Hydro line effects are variable
An independent study
involving more than 1,000
farm properties in Ontario
indicates that Ontario
Hydro's transmission lines
have variable effects on the
market value of agricultural
lands.
The 18 -month study,
recently completed by the
consulting firm of Woods
Gordon and Company, was
commissioned by Ontario
Hydro with the knowledge of
the Ontario Federation of
Agriculture.
The study involved a
detailed statistical analysis
of 1,000 farm properties to
determine factors affecting
property value and the
likelihood of results oc-
curring by .chance.
As well, detailed farm
property appraisals were
made on some 30 properties
affected by transmission
lines together with 125
similar properties not af-
fected by a line.
The study examined six
high-voltage lines: one
500,000 volt line built ten
years ago; and five 230,000 -
volt line segments built
between 1941 and 1974 and
located in various
agricultural areas of
Southern Ontario. The
Woods Gordon study did not
address the immediate
impact that transmission
line construction may have
on agricultural land values
or use.
Wide variations were
found in the effect of electric
transmission lines on
specific rural property
values. The finding clearly
indicates the need to con-
tinue to appraise individual
properties and confirms
present Ontario Hydro policy
in this area.
Analysis showed factors
such as date of sale,
proximity to towns, villages
and highways, soil quality,
property size and the extent
of farm improvement play a
more important role in
explaining the differences in
selling values than do
transmission lines alone.
The study also showed that
transmission lines are more
likely to lower the selling
price of properties in areas
where rural estate
development or land
speculation is occurring.
Transmission lines do not
appear to affect values of
land devoted strictly to
agriculture.
Results were inconsistent
for the 500,000 volt line.
While the statistical model
predicted property values
could appreciate in value,
the appraisal analysis found,
on the contrary, that values
depreciated by 12 percent to
28 percent with an average of
20 percent. One appraisal did
indicate a 12 percent ap-
preciation.
In general, the Woods
Gordon findings contrast
with a report entitled "The
Socio -Economic Impacts of
Electric Transmission
Corridors" prepared in 1977
by the University of
Waterloo and released by the
Royal Commission on
Electric Power Planning in
1978.
This study concluded that
values of all properties af-
fected by a transmission line
were reduced, with the
largest effect on small
properties and a decreasing
effect for larger properties.
Ontario Hydro, with the
knowledge of the OFA,
questioned the technical
support in the University of
Waterloo study and in 1979
decided to obtain a more
extensive and complete
assessment of the economic
impact of transmission lines
on farm property values.
This study indicated the
need to continue to appraise
the impact of transmission
lines on individual proper-
ties.
