Of the Township of Girey, in the County of Huron,
13 pt (t')
A 13y -law to provide a proper outlet for and otherwise for the inn- spa (cb
6t ((
provement and extension of Government Drain Number 2, in w
the said Township and for borrowing on the credit of the ikfan• E
icipality the sum of Sixteen Thousand Two Hundred and Ten s
Dollars and Thirty-three cents ($18,210.88) for completing
the ean'to.
Provisionally adopted this Twenty-fourth Day of Feb,, A. D. 1894.
%aereae the Drain known as Number 2, Government Drain, in the said Town-
ship, oonstruoted under the provieiona of the Ontario Drainage Aot of 1878, and
payable by local assessment has heretofore bean and is now being need as an outlet
fora number of other drains in the Township of Grey, and in the adjoining. Muniot•
polity of the Township of Elma, constructed under the provisions of the various Sta•
tutee in force reepeoting Drainage, and when the obanges and improved outlet here-
inafter provided for are made, will be used by a large number of other lands in the
Baia Townships and in the Township of MoRillop for outlet, and it having been sat-
isfactorily established that the said Government Drain No. 2 has an insufficient cant -
let, by reason whereof it is unable to parry away the waters which now reach it,
thereby exposing the adjacent !nude to damage and making it impossible to properly
and efficiently maintain the said drain, it was thereupon determined by the Munioi-
pal Council of the said Township of Gray, pursuant to flection 585, of "The Munici-
pal Aot," 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 efiaoiency
and to prevent the said threatened damage to the said adjacent laude.
And whereas, thereupon, the said Council prooured an examination to be made
of the looality embraced in the said drainage system, inoluding the said Government
Drain Number 2, by James A. Bell, a Provinoial Land Surveyor and Civil Engineer,
and oleo prooured plans and eatimates of the work to bo made by him, and also an
Assessment to be made by him of the lands and roads to be benefitted by the said
work inoluding the lands of those who are using tba said Government Drain Number
2 for outlet but who did not contribute to its construction, and those who may after
the said ohanges are made, use the same for outlet, being the Assessment hereinafter
by this By.law, enacted to he assessed and levied upon the lots and parte 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:—
So. Tuouaa, JANoanr 10ra, 1894.
To the Reeve and Council of the Township of Grey
GiNrnsatnx.—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 61h, 1895, as the result of my examination. In my re.
port I stated as follows : "This Drain whioh has its head or commencement on Road
Allowance between tbe0l7tb and 18th concessions at about the line between lots 28
and 29, and was constructed from this point westerly along the road to the Beau-
champ Oreek.
It is evident when oonstruoted that it was only intended to drain the Tote adja.
cent t, it. This is shown by the fact that it was originally oonstruoted a small
drain, and also that only a small acreage was asseesed for its construction. I find
now, that through a system of drains constructed under the Ditches and Water-
courses Act, and the Municipal Drainage Aot, 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 Elms.
"The result is, that the drain is entirely inadequate to parry 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 as the Beauchamp
Creek, from where the Government Drafn eaters 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 be necessary to improve this creek to
the line between the 12th and 13th concessions, whioh is almost to its intersection
with the Maitland River. This creek, as a whole, is in a very bad state to form a
proper outletifor the extent of aountry that drains into it. In places there."1s a well
defined channel requiring little improvement while in most of its course it will re-
quire to be deepened, widened and straightened, and have all the fallen timber taken
out.
"Those lands that are now uaiug 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 oredited to the lots originally assessed for the drain pro
rata to their assessment."
My report was read and considered byour Council
and
adopted,
and I a for twas in-
strnoted to make the necessary surveys, plans,p s P
e
largement of No. 2 Government Drain in order that it would be capable of parrying
off the waters. brought to it, without damaging adjacent lands and to carry the said
drain to a proper outlet, and to assess the cost 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 nsiug 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 oarrying 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 au 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 have also made an assessment against the
lands and roads that are using No. 2 Government Drafn as an outlet, for the value
of the drain from stake 295 (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 oolmmne of my assessment.
I find that there are some lots in the 18th concession of the Township of Elms. 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 direotion, so that I have
not inoluded them in my assessment.
I have assessed the lands contiguous to the drain and outlet for benefit, and the
lands end roads naturally draining into the same for outlet, and have shown the
amounts for each in separate columna of my assessment.
In my estimate of the coat of the work, I have provided for the clearing of the
timber and bush from the road 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 assessed against the road allowance between the 17th
and 18th concessions 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 is very important ; on lot No. 6 an the 13th concession a short oat is made that
very materially benefits the proposed work, and is of such a nature that compen-
sation should bepaidto 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 Bald short cub.
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 Dost of the work is as follows :--
