Scugog Mayor Lawrence Malcolm pointed out that council earlier in the day had agreed to a recommendation" to ask the municipality's consulting engineers to pre- pare a preliminary report on the reconstruction of Queen Street coverning all possibil- ities from a simple re-sur- facing to a complete rebuild- ing which would include the replacement of existing ser- vice lines. The recommendation is contained in a report on the condition of Queen Street prepared by the Mayor, and he said it will likely be two months before the consult- ~ = | A | YOU'RE INVITED! to see the new 20,000 sq.ft.

The Mayor's report, which was presented to council Monday _afternoon, outlines the possible action that could be taken to improve the condition of the street. If it could be proved that Queen. from Water to Lilla Streets is "critically deficient," pro- vincial subsidies could pay for 75 per cent of the cost of replacing services such as sewer, water, phone lines, gas and hydro. A second type of subsidy agreement with the provin- cial government could pay up to 90 per cent of the costs. If the council decides on a simple resurfacing, the pro- ject could be done as part of the Township's normal road RNALEE GREET TAY, Wo SLY a PPAR RY EE SALE EX AH BIA. construction and phased out whatever time period the municipality decides. The report recommends that the Township not con- tact the provincial govern- ment for subsidy until an agreement has been reached on the extent of the recon- struction. Mr. Patterson said after the meeting that he was not particularly pleased with the response he got from cou- ncil, adding that--he hoped they would have given some indication that the sidewalks could be resurfaced with the hot asphalt. And he added that he and the other bus- iness people would be taking further action once the pre- liminary report from the consultants has been com- pleted. 'Bids too high, plans scrapped for new bridge The planned demolition and reconstruction of an old bridge across the Nonquon River north of Port Perry has been scrapped for this year because the two bids for the project came in away over the cost anticipated by the Township. Roads superintendent Ron MacDonald told council Monday afternoon that al- though the 11 tenders were picked up by contractors for the bridge construction, only two bids were submitted, one at a cost of $118,000 and the other at $146,000. The bids were way over the $80,000 which the Town- This Week's Specials: Regular 49¢ SPECIAL HANG 10 and WILD & WONDERFUL BRIEF COVERS (Duo Tangs) 29: GS 115/8 ACCORING BINDERS Regular $1.45 SPECIAL 984% , 235 Queen St. - 1 port perry ¥ | SXQO\( Stationery & Office Supply -- Port Perry - 985-7383 Phe ON wore) CLAS I Pr Ta / A : AE $4 Vy AL fia ship anticipated the project would cost, including dem- ~ olition and construction of approaches. However, the bridge on the Swamp Road in old Reach Township is in bad shape and the construction of a new span will be a "number one" priority in the 1979 Township budget. While the Township engin- eers had estimated the cost 'at about $80,000, about half of this would have been cover- ed by provincial subsidy. The $40,000 that the Town- [i ship would have paid for its share of the project will be used this fall for new cul- verts and pipes in several areas of the municipality.

At issue is a land sever- ance application by a Tor- onto businessman for a 10 acre building lot on agricul- tural lahd in Ward 1 (old Reach Twp.) The severance has been re- jected by the local council, the Durham Region Land Division Committee, and the Ontario Municipal Board. However, an appeal earlier this year by the applicant directly to the provincial Cabinet was successful in getting all the previous ob- jections overturned, includ- ing that of the powerful OMB. Scugog Council has been ordered to pass an exempt- ion to the zoning by-law so that the severance can be finalized. Since learning of the order carer this summer council alked at the idea, and has the reluctance has been un- animous on the grounds that it could set a precedent for future applications to sever 10 acre lots from land zoned for agricultural purposes.

Mr. Jermyn added that both the OMB and the Cabinet can order municipal council to pass a by-law against the wish of local councillors, and failure to do so could place the council in contempt of a Cabinet order. While council did not lift the issue from the table, where it has been since tle Cabinet made the order, councillors Monday night seemed resigned to the fact that four of them at least will have to vote in favour of a by-law that none of them wants.
