82 The Canadien Champion, Milton, Ont., Wad., Juiy 17, 1974 Putting it altogether, the an- nounicement of the major hydro line location means another "wsl" on the nortb of Miltonas urban ares. Add if to the CN elevated railway and 401 to get the impact. Mix in the major greenheit designations on thse three aidea to get thse com- plete picture. TIse hydro route, as now ap- proved by the province, twill parallel Highway 401 fromt High- way 6 east to Milton's west boun- dary. It does aome wsndering around the racetrack, above Five Sideroad and then juat east of Highway 2a dips along the railway lmne before angling down to bet- ween the Fourth and Fifth 110e to s major substation at Main St. and the Fifth Une. The line hetween the Fourth and Fjfth Line is then projected north ton to near HigIs- way 7. Continuing east along the railway line the horizontal route shoots south along the Ninth Une fo a major aubafation at Milton's southero boundary. Those Who seul be happieat with tee decision are those that wjll not be affected by if. We ail kout, the need for hydro and tee neceaaity osf transmission corridors but we al prefer that they be somewhere else. Undoubtediy the route has been tee subject of study and public debste. At somne point s decision hsd te ho mode and the provincial goveroiment ended up wite te teorny problero. Hydro had earlier chosen a more norteerly route and test drew protesta in Nassagaweya and Wellington. Now tee route hs been shifted south. Moving thse lino soute mont undoubtedly increaise land pur- chase conte with land prices being higher in tee furteer soute areas. We suspect that prices in thse Missinsauga ares will ha much different than those furteer north. The lino attempts te follow green haIt designations imposed esrlior for service facilities. In te Milton area those service corridors or green halte are tee largont on te map 50 it would seem the town's other houndaries may so Solon see furthor 'barriers." Putting it ail togeteer if mesns test Milton's urbain growth is hammod inon ail threo sides with another block to the soute esst left wide open for the 00w town visualized in the Toronto Centred Region Report of noverai yearn ago, ail of which is in tee present Milton boundaries. The im- plications of that planning are yet te ha revesled, alteough govern- ment land purchases in tee ares may give a hint. MAPLEHURST CORRECTIONAL CENTRE IS nearing completion. The $13,500,000 ultra modern facility ia scheduled to be completed by March. The aerial picture gives an accurate viene of the sprawling complex. Sgrand Spice Perhaps there was a plaintive note in Regional Chairman Alan Masson's suggestion test wo should give regional governtnent a chance, but ho cao hardly have been realistic when ho recently suggested criticism should wait te 1985 rateer than 1975. The chairman waa spesking in bis informaI press conference that ha periodically holda te discuas the operation osf the newly-esinblished regional goveroment for Halton. He vilas ohaerving that people expert foo much fou fast from regional goveroment. Ail regions, ha suggested, wite tee exception of Toronto, are too young te ha properly judgod. If is frue that tee peth te rogional govertiment bas 00f been onsed by those firaf introducod, for teose test followed. Halfon, 000 of tee 15sf introduced, seema f0, have provided as msny horror steries as we heard from those living in arons which wore regionalized earlier. Experience, vie suspect, should have eliminated some of the problema. Introduction of regional goveroment bore W55 n0f without ite preceding studios. There were many and if seas hoped mont of the possible problems would have heen anticipated and ronolved before Many municipal peliticians are hasitant f0 grant permite for the construction osf homes toilons town neafer ils supplied. The reaaoning in teat some day neelI neatur may not ha available at that location. That stand offen appears te ha unduly raufious or planning for eventualitios that will nover bappen. Politirians placed in surIs a position miglst do well te ronsider tee plighf of Robert Slessor 0f Old Waterdown Rd. Siessor hooghf bis home toco and n half yenrs ngo nsumîng an adequate water supply neas available. If neaso't, and n0w Slessor is faced wite poying $7,0001 for asone inch lino ta book ont o thse fosen neater supply and a furter $5,000 or $6,000 if a town water main was ovor to ha oxtonded along test rond te service tee nine or 10 oteer homes in tlsaf ares. Sleanor te apparently liilling te deal in those terns but a joît like test would mon giving up tse implementaiion. From tee weekly nenes reporte if ils clear f0 noe that W55 00f the case. The form of govoromnent has been buffetod by criticism sehich bas been legitimate and which wo hope will pave thse way for more respensivo and responsiblo form 0f government. Those elected aro frustrated wite the comploxity of getting teingn done which once were simple; those appointed are frsutrated wite tee absence 0f key policies that have not bad time te mature. Priorifies are missing as esch representefive attompta te clear up the mont immediate problems wite whjch ho is familiar and little time bas been available for long-range planning. Holding tee election i0 Octohar should have provided good lead time but procrastinafion tonk ite teil. The full impact of the new form of goveroiment ia about to reach the citizens when they finsfly gel a complote fax bill. Early indications are so confused thaf they def y analysis but the resoîf weill soon bave f0 ha conveyed fa those ex- pected to pey the coste. We suspect tee rafepayers eon't ha content te witeold their criticinm until 1985 for some solemn and detached judgment on the succens or failure of regional government. bouse for many homeownera.
