This study area- is com- prised of approximately 600 acres of land with 600 acres to be designated for in- dustrial purposes and a population capacity of some 9,000 persons. "I would ike to invite al of you tocome down to Thickson Road South, " Drumm told his fellow con- cillors. "There's ail kinds of industrial land there that's empty. " "We don't need the land 110w," he added. "The region is looking at the 21 st century when they should be dealing with now." The faur-year veteran of council pointed out that the sites of Mississauga and Brampton have "10 times as much industrial assessment as Whitby does, despite the Ontario government's Go- East Policy. " "And we're stili waiting for the expansion to the hospital and the new liquor control board warehouse," he said. The region has recom- mended that a new arterial road be built within the study area running east and west between Rossland and Taunton roads.
