PROSPECT 0F AIRPORT ON SCUGOG ISLAND AROUSE S ANTAGONISM Lake. Scugog residents are con- cerned, about the prospect of having the new Toronto international Air- .port constructed Wn their area. Sckigog Island has been quoted as one of thse four possible sites and, in a CKEY radio broadcast :on March i 8th, was reported to bc the one Premier Davis favoured in recent Ialks with the federal government on the mater. The site is especially .attractive because a large buffer zone area already exists and would not have te be expropriated. (55,000 acre buffer zone is required for the 5000-10,000 acre planned air- port). Aithougli the decision where to locale the airport b as not been taken, Scugog residents are muster- ing forces to be ready te oppose it if it should corne te their area.
