Land Not Wanted
A start on the Opawa expressway would not be made for at least 20 years, so the council had no interest in acquiring properties affected by the line of the motorway until just before construction began, except in cases of extreme hardship, the city development committee reported to the City Council last evening. The committee asked the council to make this clear because the property administration committee had had requests for the council to buy land that would be required. The council agreed to invite land agents to a meeting to advise them of the position and seek their co-operation.
