on Chester from Fraser to Prairie, at an estimated cost of $135,000.00.

Moved by Alderman Mabbett:

Seconded by Alderman Thompson:

That as recommended in a report from the Public Works Committee,
January 28th, 1977, the installation of a 42-inch diameter storm sewer
on Fraser Avenue West of Chester Street, and a 21—inch diameter storm -
sewer on Chester Street from Fraser Avenue to Prairie Avenue, be commenced -

immediately,at an estimated cust of $135,000.00. Carried.
Aldermen Keryluk, Laking, and Rar .er voted against the resolution.

Prior to passage of the foregoing resolution, a discussion ensued,
and Alderman Laking stated he could not vote in favour of the motion
until he had further reviewed the 1977 Budget, and Alderman Ranger
stated he did not feel the 42-inch storm sewer installation would be
required if it is not intended to reconstruct Chester Street to arterial
standards at the same time; and further, that he would like to have a
Look at the whole proposal rather than this one particular part, before
deciding on priorities. Alderman Laking pointed out that the expenditure
will probably result in a 15 mill increase, which will be in excess of
the 8% allowable under the guidelines of the Federal Anti-Inflation

Board. Alderman Traboulay stated he would be voting in favour of the a
expenditure as there is no doubt the work will have to be done in conjunction “
with the Lougheed Highway expansion project. Alderman Keryluk expressed

concern at approving such a sizeable item of expenditure without an

overall review of the budget, and he suggested that the work be phased

over possibly two years in order not to exceed the A.I.B. 8% maximum

allowable increase; however, Alderman Mabbett pointed out that the

Council had decided when improvements were made by the Department of

Highways to the Shaughnessy Street-Lougheed Highway intersection that

construction of Chester Street as a major arterial route was a priority,

and he requested approval to proceed with the initial work of installing

the storm sewers. Alderman Thompson drew attention to the fact that the

work has to be done before the Department of Highways moves traffic up

Chester Street; however, he stated the Committee would submit a report

on the feasibility of phasing the project as a whole.
