THURSDAY, MARCH 10, 2005 THE NEW TANNER 3 Ey 2 <7 LEGEND , x Prestige industrial Sign deal for 401 corridor... Continued from page 1 -- the investment: they made through the financ- ing plan will be applied as a credit towards the water and wastewater develop- ment charges they must pay to build in the area between Fifth Line South and Trafal- gar Road. Savoline thanked all who helped make the deal a re- ality and talked about the opportunities the deal will create. "The new businesses that will be attracted to this area will bring with them more opportunities for our current workforce to live and work in Halton Hills," Savoline said, adding it will open up opportunities for the next generation of business leaders. In his prepared remarks Halton Hills Mayor Rick Bonnette said development by the partners in the cor- ridor marks the beginning of _ a new era of industrial and business growth in Halton Hills. "Opportunity to launch a business park, as we are doing now, comes once in a generation. By entering into this agreement we have kick started a process of industrial development in Halton Hills by seven to 10 years," Bon- nette said. Mold-Masters's Jonathan Fischer, speaking on behalf of the 401 corridor land- owners, called the signing a "very significant" move that clearby sends the signal that Halton Hills is open for business. He had high praise for the efforts of Mayor Bon- .nette and Town Council, saying the deal would not have happened without their diligence. He also thanked all of the Regional officials and staff for their hard work on the deal. Fischer said while wait- ing for government to make decisions on a development can often be a long and pain- ful process, that was not the case with this deal. "Everyone at every level worked together. Each party understood and realized that we had more to gain as a co- hesive, co-operative group," Fischer said, adding the deal, that took just a year to put together, is a "spectacular success" that they all should be proud of. After the ceremony Fisch- er said his company is in the design phase for a new 300,000-square-foot head- quarters, research centre and manufacturing plant on the west side of Trafalgar Road to relocate its manufacturing plant from the Georgetown industrial area. They hope to break ground late this year, and be ready to open when the water and wastewater services are in place in 2006. Following the ceremony Bonnette said the impetus for the financing deal was learning just over a year ago that Mold-Masters, the Town's largest employee could leave Halton Hills and build its new headquarters elsewhere because it could not find serviced land. "This is a tremendous op- portunity. Not only will it bring the Town more (tax) assessment, but it gives an opportunity for Halton Hills %| Acton Proud member of the Canadian Jiu Jitsu Associations e @ - Jiu-Jitsu cit Martial Arts and Self Defence for Adults & Children oe wy : --< LADIES SELF DEFENCE Mothers, bring your daughters! : (519)853-2424 5A MILL STREET, E.
