The planned road would be constructed in Prince County and would follow a route from Albany to Reid’s Corner through to Traveller's Rest, continue westward taking in St. Eleanors and Miscouche.

Mr, Cannon warned however, that a railway may have to be sacrificed for the project.

Another important topic on the agenda was that of water rates. The town submitted for approval an amendment to the present metered interim water rates at a hearing of the public utilities commission here yes-

The projosed rates are as follows: 40 cents per 1.000 gal- lons per two month period for the first 100.000 gallons: 80 cents per 1.000 gallons for the next 100,000 and 5 cents per 1,000 forall over 200.000 gal- Ions.

Trade board members also discussed harbor ging. The ,question was why shipping ves- sels had a difficult time enter- ing and leaving Summerside Harbor. The apparent reason was that the harbor being nar- row and crooked. the action to be taken is that of widening and deepening of the harbor around the wharf, it was stated. INDUSTRIAL PARK

A letter from the Atlantic De- velopment Board revealed that Summerside‘s industrial park has now been officially approv- ed by the federal government.

The development board in- dicated there were still some minor points to be connected such as: the need for a suitable agency to run the park and res- triction on the park to allow in- dustrial businesses only.

Mr. Cannon expressed fidene that such industries “would be established in the near future".

Also announced were new winter Eastern Provincial Air- ways times that will go into ef- fect Oct_ 6.

Members of the town council. local merchants and interested citizens were told here yester- day by the Public Utilities Com mission at a hearing on am- mendments to the town interim water rate schedule that the most .the commission could do was take the matter under ad- visement.

Commission chairman Judge St, Clair Trainor made this an- nouncement after some 3% hours of testimony which in- cluded a submission for the town by Town Manager Joseph A, Brophy along with a quco tion and answer period and statements by a number in at- tendance.

The submission requested that an amendment made in the metered rates only for the town. The interim rates which had been put into effect early this year are as follows: 60 cents per 1.000 gallons for the first 100,000 gallons and 56 cents per 1,000 for all over 100.000.

In presenting extensive tech- nical data, Mr. Brophy told thr- commission th at after six months operation of the utility under the new rates it had shown an operating profit .1: excess of the amount budgeted. NEW RATES SUGGESTED

In the submission it was stat- ed .that metered firms who are heavy water users began to complain of the highwater bills and the hardships being suffer ed by them as a result of these rates. With some thought to the loss of metered customers by business moving out of town. Mr. Brophy stated, and the pos sible loss of new businesses to the town. this submission had been prepared.

Rather than being broken down in two block of 60 cents and 56 cents the proposed new rates are scaled down gradually in three blocks as follows: to cents per 1,000 gallons per two month period for the first 1 000; 30 cents per 1,000 for the next 100,000 gallons and 25 cents per 1.000 gallons for all 0V

The proposed new rates would be in force only until such time as the rates of Engineering Sur vey Ltd, who have been hired to conduct a survey. are pre sented early in the new year.

The amended rates won I ‘ keep the water and sewerage utility within its budget for 1964.

Judge Trainor said it was not the concern of the commission whether the interim rates work- ed hardships on the industries and it was not in the position to yield to the remarks that the rates were adverse to business The chairman added that the commission must work within the four corners “of the statute" and must base its decisions on facts and figures.

imposed Water Rate

Among the persons address- ing the board at the hearing was T. Earle Hickey. who sug- gested that: 1. If there was any profit element in the electric c h a rge to the water and sew- erage utility it should be elim- inated; 2. That an item in ex penses reserved for equipment should be included when com- puting the rates; 3. That the de- preciation rate based on the life of the plant rather than on debenture retirement and Inter» est which is over a 20-year per- 0d.

The commission chairman felt these were points well tak- en and suggested the town study these proposals and present the commission with an addition to ts submission in the near fu- re

...... S:

Former Mayor J. Ernest Mor- rison asked if the commisslon had ordered the Town of Sum- merside to give a breakdown .of the town water utility system prior to the introduction of the present rates and after consider. able discussion, JR. rennan, a member of the commission. answered that the board had not ordered the town to give a breakdown.

NOT SATISFACTORY

He stated however, that after the commission had received the 1962 statement from the town utility. the commission had written the town and stated that it was obvious that the finan- cial situation of the utility was not satisfactory and asked the town what it was going to do about it.

The setting of the interim rates had developed from this no] correspondence be- tween tha town and the com- mission, he said.

The third member of the commission. Mr. Ives. in further clarification. stated that the town itself could not introduce the rates; that it had made a pro- propsal for new rates and that the commission had approved it.

EXTREME CONCERN All representatives of firms showed extreme concern over these present rates and it was stated that the rates put some of the businesses in precarious financial positions. Mr. Brennan told the hear- he was confident that “when the engineering survey rates coma in you will find them

situation “arose from years ago" and that it was due to the town not following the trend. “I feel that as men here in business”, he added "that we realize the right and wrong and that the problem should be looked at squarely and with- out animosity".

He expressed his hopes "that the hearing will relieve the situation".
