Minutes19501 Statutory meeting of the Council held in the Council Chamber on Tuesday, January 3rd, 1950, at 11 p.m. sent G. W. Monroe Reeve E. W. Armstrong Deputy Reeve J. N. Allan Councillor A. G. Fridge Councillor Wm. R. Sootheran Councillor Members of the Board of Education and Public Utilities Commission were also present at this meeting. All members of the Council and the member of the Public Utilities Com- mission took the Oath of Office before Clerk A. C. Huggins. The Reverend Doctor E. M. Morrow gave the Invocation for the 1950 Council. Reeve Gordon W. Monroe gave the inaugural address as follows: At this time it falls on the Reeve to give his Lnaugural ad- dress. This year I have decided that I would try and cut it a little shorter than usual. I have no address irepared and will speak on a few notes. I would like to congratulate Deputy Reeve Arnstrong and Council- lors Bridge, Allan and Sootheran on their election and also like to give congratulations to Mr. Powell on his elective' to the Public Utilities Commission and the four members who were recently elected by acclamation to the Board of Education. On the Council in 1950 I know that we are going to miss Bob Prior. Bob has been with us quite a number of years and although, as they say, we did not always agree Bob had his principals and he did not back down from anyone. I feel that Bob was a good Councillor, who will be missed very much. I think that we should pass on our congratulations to the newly elected Council in the City of Niagara Falls. The three aldermen elected this year are all old timers as far as Municipal Council is concerned and their re- election speaks well for the Council of Niagara Falls. I would also like to congratulate the Reeve and Members of Chippawa Council on their acclamation for 1950. I think the Council should consider the good of Stamford at all possible times and I feel that any business done should be done in a business like way and I feel if the Council work together we can do a good job. We have in Stamford a staff of Municipal Officials second to none. I think that with their help we can do a good job. I might touch on finances at this point for a moment and I see no reason why unr mill rate for 1950 cannot be exactly the same as last years. I see no need for any increase and in this connection I would sug- gest to this year's council that the question of local improvements should be handled very carefully and special attention he given to expenditures or debentures for Local Improvements in outlying areas and any new subdivisions opened up should be relatively close to the existing area and services. On assessments I would say that they increased some half a mil- lion dollars in 1949 and I would look for a substantial increase during 1950. In the next two or three years we might have some change in the assessment system as we now have a county assessor, whose job it will be to bring together all the assessors in the County to collaborate their work and bring it together. I have no doubt but what our assessment as it is will be well in line with the set up because I think that the present assessor and his predecessor have done' a good job in Stamford and I think there have been very few complaints j regarding assessments being too high. Here in the Township Hall as we grow we need more additional office space and that is something we will have to face. I doubt that it will be a large expenditure but both upstairs and down more space is needed. New Health offices have 0 been opened in the basement and I feel that fine work will be carri an from here. On housing in the Municipality I would say that we have had mar. ;homes constructed in the last two or three years. No private money has been invested in housing accommodation for rental purposes but Township Council have for the past two years seen fit to have Centra Mortgage and Housing Corporation build some 20 homes each year on a rental proposition. They have cost the Township around $200.00 each for services but I do not think that is too deep an indebtedness for we will get full taxes on these houses. Just how much work of this nature will be carried out in the coming year is undetermined at the .present time. I would like to state that the Stamford Memorial Arena will be :operated at cost, that is, it will be necessary for the municipalit to only levy for the debenture issue. There is no reason why any ;should be made for operating costs. There is one other very import- ;question in connection with our Arena. I would like to see the 1959 Coundil take steps in some way to erect or construct in or on the arena a fitting memorial plaque or standard or something to commemcr `I the boys who gave their lives. We have one in the rear of the Townsh! ,'Hall for the boys of the First World War 1914 -1918. Possibly con sideration should be given to removing that one to the Arena along the construction a like Memorial for the Boys of the recent World i?a. 1939 -1945. On the fire and police set up I can say very little. I think al we ask of them that the same high standard of efficiency be maintain= One year ago we recommended the formation of a fire committee under the chairmanship of one member of Council, the fire chief from each department along with one member from each of the fire departments This committee has worked out very well and I think it should be continued. One very stattling question before us in Stamford is the supply of water. Both the 1949 Council along with the 1949 Public Utilities Commission have taken steps to have the Township Engineer prepare complete and comprehensive report on what is required. I understa_ui that within a very few t7eeks the report will be completed and then i' will be up to the Public Utilities Commission and the Council to take steps to remedy this unsatisfactory condition. In the Engineer's Department this past year a building inspector was appointed who has been able to attend to the supervision and construction of homes and other buildings in the Township. One thing that he has just completed is the revising or redrafting of the new building by -law for the Township•which should be brought before Counc in the near future for approval. I would suggest that along with thi by -law the Council raise the building permit fees in order to take ca of the cost of supervision of this work. We are very much below the average municipality in the matter of fees for building permits. On the Township roads I would like to recommend to the 1950 Cowl to continue the programme that has been carried out for the past two years of sua.Tntenancp,*w1dening and resurfacing the mainly travelled roads. I think this year parts of Drummond Dorchester and Dunn Stre will have to be rebuilt. In the Wartime Housing area I feel that a complete road programme should be carried out in widening the ditches The removing of surface water from that area has not been too good. In the way of equipment I might say that out trucks and tractor are all in good condition all the way down the line. Talking to the Engineer I believe the only addition of equipment will be a 3±a11 tractor with mower plow attachments. During 1 949 in the Township Storehouse. sanitary facilities have been constructed for the men. augural dress anks for ants ourn 2 flutes airman of nance airman of ads wers I would again like to thank the people of St'ord for the acclamation accorded me. I will certainly do my best to justify it. One appeal I would like to make to the people of Stau..fcrd Township is to take a little more interest in municipal affairs. At the weekly Council meetings the only peorle,with one or two exceptions, we have out to a meeting are people who want something or who have some specific business there. At the election meeting held at the Stamford Collegiate only 35 people attended out of 13,000. On election day 32A of the elegible voters voted. So T would, through the :press and radio, appeal to the residents of Stamford Township to take a greater interest in municipal affairs. 1. Bridge Allan "That this Council express to the Rev. Pr.

His report suggested that in the case of small subdivisions, it might be fair policy to have the subdiviser deposit monies to the extent of 5% of the unimproved value of the property to a municipal fund which would be used to purchase recreational areas of sufficient size. He 1 recommended that the Council designate an area of subdivision control as soon as possible. During the discussion of the report considerable discussion took place on the question of premature subdivisions. It was pointed out that subdivisions,registered prior to the time of demand reflects on pro- perty sales and increases the cost to the municipality for essential services such as sewers, watermains etc. It was decided to table the question of subdivision control and park areas and have a special meeting of Council in the near future to determine policy in connection with these matters, yi Building Gen permit Ad' Minutes Fin Relief Str Wel General iiRoads �I ;Finance ISM Tourist awker eddler 6.
