Minutes1952(A)Inaugural Meeting of the Stamford Township Council held in the
Council Chamber on Monday, January 7th, 1952 at 11 a.m,
All the members of the Council and the member of the Public
Utilities Commission took the Declaration of Office before the Clerk,
A. C. Huggins.
The Reverend H. R. Bagnall gave the Invocation for the 1952
Council.
Reeve Arthur George Bridge gave the inaugural address as follows:
Members of the Township Council and Ladies and Gentlemen of
Stamford Township:
In presenting my Inaugural address for the year 1952, I wish first
to extend my congratulations to t'2 re- elected members of the
1951 Council and also to the new Deputy Reeve, Mr. Stuart Moore,
and it is to be hoped that we will be able to work together in
harmony during the year.
I also want at this time to express my sincere thanks to the
Clerk, Treasurer, Assessor and Building Inspector and all the
clerical staff for the manner in which they carried out their
respective duties, often under great difficulties, during the
reconstruction of the offices, coupled with the fact that it
was necessary to have a special election in the early spring,
and the submission of the Hospital question, and also the formation
of a Separate School district, all of which caused considerable
more work than that which happens in an ordinary year.
The new sub divisions and numerous property changes all aided
to the work in all the three offices, and the Council are indeed
fortunate in having such an excellent staff.
In the Engineering Department, the Council could have had no more
efficient staff, ably controlled by Mr. M. F. Ker, and all work
last year was carried out with very little delay considering the
large Local Improvement programme, and the extra work in connection
with the Hydro Project No. 2, and the large Waterworks undertaking.
The Road, Sewer, Sidewalk and Cemetery men all endeavoured to
carry out their various jobs in a commendable manner, and they
deserve a lot of credit for the work they accomplished during the
recent snow storms.
T0 :the Welland D strict Health Unit and the Victorian Order of
:Nurses, the workdW these organizations are doing calls for the
highest commendation, and the expenditures made are very small
when one. considers .the health of the Municipality.
4toW, briefly what/Was- accomplished by' the Council.of 1451:
Myvthanks must go out also to the Arena Commission for the manner
in which the affairs of the Arena were governed, and without having
to ask for an additional levy, speaks well for the Commission
and Management. The retirement of Messrs. Rosberg and Peckham
from the Commission left a gap that will be hard to fill.
'To the three Fire Companies, a special word of praise must be
tendered them for the method of operation during the year, and
.it is hoped that the preient arrangement can be continued for
'another year, bearing in mind that the cost of the Fire service
is a direct charge on the property owners alone, and that the
.tenants do not directly contribute one cent (except perhaps in
rent) to the cost of the services, and which mean so much to
them in case of. fire.
During the year,building permits were issued well over the sum
f $6 000,000.,•but of this there was a large amount not taxable
Aid aiso• that whilst many.permits were issued, construction has
:not as yet been started.
As you see, we have Completely renovated the Council Chamber,
have made more space for all the staff, and this without giving
up any of the floor space of the Council chamber itself, and
a word of praise roust he given to the former Deputy Reeve Donald
Glintz under whose supervision the wJ rk was carried L)'IL. We also
purchased a considerable plot of land at the back of the hall,
fronting on Sylvia Place, which can be utilized if funds can be
made available for the erection of a new police station,
something badly needed. The revenue from the house on the
property will return a satisfactory interest rate.
During the ye one of the best pieces of equipment was delivered
to the Township in the shape of a new fire truck, which will
carry 800 gallons of water, and which will be of inestimable
benefit should a fire occur in any district where there are no
water mains or ponds available,
On the whole the Council of last year managed to keep within
their estimated expenditure, and will probably wind up with a
small surplus,
Coming to 1952, I cannot hold out any hope for a reduction of
taxes, in spite or our assessment having been increased by about
One million dollars.
Our debenture debt has steadily risen of late, and is due for a
further increase in this year and again in 1 953, Perhaps it
might be just as well to quote a few figures, so that those who
have to foot the bills will have some idea of why taxes must go
up.
However, to my mind, some pressure must be 'brought to bear upon
the Dominion and Provincial Governments that they must contribute
a larger amount to the ever rising cost of Education. Property
owners cannot be expected to continue to carry the load, and when
one considers that the onwers here outnumber the tenants more than
three to one, it will be easy to see on whose shoulders the burden
will fall.
A tdtietendsofc1951 we had school debentures amounting to $532,785.00
on that sum of $207,826.00
there may be received fromtheProvincial Board
ofEducation ab o l t es
$200 000. In the Utilities and Local Improvement we have a debt
of $1,889,996, of which some 51,619,979 will be recovered
from rates, and from those using Hydro and Water. There is also
a General debenture debt of 4190,037 principal and interest, mainly
for the Memorial Arena. Whilst a considerable portion of the
above figures, which amounts to $2,994,655 is recoverable, there
still leaves a balance as a direct charge upon t; property
owners of $1,164,679.
It is now proposed to add this year, leaving the Hospital question
,for the time being, debentures to the extent of $870,000, of which
approximately some ;402,070 will be recoverable. The interest
charges on these two items will be $356,842.00. In addition we
will have to issue debethires for local improvements completed in
1951, just about $150,000 without interest charges being added
<most recoverable.
Before leaving this part of my address, I am very strongly of
the opinion, that there should be some changes made in the School Act.
`=-It does not seem right to me that any Council should have thrust
!;:upon there, the task of raising vast suns of money for educational
purposes and then have no method of supervising the expenditures.
rI do not want to be accused of carping criticism, but I have been
-,told that a lot of absolutely unnecessary expend1tureb=havb. been
=:included in the Queen Elizabeth School on Drummond Road, and had
members of the Council the authority to examine the spdcifications,
well two heads are generally considered to_ be .better than one, and
flopey. might have been saved.
The next question to be dealt with this year is the isning j�t
of debentures for the sum of 5819,000 for the Hospital, and
when the interest is added', the amount if issued at 50 (and
where will one get money at par unless at that rate) the total will jumpi i
to $1,314,373.00 of which none is recoverable, but will be a direct; I r,.
charge upon the property owners only.
So far no by -law has been passed, nor has any application been nade
-t,, the Municipal Board for validation, and in any considered
opinion no action should be taken by this Council until all the
terms of the question submitted on Dec, 3rd are complied rri_th and fir'
that is the raising of either 5400,000,00 or 5500,000.00 by public
subscription has been fully subscribed and paid up. Every avenue
should then be explored to see if the cost cannot be kept down
well below the 3 million dollar estimate, as I firmly believe it
can be.
Before leaving the question of finances, it is just as well
for the members of the Council to bear in mind that with the
opening of the J. C. Morden School, additional levies will be
required for the extra teachers as well as the cost of maintenance,
besides the last years Council advanced the School Board some
$30,000 which has to be included in their requisition this
year. The Chairman of Finance has no easy task ahead of him in
the months to come, and I cannot see how the mill rate can be
kept lower than 66 mills. I have not given these figures with
the idea of discouraging anybody, but I do believe it is wise
to put our cards on the table, and let the people aware of the
facts.
With regard to the affairs of the Township of Stamford and the
Welland County Council, it seems impossible but that we will
have to add one more mill on to what the Board of Education
will cause to be raised. During the past year, there was never
an opportunity go by to let the County Councillors know that
Stamford paid practically one -fifth of the whole County rate,
and it is my intention along with the Deputy Reeve to further
by every possible means the need of more County road work in
Stamford. We did have more work done last year than for many
pest years, and we will not abate our efforts in this direction.
As your 'representative on the Public Utilities Commission, I
feel that it was with a great sense of relief, that Mr. Roland
F. Booth was returned to the Commission last December. All the
members have worked in complete harmony since he came on the
Commission.
I.feel, however, it is up to me to give the ratepayers some more
unpalatable news. The rapid growth of the municipality, plus the
very large increase in residences have strained our resources to
the limit, and we have been very fortunate that none of our trans-
formers burnt up, due to excessive overloading, and it was mainly
due to the work of the Manager, the Line Superintendent, and his
excellent workmen he has under him, that by continual switching a line
from here and there, that no damage happened.
It is ndticed that we are being asked for $200,000. This is to buy
new transformers, electric meters, poles, wiring and all other
;supplies. There will be an increase in the Hydro rates of about
20 You will be pleased to hear that the Waterworks system will
show a profit of, I believe, close to X25,000, and this without
the installation of meters, the disposal of which will soon be
_accomplished and at a nice profit. However, it will be necessary
to increase our rates somewhat, in order to meet the debenture
payments caused by the new half million gallon standpipe, and
the laying of the new mains on Dunn Street, Dorchester Road and
Lundy's Lane, which will give that district an adequate supply
,rof water, and I.hope wipe out forever, the plague of a shortage
,_prevalent for so many summer seasons. One of the reasons for
the proposed increase is the fact that upon completion of the
new City main from Chippewa, we will have to pay•an increase of
Oree;:;Ants per, 1000 more for water.
Before closing, I would like to make a few su °hest ions and
recommendations, which I trust the Council will give due
consideration.
First, I believe the time has code when we should have a sub-
division control by -law. There are many subdivisions now, with
numerous vacant lots, where the necessary utilities are in
existence.
I.f these were filled up, it would tend to keep our debenture debt
down for a few years. Secondly, it may be deemed good financially
to consider the levelling of a Poll tax.
It would also suggest that when considering the question of grants,
that the present grant to the Niagara Falls Public Library be
materially increased. The increased population certainly tends
to more borrowing books, and if I may suggest it, that the grant
be increased to $12,000.00. Finally, I recommend that some
consideration be given to an extra clerk being engaged to work in the
office of the Treasurer. The work has piled up tremendous].;i and
it does not seem right that he should have to work at least four
nights a week. She could also be utilized in the other offices
if required.
In conclusion, I again express the hope that the Council relations
will be harmonious throughout the year, and that all our discussions,
and undoubtedly there will be some, will be in the best interests
of the whole township, and that one and all will have the best and most
peaceful New Year that it is possible to have.
$tnevs'De0AtyeReeve Stuart Moore gave the following remarks:
Ladles and Gentlemen of Stamford Township:
First, let me thank you once more for your support in the election
and allow me to re- affirm my promise to do everything within
my power to give you good sound business administration, and I
extend congratulations to Reeve A. G. Bridge on his fine inaugural
address.
We are starting a New Year 1952, may it hold happiness and prosperity
for you.
I am looking forward to this year enthusiastically, knowing that
it is indeed going to be a most interesting year for me.
Personally I am very optimistic about our future in Stamford
Township. Our Reeve has told you our tax rate is going to increase,
that we must go slow on capital expenditures.
It is our financial future I wish to speak to you about. I have
heard various members of Council in the past approach the increased
tax rate problem by calling for a reduction In expenditures.
-The portion of expenditures over which tlae Council has direct control
,.and where savings can be effected is very small. I recognize the
'need for economy but even the greatest economy is not going to
-affect your mill rate to any great extent.
,The solu to our tax problem as I see it is new sources of
"revenue.
JThe poll tax is one source of new revenue but this will not be a
major source.
4Ie must have industrial expansion. New industry must be brought
0 Stamford Township.
',7In the past few years our population has grown by leaps and bounds,
.many many homes have been built, bringing a great increased
1
burdenof cost for schools, and all the attending services. But
while this has,been going on we have not kept pace by acquiring
'hbw industry. 1 do not attempt to blame anyone, but I do say 1952
,uncil`inust do everything within their power, devoting time,
thought, and yes,money if necessary towards acquiring new
industry 66r this Township. This will bring increased sources
of revenue to our Township to help with our tax problem.
I feel tht towards this problem the Council be a united unit,
working in agreement and harmony.
Councillor George White spoke.bf the'need;of new industries in
the Township and stated that he was going Lo Lake F
at his disposal to induce industr a`e_i;is
establishment of an industry in thetareacwouldnincreaseea. The
employment and assist the econony of the municipality.
Councillor Wm. R. Sootheran as Chairman of the 1951 Finance
Committee of Council predicted a surplus on the oper<tions
for last year and congratulated the Reeve on his Inaugural
address and was happy to see that Deputy Reeve Stuart Moore
realized that the Township had to get new sources of revenue.
He also thanked the press and radio for their service.
Councillor John Allan gave the followir re +narks:
Mr. Reeve, Fellow members of C ouncil, Ladies and Gentlemen and
Friends of the Radio audience:
We have now passed a very busy and important year in the history
of Stamford Township and are now entering a new year which promises
to be another very important one.
Stamford Township has growing pains and it is up to your Council
and all other governing bodies to watch and see that the pains
do not get too severe that they cannot be cured. To do that,
they will need the full co- opdration of all the offipials and
staff and all residents, I would suggest to the residents they
confine their demands and requests to purely essential services,
and to have patience in having them applied.
I would like at this time to say a word concerning our officials
and staff, without a good staff our Council or any other Council
are in for a difficult time. We have had wonderful co- operation
especially when you see rnen working, clearing snow and ice, nights,
Sundays and even Christmas and New Year's day, for which we are
very thankful. With that continued co- operation we can still
keep Stamford the banner Township.
I wish you all a very prosperous and happy year 1952.

Mr. Arthur Frown, representative of the Niagara Falls
Separate School'Boardr.and the Board Solicitor, Mr. Frank
Matthews, attended the meeting by invitation of Council
and matters of mutual'. interest between the Board and
the Corporation were discussed.
The Council pointed out t}at the Board should make an
official recuisition for funds under Section 71 of the
Separate School Act and referred the Board to Section 3
of the Public School Act relative to debentures. Council
indicated that it was concerned about the rising cost to
supply and equip public schools in our Township and if
separate school assessment increased noticfbly over the
present assessment that consideration might have to be
given to charging ratepayers, who change from public
school to separate school support, their share of
debenture costs that were incurred at the time the
change was made. Because of this factor it was felt
that any agreement between the Board and the Council
should be on a year to year basis and not cover a term
of years. The representatives of the Board stated that
they would discuss the matters brought to their attention
with the Board next week and would advise the decisions
that their board would make.

The Rental Housing scheme was considered between 7 and 8 p.m. The following representa-
tives of the Stamford Board of Education and the Housing Committee of the Greater Niagara
Chamber of Commerce were present on invitation;
Board of Education Chairman
Housing Committee Chairman
Roy Connell
F. A. Branscomhe
Council explained the new Federal Provincial Rental Housing Scheme to the representatives
and stated that the p site for such a scheme would be on property owned by Central
Mortgage and Housing Corporation located near the corner of McLeod and Drummond Roads
"here approximately 1188 lots would be eve They inquired from representatives of
the Board what effect such it program might have on public school accommodation. Chairman
M. F. Jonen,on behalf of the Board,stated that any howling program would affect the problem
of school accommodation and that at the present time there is it shortage of classrooms
which will be somewhat alleviated when the new Drummond Road school is in operation. Even
on the completion of this school there will still be a shortage of classroom facilities.
He stated that further accommodation will be required whether the Council decides to proceed
with the rental housing scheme or not.
Mr. Connell and Mr. Branscombe both stated there was a definite need for rental units
in this district and urged the Council to take action on the matter. In summing up
the matter it is apparent that more classroom accommodation is required whether we
enter into an agreement for rental houses or not since the area in which these houses
are proposed will develop quickly. The difficulty in connection with those.units is
that the municipality will probably.have to accept about 16% loss on taxes that the
houses would produce. This loss will occur because some of the tenants will he unable
to pay the rent the houses should normally rent at and will effect subsidization.

The point meeting of the three Councils was proposed by the City of Niagara Falls and
Alderman Inglis pointed out that the City Council was of the opinion that the Planning
of the entire area should be co- ordinated and planned in such a way that adequate
facilities would be provided for the next 25 years. He stated that the City was
concerned about entrance arteries to Niagara Falls and mentioned the Falls View District,
Lundy's Lane and Thorold Stone Road. Reference was made to the possibility that the
traffic highway being considered in.New York State would tie in with the Whirlpool
Bridge and that if this is true proper arrangements should be made nn:lour Master Plan
to provide an outlet to the Queen Elizabeth Way. He stated that the Department of
Highways might some time run $20 Highway along McLeod Road instead of on Lundy's Lane
and that an understanding should be reached. with the Department as to their plans for
this district. Among other considerations mentioned was the allotment of locations
for municipal buildings.
Considerable discussion took place on the Master Plan until approximately 9:30 p.m. but
no definite action was taken and it was generally agreed that more the should be
devoted to study the plan.

A Special Meeting of Council hold on Wednesday, July 16th, 195 at
8 p.m.
The meeting was called to have a conference with the members of the City Council at
9:15 in connection with the joint Police proposal for the City of Niagara Falls and
the Township of Stamford,
Prior to 9:15 Stamford Council considered the relative cost of operation of the City
and Township Police Departments,
At the joint meeting all members of the City Council were present and Reeve A. G. Bridge
and Mayor E. Hawkins presided. Reeve Bridge stated that Stamford Township was willing
to enter a joint. police proposal on the basis of a 70 30 division of cost which would
apply to capital costs and operation costs. Mayor Hawkins stated that the City proposed
abaeie of 57 43 division for capital and a 65 35 division for operation. During the
diecussion of the division of costs the Township Engineer stated that he believed that
Stamford could build an adequate police station to take care of our own needs for between
$30,000 and $35,000. The City Engineer stated that a building costing in the vicinity
of $140,000,00 to $150,000.00 of a modern structure with stone facing with extensive
plumbing, heating and wiring facilities and Court room sufficiently large for a staff
ofbetween 65 and 70 men had been designed for a joint police force. At the conclusion
of the meeting Stamford contemplated that they were agreeable to a 65 35 basis for capital
expenditures and a basis of 70 30 with an allowance for i increase for 5 years for
operating costs. The City stated that they would consider the proposal at their next
meeting and advise Council of their deliberation.
Asa result of a verbal report brought in by the Township Engineer in connection with an
interview he had with representatives of the Department of Planning and Development the
following resolution was passed:
Hou`g 1. Sootheran
Allan "THAT we ask the Dept. of Planning and Development
to develop the entire area now owned by Central
Mortgage and Housing Corp. in the Vicinity of

(a) Construct 70 rental housing on the

EXPLANATION

23. (Cont'd) Traffic Act of the Province of Ontario and
it is deemed advisable that such other
municipalities should have power to regulate
the maximum speed of motor vehicles within
their boundaries, such regulation thereof to
be by by -law subject to the approval of the
Minister of Highways.
.BE IT RESOLVED that Section 1 of the Highway
Traffic Act R.S.O. 1950, Chapter 167, should
be amended by deletion of clauses (1) and
(11), paragraph (a) of sub section 1, and
substitttion therefore of a definition of
"built -up area" to mean an area designated
by a by -law of a local municipality; and
where signs are displayed as.required by
the regulation.
The Highway Traffic Act R.S.O. 1950, Chapter 167, Section 28.
(1) No motor vehicle shall be operated at a greater rate of speed than,
(a) fifty miles per hour,
(i) upon a highway not within a city, town, village, police
village or built -up area, or
(11) upon a highway designated by the Lieutenant- Governor in
Council as a controlled access highway under The Highway
Improvement Act, whether or not such highway is within a
city, town, village, police village or built -up area;
(b) subject to clause a, thirty miles per hour upon a highway
within a city, town, village, police village or built -up area;
The Highway Traffic Act R.S.O. 1950, Chapter 167, Section 1.
(1) In this Act,
(a) "built -up area" means the territory contiguous to a highway not
within a city, town, village or police village where,
(1) not less than fifty per cent of the frontage upon one side
of the highway for a distance of not less than 600 feet is
occupied by dwellings or dwellings and buildings used for
business purposes, or
(11) not less than fifty per cent of the frontage upon both sides
,of the highway for a distance of not less than 300 feet is
occupied by dwellings or dwellings and buildings used for
business purposes,
end signs are displayed as required by the regulations; 1947, 0. 45,
8 1, part.
Under the Highway Traffic Act as at present enacted, Townships
nomatter whether they be of an urban character or not, may not enact by -laws 1
toprovide for a 30 mile speed limit (as provided by the Highway Traffic Aot
for cities, towns, villages and police villages) even though it may be pre-
dominantly urban and its by -laws be proposed to apply only to that urban
portion; power to do so having been taken away from Townships by the Amend-
tent of 1947. The Statute attempts to substitute a general enaction covering
thie definition "built -up area" which is sadly defective. Particularly it
le rare in residential areas to find streets or highways in which for 300
feet on both sides or 600 feet on one side of the highway the frontage is
Zs-14W by dwellings or buildings used for business purposes. Note that
the•frontage is to be 000uviiedby buildings. This can only mean that if more the
then 50% of the rontage is olear of buildings the area cannot be described
ee•a built up ar It is, of course, not good practice to have 50% of
the frontage of any built on lot 000upied by buildings in any residential

short portions of such streets, so that the
