time it was completed would be approximately 19 mon Bearing in mind that it is a year and a half project it is all that more important that we press on quickly if we are going to do this at all

complex have had a demoralizing effect on the town s staff and reminded council the pre sent situation of having departments spread all over the town just wasn t satisfactory Hyde added everyone must remember it is going to cost the taxpayers a lot of money anyway just to keep operating the municipality in the present situation Duby said it was more valid now to build a municipal complex than at any other time before and suggested the town proceed with the project Hyde said all indications from councillors were that they agreed the Seventh Line offices was the best site for the expansion and that it would best serve all the residents in wards one two three and four This is the site which should be developed and it is practical to have all the departments ntimi I il The Viclona Day holiday
