Brad Johnson, of Project Planning Associates Ltd., said total cost of the plan prepara- tion is a "maximum" of $12,000. "Development of a wide range of parks and 'ecreation facili- ties, preservation of lands in their natural state, control of erosion as well as a guide to other developments such as land acquisition, new housing areas and the civic square proj- major functions of the master plan,' said Mr. Johnson. He said a master plan is es- pecailly valuable when the scale and complexity of the project require that the actual develop- ment is carried out over a num- ber of years. "The master plan, showing the untilmate development, can be staged to ensure the most growth and can provide an in- valuable aid in preparing muni- cipal budget programs," Mr. Johnson. "As a device to guide the overall development, the mas- ter plan should not be consid- ered as providing detail draw- ings for tendering purposes," he said. "As each element or area within the master plan is slated for construction, detail design, working drawings and specifica- tions must be prepared within ed by the master plan." the landscape architecture de- Associates, said his firm, which of landscape architecture, civil engineering, municipal plan- ning and urban design depart- ments.

"Is there any reason to believe that the expressway will not be going through" asked the mayor. None of the six aldermen present said anything. Later the mayor said: "Will anyone here deny that the south portion of the ex- pressway has not been adopted by council' No replies. "Will anyone say tonight that they are determined that the expressway will not be built north of Bond st." questioned the mayor. Ald. Christine Thomas noted that council has not said where exactly: the route will be going north of Bond st, And she said it it does not go north it shouldn't be started in the south. Council expects that a HERE'S HOW COUNCIL FEELS final Damas and Smith re- port on the éxact location of the expressway north of Bond st., will be received in November, An interim re- port was received in June. Fred Crome, city works commissioner, said it is his understanding that council has adopted the fact that the expressway will be built "in or about the creek val- ley", He said council engaged Damas and Smith to deter- mine exactly where the route should be located. A final report on the southern portion of the route was adopted by council in principle in January. Mr. Crome said $3 to $4 million has been spent im- plementing the 1962 Damas and Smith traffic planning report to date. He told The Times after the meeting that government subsidies have paid for "close to half" the implementation expendi- tures. | Consideration of a r Lakefront Rezoning Plan Tabled By Planning Board tail its r for asking coun- request to permit a ote million dollar residential and commercial development on lakefront land was tabled Wed- nesday night by planning board.

LG AONE A POOLE TIE ITT NCTE ONE ET ouncil Set To | On Master Valley Plan Thomas, Shaw Say Council "Put Cart Before Horse" City council is well on its way to hiring a firm of landscape architects to prepare a master' plan of parks and open space for the Oshawa Creek Valley. Meeting last night asa com- mittee, council, on a 7-2 vote, ag! to recommend at coun- cil's Sept. 20 meeting that Proj- ect Planning Associates Ltd., be engagd to prepare a master valley plan from Lake Ontario (including the harbor and park areas) to the north city boun- dary. Brad Johnson, head of the landscape architecture depart- ment of the firm, submitted a written proposal to council, showed slides and drawings of his firm's work and answered questions at last night's meet- ing. Cost of the master plan was estimated by Mr. Johnson at $12,000. Opposing the recommendation were Ald. Christine Thomas and Ald. Margaret Shaw. In favor were: Aldermen Cecil Bint, Cephas Gay, Hayward Murdoch, Alice Reardon, Rich- ard Donald, Alex Shestowsky and Mayor Lyman Gifford. Ab sent were Aldermen John Brady, Norman Down, Clifford Pilkey and Gordon Attersley. NEED DETAILS Ald. Thomas said she was not plan but said until more ex- pressway location details are known she was not in favor of hiring an architect. "IT feel this is putting the cart before the horse," she said, Ald.

Shaw also said council should know exactly where it is going with the expressway be- fore hiring an architect. cleared away," "HOT ISSUE" Ald. Shaw said the express- way is a "hot issue" and that regardless of her own opinion she would vote for or against it according to the wishes of. the majority of Oshawa citizens. She said she would be prepared to introduce a motion that an expressway plebiscite be held at the December, 1966 municipal election, Mr, Johnson said it would be to the city's advantage to have she said, ees opposed to the idea of a master al "I'd like to see the cobwebs ye . and Smith while traffic consuls tants are plotting the exact pressway route, , He go ae based on the po He m g ui s3Hé a® se structed. cided not to way the a Ps Eze = i i s which would cost money than the 000 fee.
