4The Cariadiaa Statesman, Bowmaiville, Jan. 14, 1970 EDUTORlAL COMMENT Mayor Skates On Extremely Thin Ice Tri his inauigural a(>ddriess last week ta the 1970 town counicil, Mayor Hïobbs departced from his prepared script to lnject a suggestion that members would be well advised to take a strong stand ûn current iLncentive and designiated area prograïns by senior governments, {e imacle spi-,fic mention of the $845,- 000 fecleral governmrrent grant to Osh- a wa's Diiplate industry that will assist them ini setting up a windshield plant i~n Hawkesbury, and also referred ta Coodyear's hose plant in Collingwood that was built several years ago after they had qualiiied for a federal desig- Yaated area grant. He appeared to feel that these grants were unfair because f.hey removed plants !rom their present areas, causing hardship to employees who either had to move or be out of woý0r k. Wec (an well recail the dismay that -'Stick this ,ommunity when Goodyear announced that they would build the hose pla nt in Collingwood, and the dis- ruption that took place for mnany f ar- his in this cormni.îty. At the time, it certainly ,vas an unhappy situaion and thiere wias considerable dissatisf action Iwre, inln'y because the plant woulid have added considerably ta the town's Industrial assessmecnt and its employ- ment opportuniitîi for. Bowmanville .and area citizens. However, that dismiay is long since past and, in thie meanitime we have 'been, on the rec-eivinig end o! somne of the crýeam of a similar programn initiated by the province, whose incentîve grants have b3een responsible for several new and thrivî,,ng industrie-, locatîng" here. Honieywell Controls is a prime exaimple, Admittedlyv, we have still not been rzec- ognized as a designated area Iby the federal governmenit, and, fran-kly, we- are not too eager to be in that classifi- catilon because it would mean that we. were in fact, a depressed region, need- ing considerable help . .. which we are not. It is ta be hoped that Hîs Worship's commefits on thesubject will not dis- courage the Ontario authorities and par- tîcularly Trade and Development Min- ister Stanley Randail, from continuing ta authorize financial help for new in- dustries wishing ta ljocate in Bowman- ville. We've clone quite wel 5 far fro m the incentive grants and we would hate ta see the boat rocked while there was stili hope for more. Maybe His Worship would be wel iadvised ta stick ta hbis, prepared script- in future.
