Attersley, Whitby Town Council Monday night de- cided to expropriate the preme ises known as 300 High Street, Whitby. The building, now used as an apartment house, was at, one time the Ontario County Home for the Aged. Mr. Attersley said it is his hope that council can sit down with a developer so an apart- ment building, to blend in with the surrounding area, can be built. While there were only five building lots in the property, the town would be getting rid of a fire and health hazard. He was of the opinion the town could recover much of the money it would require to se- cure the property. Mr. O'Connell said that every member of council was fearful of the loss of life that would ensue if there were a fire in the building. He said it would be next year before all the legal matters connected with expro- priation could be completed. He asked that all possible speed be made to secure the property. Councillor T, Edwards and Reeve George Brooks both commended Councillor O'Con- EXPROPRIATE 300 HIGH STREET HUGH O'CONNELL man ROBERT ATTERSLEY nell on his motion, saying the action was long overdue. Coun- cillor Edwards said the town could have purchased the prop- erty in 1954 for $50,000. The price was now $82,000, he said.
