"The stage is set. We are getting dloser and dloser ta the growth mode. Growth won't be a piecc of cake but it is staged and phased and can be managed properly." Upon retumning ta town five years hence he expects ta sec new subdivisions and a bit of a different charac- ter ta Milton. In response ta recent criticism from business graups about the planned easterly expansion of town priar ta a westemn thrust, Mr. Hipgrave played dlown the con- sequences of the initial growth pattem. 'There shauldn't be a concemn about where growth occurs. There will still be development ta the west and downtown will still be the core. We tried ta avoid the huge growth." Mr. Hipgrave said bis five years in Milton werc inarked by constant policy changes from the provin- cial government. First the NDP brought in the social contract and expenditure contrai plan, which was the beginning of reduced provincial grants, he noted. The Tory govemment came in with a whole new agenda, he explained, including a reorganization of program and financial responsibilities under Who Does What. In addition there are plans for a Greater Toronto Services Board and a review of local services under the HASR. "(Who Does What) did not tum out the way it was planned in some ways,' said Mr. Hipgrave. 1 think it's a first step in an ongoing process. Sa far it's nat as dlean as was hoped but there were some good strides made." of the f1cm Brown, Scorfone Hawkins. Licesd ta practice Iaw in Ontario and New York StaSe.
