memorandum
on

after

welcoming
the
commis
sion
here
and
expressing
apprecia
tion
at
Its
having
come
so
far
to
hear
hie
local
representations:
The
relationship
between
the
provincial
government
and
the
City
of
Prince
Rupert
la
very
different
to
that
between
the
government
and
all
of
the
larger
and
older
cities
In
the
province.
"At
the
birth
of
Prince
Rupert
the
provincial
government
was
the
owner
of
one-fourth
of
the
11.676
tt-foot
lots
which
constitute,
with
the
streets
and
parka,
the
towntite
of
Prince
Rupert
and
today
the
government
is
still
the
owner
of
1.640
lots
or
about
one-seventh
of
all
the
lota
in
the
city.
tPrlor
to
the
Incorporation
of
the
city
In
1910,
the
government
built
some
temporary
wooden
roadway
and
wooden
sewers
In
the
business
section
at
the
cost
of
$77,-666.11.
After
Incorporation
the
gov
ernment
was
recompensed
by
the
issue
of
bonds
for
the
expenditure
and
this
sUll
remains
a
part
of
the
bonded,
debt
The
sales
of
lots
In
1909,
1910
ard
1911
brought
large
sums
into
the"provlnclal
treasury
and,
out
of
those
funds,
the
government
has
spent
$400,000
In
erection
of
the
Court
House
and
about
$200,000
on
the
six
miles
of
roadway
and
bridge
Just
outside
the
city.
"The
city
has
had
a
heavy
task
to
turn
the
rock
and
muskeg
Into
the
orderly
city
as
it
is
today.
It

built
fifteen
