Wingham Public School Addition Proposal In view of the present proposal of Lucknow District High School. 'amalgamating with Wingham District . High School, the following story in last week's. Wingham pap- er 'will be of interest here.. ' A letter from •the Ontario Kin; icipal Board to the Town .of Wing- ham .last week refused approval for necessary financing to builad; a; new section to the public' school... Where this, leaves the Municipal- ity in•regard'to the .necessary add- ition, to the school, and a planned. addition' to the high school,••is anyone's guess, • • Mayor DeWitt Miller has. expres sed his deep concern'' and is at present hoping to have a delegatior from thetown 'meet with officials. of the Municipal" Board,: Prices receivedfor the erection of the. structure are good for only 30 more days, after which" time they will be void unless a contract is signed. • • The letter from the Municipal• Board readd as ;follows: "The Board can not_ approve the. calling Of tenders at thus time 'for the addi tion :to the public school as the .ex- penditure contemplated appears .• to be beyond the financial capac- ity of. the municipality. • • 'When the 1965 audit report is available, a copy should be for- warded to the Board, :together with a 'capitalexpenditure forecast .for the period.` 1966 to 1970. The • Board will then review this applic ation." „ '• •:.• ' ' As can, be seen the .Board did not indicate'why. it •felt. the •necessary financing for the school wa's be- yond capacity. eyond•capacity. It is understood ,that ' such -arbitrary decisions are made in the light of a municipal ity's debt 'structur'e in relation to'' • its assessment figures and growth factors. - At the present time Wingham carries a totaldebenture debt. of $699,088.;10 of which .$409,766.50 is the :responsibility• of other mun- icipalities due to, high'"school fin- ancing'. This leavesa total of $289,321..60,. . AS well the community has fin- anc.ed with the Ontario Water Res-' ources Commission and Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, the: sewage program which amounts to '$296,979.41.. However, the municipality was given to. Under-. stand when the sewage program wag being arranged; . that the loans by government organizations would" . 'not affect its. position •in regard to total 'debenture debt Also coming up is.the financing • of the town's 10' per cent share of the new Hanna Memorial Bridge • cost and a loan from the :Depart-. ment of 'Energy and Resources' Man- agement for 25 per cent of the cost of work being carried out on :the river by the Maitland Valley Conservation Authority. The,existing debenture debt covers two issues on the public school which will mature in 1970 and 1976; .two on the high school maturing in 1974 and 1979; one 'on the hospital due in 1975 and one on the arena maturing in 19!

HOOISMA, — Prop. • WRDN iSDAY, ,MARCH 3001,,1 Municipal Board leaves tIre rPublic School Boardin a very nasty posi- tion. Building. plans were started because the boiler in the 90 -year old school buildingis onlyholding, together by .a prayer.. ' The prov- incial powers will not allow the installation of a new boiler in the old school,. andit was found by the board to be nearly as costly to build a separate boiler room as• it.was.to do a proper job and re- build the; school... This .situation is' partly due to the fact that if any building program is to, take place the Department of Education, demands" a library,• and the,need for .an auditorium=gymnasium is 'obvious.'; It will be interesting to. follow .the events of. the 'next few. weeks, 'for it is: certain -that something has to give. The. old boiler<at the school, :according to school. auth- orities, just won't last ;another . • winter. Likewise, with the move'• for amalgamation between the • Lucknow and Wingham High School districtsit will be necessary to build. Even without amalgama- tion the high school board. is faced with a building program to accom''accom- modate the additional pupils from the Wingham district who will be attending theschool over the next five years.
