He went on to point out that the ne- cessity for providing sewage arose because of the great many apart- ments which had been created in certain districts. "But aren't there building by- laws in the town or planning by- laws, which provide for the manner in which these apartments might be erected?" asked the chairman. "No, the Mayor didn't want them," replied Mr. Sillery. "Now, now, we don't want any politics in this," the chairman said. Board that it' would aeezia to be primarily a matter for the Council. This could be done, the Board said, just as soon as the Council wants it. If one Council doesn't want to provide additional service which the people feel is required, then the answer is for the people to get another council: Reeve James Doig, of Tucker - smith, informed the board that ratepayers of Tuckersmith were perturbed because of the effect which might be created in Silver Greek if the disposal plant dis- charged into the river. The Board indicated that it had no authority to discuss the situation that might arise in Tuckersmith, and that the only reason that the hearing was being held in Seaforth was to con- clude whether or not Seaforth can afford the Jastallation, and to learn of objections which Seaforth rate- payers might have. It was not felt that Tuckersmith would have much to worry about, however, since the Department of Health had approv- ed the proposal, and for this rea- son, then, there should not be con- cern as to whether or not the car- rying out of the proposal would affect Tuckersmith revenue. Reeve Doig indicated that. .Tuc- ersmith's difficulty arose because of the relatively small run of.. wa- ter in the river in the summertime, and because it was felt this could result in the river simply becom- ing a reservoir for sewage plant disposal until such time : s .l ring and fall floods cleaned out the river. Since Tuckersmith wrs af- fected to this extent, he felt he said, that the Township should have been consulted. However, the chair- man indicated that such was not necessary, and advised Reeve Doig to have his municii:ality consult a municipal lawyer, or to discuss the matter with the Department of Municipal Affairs, if he felt that the township was in danger of be- ing o-ing harmed. People Should Decide Frank Sills, for many years Reeve of Seaforth, in speaking to the Board, indicated that there was no objection, in his opinion, to sewage either in whole or in part, so long as the proposal was ad- vanced in a 'manner which would be in the . interests of all the peo- ple. "People resent coercion as a substitute for co-operation," he said. This has , been rammed through. The petition which was presented was not as a result of the money involved, but rather was because the people who had signed the petition were of the opinion that the ratepayers as a whole should- be given an opportunity to decide whether or not they were in favor of a sewage system. There had been no explanation 'of the proposal at all. and it was not pos- sible for people to reach a proper conclusion. He was in doubt as to whether the proposal .to provide sewage arose because of selfish in- terests, or as a result of the de- sire to assist the entire town. He pointed out that the present ar- rangement of cess pools and dis- posal beds had worked satisfactor- ily for years, and that present dif- ficulties with regard to • disposal arose because of the greatly in- creased number of apartments which had been provided in cer- tain areas. Before these apart- ments were created, he said, ar- rangements should have been con- cluded for the proper disposal of the sewage from them. Reviewing previous evidence, Mr. Sills recalled that .the engineer had said that the system would combine both sewers and drains into one system. However, he went on, the Health Unit says that solids in drains are a hazard to health, and he wondered how these two state- ments would be reconciled, He ask- ed whether the present plan would take care of sewers and drains both. The engineer, Mr. Reid, an- swered that at the moment, drains would not be used in the present proposal. Difficulties in Clinton? Indicating that it was apparent the whole proposal had been pro- ceeded with in a haphazard way, Mr. Sills reminded the Board that it had been necessary to amend the application as the hearing opened. The Board Chairman explained that the amendment was of a minor na- ture an provided for the inclusion d of a lane which had inadvertently been omitted in the formal notice of the hearing. The Chairman went on to explain that while this re- ference had been omitted in this particular instance, it was contain- ed in draft applications, in cor- respondence, and also in the ap- proval which the Department of Health had given to the plan as a whole. The Board was not in a position to indicate the proportion )f cost which should be borne by those benefitting and those not benefit- ting in the initial stages, Mr. Sills was told. In the final analysis, every ratepayer in the town will benefit, the chairma.n said, and we can't be too critical of the proposal on those grounds. The Council, we feel, he said, did right in accept- ing the recommendation of the en- gineer. Mr. Sills referred to the difficul- ties which, he said, were being ex- perienced in Clinton and which were causing unrest among rate- payers in that. town. These condi- tions grew from the fa.et that many of the charges in connection with sewage appear to have been hid- den and now were resulting in increased costs. As he concluded, Mr. Sills asked the Board to carry back a message to the policymak- ers and the Cabinet to indicate that it was time small towns were given greater consideration in the matter of subsidies, The Board indicated that it was not possible for it to give consideration to policy mat- ters, but the chairman said that it was appreciated that real estate was carrying pretty well all the taxes it can stand. Higher costs of education, the chairman said, are raising taxes on real estate. Alvin, W. Riflery, Seaforth solici- tor, who next addressed the Board, Questions Operating Costs Mr. Sillery went on to -indicate that in his opinion consideration must be given to the cost of opera- tion of the sewer, and that under the existing arrangement, ratepay- ers on back streets throughout the municipality would be called on to pay the costs of operating a sys- tem which was to bent but a few people on the main streets. "Sewers are no longer a luxury in this enlightened age," the chair- man said; "they are a •necessity, and if in a particular section of the town, over -population has re- bulted in creating a condition which is hazardous to health, then some- thing must be done to correct the situation. A start must be made somewhere." This additional ac- commodation which has. been cre- ated in these areas has Made it possible for many additional peo- ple to live in Seaforth, and that in turn, has benefitted the whole town." In answer to a previous question, Mr. Reid informed the Board that', ir, his opinion, the additional amount required to be raised by general levy in order to carry out the annual operation of the pro- posed plant, would not exceed $2,000.00. Suggesting that a ratepayers meeting should have been called so that the entire matter could have been discussed in a more informal fashion, Mr. Sillery told the Board that his prime objection was that so many were being called on to pay for the benefits which would go to so few. The Council should have taken the property owners in- to its confidence and have discuss- ed the pros and cons. This isn't possible in a formal hearing, as was being held. Notices To Petitioners Miss Gladys Thompson asked the Board why all the ratepayers had not been informed by letter of the hearing. She was 'told that the hearing had been advertised twice in local papers, but to make cer- tain that those who hadexpressed a particular interest in, the matter, that is, those whose names ap- peared on the petition, the Board had directed that letters go for- ward to these people. Asking why the sewer route was to be parallel to Main St., and not along other streets where greater numbers of people lived, Miss Thompson was told that the deci- sion rested with Council on the recommendation of its engineer. Mr. Reid, the engineer, interpolated to indicate that he had been direct- ed by Council to give consideration to this particular area first since,. in Council's opinion ,this area was the worst from a sanitary stand- point. The Board of Health had informed Council to this effect, he said. No Consideration To Extensions Asking the Board again how long it could be anticipated it would be before the rest of the town could be served, the chairman replied by asking Mr. Reid, whether or not there had been any discussions about extensions, "Not with me," Mr, Reid replied. Mayor McMaster. who was pres- ent atthe hearing, informed the Board that it was the intention of Council to make extensions from time to time on the advice of the Huron -County Health Unit. He went on to point out that difficulty already existed insofar as disposal of sewage from Scott Memorial Hospital was concerned, and that perhaps an extension in that area would be necessary very shortly. Miss Thompson, in summing up, indicated that she felt that the town as a whole had a requirement for a sewage system, as well as for agarbage pick-up system,stem and felt that the town should be treated equally. The chairman indicated that while these things were desir- able, the matter of cost had to be taken into consideration, and sug- gested that perhaps had all these proposals been advanced at the same time, it would have been dif- ficult to obtain approval. Following an adjournment of five minutes. which was called when it appeared there were no further objections on the part of those present, the Board handed down its ruling. In its opinion, the objec- tions centered about the fact that the proposal of the moment did not cover a sufficiently large area. But, it pointed out, it must be appreci- ated that a start e�m?nust be made at some point, and vftr the advice of its engineer. the town had consid- ered that the proposal as advanced was the most satisfactory. The chairman reviewed the debenture structure and indicated that as a result of many of the debentures being either self-supporting, such as waterworks and hydro, or being charges against other organiza- tions, such as Seaforth District High School, the picture was not as serious as it appeared to be at first glance. "Seaforth can afford this work and could, at the same time, go ahead with possibly some extensions," he concluded. Raising a doubt as to whether or not $95,000 would be sufficient to complete the proposed work, the Board was told by Mr. Reid that already firm bids in this amount had been received. In concluding, the chairma.n indicated that the Board thinks Seaforth is on the right track, and that its financial set-up is such that 11 is in a good enough financial situation to carry on the Work, as well as perhaps, with some extensions.
