Township of Whitchurch HOCKEY That‘s the way King Town- ship Councillor Gordon Rowe put it when he once again com- plained before council Novem- ber 17 about the “terrible water condition in Oak Ridges which is continuing to exist after six months." When your wife starts beef- ing about something you're really in trouble. Mr. Rowe told “The Liberal" that he‘s been “receiving doz- ens of complaints from unhappy householders and I’ve been pas- sing them on to the people in charge with little result. “Even my wife is beefing and] when that starts to happen you have got to do something about it", he added. Councillor Rowe, who lives on Elmira Avenue in Oak Ridges. said that some 500 homes are affected daily by the water which contains an abnormally high iron content. Wife Even" Beefing" To Councillor Rowe -â€" Oak Ridges Foul Water The problem started six months ago when the Ontario Water Resources Commission â€"- which is solely responsible for the water supply â€" com- menced using a new well locat- ed in Oak Ridges across from the post office on Yonge Street. “They put this new well into the system but they haven‘t been taking the iron out of it. Apparently the OWRC is in the process of letting out a contract for a new pumphouse to enlarge facilities which will mean that the iron will be removed then. But I didn’t think it would take this long.“ Councillor Rowe said the water ruined the laundry, stain- ed dishes and was “simply in terrible condition. Even if the taps are shut off and only drip they leave rust marks on the sinks. If you leave a glass of water overnight it's a horrible 65‘2‘1 100 44 YONGE ST. 5..

They have to take it to the Laundromat. They simply can't use the water.“ color in the morning." Clerk-Treasurer Harold Rose agreed. the situation was bad but said he had contacted the OWRC continuously but “they don't give any indication when it will be corrected.” Mr. Rowe agreed that “we‘re always rushing through corre- spondence to the OWRC but nothing ever seems to happen.” Mr. Rowe said the situation would be corrected and he told “The Liberal" he had been talking to an OWRC represent- ative personally. In other business the council worried over the continued 1a- mentable condition at the Mel- ody Acres Subdivision located on King Sideroad just south of Temperancevdlle. “Bu-t I don‘t’know when as of yet," he said. A homeowner in the subdivin sion appeared before council to; complain about “the disgusting shape the road is in. We get no services at all out there and‘ yet we have to pay taxes. Our homes out there are in the $30,000 price range and some- thing should be done." Councillor Rowe explain- ed that the road â€" such as it be â€" was considered an “unassumed” one until it could be brought up to provincial standards in or- der for it to be eligible for 50 percent government grants. ‘ He said the municipality had‘ signed an agreement with the original subdivider.
