“tral Saanich”. Mayor.R,~ Gordon ©

‘Lee. ‘said Tuesday: that he with

~.that the ‘site selected should pre=

of the Peninsula - municipalities.
‘‘At Wednesday’s meeting of

.. the: Board there was evidence of

support for this view, and to me
Saanichton appears a satisfac-
tory location as fulfilling the in-
tent. of the. -Agnew-Peckham
report, . and because adequate
property allowing for future ex-

said the mayor, _

He dismissed the argument
that. the hospital should be built

northerly extension of the Grea-
