This brought up the matter of electric signs, coal areas, and other encroachments ‘which I would ‘respectfully suggest ‘should be covered by permits. . Dealing with the matter of residential properties; I noticed that in several in â€" there were over development: on certain streets. These properties fwere discussed â€"with your Assessment Comimissicner and photographs of same Hollinger property, including lands and buildings, was inspected and, later in the report the matter of buildings will be dealt with. There is considerable vacant land area which I am informed at one time included a Lake subseâ€" quently filled with slimes from mine operations. This land borders the highâ€" way and runs for a considerable disâ€" tance southerly. This land, of course, has a value relative to the surrounding lands but the question arose as to the utility of this property. Boring tests were made at my request by the Minâ€" ‘ing Company at a point some three !hun‘dred (300) yards south of the highâ€" | way, at a depth of Six Feet Six Inches T would suggest that in future when buildings permits are granted, that a copy of the plans and specifications be furnished the Assessment Commisâ€" sioner as early as possible so that he mayarrive at his value of the strucâ€" ture without loss of time. We made an inspection of a numâ€" ber of buildings on the Mining Comâ€" pany‘s property but it would require the services of several men for a considerâ€" able time to properly va‘lue these buildâ€" ings in the usual manner of measuring them on the site. I suggesied to Mr. John Knox that the Assessment Deâ€" partment be furnished with copies of the plars of the various buildings as well as a plot plan showing their varicus locations. This request was imâ€" mediately complied with and the plans are now in the Town office, where it is possible for rechecking of same to be undertaken with minimum delay and interference. This in itself is a signifiâ€" cart consideration and leads me to beâ€" lieve that the Company is willing to meet your Department in a fair manâ€" ner. I was furnished, by the Assessâ€" ment Department with a schedule oi the assessed values of the Mining Comâ€" pany‘s buildings and, after inspecting several of the largest structures, I would respectfully suggest that before any alâ€" teration is made in the figures, a check of the plans be made. Photographs oi several of the larger structures were taken and are also enclosed herewith for your future office records. While inspecting the Mining Comâ€" pany‘s property I noticed that there was a considerable amount of new stee] fencing enclosirng same. Personally, I made inquiries as to the need of fencâ€" ing this property and was informed that the main reason for this was to ksep out the public from imminent danger. This is a precautior taken by> thee Minring Company and, as I could not locate any other propertiese in Town on which fencing was assessed, I came to the conclusion that the assessing of this improvement, as well as the driveâ€" ways, walks, etc., on the mining comâ€" pany property, might be shelved for the present at least. (Continued from Page Three) Assessment Procedureâ€"There is a wellâ€"known saying that "All value is relative". In inspecting your vacant lands I noticed that a great proportion comes under the category of "Mining Lands". Special attention and a great deal of thought was given to this. The (6 ft. 6 in.) slimes were encountered and at a depth of Ten Feet (10 ft.) the material encountered was in fluid form. I woauld not consider this site suitable for building purposes. I would, however, suggest that the Assessment Commissioner be furnished with a plan on which is indicated the cld shore line of the Lake in order that he may determine what, in his opinâ€" ion, is firm soil on which it is suitable to erect ‘structures. This land, if it abuts the highway can properly be classséd as suitable for industrial purâ€" poses and should be so assessed. If there is doubt as to the nature of the soil, boring tests might be made by your town ergineer. I.inspected the foundation work unâ€" der progress (as per photograph) for a Hydro structure located on the Viâ€" pond rcad and,. while there, conferred with the foreman in charge of the work. Wooden mats were utilized as a spread foundation for the posts. Slimes were encountered at a depth of about seven feet ( 7 ft) and while not in liquid form appeared serious enough to warâ€" rant caution in building on this site I have, therefore, come to the concluâ€" sion that any lands in this are not suitable for building purposes and therefore are classed as "mining lands". The matter of the vacant land in your ° Town now utilized for a Golf Course also received very careful conâ€" sideration. At a conference in Mtr. John Knox‘s office at which Messts. Shaw, Belanger and myself were preâ€" sent, we were informed that mining opâ€" erations were proceeding under this property. We asked for proof of this and were shown surveys indicating the work now in progress. ly, we walked over the property and determined to our satisfaction the apâ€" proximate location of the underground operations; further, we were advised that a large section of the surface maâ€" terial had been let down through the ground. A photograph indicating the open ground is enclosed herewith. In my opinion this vacant land should be assessed under the heading of "Mining Lands". The matter of value of minâ€" ing lands is on that should receive very careful thought and I believe that the figures now used by the Assessment Department‘are justified.
