"Carried" ITEMS OF PUBLIC INTEREST/ROUND TABLE COMMENTS County of Oxford RE: Population, Household and Employment Projections to 2031 It- County- projections.pdf The attached document, which appeared as an 'Information' item on the Council Agenda dated April 24th, 2006, was discussed by Deputy Mayor Smith. The following points were noted: • The report is based on numbers. He pointed out a couple concerns he had relating to the reported population and growth statistics. He noted that, with Woodstock being of a larger population, the growth numbers are higher, but what's not brought out is that, on a per capita basis, Tillsonburg has grown about 10% more than Woodstock. • The report provides information with respect to the growth of Oxford County and the Provincial average. He noted that there are only 3 municipalities within Oxford that have had a zero growth. • He also commented on the good news of the report ... that from 2006 to 2031 approximately 7,200 jobs will be added to Oxford, resulting from Toyota, Cami, etc. • Deputy Mayor Smith continued that the main reason for his discussion, is that he will request to have this report looked at again. • The report was adopted by County Council April 12, 2006. Deputy Mayor Smith commented that such a report should not have been adopted, when inaccurate information is contained within it. A developer, etc. could at some point refer to this report for information regarding projections... and the information is not correct. • He noted that the report contains a statement that indicates Tillsonburg will not be directly accessible to any of the 400 series highways... which is inaccurate as well. Deputy Mayor Smith commented that such a statement should be retracted. CLOSED MEETING SESSION CONTINUED No. 12 Moved by Deputy Mayor Smith Seconded by Councillor Lamb AND RESOLVED THAT Council move into Executive - Closed Session.
