City Approves Land Exchange On 2 narrow 7 to 6 recorded vote Monday night, Oshawa City council decided to give up the corner property at the southwest corner of Centre and King sircets in exchange for Z. T. Salmers' property on the southwest corner of Prince and Bond streets. The city wants this property to aid in the development of a central bus loading depot, This is in line with a recommenda- tion in the Damas and Smith traffic report that bus loading and unloading should be re- moved from the King - Simcoe area, The city paid $55,000 this year for its corner property, Council was told Mr. Salmers paid $16,000 for his corner property two years ago. LOT SIZE REDUCED Why the even exchange? One alderman reminded that the Centre - King property was bought by the city to facilitate! a jog removal at the intersec- tion and the property had been reduced in size. In addition, he said, the setback requirement on King street reduced the ac- tual area which may be built on even more. buildings at 26-28 Prince street. Now, council was told, he plans a $40,000 building on the new site. Ald. John Dyer and Finley Dafoe pleaded for integrated development in opposing the exchange. "There is a plan of develop- ment. for the whole area," said Ald. Dyer. (Council was shown slides taken of models which depict what the planning de- partment feels would be a favorable development for the block bounded by King - Queen- Athol - Centre streets). BUILDING INDUCEMENT "This plan is an inducement to potential building," added Ald. Dyer, 'Allowing this (Mr. Salmers') building will blur the vision which, I think, will con- trol this development." Said Ald. Dafoe; 'The entire block is ripe for $25,000,000 to $30,000,000 worth of develop- ment, But piecemeal develop- ment is no good. We must quit thinking like a hick town. "We have been told the secret of good planning is to keep the heart of the city strong. There is a grand opportunity here for private institutions to come in The vote went this way: For the\ exchange -- Ald. Hayward, and make golden returns."

Council, she said, was the last body from whom she had to get approval, having had tenta- tive approval from planning board and been granted a ten- tative liquor licence, the liquor board having approved the edi- fice. There was some doubt among councillors whether or not plan- ning board had given final ap- proval, and it was found that approval was given subject to certain site plans being sub- mitted. Mrs. Choquette was request- ed to go before the planning board again with her site plans an scale model, for their final recommendation. * The reeve was interested in what was uppermost, the motel er tavern.

DUTIES EXTENDED Besides carrying on over-all supervisory duty at the city sew- age treatment plant, T. E.

Formerly, Parks Commissioner Pat Kennedy looked after building mainte- nance. of the Apple Hill group at Sun- day's meeting. Mr. Whiting says he made the remark from the floor, before election. At that time, the mect- ing was in considerable confu- sion with remarks being made by members of the audience from rooms adacent to the main. one in which the meeting was being held.
