Rev. H. A. Walker gave the Prayer of Invocation. Reeve Roland F. Booth gave his Inaugural address as fc " w My fellow members of Stamford Township Council, Officials of the Township and all the people who live in Stamford and help make this great municipality in which we live. 1 As we enter into and begin this new year of 1940 and view all the strife, wars and political unrest throughout the world, we can certainly be very thankful that our good fortune happened to place us in so de- sirable a spot in the world. I want to congratulate the people of Stamford on their selection of the four members of the Council they chose to help me administer the affairs of Stamford this year. I am sorry we had to lose the services of Mr. Corfield who has served this municipality well in the past, although we have him replaced by Mr. Brant who knows the needs of the municipality and has had previous experience. We the Council, elected by a democratic vote to manage the af- faits of Stamford for the year 1940 and always remembering the Oath of Office just taken, must always keep in mind that as we are a part of this great Dominion of Canada and a part of the British aupire, so as we govern the municipality during the coming year will be our expression of how we as a part of this empire hope and wish to be governed in the future. Our greatest help to make a successful municipal year is to forget our differences that may have arisen during the past election. Vie should start this municipal year to -day "With malice toward none, with charity for all." Unless we can serve those who do not agree with us equally as well as those who do, then we cannot make a success of governing any part of this Empire. We are starting this year in this municipality in the best financial position'I believe it has ever enjoyed. Our object should be to keep this position existing, particularly when we know that the people of this country will be asked in the next few years. to carry a tremendous war debt burden along with other forms of taxation. We must do everyting in our power during the coming year to assist holdour povernement at'Ottawa:in the prosecution of=war against all'we dear and sacred. There are several lines of work I would like to see carried out this year, such as levelling the east side of Montrose Road from Green's Corners to Woodbine Avenue, and building a gravel walk. This pork would remove a very dangerous condition that exists of many children from the Woodbine Avenue area travelling to school on se heavily d moneyeberspenteonrimprovingothe addition to t Lundy'a Lane cemetery as conditions will warrant. I would suggest that every effort should be made by this Council to get the co- operation of the provincial Highway Department to see that unsightly daerous large holes should not be :dug along he right,, -ot way, Qpeenei lizabg.th =Highway. on' t) We still have with us the serious problem of unemployment caused by several present -day conditions, - short seasonal employment, men who are unfit for industry, and men who are past the age when industry will not absorb them and they have not yet:reached the old age pension benefits. We must have a sane, sound polioy and administration that will show no political favoritism, nor partiality, imspections made in a courteous and humane manner, inspectors, reports based on actual conditions, as they find them in the homes; administration of relief in a kinly courteous manner, always having in mind the welfare of the people in this community and the interests of the taxpayers. It does not matter how many rules and regulations are ladi down governing the assuring of relief, there will shays be an element of unfairness and hardship in connection with-those same rules. In fact, the more regulations that are in_effect, the more discrepancies will be effected. What we want to see in this municipalityis that those men, women and children who have no menas of providing for themselves will be fed, clothed and housed insome kind of shelter that will keep them healthy. We have no use or place nor time for anyone who would use relief for any other purpose. I would not be doing my duty if I did not refer now to a report which was presented to this Council last November 7th, and which has been turned down by this Council, a report based not on facts and a report not presented with any attempt at co- operation between two governing bodies. It is my firm belief that without more charity for the opinions and acts of one another in governmental matters, I be- lieve it will be difficult, if not impossible, to hold together that form of governmental democracy we have in Canada to -day. There is one thing more than any Other that can destroy our present form of govern- ment and that is by elected representatives shirking their duty and placing their responsibility on appointed officials, as appointed officials, however good they may be, and I must say there are many well trained, fine municipal officials in the province to -day. There does seem to be a great tendency for provincial officials in their various departments to take unto themselves dictatorial powers which eventually will not be good`for this country and will be a great factor in taking away the present form of electing a council of the people and if there is to be a• continuance of good clean municipal government then there must be co- operation between municipal and d- Provincial governments and not any attempt by appointed official$ to :destroy any -:form of elected government. In oonclusion I want to thank the officials of the Township in the past and ask their:pame loyal support again this year.. 1.

Allan Deputy Reeve J. C. Morden Councillor Ben Prior Jr. Councillor Donald Glantz Councillor All members took oath of office. Rev. P. Mayes gave the Prayer of Invocation. Reeve Thos. W. Brant gave his Inaugural address as follows: In assuming this important office for the first time I want to take this opportunity of congratulating the council on their success at the polls during the recent election, I especially want to con- gratulate the other two members, who, with myself, took such a firm stand in insisting that the surplus held by the Public Utilities, be handed over to the council for the purpose of paying the waterworks debentures, and who were returned to council by large majorities signifying that the ratepayers of the. Township of Stamford backed us up in the stand we had taken. I want to congratulate Mr. Prior on his election and welcome him to this council, as I know Mr. Prior's judgment will be quite a help to this council during our discussions that take place from time to time, as I have known him many years and know his ability. The year the British called upon to make sacrifice financially from time to time, so it will be the polic of council to economize in every way possible, so that too big taiburden will not be placed on the taxpayer, but at the same time we shall be in a position financially, to meet any emergency that may arise in the township, and should the call come, I can assure you that Stamford will be found ready to do their share in the fight for the British Zapire and democraoy. This years council to start the year, is burdened with a judgment And posts of'around $20,000 from an ill advised action that a previous council had taken with the county, in this conneotion I may state that although we have had judgment against us to the extent of $14,266,89 and posts which will amount to around $20,000. Many people do not know that the case a000rding to the judgment still has to go before the county Judge, who is to find and ascertain what further monies the county is entitled to for the years 1936 to 1938 to- gether with interest, and as I and pertain members of this council namely Deputy Reeve Allan and Councillor Donald Glintz made it clear during the election that we were opposed to any more court action in - regard•to the County versus Stamford case if we could possibly avoid it, but would meet a committee of county counoil to settle our dif- ference, instead of again going before the courts, and I am happy to say that a committee of the County Council has been apointed meet this council to thresh the matter out and I feel confidentothat within a week or two everything will be settled, and that once again the most cordial relations will exist between the Township of Stamford end.the County of Welland. During my term of office it will be my aim to eatabiieh and con- flaws thereafter the most friendly spirit of Co- operation and mutual assistance between our Township, and our neighbors, the City of Niagara Fa11a, tbe,,adjodng mu00440.40.e8 sawellas 'the - County-. of With a growing population due to industrial expansion in this locality we fully expect a shortage of houses, and it will be my policy to enoourage building by every means possible and prospective builders are invited to look over our Township lots and to oonsider the many ad- vantages the Township offers in the way of light taxation, excellent location, and many township services. In conclusion may I invite from the voter a close interest in the manner in which we administer our trust. I assure you we will welcome constructive criticism and assistance in our task. I thank you.

I would like to remin?you, also, that you are called upon to ad- minister the affairs of no mean or insignificant municipality. The pop - lulation of Stamford Township is now the greatest in its history -- over J10,000 people, a greater population than that of the City of Niagara Falls in 1904 at its inception. We are also, I believe, entering upon what may become the most mo- mentous year in the history of the world -- and no doubt the attitude of many municipalities will have a bearing upon the ultimate post war de- velopments. A few years at the beginning ofo the edepressionythatvtheldepressionlwouldnnotaend pltform H;until there was a great economic change, and that any system was wrong .'in which a man was denied the privilege of earning a living for himself 'and his family since Providence has provided sufficient food, clothing, and comforts for all mankind. I have had no reasons to change my mind. 'True -- we have a temporary respite at the present time, owing to the second World war but what will happen upon the cessation of hostilities when our soldiers, sailors4and airmen return and the war industries close {their doors? I 1byJ The following suggestions or recommendations may well be considered f this Council: ttees - I would suggest that we dispense with general Council as a whole is not a large committee. I've watched committees as of annual committees for several years and I find that committees are ignored and all the work is directed as in tshould be, by ,, the Council. Questions appertaining to these committees were not referred! to the committees, therefore there is no good reason for their existence. We of course must'have a Chairman of Finance to affix his O.K. on l each bill to be paid and possibly a chairman of roads but in the latter case the Engineer and Road Superintendent could act under the direct instructions of -the Council. I would like to appeal to you to extend a sympathetic toward a class of pelple who are etti i consideration ways refer to the getting a raw deal in several wngs,.

M P09049 , asst, 1942,• Reeve 11 tt Municipal Utilities ry There are a n u m er o P services which it is right and proper for a Municipality to assume if authorized by the ratepayers such as water wo sewers, transportation, electric light and pwoer, gas service, and hous schemes, but the principle should be firmly established that the entire of these services should be levied against and paid for by the users. ' have not always adhered to this principle. Housing Commission We would be well advised to stay aloof from any more housing schen;' Houses principally for two 'reasons (1) They are in direct competition with ou privately owned property. (2) Our experience with the Housing Commissi houses has cost the Township property owners several thousand dollars, taxes written off, losses on houses sold etc. Township Again we are not playing fair with the property owners in selling Lots Township lots for about 20% of prevailing prices. As a result owners o lots have been unable to make sales and their lots are on the way to fu tax sales. Lobar Improver" meats War -time Housing War Munition Plante - Hydro Taxes; In the year just closed (1942) there were 50 purchasers of Townshi lots. Sixty -seven lots in all were sold for $3,622. The tax obligatio outstanding against these lots totalled approximately $8,600.00 a loss $5,000 which must be borne by the property owners, some of whom are own of vacant lots. Prospective buyers should be encouraged to purchase lots where loc. improvements are already installed. In reference to assessments I feel here too there is ample room fo improvement in our present. system. Properties should be assessed not u; on their cost but upon their earning power. A $4,000. house that is easily rentable at $40.00 per month should be assessed for more than a $4,000 house that commands a rental of $20.00 per month. At the present time a house assessed for 42,000.00 where the rent frozen at $20.00 per month pays the same taxes as another house assesse for $2,000 on which the rent is frozen at $40.00 per month. This is manifestly unfair to some property holders. The Wartime Houses may become a menace to the interests of the To if all the clauses of the agreement are not strictly adhered to. Here we scarcely know just where we stand. We were told that these agreemen are valid upon the approver of the Ontario Municipal Board but memberso the Board have informed us that they have not yet had enabling legislati to validate suoh agreements. Premier Conant has declared that the Gove ment would do nothing to validate these agreements and that the less the Province has to do with this matter the better for the Province in years to come. Consequently we don't know where we stand. We have collected taxes as yet. In the Wartime Housing area 238 houses are now occupied and only 12 1100. Vacant.. The population of :the Wartime settlement is approximately 1000 Should we agitate, possibly in ponjunotion with other municipaliti against the exemption of war munition plants, especially where the net profits are not refunded to-the- Government. These plants should also h to raise the money necessary to run.the business of.the.community. The loss of taxes on the- Welland - Chemical_ area ie carried by tb,e- property 0 of the Township. :Another problem is that perennial question - -- Hydro taxes. Last year, 1942, we received $75;000 from the H.' E. P. C. in lieu° axes on all their holdings. The oity received t.7B4O00= andloeal impror entsl,,evies in, addition to'the.- grant. t - -We always welcome any generous treatment by the Hydro V° the City a he Township should have no trouble -in receiving the same consideration he:Hydro. holdings in the Township are so far in,�exoesa-ot thoae':`in the • It must be borne in mind that the To n2tip in 19E4 received ;;44600 school taxes and x'10100 in general taxes, a total of $'54700 in taxes from the three power companies since acquired by the Hydro -- viz: The Ontario Power Co., the Electrical Development Co. and t-:e Toronto Power Power Co. In addition to these companies the Hydro has extensive holdings in the Township and it seems inconceivable in spite of the H.E.P. Act that we should accept only $75000 in lieu of all taxes. The Hydro should pay . full taxes on all plants acquired by and not created by the H.E.P.C. st stakes This year we should take care to avoid the mistakes of the past such &s allowing Township employees to lay off from their work on election day to engage in election campaigning. This form of election corruption will not be countenanced by the 1943 Council. of hiries In recent years licenses have been granted to operators of slot machines. I believe this was a mistake. True enougkt, it means some re- venue to the Township treasury but if this extra revenue is recuired non gamblers should be under obligation to pay their share. ecial uests Heretofore requests have been received promiseuously, We are not elected to see how much public money we can use to humour our friends. Experience has shown that it is much better if all requests by the rate- payers for stone, ditching, street lights, culverts, waterline extensions etc., were received through the clerk's office either in the form of a written communication or petition to be considered by the Council as a whole at the next meeting. ets At the present time some employees are paid weekly and others semi- monthly. This policy is not satisfactory as it entails considerable extra work and some loss of time. I would therefore respectfully recommend that all pay sheets be prepared semi- monthly except those already on the monthly basis. This should cause no hardship to any of the employees. ms I We shall endeavour to live upon friendly terms and promote good will With all neightbouring municipalities and endeavour to preserve peace with n our borders. All differences or mismnderstandings between the council and other unicipal bodies may logically be settled by means of conferences between he bodies concerned and thus promote peace, harmony and good will. We hope to serve our Township with unselfish devotion and exert our energies towards making this a better place in which to live. 1. lectors 1 2. real• 3.

Inaugural address as follows: the 1944 Council: I wish to congratulate you upon your election,with it means re- sponsibility. It will be an important year, not only in the history of our Township but may be a most momentous year in the World's history. I would like to remind you that you are serving no insignificant Municipality. The Township of Stamford is today in population the 9th Township in Old Ontario. Our population according to the latest assessed population is about 11000 to be exact 10921. In assessment our Township stands 6th in the Province with an assessment of over 8 million. In the matter of tax exemptions or non taxable assessments the Township of Stamford leads in the Province. Regarding cost of secondary education (H.S. and C.I.) Stamford is the 5th township in Ontario, being surpassed only by 4 suburban Town- ships around Toronto. You may verify these statements by consulting available statistical reports. Several subjects might very profitably occupy the studied attention and consideration of this year's council. For several years there was a Reeve's office in the Township Hall. This situation does not exist at the present time. Indeed the reeve has access to no phone in the hall when the offioes are closed at noon, evenings and holidays and if he wishes to do any phoning he is obliged to leave the hall to seek some outside phone. This matter should be remedied by this year's council. We have on the whole a splendid staff of Township offioials whose faithful service commands the respect and whole hearted co- operation of this Counoil but in case of laxity in the performance of duty on the part-of any Township official the Council would soarcely be justified in.overlooking the faot. This year's council may be called upon to take a firm stand es against the slot maohine menace. With the Co- operation of the Attorney - peneral-'s- department, Township officials and the general public I feel 4bdt our- efforts this year will be crowned with success. It should be. •ptt: easy matter to eradicate the•slot maohine as Township holders of restaurant and poolroom licenses sign agreements that they will not allow a slot• maohine; pinball or other coin- taohine in or on their Iq esldeee k000rding-'te by -law No. 865 - 1943. One olause of the by -law .provildeii hat any person- oonvioted of a breaoh'of any of the .pro- Visione a this.; by- layrshall forfeit - -and pay the sum- of;$50.00 for the :first ott pas. In our last - inaugural address we strongly recommended that all 1e1AQs and propertieP be assessed whether-subjsot ; to tazatioa or not. Glintz• "That the report of the Finanoe Committee LAMY A000un es presented be accepted and the •aoeouate betpaid amo to 803.81." Carried, =Nappy New Years. Carried., eating ad Jo rned ,Sour : - ;5 p.m. Clcmi As a consequence we instructed the assessor to assess the holdings all public utilities and war plants. Landa may be held by the cro but an industry thereon may in some instances be assessable for to ation. The Welland Chemical was. assessed. As a result of this po we will probably receive taxes.or a grant for Municipal services r ered to the Company. As far as our Financial standing is concerned, the Township,, never in a happier position. Our tax rate is very low and there a reoord collection of taxes lest'year, only 7% of ourrent taxes r main unpaid. We borrowed very little money and have now a good ca surplus. While all this is gratifying I feel that possibly we are not pursuing the right policy. There is a reaeonw,why our tax col- lections are good and our financial standing excellent. We have v, little relief costs now, very little interest to pay, our debentur obligations are deminishjng year by year We are prevented, thro lack of materials, from - spending money for the maintenance, recon- struction and construction of- roads-with the result that our roads are fast deteriorating. Our County rate is only one third of font years'. In 1942 we spent $35000 on roads but $135000 in 1928. In 1942 we spent $38000 on debenture interest but $76000 in 1930. In 1942 we spent $8000-on relief but $243000 in 1933. In 1942 the coy requisition was $29000 but $101000 in 1931. People find it easier to pay taxes now than they did a few years ago. Histbry may repee itself. We may again be called upon to pay greater relief costs, hospitalization and road oobtsaafdceounty rates, and that at a tim when it will be a greater struggle for the taxpayer to pay taxes. a result of these conditions and in the interest of our future wel we should adopt a policy of putting money aside for post -war work reconstruction, and other purposes. A reserve fund should be established to meet the cost of futt road programs that will be imperative when materials are available. Hydro Taxes This long oontentions question will not be settled until St . received adequate compensation for loss of taxation. There might been -some excuse for -the Hydro to evade taxation at its inception now it has aeounnnulated millions of dollars in reserve funds and o pay its way in the same- manner- as- private'power-plants on this side and on the American side of the river. I believe the 1943 Council erred in judgment in accepting an annual grant of $75000 for the -next four years without the additio $4800 local improvements. I have reason to believe there were pro peots of a:favourable consideration regarding our claim. Niagara Falls City received -- $75000 and looal improvement costs We -oleim and the-H.E.P.Q. surely can be convinced that we are enti to-At-least the-same consideration ae that accorded the City since H.E.P.C. holdings-in the Township-are- many - times - greater -then those the-City.

The same antiquated system of electing P.S. and 11. S. trustees that ' prevailed 60 years ago is still in vogue, notwithstanding we have up- to —date schools with some equipment and facilities not possessed by City the basis Education would may be considered an urban or suburban district. Under a Township Board of r, Education no teacher or other employee of the Board would be eligible to sit as members of the Council as they would then have a contract with a Municipal or Corporation Board. However, there is a strong movement in 4 the Province to have this barrier against teachers removed and the stat>+esj utes may be so amended in the near future. A resolution embodying this principle should be forwarded to the Ontario Municipal Association for their endorsation. There should be action by this Council and concerted action on the part of all Municipalities to take steps toward relieving the Municipal taxpayer of costs that properly and logically should be borne by the ProvincsA`'or Federal Governments such as hospitalization, health services, and post war unemployment relief. These costs should not be saddled up- on the property owners as has been the case in the past. Unless there is some change a serious situation may develop against the Municipal taxpayer in post war years. There has been much discussion to avert such a crisis but no concrete action has as yet been formulated. A resolution emphasizing this principle should be endorsed by us and pre- sented for endorsation to the O.M.A. A similar resolution, sponsored by your reeve at the last session of'the County Council, was unanimously passed. It read "that whereas the cost of Municipal government is borne almost entirely by property owners and real estate we-hereby memorialize the governments to assume a major portion of the cost of education, hospitalization, and post war rehabilitation in order to relieve the over burdened property owning taxpayers." Our Schedule of prices of graves, lots eta should be revised. Our present low prices were established when relief workers were employed at the Cemetery. Present prices are below those of neighboring cemeteries To provide for the future up -keep of the cemetery reserve fundsshould be established for that purpose. Two houses were sold during the year and several paid balances due. There are now 19 houses under the Commission. Negotiations are in progress between the Welland Chemical Co. and the Publio Utilities Commission in connection with the operating coats and capital cost of the Booster pump. Through the careful management of the Public Utilities Commission they announoe a boon to water takers who are from this date to receive ce80 nt e . proent.diseount on their water bills instead of the customary 10 per? In closing this lengthy sketch I wish to express to you my best wishes-fora happy -and prosperous year.. 1'. B.. Prior Corfield That a vote of thanks be extended to Rev.

Reeve Communi- oations 1945 Statutory meeting of the Council held in the Council CLanb er, on 1-- 1 Monday, January 8th, 1945, at 11 a.m. Ben R. Prior S.Corfield J.N.Allan G.W. Monroe R. Prior Reeve Deputy Reeve Councillor Councillor Councillor All members took Oath of Office. ! Rev. K. G. McMillan gave the Prayer of Invocation. Reeve Ben R. Prior gave the Inaugural address as follows: As Reeve of the Township of Stamford it affords me a great deal of I pleasure to congratulate the members of the 1945 Council on their election to this important democratic Municipal body. All members of last year's Council were re- elected and I believe this fact shows that the peop4e of Stamford have confidence in your ad- ministration of last year. At this time I would particularly give a warm welcome to our new Councillor, Mr. Gordon Monroe, who is highly ! regarded and familiarly known throughout the Township as "Pat" Monroe. I feel that in Mr. Monroe we have a real addition to our 1945 Council and I firmly believe that he will contribute greatly to all the ad- ministrative duties of t:1is Council, since he was born and raised in our Municipality and has acquired and inherited a keen knowledge of Municipal affairs. - - i In succeeding the latd Mr. J. C. Morden to the Reeveship of our important Township I apprdciate my responsibilities to the residents of our Municipality and it is my earnest desire and sincere hope that I can inculcate into the office of Reeve many of the virtues and high standards upheld so admirably by our late Reeve. It is believed that the year 1945 will be a most monentous year to be written in the history of the world and it is our sincere hope that this year will bring cessation of this terrible conflict that we are involved in at the present time. If hostilities should cease this year the 1945 Council must be prepared to meet the challenge that every Municipality will be faced with. It seems to me that the thought of re -- establishing all our men in Active Service when they return should be uppermost in our minds, and given careful consideration in all work of a Post War nature dealt with by the Council. At this time I would like to take the opportunity of thanking the officials and employees of the Municipality for their faithfulness, loyalty, and co- operation shown in the past in all matters of a :SI Municipal nature, and to ask for a continuance of this commendable co- operative spirit in the important feat that lies ahead of us. I know this Council can count on this important feature of Municipal ad- ■1 ministration and by working together in harmony I feel that we can 6 give-the public the beat possible Municipal Government. I would akto like to welcome to our Inaugural meeting the members of the Public Utilities Commission in the persons of MT. George Powell, and Mr. Keith MacLeod. It is my belief that this year s Council and the Utilities Commission will work in co- operation for the benefit of allYour residenta,. ,FINANCES Our finances, at the present time, are in excellent oonditioni During the year 1944 a reserve fund in the amount of $50,000.00 was. set up as a Post War Reserve Fund, to provide necessary replacements of,,, or 'improvements in, Public works suoh as roads eto. I believe that an additional $50,000.00 oould be transferred from our present current sawplus to this'fund, and 1 would reoommend that this step be taken. Insetting up reserves for Post War Works I feel that it is only a matter of prudent :and loggical finance. It is sound business praotioe tO have-Soney available for roet War'worke when materials and man power art available. 2 *:than reserve fand ie used for road 'Mork' and the 14au11; 50% grant is forthcoming from the Provincial Government it will mean that we have a total amount of $200,000.00 provided to improve.and re build Stamford roads, many Of which require a considerable amount of materials and labour to place them in first class condition. By the establishment of a reserve fund and careful planning Stamford Townshi will be ready to assist in taking care of the Post War Programme. TL recent announcement by the Provincial Government respecting General Legislative grants for school purposes is a step in the right directi and I trust this revised system of educational grants will mean a saving in regard to the cost of education to the people 62 our Townsh At this time I am unable to say just what the naw system for grants will mean to our Municipality but this matter is being studied at the present time and a report will be brought in to the Council later in the current month. In regard to the cost of other Municipal operatio there is every indication that the general and county rates will be i creased over last year for the following reasons: Reasons for County rate increases. Setting up of a Juvenile Court. Building programme of hospitals in the County, including an ad- dition to the Niagara Peninsula Sanatorium to which the County has promised a grant of $17,000.00. Increases in road costs such as snow removal, maintenance, etc. • Reasons why general Township rate is likely to increase. Providing money for the purchase of two new.heavier road trucks suitable for snow ploughing with wing attachments. • Increased cost of administration such as Police, Public Health, and other services. Providing office and staff for the Regional Post War Committee. Snow removal costs. Providing funds for the central heating plant at the Stamford Collegiate. s rs Programme for 1945 It is suggested that the following matters be given careful con- sideration by the Council: - (1) Provide adequate Police service. (2) Provide adequate Public Health services (3) Purchase of two new heavier road trucks suitable for snow plough with wing attachments., (4) Providing necessary fund for roads. (5) Providing office accommodations for the Reeve. I believe that t head of a Municipality with the population of Stamford should ha an office of his own.to properly administer the duties of his of (8) Consideration of the setting up of a new assessment system, with an office for full -time assessor. A report on this matter was a cepted by the 1944.: Council but the matter was left over until 19 Post:War Projects This years Council have the opportunity of- supporting .the :folio organizations in connection with,Post,WSr=Rehabilitation:- :The Regional Post War Planning Committee. This committee purpos setting up a local office and makttg n. survey and planning possi works programme that will be augmented by Government funds. St ford's contribution to this committee has been set at $3,250.00. Stamford Post War Services Committee. This oommittee is compose of representatives of all local organizations, and will have the ,co- operation of all the wives and parents of Stamford boys and g in the Armed Services. This committee should be ready at all ti to assist in welcoming home men and women from the.8ervice and t .,help as far as 'possible in their - rehabilitation to civilian life 'Providing for Stamford's own Post War Works programme to assist Abe employment problem that will follow the end ,f the war when induatry_is being converted from .wartime to peace time.require- : mepta;, I fiat here under, nverel suggaatione4n tb,ia, }respeot: p!' rman- Providing -funds to carry out an extensive road programme after the war. Replacement of street car lines by busses and providing bus service to the outlying districts of the Township. Stimulate the building of sewer and watermains in order that new building sub- divisions may be opened up. Providing a reserve fund for public works programme for such matters as parks, cemeteries, etc. Consideration of a recreational centre. I would recommend that this Council set up a reserve fund to establish a memorial recreation centre or centres, which would include ball parks, foot ball facilities, swimming pools, tennis courts, pinnic grounds, etc., which would be constructed as a lasting memorial to the Youth of our Township who gave their all that future generations in our Township may be free to live the way of life we desire. In conclusion, of this my first inaugural address as Reeve, I would like to wish the Municipal Council, the Public Utilities Commission, the 'various Public and High School Boards, the Housing Commission, Board of health, officials of the Township, and all other elected or appointed Boards and Commissions, and the residents of Stamford a very happy, pros- perous, and I hope a victorious New Year. 1.
