or the Township of grey, in the Co►tinty of Huron.
wNpt (n)
A By-law to provide a proper outlet for and otherwise for the im• s nrt Sal
provement and extension of 'Government Drain Number 2, in p4
the said Township and for borrowing on the credit of the Mon- n I
icipality the sum of Sixteen Thousand Two HIundred and Ten S w
Dollars and Thirty -throe cents ($10,210.33) for completing
the' same.
Provisionally adopted this Twenty-fourth Day of March, A.D. 1894.
Whereas the Drain known as Number 2, Government Drain, in the said Town-
ship, aonatructed under the provisions of the Outario Drainage Apt of 1873, and
payable by local assessment has heretofore bean and is now being weed as an outlet
for a number of other drains in the Township of Grey, and in the adjoining Mnniat-
polity of the Township of Elma, constructed under the provisions of the various Stn•
tutee in force respecting Drainage, and when the changes and improved outlet here-
inafter provided for are made, will he used by a large number of other lands in the
said Townships and in the Township of MoKillop for outlet, and it having been sat-
isfactorily established that the said Government Drain No. 2 his an insufficient out-
let, by reason whereof it is unable to carry away the waters which now reaoh it,
thereby exposing the adjacent lands to damage and making it impossible to properly
and efficiently maintain the said drain, it was thereupon determined by the Munici-
pal Council of the said Township of Grey, pursuant to Section 685, of "The Munici-
pal Act," to make a new outlet for the said Government Drain Number 2, and to
otherwise improve and extend the said Drain with a view to its greater efficiency
and to prevent the said threatened damage to the said adjacent lands.
And whereas, thereupon, the said Council procured an examination to be made
of the locality embraced in the said drainage system, including the said Government
Drain Number 2, by James A. Bell, a Provincial Land Surveyor and Civil Engineer,
and also procured plans and estimates of the work to be made by him, and also an
Assessment to be made by him of the lands and roads to be benefitted by the said
work including the lande of those who are using the said Government Drain Number
2 for outlet but who did not contribute to its construction, and those who may after
the said changes are made, use the same for outlet, being the Assessment hereinafter
by this Bylaw, enacted to be assessed and levied upon the lots and parts of lots
hereinafter in that behalf specifically set forth and described, and the report of the
said James A. Bell in respect of the said several matters is as follows :—
Sr. THOMAS, JANUARY 18r11, 1894.
To the reeve and Council of the Township of Grey,—
GENTnnarea.—I was instructed by your honorable body in August last to make
an examination of No. 2 Government Drain in your Township. I presented you
with a report on September 6th, 1893, as the result of my examination. In my re.
port I stated as follows : "This Drain which has its head or commencement on Road
Allowance between the 17th and 18th concession's at about the line between lots 28
and 29, and was constructed from this point westerly along the road to the Bean.
champ Creek.
It is evident when constructed that it was only intended to drain the lots adja.
cent to it. This is shown by the foot that it was originally constructed a small
drain, and also that only a small acreage was aeseeaed for its construction. I find
now, that through a system of drains constructed under the Ditohee and Water-
courses Act, and the Municipal Drainage Act, that this drain forme the outlet for
the waters of about five thousand acres of your Township and about four thousand
five hundred acres of the Township of Elma.
"The resent is; that the drain is entirely inadequate to carry off the waters
brought to it and consequently overflows and injures the lands along and adjacent to it.
"I have examined the outlet of this drain, or what is known ae the Beauchamp
Creek, from where the Government Drain enters it until it has its outlet into the
Maitland River, and I find that in order to make a proper outlet for said Drain, and
to prevent damage to adjacent lands, it will bo necessary to improve this creek to
the line between the 12th and 13th concessions, which ie almost to its intereeotion
with the Maitland River. This creek, as a whole, ie in a very bad state to form a
proper outletlfor the extent of country that drains into it. In planes there ie a well
defined channel requiring little improvement while in most of its coarse it will re.
quire to be deepened, widened and straightened, and have all the fallen timber taken
out.
"Those lands that are now using No. 2 Government Drain as an outlet, and
were not assessed for its construction, should be now assessed for its use, and the
amount so raised should be credited to the lots originally aeseeaed for the drain pro
rata to their assessment."
My report was read and considered by your Council and adopted, and I was in-
structed to make the necessary surveys, plana, profiles and specifications for the en•
largetnent of No. 2 Government Drain in order that it would be capable of carrying
off the waters brought to it, without damaging adjacent lands and to carry the said
drain to a proper outlet, and to assess the coat thereof against the lands and roads
and roads benefitted and using the same for an outlet, and also to assess the lands
and roads that are using said drain as an outlet and that did not contribute to its
original construction.
I now have the honor to report that I have completed the necessary surveys for
the carrying out of the work as above described and have examined the lands and
roads that will be benefitted by said work and that will use it as an outlet ; and have
also prepared plans, profiles, specifications and estimates showing the proposed work
in detail, with an assessment against the lands and roads that will use the proposed
drain and outlet for benefit and outlet. I hive also made an assessment against the
lands and roads that are using No. 2 Government Drain ae an outlet, for the value
of the drain from stake 294 (where the first drain enters) to the Beauchamp creek.
The value of this part of the drain I estimate at $1225.86 and the amount I assess
for the use of this outlet I have credited to the lots originally assessed for the con-
struction of the said drain and in proportion to the original assessment. I have
shown this fully in different columns of my assessment.
I find that there are Some lots in the 18th concession of the Township of Elma and
a small portion of the corner of the Township of Logan whose waters would natural-
ly trend and have an outlet into the proposed improvement, but drains are construct-
ed and arrangements made to take those waters in another direction, so that I have
not included them in my assessment.
I have assessed the lands contiguous to the drain and outlet for benefit, and the
lands and roads naturally draining into the same for outlet, and have Showa the
amounts for each in separate columna of my aesesement.
In my eetimete of the cost of the work, I have provided for the clearing. of the
timber and bush from the toad allowance along the Government Drain, and for the
grubbing of the road -bed and grading the excavated earth thereon. The amount
estimated for this work I have aeseeaed against the road allowance between the 17th
and 18th conceeeions of your Township.
In laying out the work I have endeavored as far as practicable to straighten the
course of the Beauchamp creek or outlet. The amount of fall in the proposed work
being small, the effect of straightening and shortening the course of the proposed
work ie very important ; on lot No. 6 in the 13th concession a short oat ie made that
very materially benefits the proposed work, and is of such a nature that oompen•
sation should be paid to the owner of said lot. I have placed in my estimates an
amount to be paid the owner of said lot for the land taken by said short cut.
I have shown the proposed work on the profiles in different sections, each section
having the same bottom width of drain. .
My estimate of the cost of the work ie as follows
