Photo by Scott Studio, Whitby - ToHave Complete Data On Proposed Sewer Plan Whitby's Council has taken the necessary steps to have all the facts and figures in the proposed sewer system by October 19th. At this week's meeting of council, the engineering firm was authorised to call for tenders on the. job, a spe- cial committee of council was in- structed to continue negotiations for easements and to find out what it will cost to purchase sites for pumping stations. Council will then publish the questions that will be asked in a _ at the same - time as the municipal election. Council also heard proprietor of one industry make a plea for a sewer extension to his property in the sewer plan. Di. .ussion of the new sewer plan, which ik estimated to cost in the neighbourhood of $200,000, was led 4 r. Stewart, an engineer from Kilborne Engineering Com- pany. which is making plans. He suggested that the council decide how this work was going to be paid for and also get ' permission from the Ontario Muni- cipal Board. In the past, he said, # had been found wise to get a from that Board. He said that his firm had made applica tion to the Ontario Department of Health Jowe time ado ad final approval was expe shortly. with the CPR and he said, were well underway and the plan for the sewers was now complete. Specifications are aleo to be available for contrac- tors shortly and he felt that ten- ders could be called almost im- mediately. About the only thing that remained to be studied was the matter of hydro power for the pumping sations, be added. . Reeve McIntyre was of the opin- ion that the tender price, the cost of easements for sewer lines and the cost of sites should all be ob- tained as soon as possible in order that these figures could be pre- sented to the ratepayers on nomin- ation night. Mayor Harry Jermyn pointed out that it was the hope of council to place these figures in a question before the people at the election. Town Clerk John R. Frost explained that this informa- tion would have to be published at least .three weeks before the Question was put ALL FOR TENDERS Reeve Mcintyre then made a motion that Kilborne Engineering W. C. Town & Sons FRIGIDAIRE AUTHORIZED DEALER WHITBY PHONE 410 Company call for tenders immed- | ately, that the committee of coun- cil get all the information on the costs of easements and the costs of sites for sewer pumping stations and have this inforamtion in the hands of council by October 19th. Councillor Doris Holliday seconded the motion which won the unani- mous support of council. At this time, Mr. Harry Arnold, proprietor of Pickering Farms, was granted permission to address council on the matter of the sewer program. Mr. Arnold asked ¥ it was the intention of countil to in- stal a sewer to his packing plant and was advised that this was the case. Mr. Arnold stated that his firm annually spent one million dollars in this area of Ontario pur- chasing livestock and other farm produce for their processing plants. Much of this money, he added, was returned to Whitby merchants. in the form of purchases. Pickering Farms, he said, now employ some 20 to 25 persons but if a sewer extension were made, he said, an addition costing $25,000 or $30,000 would be built which would double is- | the payroll, "You are looking for new ,' said Mr. Arnold, "Yet you are not looking after the industry you have. You are making an awful mistake if you do not put a sewer out to that plant. So much so we'll have to get out of Whitby." There was some discussion then as to whether Mr. Arnold's prem- ises had been given the benefit of a tax exemption for sewer charges. Mr. Frost pointed out that his firm paid the full business tax. Mayor Jermyn added that a sewer exten- sion to the Pickering Farms would cost the town $36,000. * | '"That's only peanuts," replied | Mr. Arnold, "when you are spend- ing $200,000." He had never heard, he said, of acking plant with- | out a sewer. n he had opened his plant, he said, he had md led to believe that a sewer was | going to be built in a matter of months. "Who led you to believe that?" asked Reeve Mcintyre. Mr. Arnold declined to say but added "It would only cost $25,000. "Only cost $25,000," replied Reeve McIntyre. "It's alright for C. D. Howe to say 'What's a mil- lion?' but this is only Whitby." "You are going to spend $200,- 000," said Mr. Arnold, "you might as well finish the job." Reeve McIntyre asked Mr. Ar- nold if he thought it wise to spend one eighth of that amount, or $25,000, just to service one in- dustry. x {MAY SLIP OFF HOOK Mayor Jermyn asked councillors {what their opinion would be if a | new industry came to the town, planning to hire 40 or 50 persons, | | | and asked for a $26,000 sewer. "Their chances of getting it would be preity good," he said. Now, he said, council was faced with an industry on the hook. "We are going to slip off the hook," warned Mr. Arnold. The discussion was dropped at this point with a promise by the Mayor that the matter would be given further study. , WHITBY DAY BY DAY Accounts of social events and news items of local interest and names of visitors are ap- preciated.
