Hydro To Buy Land At $3000 Per Acre BROUGHAM -- A. E. Huddle- ston, of the Hydro Electric Pow- er Commission, accompanied by Mr. Anderson, explained to Pic- kering Township Council at their meeting on Monday night, why the HEPC wanted to pur- chase ten acres of the Town- ship's Industrial land. _ At a former meeting, Council- lors said that if the Township sold the land to the Hydro it would establish their assent to the route for the transmission lines. Also, there was some dis- sent about the price offered of $3000. per acre. Mr. Huddleston explained that the 315 foot strip running through industrial land purch- ased by the Township was re- quired for the line, and for a railway running to the south. The line would extend from a coal burning Hydro plant to be built at the lake. The railway, he said, would be available to industry, and low voltage lines on the strip could possibly serve factories in the area. Mr. Huddleston explained that the route for the transmission lines had been decided upon as the most feasible, after studying ten other routes recommended by the Township Planning Board. The Board was not con- dent with the route that the Hydro 'selected. z Deputy Reeve Mrs. McPher- gon said that she felt the lines should follow the other towers now in existence; that the stake; and that the towers are ugly. things. She said she pre- ferred Route 5, which she con- sidered would not affect so many property owners. "Piles of steel stuck up in the area is not nice at the best of times," she said. '"'We should keep them together as much as we can." . Mr. Huddleston said there was too much difference in cost for Route 5 which would be $910- 000. more. (Total cost of the line is $2,943,000.), Underground in- stalment, he said, would not furnish the security of service, adding that 230,000 volts' could be twelve times the cost of over- head lines, and could take two or-three months to repair. ' Mrs; McPherson was interest- ed in when-the Hydro project would be commenced and Mr. Huddleston said that he could not say, but felt that it would not be within five years, but that it would depend entirely on the growth in the south part of Ontario. The reason they wished to acquire property now was that they felt development will come in this area. The Deputy Reeve said she was interested because it affect- ed her property, and wouldn't go behind anybody's back to say she was interested, in spite of a personal contact. She is also interested in the other porperty in the Township, she said, and suggested that the Hydro use Township has a great deal at the other route, which, in her opinion would not be as offens- ive to anyone. "Tf it was a small amount of money I could discuss it," said Mr. Huddleston, '"'but not for $900,000." . McPherson objected to the price of $3000 per acre. ""The Township is not a charitable organization," she said, "and we are not going to give the Hydro land for nothing. On industrial assessment we had hoped to help the people in the Township with their tax problems." Councillor Milton Mowbray argued that since the Township was trying to develop. industri- ally, it was going to have to satisfy the Department of Mun- ket value. "T think we are prepared to sell to industry at $3000.00 an acre,"? he said, "If we get more going to satisfy the Department that a smaller parcel is worth less. We are going to find our- selves pricing ourselves right out of the market we want to create. The price we charge is a very important factor in es- tablishing a basis for charging subsequent properties." A resolution was finally pass- ed that the land be sold to the Hydro within 30 days for $3000. per acre, with the provision that road crossings be sold back when required, and that access to any railway lines be retained by the Township. REQUEST LIBRARY Automotive Group Stresses Safety An Oshawa man heads an association which is the voice of 475 automotive firms. H. K.

Adamson, President of the Pickering Township Home and School Council, asked Coun- cil-to' consider a Library for the south part of the Township, since the north part were con- tent with their Association Li- braries, and helped to squash the question of an_ all-over Township Library at previous plebiscites. Councillor Mowbray suggest- ed that there could be a Library for a School area, but consid- ered it impossible for a large undefined area. Clerk L. T. Johnston said that it would require a vote, and no vote could be taken until next fall. A petition could be circu- lated and accepted with 50 per cent of the signatures for an area library. 'a Mr. Johnston was directed to write the Home and School Council and ask if it had con- sidered a library for School Area 2, which comprises the largest part of the south part of the Township.

"The second Rehabilitation Conference ever to be held in .{the Province of Ontario is slated Tifor the City of Oshawa Feb, 27, 28, and Mar. 1," declared Mrs. E. A. Collins, president of the newly-formed Ontario County Rehabilitation Council, at a meeting in her home Monday night. : : "The.. purpose of this three day session," Mrs. Collins fur- ther stated, "is to study ways of co-rdinating the many ser vice, agencies in a community and to ensure adequate help for those in need of rehabilitation." The first such Rehabilitation Conference was held a year ago in the City of Port Arthur when some 300 representatives from Winnipeg and Ontario gathered to study this new phase of com- munity co-operation recently or- ganized by the Ontario Depart- ment of Health.
