The contraci was signed in the faîl of 1 976, and unless it can be ammnended, the new Street (Bonacoi d Ave.) will have to be built, says George Seidel, a representative of Belinont Construction Co.

Plannirig Director Kevin Tunney ýassu red thle residen ts that Bonacord Ave. wouldi flot link up with Adelaide Street ini OsImwa, making it a major arterial road. Mayor Jim Gartshore said that had beeni the original plan, but il was discarded. Councillor Tom E 'dwards told the residents the rozid wouild iiot be available for travel uintil the subdivisionî is completed in four or 'ive years. fle aiso stated that the town is asking for federal assistance to build a bridge on D'Hfillier Street at the CPR to make this a north- south road which wvould relieve traffic on Cochrane Street. Mayor Gartshore said further development to the west would mean the con- struction of another north- south road west of D'Hillier Street, to be called McQuav Boulevard. The mayor said Bonacord Ave. had been a road allow- ance for ïnany years and had been approved by council in 1971. However, he said, the neighbouring residents had received no notification of a zoning change when the officiaI plan wvas drawn Up two years later.
