Whitby redevelopment was the theme, and Whitby lawyer O'Connell is chairman of the Whitby downtown redevelop- ment committee. The committee was set up late last year and held a meet- ing earlier this year with rep- resentatives from the Central Housing and Mortgage Corpor- ation and J. Brown of the plan- ning branch of the Department of Municipal Affairs. Since then, mainly because of endless rounds of amalgama- tion meetings, the redevelop- esc Mn ttn ITE ment scheme received little at- tention. Councillor O'Connell feels it is time the issue was again given consideration by council for action next year. At the meeting, the govern- ment representatives outlined generally what a_redevelop- ment program would entail: a study of the downtown area, the preparation of a scheme and the implementation of the scheme. At the meeting, Mr. Brown suggested the study include traffic surveys, servicing plans and population _ projections. From this study, the commit- tee, along with the provincial planners and consultants, cou'd come up with an overall down- town scheme. The committee was advised nisi A 0 vat wi En the federal government would pay 50 per cent and the prov- ince 25 per cent, leaving 25 per cent of the cost of redevelop- ment to be borne by Whitby ratepayers. ONLY HALF Mr. O'Connell pointed out that in case of a partial re- development study, the senior governments would pay only half the amount. Mr. O'Connell says the town could undertake to proceed with the first two steps, the study and scheme, at the same time, since much of the statis- tical material is readily avail- able. Mr. O'Connell explained that the town hall had records of the various ages of the down- town buildings. Many were con- structed more than 100 years ago, and council had already authorized a traffic study for downtown Whitby. The reason funds were not provided for redevelopment this year, according to Mr. O'Con- nell, was council felt the amal- gamation issue was more pressing at this time. He said the cost of the study and scheme preparation would be between $5,000 and $15,000. Mr. O'Connell says the amount needed for the first two moves in the downtown re- development should be in the 1968 budget. If the scheme is prepared, redevelopment could come about in two ways. The federal government, through Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, could provide the Utica ate Nk SIMULATED EMERGENCIES ARRIVE AT THE AJAX-PICKERING HOSPITAL THURSDAY NIGHT «e-Communications Provided By EMO For Hospital Exercise NURSES AID DR.

Mr. O'Connell explained that if the downtown area was re- built by private enterprise, they would have to make arrange- ments with the government to repay them for the price of the land. He said the developer would benefit through long- range, government financing of the scheme.

Brock and Dundas streets would be rerouted around the project, which would include ground level shops under 10 or 12-storey office complexes and indoor parking levels. "Patchwork in the downtown Whitby area is not the solu- tion," said Mr. O'Connell. "The new Whitby would be an advan- tage to the merchants and would bring the town's resi- dents back to Whitby for shop- ping." Mr. O'Connell suggested the new town council put a tem- built one at a time, and that property owners and merchants be invited to participate in the scheme. Mr. O'Connell said he would like to see the hub of Whitby remain where it is, where it can be readily policed and serviced.

"The net return to the town mittee with the redevelopment committee and take an active part." Mr. O'Connell said some citi- zens would oppose the plan be- cause of the initial cost to the ratepayers, but in the long run, he said, it might be the only solution to the slow death now being suffered by Whitby mer- chants, Perhaps the fact that during the past ten years the business volume of downtown Whitby has increased only 10 per cent, while the population figures have doubled could decide when and how Whitby will be re- ttn nA Oshawa simulated porary bylaw into effect, freez- uA EMO, Hospital Staft Face 'Disaster' Test AJAX (Staff) -- The Ontario|departmental duties and routes Emer-\were indicated to the person- Organization | nel. along with the Ajax and Picker-| ing General Hospital produced FIRST LOAD spectacular poh night in a simulated disaster, @'tived at 8 p.m. and doctors Simulated patients, cally made up to represent a Alvar of ginal ' ce for|ment after completing the card acta the hospital 10! describing injuries.
