(e) that a mill rate of 12 mills based on the County
Equalized Assessment is necessary to reduce the
present backlog of construction needs by
approximately 45 per cent in 10 years.
5.
The County's share of the present construction
backlog is estimated at approximately $4,000,000.
The County's share of this present backlog plus
future deficiencies; normal maintenance, new
machinery, overhead, etc. for the next 10 years
totals approximately $9.300.000. Even with the
projected assessment growth, it will take
approximately 8.8 mills to keep the backlog from
increasing over $4,000,000 and it will take
approximately 15.5 mills to completely eliminate
the backlog.
The Committee feels that it is desirable to cut
this backlog by approximately 45 per cent in the
next 10 years.
ALL OF 'liTHICH IS RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED.

SPECI!L PROVISIONS RE COl1P!.CTION - (continued)
ilDDITION:',L ROLLERS
When the air tempETature is below 500 F. the Contractor shall
provide an extra roller in addition to those specified, when directed by
the Engineer. This additional roller shall be a pneumatic-tired roller
meeting the requirements of Column I, Table I, above. No additional
payment will be considered for using this roller.
In addition to, or in lieu of one or more of the minimum number
of rollers as specified herein, if satisfactory compaction is not secured
with the minimum number of rollers required, the Contractor, when
directed by the Engineer, shall provide and employ a heavy self~propelled
pneumatic-tired roller satisfying the requirements of Column II, Table I,
above. For providing and employing this heavy roller, the Department
will pay only a rental rate equal to a reasonable rental rate for the
heavy roller minus a reasonable rental for the roller or rollers, if any,
for which the heavy roller was substituted; plus the actual cost of
transporting this heavy roller to and from the project site.
COMP!.CTION PROCEDURE
Normally, rollers shall operate with the drive wheel forward in the
direction of paving.
Breakdown Rolling:
The mixture shall be thoroughly and uniformly compacted as soon
after placing as it will bear the roller without checking or undue dis-
placement. Rolling shall start longitudinally at the lower edge and
proceed tovlard the higher edge of the course, overlapping on successive
trips. ~lternate trips of the roller shall be different lengths.
Intermediate Rolling:
The intermediate roller should follow the breakdown roller as close-
ly as possible. Passes shall be so arranged as to ensure overlapping
successive tire paths. The Contractor shall be responsible, for the unit
price bid, for ensuring the tires are sufficiently hot at the commence-
ment'of paving to prevent pick-up of mix, by operating the roller in hot
sand, or by any other method satisfactory to the Engineer.
Finishing Rollin~:
Finish rolling shall be accomplished with the minimum number of
passes required to produce a satisfactory surface. Finish rolling shall
start longitudinally at the higher edge and proceed toward the lower
edge.
In all cases, mix production and placing shall be controlled so
that all rolling shall be completed before sunset.

To the Council
of Elgin County
Re: County Needs Study
Since it is the duty of the co-ordinating committee to keep the County
Council informed of the progress being made on the Department of Highways
initiated 10 year "County Needs Study", I have been delegated as your con-
sultant to write this brief resumee of progress made to date.
The entire program involves taking an inventory of all existing roads
and bridges and analysing the existing county roads system with respect to
given criterion and proposing changes required to conform to the criterion.
The study also investigates past population and assessment growth and estab-
lishes a future trend. The projected population and assessment provides
necessary information on the amount of future monies available to carry out
construction and maintenance. The past administration and maintenance
figures are also investigated to determi~~ p. Ij.st expenditures in order to
establish a basis for future costs. A maphin~ry inventory is also made in
order to establish a replacement schedule, .
The ~~~ults of o~r WOrk tp 4~te are briefly as follows:
(1) Ponulat:ton and Assessm~nt
The poP\l.lat;i.ol} of ei:1,c}:) !Jl\!m.c;ipal~~y in the County has been pro-
jectectby tl;l.e m<;jtllOd o;f "'~aljt pc.lultl'es". This method is a mathematical
.pl'ocess whiCh 'take~ .P~~~.:population figures and from these establishes
IJ. hasis.$.9.r,,t':<;t)kI',e'j)-rojection. The results of our projection are as

St. Thomas 24000
There are several methods of forecasting future assessment. The
one chosen is a projection of population multiplied by the current
(1963) assessment per person. On this basis the 1975 total assessment
is projected to be $65,771,070. The assessment per person used to
arrive at the above total assessment figure was $1510.00.
,
(2) Maintenance Costs
Past maintenance costs have indicated a general rise in the
cost of maintaining the county road system. Some of this rise in
cost is due to increased costs of labour, equipment and .materials.
The standard of maintenance of cpunty rpads has also risen and will
continue to rise. A summary of approximate present and projected
future maintenance costs per mile is as follows:.

(3) Future Eouioment Costs
The existing equipment, the need for additional equipment and
a future replacement schedule have been discussed, debated, and
analysed to some extent; however, at this stage, no definite decisions
have yet been made.
(4) Administration Costs and Engineering Overhead
Administration costs in the past have fluctuated from 2.0% to
2.5% of the total yearly expenditure. On the basis of these costs
experienced in tije.past and some probable additional costs, a per-
centage of 3% has bee~ proposed to establish future costs.
(5) Engineering Overhead
This item covers approximately twenty items ranging from Work-
mens Compensation Insurance, pension, legal fees to traffic counts,
permits and incidentals. ~ the past these costs have shown an up-
ward trend from approximately 2.4% to 3.4% of the yearly total
expenditure. A projection of this trend provides us with an Engineer-
ing Overhead cost in 1975 of 4.7% of the total expenditure.
(6) Bridge Inventorv
All bridges in the county have been inventoried and analysed with
respect to the county standard$ Which are set by the Department of
Highways. On the basis o:\' tl1ese standard$, the County of Elgin halO
26 critically deficient bridges. There are also four otl1ers wl1ich
will require replacement in the 10 year period. The total cost to
replace these bridges is $2,888,000.00. These bridges have been given
a prioritY,J;'ating il'l ordElr..tl.' determine their relative importance.
Both the cpnditiqn 9~ the Strncture and the importance of the road
are used tp art~v~ ~t tl1e priprity schedule. To date no definite pro-
ject by projector mpnetary.program for replacement of these structures
has been decided. .
(7) Roads Inventorv
At present we are in the process of completing and summarizing
the results of our field inVentory. This will be completed in the
near future.
/
(8) General
Upon completion of both road and bridge inventories and the
projection of future assessment, an attempt will be made to arrive
at a desirable mill rate which will eliminate or reduce existing
backlog needs.
There has also been considerable preliminary descussion con-
cerning the extent of the suLurban roads system and also the function
this roads system should preform for the County and the City of St.
Thomas. One of the major problems that has arisen to da,te has been
the limited extent of available funds to construct ahd.maintaina
desirable suburban roads system. Most discussion to date has con-
cerned itself with ways and means of overcoming Or sidestepping
this problem by manipulating the coUnty and suburban systems to
l5est use the mOl1iesavailable..
The various divisions of this report are .approaching completion such
that the fOrmal writing of the report will start in the near futUre. The
Co-ordinating Committee will be keeping the County Council informed ot
progress and will be requiring your decisions on several important phases
of the report.
