FAMILY PARADISE
yet
PZA
Sir:
The comments of Ontario Fed-
eratien Of Agriculture
President. Frank Wall about
Hydro's new policy for acquiring
land for transmission line rights
of way (The Brussels Post)
creates a false impression of how
much property owners will be
paid.
1. Hydro has always paid 100%
market value for land it buys, plus
injurious affection to the
remaining lands of an owner
where applicable. The new policy,
however, allows for additional
compensation beyond that for
Such things as disturbance to a
bonafide farm operation.
2. If the owner wishes to grant an
easement for the right of way
instead of selling, payment is
75% of market value for the basic
property rights without any
towers. Additional compensation
will be paid for each tower located
on the easement. based on an
allowance of 75% of market value
for one acre for the first tower,
80% for the second tower, and
continuing to increase by 5% for
each additional tower. If towers
are involved, the total payment
for an easement can be in excess
of 100% of market value,
depending an the number of
towers.
Mr. Wall noted that our. new
policy did not spell out that Hydro
should buy an entire farm if the
transmission line right of way
took so much land that the farm
becomes uneconomical to work.
As in the past, if the owner and
Hydro agree that the property is
made unworkable because of
Hydra's need, then we will buy it
all. It is impossible to be more
definite than that. The owner
must agree to sell the whole
property, because Hydro cannot
prove the necessity of
expropriation.
A key element of the new policy
is that, generally speaking, all
property needed will be
expropriated. This. is not for
Hydra's convenience or benefit.
By following this practice, all
property owners will be placed on
the same footing and, most
impOrtant, all will be assured that
their rights are safeguarded
under the province's
Expropriation Procedures Act.
Mr. Wall commented in less
than affectionate terms about the
alleged conduct of some Hydro
property agents in dealing with
owners. This has been tediously
echoed by'the Ontario Federation
of Agriculture during the past
year without valid basis or
supporting facts. In response, I
can only quote from our Code of
Field Practices which is
impressed upon all our agents:
"There is no place for an
autocratic manner. Every
representative should at all times
be courteous..informative and
factual s.. of the individual
owner's concerns." Copies 'of
this Manual are available to any
property owner who wants one.
Despite Mr. Wall's criticism,
he does admit, "If these changes
announced...by the top brass get
sanded out in the fields, fannert
will indeed benefits"
Let me asstire your readers that
this policy will be followed by
every Hydro employee. If it is
not, I would like to hear about it.
Yours very truly,
Property for Director Of Property
