*xf ‘Tear Down Or Rebuild Â¥Yet To Be Decided Talks are under way at presâ€" ent, with a local firm capable of doing this work and Mrs. Pilug stated that it is hoped that an early decision can be made so that renovations, if deâ€" cided upon, may be completed as soon as possible, The reason â€" for considering major alterations to the arena are that, the front foyer â€" conâ€" taining _ the _ dressing _ rooms, asnrooms â€" ticket booth and refreshment booth â€" layout is not very good for pedestrian Araffic. The materials used for the front section are not conâ€" sidered good for prpoer mainâ€" tainance. Community Services Coâ€"ordinâ€" étor Kenneth Pfilug reports that they have received reports on test borings taken last Novemâ€" ber 26â€"27. They were taken on the advice of architects to see whether the front portion would take major alterations. The reâ€" port indicates that before major alterations could be proceeded with, _ the â€" existing _ footings should be shored up to carry the added load that would be imposed upon them. There were three MEpods of shoring SUgF®Z%edf by Dominion Soil Ineaoffigations Ltd. of Scarâ€" Borough. who made the test borâ€" ings, the favored method is one where holes are prebored using & continuous flight, hollow stem auger. Concrete is then injected under pressure down the centre of the auger as it is withdrawn. Under existing conditions, this method is considered the most économical and most feasable. Plans in the offing, said Mr. Pflug, include complete renovaâ€" tion of the front area with addiâ€" tional area built on one side to accommodate new dressing yooms. The piping, which was causâ€" ing considerable trouble a short while back, has apparently reeâ€" tified itself as no further prob Jem have arisen. To tear down the present arena or remodel it seems to be the question at the moment. l4 E.

Bauer, howâ€" The Ontario Housing Corporation together with the Fedâ€" eral Government is considering the development of public houâ€" sing in the City. In the first instance we must establish whether there is a definite demand for such accommodation and this can only be achieved if _ interested families complete and return survey questionnaires. The rents would be geared to income, tenants paying a percentage of their gross income in rent regardless of the size of the unit. The houses would probably be of either row or semiâ€"detached design. Units could have up to four or five bedâ€" rooms. Questionnaires are being sent to all tenants in the munâ€" icipality in order to determine the number of applicants who would be interested in obtaining the proposed type of rental acâ€" commodation. Interested families and senior citizens are reâ€" quested to complete and return this card immediately. Anyone who has not received a questionnaire may obtain one from: REMEMBER Only by filling out a questionnaire NOW can you help to determine whether a project should be developed.

The arena itself, he said, has nothing wrong with it, however, the addition on the front is setâ€" tling and pulling away from the main «building â€" this could be corrected by concrete pilings Until a firm decision has been arrived at, said Mayor Bauer, we will have to bear with the present building, what will be done will depend on The Am ount of Money Available. ena available for the maximum mount of people at the most nominal charge. It is a service to the people of Waterloo. "I have nothing against minâ€" or hockey", he said, but my perâ€" sonal feeling is that teams de siring early and. or late ice time should be accommodated by on arena in the area, not by all th‘ arenas,. This becomes too ex+ pensive an operation that could be avoided.

The mayor‘s feelings regard ing the renovations, do not in clude building the front out to its present location, but rather merely enclosing the end of the arena, and building dressing rooms at the side. The alternative would be to dis mantle the entire building and either sell it or relocate it in another area.
