According to Mr. Heil, town administrator, the actual date of possesion will be January 31, 1990. The new town hall provides. 9,000 square feet of office space .and 35,000 square feet of warehouse space. By the time the building is customized to fit its needs, council could end up spending anywhere from $300,000 to $700,000. As well, council passed a bylaw giving Seagram the option to purchase 10 acres of town land *3 s on the northeast corner of Ontario Street and the QEW. 4 & â€" However, the cost of the land could vary depending on whether or not it is within the town‘s. _ urban area boundaries. If, and when, they decide to exercise the purchase option, and the land is outside of Beamsville‘s urban development area, Seagram will have to pay $1.1â€"million But, if it‘s located within the urban development area at the time of purchase, the price will 1 } . jump $.2â€"maillion. to $1.3â€"million. l '
