Report WD-20-82 to the March 22, 1982, General Purpose and Admin-
istration Committee, detailed the reasons for an application to
close and convey the southerly 174.79 ft. of the road allowance
i

WD-47-82 - 2 _
In accordance with Town Policy and procedure, and upon Council 's
approval of Report WD-20-82 by Resolution # C-266-82, a reference
plan was obtained and, subsequently, an appraisal of the value of
the land was acquired.
During the course of the survey work it was discovered that, in
order to give the Town a uniform width of 66 ft. on Green's Side
Road, to which the Applicant requires access, it would be necess-
ary for the Town to acquire the small areas of land shown as
i
Parts 2 and 3 on Plan 1OR-1466, and this can be accomplished at
the same time as the Applicant acquires Part 1 for frontage pur-
poses.
The area of land comprising Part 1 is 3,554 sq. ft. , or 0.082 acres
which, at a value of $4575.00/acre would cost the Applicant some
$375. 00. The areas comprising Parts 2 and 3, Plan 1OR-1466, are
369 sq. ft. and 4 sq. ft. , respectively, which the Town wishes to
acquire. By deducting the area of Parts 2 and 3 from the acreage
comprising Part 1 , for purposes of value-balancing, the Applicant
would be required to pay for a net total of 3,181 sq. ft. , or
0.073 acres, at a cost of $333. 00 (Three Hundred and Thirty-Three
Dollars) .
It is suggested that, upon the Applicant's confirmation of an
exchange of lands, as detailed above, and acceptance of costs
applicable to the purchase of Part 1 , this matter can proceed to
it' s conclusion, in accordance with established Policy.
Respectfully submitted,
R.G. Dupuis, P. Eng. ,
Director of Public Works.
