eredaguai aqtee of 147332 over and above the taxes on the houses which would either reach the town treas ury from taxes on commercial and industrial property which might come or would be paid by the company in yearly instalments during the term of the 3year ag reement it would be a separate agreement for this specific build ing project and would not alter the rest of the 1954 delrex agree ment which calls for maintenance of a 6040 ratio before further house building is allowed in the subdivision criditon newvpresident chamber of commerce jack crichton general manager jol alliance paper

topic our town is our future who was introduced by harold ccinre a town without a chamber of commerce is like a ship without a rudder he said m introducing his subject and he pointed out that a chambers function is to boost the agricultural commercial and m dustrlal activities of a community choose your rut carefully you will be in it for the next fifty years was his advice in urging those present to work for an ac tive organization which will make georgetown a better community the keenest competition todav is between towns he said and not individuals in the horse and bug g days customers traded in a community mostly because they could not travel to the next one todav highways can take business out of town just as fast as they can bring it in he warned and there must be cooperation among merchants to keep local business and bring in more as for industry it just doesn t appear on your doorstep but is a concentrated effort of a whole community he said he recited instances where an industrial loc ation had been aided by chance remarks by a service station atten dant or a restaurant waitress who boosted a town when asked for opinions if a town s climate shows civic pride it is a big step in interesting prospective indus tries he said industrial promotion is highly competitive he said outlining some of the things which he con siders important in trying to at tract industry expansion of ex lsting industry is all too often neg lected he warned and a town should see that present industry is happy frequent contact with banks railways and the trade and industry branch is important too there are three classes of peo ple in a community he said in clo sing people who live off it people who live in it and people who live for it in which class do you belong mr banstow reviewed last years chamber activities which included circulation of an indus trial brochure placing of waste containers at various locations town and completion of the park gates a joint project with the women s institute a successful christmas decorating contest for homes and stores had been con tinued and the chamber had as sisted in the santa claus parade held a golf tournament and a lad les night and shared cost with the town of a promotion advertise ment in a special issue of the financial post the financial re port was given by the retiring sec retary mrs art scott in a brief presented to council mr bairstow said ha anticipates the houses would all be finished by the end of 1959 they would com prise 147 pair qf semidetached houses 183 single houses m the r3 area and 51 houses in the r2 area thehouses themselves would produeeva total tax revenueof 221000 at existing tax rates having in mind the urgency of the matter from the standpoint of both the town and ourselves the brief concluded we request a dec ision by apnl 10 whereupon a for mal agreement could be prepared discussion and decision on the proposal was left till next monday when it was decided that a full council should be present for any decision cr alfred sykes was ab sent from the meeting the proposal had at least one op ponent in cr hyde who termed it the same proposal which council had turned down last week in a new wrapper cr harrison expressed his con cern with school accommodation present schools can only take care of the present population and at least a 16 room school would be needed to s the new homes he said he also expressed dissatt tion with a large number of semi detached houses in one area cr elliott asked if delrex tends to fix up present subdivision roads before new building starts and if the company would post a bond our agreement calls for finish ed roads and as soon as a street is built up the roads will be finish ed vie was told as for a bond delrex has the reputation for pay ing its bills and we dont anticipate needing such action the delrex proposal mr bair stow explained was a modification of an idea mentioned by j when council as a conimiueb met 1 with company officials last wednes day the school problem is one which any growing town faces he tent comes the town will stdlhave this problem we feel this proposal more than fair to the town said mr bairstow if its going to be a question of exorbitant payments then delrex can t proceed we acknowledged a year ago that for the present we cant live up to the 6040 agreement and if it is to be enforced we must close our operations if residential building halts it will have an adverse effect on in dustrial promotion he said and reminded council that it is just as important to delrex as to the town as a whole to keep taxes reason able this proposal is a far cry from cr gunn s suggestion and doesnt compensate the town for what we are behind now by lack of lndus- tr coming said cr hyde 1t delrex wants to come and offer 2 substantial cash deposit for re lease of a building lot we can consider it but this i cant see social and personal mr and atrs w orr 4 mar ket street returned
