THE chairman of the Plan­ ning and Transportation


to consider the whole issue of the future of the Auction Mart including alternative ways of developing the site and its report to the full committee contained a recommendation that a three-year lease be offered to the company to enable th e co u n c i l to fu l ly consider and evaluate, in c o n su l ta t io n with all interested people, the long­ term issues involved, with a view to reaching a deci­ sion to the iiest advantage of all concerned. “At the full committee


meeting an amendment to this recommendation was made of a . five-year lease but this was not carried as there was an equality of votes. The original motion of a three-year lease was then put to the committee and was carried by six votes to five with myself voting for the original motion. This is still only a recommendation to full council which will make the final decision.”
