revenue when it relocates in Oshawa in 1982. He noted tbat tbe Miistry bas 1300 employees at its head office and if baîf of tbem decide to relocate, this would leave 650 job openings in Oshawa. Mr. Maeck added, bowever, that it is difficult to predict the number of employees who would relocate, noting that many of tbem, may change their minds before 1982. Figures indicating baîf of tbem would bewillig to work in Oshawa' were based on a staff survey. Meanwbile, somie of Ontario's civil servants have already joined the exodus to Oshawa. "Some 22 employees have moved into new bomes in tbe Durham area since tbe move (of the Revenue Ministry) was first -announced. Another dozen are now preparing to relocate their households. In aIl, more than 60 of tbe Revenue' s employees are now living in Oshawa and otber Durham Comimunities. This number already includes some local residents wbo bave already joined the Ministry in anticipation of our move," said Mr. Maeck. The revenue minister said tbat as many as 300 head office employees are expected to move to new bomes dloser to tbe Oshawa office. Describing tbe seven- storey, 461,'000 square foot revenue building, Mr. Maeck said tbat the structure would be an attractive addition to tbe changing face of downtown Oshawa. "And I would like to tell you personally that the Ministry of Revenue is looking forward to becoming a permanet part of your community. " Under the present construction scbedule, public tenders for pbase one of the building will be called in the spring of 1980. Construction will commence in tbe summer of that same year and occupancy -isescbeduled -for late 1982. The building is to be located beside Osbawa's City Hall at tbe corner of Centre and King St. Michael Ogus, arcbitect for the project,, said tbat tbe newest addition to the city's downtown skyline would serve tbe general public as well as governrdent institutions. "We're hopine, this will be a people place, ' he explained during last week's press conference. To accomplisb tbat goal, sôme of tbe revenue building AO; THE-NEW RUSSIA'N AUTOM'OB..

A total of 17.000 souare feet of ground floor space will be used for these purposes. Space whicb is flot rented for commercial uses will be utilized by other government ministries now leasing space in Oshawa. Mr. Ogus explained that the soutb side of the building 'which faces Oshawa City Hall and the St. George's Churcb will be an open, landscaped, public area. Another special feature of the' Revenue Building will be a large atrium or open area in the centre of the structure. The atrium could be used for exhibits or meetings. Energy conservation will be a key feature in the design of the building.ý Lon Pencak, assistant deputy minister of accommodation for the Ministry of- Government -Services, exp-lained, that windows will be triple glazed and there will be extra insulation i walls and roofs. In addition, body heat and the warmth generated by lighting, office and mechanical eipent will provide heat insie the building during the day. Any, excess heat generated inside the building will be reclaimed and stored in a water storage tank which will be the primary source of heat during non-business hours. In spite of the energy-saving features, the building is not expected to be more costly than a conventional office structure. "For the effort that's been applied, we estimate that the cost of the building per square foot will be the equivalent of a normal office building of a similar size," Mr. Ogus said. Government officials, representatives of the media, and the general public were informed at last Thursday's meeting that the government building has been designed for the needs of the Province of Ontario during the next 20 years. Thirteen hundred persons will work in the building wben it opens in 1982 but the structure can accommodate up to 1700. "Our caseload bas been going up as our staff bas been going down," Mr. Maeck said.
