Mr_. McDowell replied that Jamieson had said a three-man committee was looking into the need for an airport and would have to satisfy itself of that need. ‘ However. the matter of com- pensation. although frequently stressed by Mayor Robert For- han Of Newmarket and‘ Coun- cillor Gordon Rowe of Rich- mond Hill in their questions to officials. was mostly set. aside by chief spokesman. Gordon Mc- Dowell. general manager To- ronto Area Airports Project. as a matter that couldn‘t be settled until expropriation matters were dealt with. News of expropriation appears first in the Canada Gazette. Under the Federal Expropria- tions Act. Ottawa has 120 days after publication in the Gazette.

Mr. McDowell also told coun- cil than an independent inquiry board made up of repre- sentatives from the federal. provincial and municipal gav- ernments. would be set up if expropriation goes t h r o u g h.

Mayor Anthony Roman of Markham. said he thought the meeting was “dealing with a decision that's already been made." “But I would be less than truthful if I didn't say certain planning was going on". Mr. Mc- Dowell said. Region Gets Latest On Airport York Regional Council did its best at a special session September 7 with federal officials to discuss the proposed PickeringlAirport. but when it was all over, the main issue seemed to be just when the Canada Gazette was going to start publishing exprop- riation notices.‘ The meeting. which was open to the public. ostensibly was called to discuss compensation of residents within “noise lands". or “flight operational areas,” as the government spokesmen referred to them, as well as other matters relating to the airport. Councillor Rowe. who said he presumed the air- port to be a reality. told the meeting he had gone to Ste. Seholastique. Quebec at his own expense. where a similar situation existed at the new international air- port‘there. Quebec. how- ever. had been given 320 million in federal grants to assist municipalities ad- jacent to the airport. and he wondered if the same kind of assistance would 7 be given here. _ Mr. McDowell said Ste. Scholastique had been de- signated by Ottawa to qualify for Hie funds.

Mayor Forhan said that put- ting in the airport would mean a loss of development. The province had seen reason to limit population in the area. but at the same time was putting in an industrial region. Mr. Mc- Dowell had earlier said an in- dustrial region was planned He said about 6 to 7.000 acres were being used for the airport itself: many farms could be maintained. Mayor Forhan said the new airport would mean extra roads. Would the federal government pay for those? That. Mr. McDowell said. had not been worked out. Chairman Garfield Wright. who seemed to ac- cept the pmject as a "fait accompli" a term bandied about by both sides. coun- cil saving it was and ihe officials saying it ,wasn'tâ€" _ said it was important to know the impact of the air- port on the area. its indus- trial content. serviees re- quired and the compensa- “the other side of Highway '7" to serve as a buffer between the airport and North Pickering." Mr. Forhan said such a scheme would have an adverse effect on the area. “We seem to be paying through the nose". he said. "Who's picking up the costs?" Mr. McDowell said that. for the.I land outside the 18,000 acres to be acquired by the gov- ernment for the airport. the government would assume fin- ancial responsibility for claims where the land uses were in- compatible with airport opera- tions. "I dnn’t know how much it will cost to meet these obligaâ€" tions." he said. The induslrial parks “ould be located insidg-the 18.000 acres. Mayor Roman wanted to know when the federal gov- ernment had confirmed the site for the new airport. “I understand the expro- priation notices have al- ready been set out." he Mr. McDowell said not- lces of intention to expro- priate had been sent out» March 2. Mayor Forhan asked if there would be any cOmpensation for the loss of development. Was Mr. McDowell aware that the province was in competition with existing municipalities?

Mr. Wright then asked when the region could start expecting its influx of people. Mr. Mc- Dowell said. a “sophisticated study" underway to determine growth patterns, would be ready in two months. William Hodgson. MLA York He said computer techniques were being used to discern growth in the area. About 20,- 000 would be employed in in- dustry at the outset. rising to 40,000 by 1978 when the airport was expected to become op- erational. 210 Markham Road - Richmond Hill 884-7716 -«SS4-9001 Open 8-9 pm Limited Quantity Only â€" Financing Arranged JDX 8 Black 40 H.S.P.
