Gray, acting chief of the department of public works pro- perty section, said.- "I f a larker centre could be found for us, we would move there. If not, we vrill try te find another location suit- able to everybody."" The present office is too small and cannot be enlarged, he ex- plained. "It has about 2,500 sq. ft. and we need at least 3,900 I do not think we would consider two separate centres, as that wouild be too, expensive." Ideally a new centre would not be t oo f ar from the presetone, hie said. More.space is needed both for the driver examnination centre and for the selling licence plates. "Oshawa is getting pretty big, and there bas -been a sharp jump ini business," he said., "The same is true across the province., We are having to enflarge most of these offices." The present 'Centre 'has 12 staff members, who are hamlper- ed by a shortage of working space.
