municipality will levy its share
of the cost; is not within the
jurisdiction of the board, (This
was in reference to the farm
owners' concern that Bos.an-
quet proposed to assess the
majority of its apportionment
directly against the lands con-
cerned.)
"Tile table prepared by Mr.
Todgham showing apportion-
ment of costs represents a dif-
ferent view and a variation on
the basis of the levy. The
benefit which in the reports is
termed 'recreational' is to
some extent intangible and the
board finds that a levy of 25
percent of the cost on those
in the area of the authority is
ample for the additional bene-
fit they may receive. By the
same reasoning the board can-
not agree that a smaller per-
centage of the costs should be
apportioned a gai n s t areas
which will receive direct bene-
fit; as an instance the town
of Parkhill., which will receive
tangible benefit in. several
ways."

Reviews aroyments
The board's decision review-
ed the arguments presented by
Bosanquel and Stephen. The
appellants disagreed with the
recreational benefit, pointing
out the proximity of the Pine-
ry park and they disputed
the prices used to value the
crop benefit from the dam to
the Haig lands.
Consulting engineer H. Todg-
ham, Chatham, proposed that
the general recreation benefit
be substantially inc r ea s e d
against all municipalities, He
also submitted that the crop
prices and production figures
should be based on the years
1958.60, rather than the period
1947-56 which had been de-
scribed as the "golden years
of agriculture",
The board decided:
"As to the figures used as
a basis of calculation of agri-
cultural yields and returns, it
is the board's finding -that in
calculating a long range .pro-
ject such as that proposed, the
averages over a nine-year per-
iod are more reliable than the
figures for isolated years,
