" "Look soniewhere down the line and the taxpayers of the region and this town wiII be screaming blue murder," Drumm said. "What you've got now is a lot of pipes in the ground and no building." When the matter was first brought up at a council meeting three weeks ago, Drumm attacked it saying that the region shouid be making an effort to seli already serviced industrial land in the south end of town before opening up new areas. However, other coun- cillors expressed opposition to bis view saying that it was a good business practise to give potential industrial concerns a cboice of location. According to a report from tbe region, the region wants to develop an industrial sec- tion near the Osbawa Air- port while developing a predominantly residential area. ce storrns, hîgh wind; or- fallen troc I m-b; can brnng hydro lines dr,-wn.
