Mrs. Freda Munro, Se’c- retary-Treasurer of the ratepay- ers' Association, said: “If Oak Rid- ges section goes ahead and par- ticipates with King Township «on MUSSELMAN’S LAK‘E â€" Mr. and Mrs. R. Warriner of this community were injured in a car accident May 20 on Highway 48 one quarter of a mile south of Steele’s Avenue. Both were taken to Scarboro General Hospital and treated for head and face cuts. Mr. Warriner said the accident occurred when a tire blew out. One member of the audience Mr. Joe Gibbs, chairman of the ratepayers‘ association. asked: “If 66 oer cent of the present tax- es can’t be collected now, how can we afford a water system?” Present assessment for the two Townships is approximate- ly $1,300,000 and tax arrears stand at $48,000 or roughly 30 per cent of the tax levy. Those against taking part in the water system contended that the north side was too depressed financially to undertake a 30-year financial committment; that there was- no guarantee of suflicient post-water system industrial de- velopment assessment to ease the burden on local residents, that a water system must inevitably be followed by a sewer system, the cost of which, on top of that of the water system and school tax- es would make the taxpayers' sit- uation next to impossible. The nays contended too that the pres- ent water supply was quite fit for human consumption despite a York County Health Unit report to the contrary, and that a water system as proposed would neces- sitate hundreds of dollars extra outlay in related plumbing for each house. They felt that the present system of wells, septic tanks and weeping tile beds was sufficient for their needs. The annual charges. by the On- tario Water Resources Commis- sion (prepared to construct and finance the project) for 30 years would be made up of yearly sim- ple interest rate at 5% per cent ($23,966), a two per cent annual sinking fund ($8.336), replace- ments reserve ($3,522) and oper- ational costs ($6,500), for a total of $42,324 or a grand 30-year to- tal of $1,269,600. This on the as- sumption that there will be no great fluctuation in the interest rate over three decades. Heavy Financial Load i Typical cost annually to the connected property owner for a full Water area (with the tWO ToWnships participating) would be $65.98 and $68.21 in the event of an alternative. reduced water area. This total cost assumes that frontage will average 100 feet at 21 cents a foot and that individual proper- ty- assessment will average $1,* 500. The water rate'per annum is Set up at $30 for 40.000 allons of water with every add tional 1,000 gallons uSed to cost 75c. The additional gallonag‘e would be metered. The holise service connection is set at $8.06 and the Watex: area levy at $6.90. A full water' areé wofild mean a mill increase of 4.6 and a re~ duced water area a mill jump of about 6.1. Costs Estimated cost of the proposed King-Whltchurch wa- ter system is $416,800. This includes allowance for test drilling ($7,500), source Works taking in Wells, pumps and gasoline auxiliaries ($60,000), storage tanks and works ($47,800), distribution mains and fire hydrants'on both sides of Yonge Street ($254,000) and house service con- nections ($47,500.00). At the May 25 meeting in Lake Wilcox Public School, convened to get the opinion of Whitchurch TOWnship rate- payers residing on the north side of Wilcox Lake in the matter of the estimated costs and recommendations for a proposed joint municipal King-Whitchurch Township water system, the audience, by a show of hands in a non-binding vote, narrowly defeated the proposal. The vote was 25 for and 80 against with a half dozen persons abstaining, and climaxed a spirited two-hour meeting that featured a variety of opinions, a sometimes heated atmosphere, and humour. That the meeting Would be a lively one was clear- ly evident Well in adVance of Chairman Reeve George E. Richardson’s ope'ning remarks. Said Township Clerk John Crawford after the meeting: “It’s apparent that the entire matter requires much‘more study." L. Wilcox Opposes Water System By Narrow Vote Interest Divided Mr. Crawford, in response to another question, said that the matter of securing provincial or federal aid for the proposed pro- jéct might be_ investigated. Assisting the reeve and Mr. Jorgensen and Clerk Crawford were Whitchurch Councillors Frank Williams, Ivan McLaugh- lin and Ross Farquharson. At this point, a bowl went up. from some members of the aud- ience who wanted to know why the north side should be initially served when the south side’s need obviously was greater. Another ratepayer had to be assured that granted the system was put in, future subdividers would not be allowed to become “free-loaders" but would have to internally ser- vice their developments. Mr. Jorgensen explained that the purpose of the water system was to create a separate area within a township to supply a limited number of people initial- ly south of Wilcox Lake, about 200 consumers in all, allowing for future watermain extensions as circumstances permitted. If the Whitchurch area as a whole par~ ticipated, artificial township boun- daries between King and Whit~ church would be ignored in the matter of drilling the needed wells. Six and eight inch mains would carry the water along both sides of Yonge Street and there would be fire hydrants placed at SOD-foot intervals. Tenders would be called for the construction of the system. Eric Jorgensen, engineer of the firm of Crysler, Daivis, Jorgen- sen, Ltd., Willowdale, who pre- pared the report, had to do conâ€" siderable footwork to keep from becoming embroiled in side issues raised by irate citizens. These consisted of complaints that the council rarely co-operated. to a heated demand to know who said there was typhoid in any local well when in fact the only bad- water report emanated from King Township (claps, cheers), and demands to know whether a water system would reduce fire insur- ance. Reeve Richardson was hard put at times to keep order. At a cru- cial moment, Clerk Crawford put the council‘s ease clearly and simply. "We aren't trying to ram anything down anyone’s throat,” he said. “The feeling that this meeting might be rigged is wrong. Our hands are tied to the extent you want them tied. and loosened only when you loosen them. This decision is yours, no one else’s. We know the water system will be expensive, that your taxes are too high now. We knowthat a water system will in- sure better health and increase real estate and commercial value, but the question is‘ is the system enough of an advantage to war- rar_1_t_spending some $400,000?" This group felt: inclined to go along with the idea of progress generally, and were dubious ab- out' arguing against the health unit’s survey which said that 50 per ceht of the drinking water in the entire area was unfit for hu- man consumption. Key Question lts own, We’re going to want it later. We should tackle the prob- lem now. Jolnt effort now will definitely be like putting money in the bank." 0 Will!
