Clinton News-Record, 1961-11-30, Page 11Nornlnees State Platforrns At Public Meeting (continuedfrom page five) councillor Geor e I umball reported on $1,400 spent black - topping sidewalk's, and 127 trees cut dawn, plus purchase of a different grader. "If we spend more money of roads, .then taxes must be raised. There is very little money available oto the town. if 1 weren't paying taxes, then I'd believe they should be higher," J. Douglas Thorndike noted that when he was on council in 1960, a spokesman from Ottawa had definitely told them that Clinton would get a new post office, but on another site. He noted that salaries at the swim pool were not high enough, and that he'd like to see the new grader in St. John's ward a little oftener. Kenneth B, McRae, the town representative on CDCI Board, and chairman of the Advisee"' Vocational Committee, reported on 'progress being made with the new wing, (He was handi- capped at the start with noise of council candidates who had moved into the eo¢nrnittee room to smoke, laugh and talc, and by the distribution of the 'town financial statement which was done after he started to speak.) Mr, McRae noted that •the new wing would eliminate ne- cessity for a further addition which could be seen coming within three years He noted that the course of study for the new section would not be avail- able until mid-January. He did not think that costs would be any higher than they would have been had the old style of education been continued, Mr. McRae pointed out .that within three years there would be at least 20 additional sec- ondary school teachers working in the town, "This new school should be a good talking point in attracting industry for Clin- ton," comented the speaker. A QUESTION PERIOD Clayton Dixon asked how many people were entitled to vote, and received the answer from Clerk John Livermore: 1,967. He asked how many names were on the petition concerning the post office. Mayor Miller referred to a copy and replied: 107 names. Mr. Dixon contended that it was generally recognized that 25 percent of the electorate was needed before a :petition carried weight, He felt that 107 was "too low, and probably the petition was out of order. "Were there any 'no' answers, Mxt, Miller?" he asked. Mayor Miller replied that there were some who refused to sign it. Chairman H. Kingswell asked if the petition had effectively stopped the post office. "Would we .have had a post office if this petition had not been tak- en?" Mr. Miller said he could, not answer that question. Gordon Grigg asked about getting land for industry. Coun- cillor Newcombe replied that the Municipal Board answer to that was that the council was not in the business of buying p'•operty. Mayor Miller said "I don't believe it would be our right to buy land to develop for housing." Reeve Mel :Crich noted that planning and zoning was need- ed. Chairman Kingswell agreed that the town could not be in the real estate business, but asked if council knew of land availalble. Both Mayor Miller and Reeve Crich answered that there was land available, Councillor Bridle said it was well within the legal rights of the town to acquire land and hold it. "But we• need money for "this." Mayor Miller commented that he believed "I'm the black sheep about this petition, but there were four or five people had thist The signatures were obtained in about a day. Why didn't Mr. Bridle put this to a vote when he was mayor?" Mr. Bridle replied that there was no alternative location at that time. When a site became available in November, he pre- sented it to council. Eric Switzer spoke briefly, commenting on the 40 years that Alex C.

"It's more than your life's worth some- times," he said, "to try to cross the street at the post office during rush periods, Crosswalks are needed. But if you get off the main streets, then you find narrow streets, and a problem will still exist, T. R, Thompson did not sp- eak. William E. Perdue reported on the sewerage problem and the fact that it would cost money to correct it. He noted that in 1946 it had been built for 3,000 people. Now there are 3,259, an increase of 45 percent. In addition waste water from industry is equal to an addit- ional 1,500 persons. Mr. Perdue also noted the problem of detergents. The foam must be hosed down ev- ery day, or foam builds up to 6-8 feet, and blows around Either a lagoon, or increased facilities of some sort must be considered, He felt that the manufacturers :must deal' with the detergent problem. H. E. Hartley reported brief- ly for the hydro section of the PUC, noting an increase in consumption from 811 mullion KWiH in 1960 to 9.6 million KWHH 'this year.
