still interested in-george- town cr ern hyde told council on saturday the original deal handled by last years industrial commiss ion bogged down when the re quired land was sold as part of a larger parcel to another firm now the firm would be inter ested in one of two other pare els cr hyde said but there was still one stumbling block one of the lots has been sought by a local firm ferro steel the ferro firm has not indic ated it would pick up its option under the towns terms he said and council authorized this to be included in the quebec neg otiations cr hyde said he understands the firm woold build 30000 sq feet to start fallowed by three more equal additions the firm would also be acqui ring further land adjoining this which is now owned by me tropolitan halton developments and cr hyde said he has been assured by firm president bruce mclaughlin that he would ex change these lots for two others owned by the town in order to accommodate the industry sell six more acres to towns new industry an industry as yet unknown by name to all but a few civic officials is purchasing 6 acres in addition to the 35 it has al ready acquired from the town at a special council meeting sat afternoon council endorsed the sale of two more townown ed lots adjoining the acreage sold two weeks ago the transaction will involve closing a further portion of toddhoad mayor gibbons told council that the firm has indicated it intends to take up its option on the whole property this week and the extra two lots are an integral part of their plan i understand they will initi ally construct at least 250 000 square feet and possibly 400 000 he said and over a per lod of seven or eight years this will increase to a million as various operations are closed out at other present locations the mayors elation was shar ed by a majority of council me mbers although reeve hunter expressed some concern about the rapid disappearance of the industrial land purchased last year from delrex developments a good share of this land is now tied up by two firms he said with a relatively small tax revenue from the initial build ings and no assurance when more construction will take place fm not too sure several smaller industries wouldn t be better than one big one he ob served mayor gibbons reminded him that there are no other concrete offers for the land and that as long as it is owned by the town there is no tax revenue at all deputy reeve young wonder 5th georgetown scouts reach highest level fiankbj by their paients are john riley and jim freeman two 5th georgetown troop scouts

secret a said cr hyde the mayor in vited me to a meeting yesterday as industrial chairman and it wasnt a committee meeting as for expediency the firm wants to close on wednesday this is a big big firm and they dont railroad things they have to know what they are doing and the whole deal hinges on these two lots if the deputy reeve is under the impression something hasnt been revealed hes wrong said the mayor this whole thing started when a man call ed me from toronto and said he understood we had land for sale i showed him around with the town engineer there isnt one thing i haven t kept council informed about georgetown has been looking for industry now it is here and council shouldnt quibble about a couple of lots he said cr emmerson accused the de puty of small town thinking bending over
