Dog Control Costs Citizens $8,800 WHITBY (Staff) -- Dog con- trol in Whitby is costing tax- Payers a total $6,300 per year exclusive of a $2,50 item set aside in the budget for capital improvements to the pound. This represents an assessment to the taxpayers of $8,800. Offsetting this cost to some extent is an estimated $3,000 ex- pected to be obtained through dog: licences and pound fees. Of this estimated amount, $2,206.74 was collected by town officials up to the end of June. The Whitby Branch of the On- tario Humane Society will. be appealing for assistance from the town in establishing an ani- mal shelter, at the regular coun- Problems jestablishment of the animal shelter to eradicate any prob- lems that are arising from op- eration of the dog pound.

The figure could to about seven cents per capita*atter other surround- ing municipajities joined in the loperation of the shelter, "The sown is not being asked to purchase the site or build the shelter," Miss Sissons said.

Using the above suggested ratios, a town the size of Whitby should provide 48.9 acres of cen- tral business district including shopping centres in the 'frame area' and, 26.9 acres of high- way commercial development Neighborhood centres and others would total about 24.4 the home of Mrs, Glen Man- derson, Mrs, Orr Graham gave a reading and Mrs. Lorne Jones took the topic, Plans were laid for a bazaar, supper and pro- gram Nov. 5 in the church, Mrs. Donald Jamieson pre- sided for the Active Serice Class meeting.

In determining re- quired parking requirements for the central business district the ratio of 2.5 car spaces per 1,000 square feet of commercial floor area was used by the students conducting the recent survey. Each car was considered to require 300 sqare feet (includ- ing access lane), The estimated commercial floor space in the CBD required to serve a popu- lation of 33, is 690,000 square feet. This is based on 21 square feet per capita, Using the above standards as a 'rule of thumb' parking facili- ties between 1965 and 1985 would be 1,720 stalls. There are now about 718 stalls so this would mean an increase of 1,002 stalls, This total number, however, is not required in total during the first 10 years, There would THE OSHAWA TIMES, Monday, November 1, 1965 § te bring this about.

The problem could be met by a combination of methods. The Municipal Act, section 286 allows a municipality to assess any part or all of the cost of such parking against those prop- erties which are benefited, Due to poor financial status of many local businessmen however, it is suggested, that only the cost of levelling, paving and lighting) of parking lots be assessed against the businesses. | The costs of acquiring the necessary land could be met in the initial stages.
