The Supplement contains . detailed concession maps of the areas affected by the airport site and adjacent development. The Pickering location was selected after three years of 'investigation and" analysis of 89 sites. In a question and answer column, the Ontario Government says: "It is simply not realistic to suppose that anyone can document the case for a different site that would help service the needs of the 23 million air travel- lers expected to be using Toronto-area airports by 1985." Under the name of the North Pickering Community Development Project, Ontario has established an Airport Information office on Brock Road at the 4th Concession road, just north of the CPR tracks. Residents requiring information. by telephone should check with Bell Canada for the number, which is expected to be installed this week.

Dymond (MPP), better known as Mall to so many people in this area, has announced his intention to retire_from medical prac- tice. In making the announce- ment, Dr. Dymond said that after 30 years in practice, he feels he should follow some of the advice he has given over these years, and take things a "bit easier." - However, those who know Dr. Dymond can probably guess that when-he says he is going to take thing a "hit easier' this doesn'l mean he's going to be whiling away the hours in a rocking chair with his feet up. When asked -just how he plans to spend his "leisure" time. Dr. Dymond said he has 'many. many. many activities." Of course one of his major activities has always been seeing to the "affairs in Ontario riding as Conservative member in the Ontario Legislature. As well. Dr. Dymond said he plans to devote some time to his gardening. and to "pultering around in the cellar." (continued on page 12) 'and because of this the required pumps, motors, ele., and providing a connec- ting main . . . . and that all of these, facilities be turned over to the Village at no cost to the Village."

The cost to Athika for the construction of the new well, is estimated at around $100,000 a cost that Port Perry would have had to pay since the Village has re- cently. determined--a--~new: syslem must be built to accommodate residential and industrial expansion planned in the next few years, Reeve Robert Kenny said this means'a saving fo every waler user in the Village, the Reeve said he is satisfied with the proposals. Sam Oyler said it would be good for Port Perry in that it would gel a $100,00 well for .nothing. And he added, "the industrial site will be good for Reach Township." Dr. Dymond expressed satisfaction at the prospect : DR. MATTHEW B. DYMOND of the new site creating new jobs for this arca, and also creating industrial assess- ment. "I'm a great believer in progress," said Dr. Dy- mond, "and growth depends onthe availibility .of jobs.®' Mr. Charles Love, a"repre- sentative of Athika said the 32-acre site could house up to 12. new industries, with several firms now showing an interest in relocating. Pending current' negotiat- ions, one industry could be on the site as early as May 1 and could employ up to 80 persons by October.
