The new water plant was ade- quate to the needs of from 20,000 to 25000 people, with industries, he pointed out. Its value was $812,000, Tt served 1700 domestic users, 230° commercial users, 65 industries and 150 hydrants. Ser- vice was given to 113 new users between July 15 and October 15, about 230 new residents being given service during the year. Consumption increased from 135 million gallons in 1947 to 216 mil: lion fn 1949. All water used was Grade A. He pointed" out that it would be necessary to spend $200, 000 to build a filtration plant some time in the future. The sys- tem's revenue, he said, was ade- quate to retire its debenture debt without increasing its rate struc- ture, and he would recommend no further expenditures on plant next year. May Increase Rate Regarding the light plant, Mr. Lofquist stated that it had no debenture debt. "Joining the hy- dro was one of the wisest moves we've ever recommended," he de clared. "It has enabled us to give better service, with the lowest rate structure domestically and industrially, in our history." A 5 percent rate increase might be necessary during the coming year, he predicted. was making money, all of which was being spent on constructing new lines and rehabilitating ex isting ones. He was in favor of the commission acquiring its own sub-station instead of using one owned by the Hydro. He said that by next May Oakville would be on 60 cycle power. A sum of $125,000 sub-station equipment would enable the commission to eliminate the danger of power interruptions such as occurred recently at Preston. When the present improvements in ther] street lighting system were com- pleted, Oakville would have one of the best lighted main streets in Ontario. A. Weatherstone, 1950 chairman of the public school board, Who was given an acclamation as trus- tee for Ward 3, gave a lengthy re- view of the public school situa- tion, stressing the tremendous requirements made necessary by the town's rapid growth. "There are big changes in the air" he declared. "The problem of proper education is a very serious one. He pointed out that within the next two years the board would have to provide accommodation for between four and five hund- red additional children on the west side. By next September Westwood school would have five additional class-rooms, besides a workshop and a home economics room. A school in the Forster Survey would have to be built by September 1952. Mr. Weatherstone pointed out that work on the Westwood addifion had been badly delayed by material short- ages. It was necessary, he said, to prepare for the ultimate con- struction of a senior school on the east side of the town and one on the west side, and to acquire a new site for a junior school on the west side. "Last year's budget was $60, 000," said Mr. Weatherstone. "Next year's will be considerably more, as we will have to add to our staff of 21 teachers."
