Figures released at the Township council meeting * September 22 indicate that there were permits issued in August for $592,000 worth of building, a substantial increase over - the $345,000 worth last August. But more significantly, the figures for August this year may be an indication that the in Scugog may be coming to an end. The $592,000 worth of permits issued in August is almost double the $264,000 worth of permits issued in July, and this could be good news for local contractors and retail building Sy outlets. : Spokesmen for both Like Scugog Lumber and Peter- borough Lumber in Port Perry told the Star last month that retail sales especially for new home "construction are off consi- derably from last year. The August figures suggest that there is an upsurge in new house con- struction as there were six permits issued for single family homes, as opposed to just three the month before. . Despite the increase in the August values, 1980 is still lagging far behind 1979. As of the end of last month, the total value of permits issued" in Scugog was $3,192,120, just slightly better than half the" $5,446,830 worth of permits issued to the end of August in 1979.
