The Goderich Signal-Star, 1973-12-13, Page 144614 PAGE 14-- GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 13, 1973 1 Hearings over on s,outh1torrn sewer The remainder of the appeals concerning the assessments for the. South Storm ,Sewer were heard last Wednesday night, December 5 M the Town Hall. Those present to air their complaints were Vince Young representing the Huron -Perth Separate School Board, J.T. Moyne, N.B. McEwan, Lloyd Lounsburv, Ross McDaniel, John Sully, James Erickson, Paul Howe and D. Smith. Mr young acting on behalf of the School Board was con- cerned that the property owned by the board on Bayfield Rd. was not assessed equally with the Public School on Blake;St. He stated that the Separate School prep rty was assessed twice as m h as the other and -, ..anted to now why. He 'also wanted to know if the School Board would be assessed again when the sewer proposed for Bennett St. becomes a reratt'y.' Mr. Moyne and Mr. Loun- sburv, who live across the road from , ,each ot her on Comox Crescent have similar com- plaints Both their properties face Comox and the side of their houses that face Sunset 1iYriv., have no . windows or doors through which they can see the present ditch. c Theyk..' both, however, have 'been assessed large sums for the beau ti!itation aspect t hat the closed drain' will give this area of the development. Neither feel that the assessment is fair and both state that their neigh- bours who are 12 ft. away respectively are assessed abtiul one-quarter as much as they are. Mr Moyne went on to say that ail t he people on Comox benefit and none have been c•hared. He feels it is unfair to burden the homeowner with the, large cost of service and claims the developer, however, can absorb the price by raising the price on his lots. He feels the town should have con- sidered the cost of the sewer more when it was first planned and should have worked out the costs then. Mr.•Lounsbury added ,that he was concerned with the con- ditions' of the roads in the development and asked when something was going to be done about it. He asked if the people were going to be charged for that too. He also si(ggested that the people who are receiving the $25 exemption should pay more. Mr. McEwan questioned the zoning of his property 00 Bayfield Rd. He- stated that despite the fact that there t.a.- tot of commercial development his land is stilt assessed as residential. He also asked how the figures were reached "Why have I been assessed the same as the Candlelight Restaurant and the Fina Station when their propr•rt� is 85 percent:roofarea and pavement an -d iffy --pec pertr---rs about :3 percent''" he asked. "We all have identical assessments." 1 Dan Murphy told Mr. McEwan that he would in- vestigate the zoning of the land in that area for him. Ross McDaniel questioned the manner in which the town was construurti"hg the sewer. "Why has not the town con- sidered the present develop- ment of\he land now in 1973 when they actually made the decision to go ahead with the sewer?" he questioned. "Why -are they still going under the pretense that the land is agricultural as it was in 1968 when they first planned . the project?" -John Sully' disagreed with the town's claim -that property value will go up when the sewer is completed. He also questioned the terms 'benefit' and 'outlet'. "Benefit according to the town's philosophy is the aesthetic" ,ot the caused systetti Verses the open ditch,., he said "Outlet, is the actual cost of potting the water into the sewer He went on, lierrtbt has in all case- been the higher ot the two cost- and as far as 1 ant oncerned rtit benefit of the sev%er 414 a,tua1 peltpoat' and that is the removal ykf water He maiitatrl-tat the closed .\stein w ill tat affect the proper,,Sue of his lilt 1 At►\ wU\ Mr 1':t i ti protested the .i/e of the sewer the tow h IS proposi,nt; Ile feels that both site and the , o,t of the sewer arc ()o er-isit1ated He also belie%es that the area north of Blake tit '<old west of Eldon Street which is now totall. ser- iced w It h ,ew ars shote Id he assessed -.incl' rhe\ . ill have the same it, tlet .t- t proposed South Sewer Ile feels that an\thinl,- krger than Ow size needed —1 dram ,the area assessed slur the future use of other areas of the town and they should be charged `Cor it now. �4 Paul Howe argued' that' hs►4a being forced to pay three ways for the sewer. "1 have to pay my assessment for the sewer, 1 have to pay for the town's assessment for the sewer to drain public lands and 1 have to pay the cost of gran- ting the $25 tax exemption," he pointed out. "1 also feel that the Cost should be based on the practical gains of the sewer rather than its aesthetic values." Mr. Smith had a similar argument to Mr. Erickson. He feels that the sewer by sheer size is being designed to,include other areas of the town and that' they should be assessed now. Toni Fortner had been represented last week by John Campbell, Wingham lawyer, but commented that it is unfair for 97 'people to pay for a ser- vice for 600 people.. There were • pickets outside the Alexandra Marine mid General Hospital In Goderich on Thursday afternoon of last week when members of the Service Employees International Union marched to show their support fol demands being presented to the Ontario Cabinet by senteeentatives in Toronto at the same time. The union action had no Hied o **mice at the hospital since the demonstration was volun tory In nature. The union members are not happy with gayer nment budget cuts for hospitals, compulsory arbitration, an. the Wei of minimum wages set for hospital employees. ••e P 44i • i 141i 1.4 • ONE SIZE 1 LADIES PANTI HOSE 3PAR1.00 Rose ORANGE TEA BAGS20s s1.59 PEKOE GARBAGE.
