Road proj. worries landowner
By Janice Becker
Though construction is underway
at Cone. 2-3, Sideroad 5-6 of Mor
ris Township, the matter has not
been settled for one landowner
affected by the project.
Keith Elston, who owns land
upstream on the flood plain, next to
the river, is concerned that the
building-up of the road on either
side of the bridge, will create more
flooding upstream on his land.
Mr. Elston says, "At present the
road floods two to three times per
year, as does my land, but the resi
dents are not cut off. The flooding
of the area is an act of nature and
should not be changed."
"A similar plan was rejected in
1977, after an engineer’s report,
because the council at the time felt
the project was too costly, haz
ardous and would restrict the flow
of the river," he says.
Mr. Elston says, "The building-
up of the road (on either side of the
bridge) will restrict the flow of the
water and ice during the floods and
force it under the bridge. The force
of the ice on the bridge will be
incredible and the resulting ice jam
will cause greater flooding up
stream."
"I am considering my livelihood
and I don’t want to spend $2,000 or
$3,000 each year replacing fenc
ing," he says.
Mr. Elston says he doesn't think
the expenditure of the money can
be justified. "A concrete pad bridge
was built in 1977, at a cost of
$50,000 and it is now being tom
out and used for rip rap. The money
should be used for other services,"
he says.
Construction of the new road will
cost $40,962 (excluding taxes).
Reeve Doug Fraser says, "The
reconstruction of the road was on
the five-year plan for the township
and has been in the works for two
or three years. We have the engi-
neer's report and council decided to
go ahead with the project."
