Guibord wants to finish what he started GREGGCHAMBERLAIN gregg.chamberlain@eap.on.ca to have a study done to determine the best location for a second industrial park. There would be some restrictions set on the type of industries allowed to set up.
Now, he noted, the city has a draft 50-year plan to help guide future decisions and also the computer analysis software needed to crunch the numbers for financing and other imperatives. “I do have other ideas I want to work on,” Guibord said, citing creation of a proper in- dustrial park for the city.“This was one of my goals during the first election (campaign).” Clarence-Rockland has a commercial/ light industrial park along County Road 17 on the east end of Rockland. But Guibord said it is not adequate for the city’s future economic development needs. He wants
the highway connection had begun to de- termine whether it should be expanded to four-lane status or if a bypass is needed to deal with commuter traffic needs between the two municipalities. But that EAP is on hold now while the City of Ottawa’s own EAP about its proposed light-rail link expansion to Orléans is under- way. The results of that could affect the out- come of the 17/174 EAP.

“Not industries pertaining to oil, but in- dustries that would work with farming in our region,” he said, adding that the focus would be more on “green” industries that cater to the eco-tech sector. One other issue Guibord wants to con- tinue with is final resolution of the County Road 17/Highway 174 link between Rock- land and Orléans.

L’ORIGNAL | Marcel Guibord wants at least one more term as mayor of Clarence- Rockland so he can clear some outstand- ing matters off of his political desk. “There are new issues (to address) defi- nitely,” Guibord said, during a lull at the United Counties of Prescott-Russell council session Sept. 24. “But mostly things to final- ize which we started.” Guibord listed two priority issues he wants to resolve as part of a second term as mayor. One is securing senior-level gov- ernment funding for needed infrastructure improvements. The other is reviewing and updating the city’s asset management plan, which is now necessary for any applications for provincial support grant programs. The incumbent mayor also noted that the next council also needs more detailed information on the condition of Clarence- Rockland’s existing infrastructure, includ- ing roads, water and sewer service systems, municipal buildings and other facilities. During his past term, he indicated there was not enough up-to-date information on the state of the city’s infrastructure to help council make decisions. “We were hoping to have more infor- mation,” he said. “It took us quite a while to gather this and help us make decisions based on our priorities.”
