Mr. Findlay said the school board regularly took a survey of pre-school' children to anticipate school needs. “We don't know how fast the area will develop or if it will." Mr. Vale: “You didn‘t obtain a report from the school boards on future school population or con- struction?" Trustees Present Report In the meantime. it would be a debt upon the community, noted Mr. Vale. He asked if there had been any survey to indicate the number of schools to be added. Development Unknown _ Mr. Vale referred to the trust- ees' filed report that village‘aut- onomy was partly due to co- operation with council “and ev- erything functioned nicely." Mr. Rowland interjected, “Ex- cept they didn't get enough money." 7 "Aislied afiout a municipal office. Mr. Findlay pointed out, “We all- ready have it." Mr. Vale suggested all capital expenditures had been donated by the police village and an in. corporated area would lose the benefit of King Township's sub- stantial assessment on large es- tate farms. Mr. Findlay said he hoped for some industrial assessment in the new al‘eé. lie suggested it would be more efficient to bring in the revised assessment in 1959 than a year later. Eh}: Findlay: “They're more like- ly to cgmp to us." Mr. Vale pointed out. under in- corporation "you withdraw from the borrowing power of the town- ship." 7 Vic/Ir. Findlay: “We don’t know of anything needed t9 poryoxyg’ Mr. Vale said "It is not a naive assumption of the Police Village that reassessment will produce in- creased assessment?" . “They are already aware of that." Triple Assessment _ Mr. Vale pointed out the vil- lage‘s present assessment could be tripled to $1,600,000 under the reassessment program, which would increase the community‘s borrowing power. Mr. Fifidiay agreed that was so, “if you have to consider the bor- rowing power.” Mrlvv‘ ale questioned. “How can you administer better the existing Police Village iffiincorjporateQ?" “ ME Findla’y: “There is nothing more to administer. We are thinking of a ‘larger urban area" Mr. Vale: "The whole crux is the future rather than present?" ~ Mr. Findlay: “No.” Mr. Vale: “Don’t you think it is handing subdividers benefits on a platter?" Mr. Findlay: “What benefits?" Incorporation Policy Asked by Mr. Lucas about the policy of incorporation. Mr. Findâ€" lay said a lot of people had con- tributed to.that\ and the township had asked the village to incorp- orate. He said there had been no letter or resolution. , Upon the insistent questioning of Mr. Lucas to name one in authority who had asked the vil- lage‘ Mr. Findlay said Mr. Bruce Davis. chairman of the Planning Board had “asked when and a date." The township's official plan indicated it and ,over a per- iod of years in casual conversaâ€" tion Township had asked when incorporation would take place, “but not in the last 12 months," said Mr. Findlay. He referred to a joint study group by King City organizations considering a larger area. “More recently the bridge caused it to drop back." Area 0! Influence . . ° Mi-fLucas: “What is the rea- son this particular area is sought?" Mr. Findlay: “This is zoned as somewhat an area of influence.” Asked abqut the system of zon- ing. Mr. Findla ' said the trustees had requested it. then worked closely with peeple outside the village who were in accordance with the trustees' vieWS. " Mr. ilurcarsrpressed for the “ba- sic” reason for this area being chosen. Mr. Findlay said “We felt we should go out to take in the zoned area" He agreed about ex- tending it to the next sideroad north. “except for the bridge.” Regarding outside subdivisions, Mr. Findlay said they were refer- red to the village trusteesmnly for water consideration. while trustees were fully consulted about subdivisions within the vil- lage. Answering Mr. Lucas. Mr. ,Findlay said he had substantially prepared the trustees‘ report to O.M.B. er. Lucas said. "Isn't it your own fault you're not getting fines?" Mr. Findlay said he had under- stood the village couldn't em- ploy a policeman. Mr. Lucas said the Police Act authorized a vil- lage to employ a policeman. "Then you could collect fines or make an agreement with Coun- cil." ~ Unconvinced an incorporated village Would save on policing. crossing guard and existing ex-. penses, Mr. Lucas conceded. “A1- right. you might save $60 on sheep and dog_clqims.’_’ Mr. Lucas asked if the trustees had discussed with the school boards the changing of school sec- tions. Mr. Findlay replied SS. 22 Board said it would make them verv haony. "We here not nfiir- ially ever gone to SS. 2 Board but they know it's in the air." Take Over Services Asked about lot impost money. Mr. Findlay said the trustees had never proposed the new structure to township council. "The gross an aunt might be increased. but services might be included." He indicaied services might be taken over and provided with subdi- virlers‘ money. ' Mr. Lucas: "How would you get {the money? When building per- lmits are. issued?" Iliirifiddiéi: "Presumably." Mr. Lucas: “For waterworks, how would you get an assurance from a subdivider for money?" Mr. Findlay: “Because he is a business man and knows we have not the money." Asked about the present well, Mr. Findlay reported it could pro- duce up to 200 gallons a minute and was rated at a little over 100 gallons a minute. Regarding wa- ter ratio. Mr. Findlay said engin- eers recommend, with the safety factor, 100 gallons per person per wfi‘r.u-I:;é§s}m“\'ou might get a 10cal plpmbgr,s§ay, t_o f: leak?" J 1.1. day “J. . Mr. Findlay said roadwork and snow plowing might be by tender. but a local man might undertake local maintenance. Mr. Rowland, who‘d had his desk moved forward a few inches so he could scape the dripping roof, commented, “Why don't you have him?” Sewage Necessity Mr. Lucas and Mr. Findlay dis- cussed limitations placed by Cen- tral Mortgage and Housing Cor- poration on subdividers, required to provide piped sewage. except in the sale of individual lots. The O.M.B. nembers were in- terested in the C.M.H.C. policy and Mr. Findlay noted the ruling applied across Canada. Mr. Lucas said. “Isn't it reas- onably possible some municipal- ity is going to be called on for more water or sanitary sewage?” Mr. Findlay: “We can’t dc Subdividers would havg to _do Subdividers would have to do it.” Mr. Rowland said, “Surely that would be at some cost to present ratepayers? Mr. Findlay: “They are not ask- ing for it. It would have to be developers." He Went on to ex- plain. it was h0ped if subdividers installed a sewage system. an ex- tra reserve capacity could be re- tained for when the village wants to connect locals. C‘haimionvvafienwood asked: "How are you going to provide sewage at the request of one sub- divider?" _ Mr. Findlay: "We can't and they know it. It could only be done by development big enough to pay over a period of time. The little fellow couldn‘t do‘ it." mifrififeeniudod queried. "Are there no engineering studies where it would go and ‘how costs would be divided?" Mr. Findlay said he had seen a rough estimate by subdividers a year ago, the estimate based on no cost to present ratepayers. Dormitory Village Mr. Findlay informed Mn. Lu- cas the Police Village was mostly medium to large residences. $15.- 500 to $17,000 homes. He agreed the village is a “dormitory mun- icipality. like most of them", with a proportionate number of rate- payers employed outside the municipality. and that it called for carefully planned administra- tion. Mr. Lucas asked if new schools would be provided out of contri- butions from subdividers from impost money. Mr. Findlay said. “In part. and from Department grants and perhaps debentures.” Mr. Lucas suggested popula- tion and school needs would not increase if sewage and further de- velopment were held up. Wz‘fifilggiarbly inot," reblied Mr‘ Findlav. Mr. Lucas questioned the water supply if all the subdividable land is developed. Mr. Findlay said no report on water possibilities had been prepared especially for the hearing. Mr. Lucas wanted to know about hospital deficits. Mr. Find- lay said. “Timing is such they should not apply." '"A’t‘lh’i’sfiéifitlhe hearing ad- journed until Octobgr 28. OFFICE MACHINES DEALER â€" TU. 4-1745 -â€" 88 Baker Ave..
