Four other council mern'bers attended. The gathering with councillors, town staff and the developer was an attempt to hammer out details of a 2S-,=-** "quatttoplex" infill' project. Part of the agreement i ic:uded a request by Anotia West for approxi.;.ately .5 hectares of its 2 -hectare parkland dedication be provided for the development. In exchange. the developer agrees to build quattroplex units or the property — a housing form preferred by neighboring residents — instead of townhouses. Aftona West also agrees to provide additional parkland (in the form of parkland credits) to the town in the hire. By a vote of 4-3, council ultimately) gave the "green light" for developers to proceed with the next stage of their proposal. Altona West will apply to the land divisions committee for a parkland severance. However, the plan is a long way from being approved since rezoning is still required. "At this point in time we feel we've satisfied a lot of the outstanding issues." said Ward 3 Regional Councillor Rack Johnson. "All this is doing is starting the process." In addition to not being aware of the meeting, Van Kempen was also dearly incensed by the fact that the town would even consider giving up parkiand to a developer. "rve heard of fast -tracking, but this is unprecedented," Van Kempen told council. "Giving away parkland? fve never heard of it." He scoffed at suggestions that area residents would support a proposal adding more units to a neighborhood and creating less parkland. "This is not an improvement at all for the neighborhood. Something is rotten here." The regional councillor implored his colleagues to delay the application until he had a chance to fully consider it. "I wart two weeks to digest the rarrif:cations of what we're dealing with here." However, Van Kempen's deferral motion was defeated. Local councillor Higdon was absolutely livid when Johnson suggested she hadn't received her notification of tine developer meeting because she had been vacatiortirtg in Scotiand.

Council -in -executive - committee Monday night approved a re -zoning application for a 7 -storey, 90 - unit non-profit apartment building on the south side of Bayly Street west of Liverpool Road. The site is currently zoned for commercial development. The project, proposed by Arcon Non -Profit Housing Corporation, will be built on a vacant portion of Bay Ridges Plaza. It will inc de a mix of one to 3 -bedroom units and 80 per cent of the building will be dedicated to tenants with some Level of subsidized incomes. In offering his support for the project, Mayor Wayne Arthurs said the location of the non- profit apartment building was ideal. "I think this is a very good location for a number of reasons," he told committee. Arthurs went on to say the plan, among other things, provides pedestrian access to a commercial hub. The existing retail component in the area is currently under-utilized and needs support from additional residential development, he said. The plan is also in keeping with the towns efforts to spread out non-profit housing throughout the community, the mayor said However, not all members of council nor a number of delegations that spoke during the meeting, agreed with Arthur's endorsement. Radom Street resident Doug Lockney urged the committee to leave the site — located near a ravine — as it is. "The entire area should be left alone," Lockney said. 'It's an environmentally -sensitive area. Lockrey argued that an existing "glut" of rental housing could accommodate those who wished to move to town. The non-profit project isn't necessary, he said, urging committee to retain the existing commercial Doming. Traffic problems in and OU of the Bay Ridges Plaza were also cited as a reason to not approve the project. Entry into the proposed apartment building would share the plaza's entrances off Bayly Street making a bad traffic area even worse. "I don't see how this site is going to work with this joint access," Ward 2 Regional Councillor Kip Van Kempen said. "It doesn't work now for the plaza. It certainly isn't going to work with another 90 units." "Let's not add to the mistake." Paul Johnston, a planning consultant representing Arcon, outlined a lengthy list of benefits that would be provided to the town as a result of the non- profit project. These inc ded $770,000 worth of development charges ($310,000 to the town), $50,000 in parkland levies and $90,000 in building permit fees. Johnston said the developer has continually dialogued with area residents and has modified its project in response to a ..=be- of stated concern I I Pickering Town Centre 2uper Events LOVE IN YOUR FUTURE PSYCHIC FAIR Feb 8-14 Get Married or Remarried...

Debor Management Ltd., who has owned the land since 1988, planned to build a residential condominium project on the site, comprising 37 townhouses and 68 apartments. The company also owns an adjoining piece of land, at slightly less than three acres. The deferral vote passed 43, with Regional Councillor and acting Mayor Roger Anderson casting the deciding vote. • Book your WINDOW AND DOOR RENOVATIONS now for winter installation and we will reduce the Wstaffation labour cost by 33%.

Peter Wolcnak 1730 McPberson Court, Unit 18, Puipring, Ontario U w3F6 1 , Politics is a tough ,job The latest round of budget talks at Pickering council clearly illustrates it can't be much fun being a politician these days. Sure it's a steady job in a time when most people can't find work But you'd better have skin Bike a rhinoceros. People are frustrated and angry. Local politicians — deservedly or not — are bearing the brunt of that futility. If you listened to the biting personal attacks and collective verbal assaults made on individual members of council during meetings on Jan. 25 and Feb. 1, be glad you never ran for office. Things have been qty. People certainly have a right to criticize their elected representatives. They have a right to demand political accountability and as was the case during recent budget discussions, they also have a right to demand lower taxes. But the personal nature of some public criticism during these discussiions has been a little too scathing — and maybe even unfair. Council is wrestling with a dichotomy of interests — those people demanding no increase to property taxes and those who want additional town services or works. Tough choices that maysimply be mutually exclusive. Somebody will ultimately be unhappy. Elected officials wig have a tough time sorting out the matter. Being the "generalists" that they are, local ..politicians are always dependent on Weir expert administrative staffs for most of the When staff advise that lowering taxes ::means aging levels of town services, Wen whose ?interests must be served? Be SW ;you don't have to decide. What about long-term Werests affiectimg 'future town growth and Aimatdy impacting '.'future budgets if decisions in the present Aren't considered and managed responsubly? How many of us would be prepared to ?decide such things? How many of us eoudd? The point was made in council that ;;politicians once elected seem to become 'different people. Maybe discovering the .liner workings and realkim of managing a town make them see flings different — but W less responsibly. There's a reality to coidend with. It's a tough job and when you have the :opportunity to witness Council on a regular 'iasis, you quicidy realize that fact his no fun.

Let me reflect if I may, on the docent hassle between Pickering council and the growing tax revolt coalition. Lost among all the rhetoric are the savors over 65 who terve paid tax aD those years and who are now being forced out of their homes because they can't afford to pay exhorbitant taxes. Surely isn't it time same provisions were made to give seniors a 50 per cent discournt on taxes? That would help them stay in their own homes which they have worked for all their lives. Let me suggest ways to cit taxes, because tax and Vend is not working and s putting people out of their homes Lets begn with council. Do we rely need such a large oourhd to wade over less than 70,000 people? Suggestion: Cut two people from council and unease the ward sizes. Let us look at management in Pickering. 1 must say with some rekriance that it is time lo cut some of the excess staff at the top, especially the planning department which is overloaded with expenive excess staff.

Resident threatens legal action against town By Dan McLean A local resident who has leveled accusations of corruption against Pickering administrative staff served notice he will launch legal action against the town. Richard Ward, who was a candidate for town mayor during the last municipal election, launched a series of scathing allegations against past town councils and current staff during an executive committee meeting Feb. 10. Ward alleges he was defrauded of property he once owned as a result of actions by the town and direction from staff. He appeared before politicians and town administrators during a pre - council meeting last week in an attempt to negotiate a settlement. However, Ward served notice Monday night that he w.'1 take a harder stance as a result of 'e town's '..nur'1Yrgness to agree :o '4x11 11 - VIEWING BIDDING 10-7:30 p.m. Mon.-Thurs. 10-5 p.m. Friday 10-2 p.m. Saturday 1981-1992 CARS TRUCKS, W I O 0 ONES, BOATS TERMS: CASH IN 72 HOURS NO TOM -INS N0 RESERVE BIOS a compromise. the actions of the town and I'd corruption has cost this "I am taking the town to like to resolve," he told the municipality," Ward told the court," he told executive gathering.

Ottawa, through the finance ministry, announced a year ago :hey would be selling 5,100 acres of the 18,600 -acre Pickering airport property, acquired by the federal 90W. =en' :.n tie eariy 1970s. Cons:''a::-s Proctor Redfern f ave bee-- ..::ec to i yes-:ga'e ^e -a ..e :.ne anc and -.t - Part of the firm's goal is to decide on fature uses for the land, a consideration that Van Kempen says is the responsibility of Pickering and Durham Region and should not be part of the federal government's mandate. "It seems like what they're doing is some land use planning and that's not a federal matter," he said. "It would be like me talking about the GST. The areas of responsibility are very clear here." Van Kempen, who is also the town's representative on the Metropolitan Toronto and Region Conservaticn Authority, c�zd Pickering has to be involved -�e decision-making process 'o --::e future of the lard. "We need input (into the process). We should also be :), -active and not just sit back a7c! wait for their response." "Pickering should be more aciveiy inwhred in the land use .ss,:es as to whether the lands are best suited for agricultural, o sing open space or an .: di;strial park,' he added. "The municipality and the region should be actively examining the potential of acquiring the lards themselves from the federal government. These lands will represent tremendous potential in years to come." Van Kempen is also upset that the MTRCA was not consulted and moved at a recent MTRCA meeting that the authority "review the federal government proposal' to dispose of its surplus airport lands. Ve were never notified or included and that seems very strange. ft's environmentally sensitive land and we've got to be involved.

The Crown Corporation provides loans to small and medium-sized businesses. Chartered banks are historically more selective to whom they loan money during tough times but the FBDB, said area branch .manager Dan Corcoran, are more willing to take a chance on a gooc idea. "We're different in that we're more of a high-risk (bank) than the chartered banks," he said recently from his Oshawa office. "The chartered bank's mandate is to provide a return on their investment to their shareholders, whereas our mandate is simply to break even." The FBDB has to bonrow the money to lend it to their clients so the rates they charge are about one point higher than chartered banks. If the company is extremely high risk, the interest rate on the loan would be a little higher still, Corcoran said. Corcoran's district covers Durham Region, as well as Peterborough, Victoria and Northumberland counties. The FBDB provided loans to entrepreneurs totalling $9.5 million in the region last year, affecting 1,800 jobs, with $2.8 million going to businesses in the Pickering and Ajax area.

"Almost half the loans we made to clients last year were for financing, the purchase of land, buildings, machinery and equipment," said Frank Reiter, a FBDB vice-president, in a press release. "We also continued to provide a large number of working capital loans to help small and medium-sized businesses to improve their cash flow positions." Refinancing loans were also in demand, Reiter added, allowing business people to restructure their debt obligations to take advantage of business opportunities this year. The bank also held 890 workshops and seminars throughout the province which were attended by approximately 15,000 potential clients, Including more than 700 from the local area. These offered a wide variety of business training programs covering general :management, marketing, finance, personnel and starting a business, as well as counselling assistance. "We learned that many business owners and managers need continued training and camselling 0 they are to make the best use of their resources and ensure the future growth and prosperity of their businesses," Reiter explained. "We continue to see increased awareness among the business community of the importance of training not only for business owners, but for their employees as weIl."

Trips and ho#el 4 -- Black Centre receives $17,000 grant By Glenn Hendry It's one step at a time for Pickering's Barbara Black Centre. The centre, forced to close its doors last month because of a lack of funding, re -opened Feb. 1 for after-school programs only. The next piece of good news came last week with the announcement from the Ministry of Citizenship's Anti -Racism Secretariat that the centre had been awarded $17,145 to provide a youth outreach. worker. Roger Thompson will work four days a week with the youth council (student representatives from area high schools) to develop an anti -racist project, such as a play or workshop. Catherine Walker, the president of the board of directors at Barbara Black, said the board will have some input but Thompson and the youth council will make the final decision on the makeup of the project. "We're not going to dictate what kind of event it's going to be. The project will be whatever the young people think is best," Walker told The Bay News. Part of the grant will help visible minorities develop better work skills. Walker said she still hopes to restart other recreational and social programs at the centre, as well as their number one priority — obtaining funding from the ministry of Health to operate a youth health centre. But one step at a time, she said. "Right now we want to get Roger started on the youth outreach program," she explained. "Well build on that and then well work on getting our other programs started again " A bingo fundraiser for the centre is still planned for Feb. 26 at the Top Rank Bingo Hall in Pickering.

My friend Gloria and I were just leaming to play tennis and had made plans to meet at the courts. It was a hot, humid Saturday afternoon as I walked the several city blacks from my home to the tennis courts, wearing a long skirt over my shorts. The skirt was necessary for it was considered improper to wear shorts on the street. In fact, a bylaw recently had been passed forbidding such attire in public. In the club house Gloria and I removed our skirts and sauntered out to the courts. reluctant as novices, yet eager to play. We prac- tised our serves then attempted rallying. But we became increasingly embar- rassed when our tennis balls were continuously returned from the next court by two young men who were hav- ing a serious match. I was surprised then when one of the fellows (the tall, fair-haired one with the twinkling blue eyes and the bronze tan) asked d we would like to play dou- bles. Gloria jumped at the offer. She later told me she had her eye on the dark, stocky fellow. I was too shy in those days to say "boo" to a goose. The boys, Don and Ron, proceeded to gime us some pointers. We were grateful for their advice and over- whelmed by their knowl- edge. We played until dusk when the boys offered to walk us home. Gkxia and Don went in one direction, Ron and I in the other. D, 4W always bemoaned my own red hair and freckles). He seemed to enjoy telling me about himself. He had travelled — had worked on the boats on the Great Lakes and had gone overseas with the 48th Highlanders during the war. Ahkeys a good listener, I was impressed. I came from a small family — just my mother and younger sister — and led a quiet, uneventful life. I admired this talented man who had travelled the world and seemed capable of fan- tastic feats. I was nearly home when he took my hand. I felt the gaze of passers-by. I knew I was blushing. Did he notice the rapid rise and fall of my blouse? But by the time we reached my veran- da my hand felt quite at home in his. Then I remembered my skirt. I had left it in the chat house. I had walked home in my shorts. I could have been arrested. All he said was, "Why cover those lovely legs?' I was hooked. Today, 46 years, three children, five grand- children and many remarkable feats later, I still see the little -boy grin, the dimple, the twinkle in his eye. I admire more than ever the man who once strong, active and robust, now (after undergoing open- heart surgery) is a semi -invalid who has accepted his lot and seeks to accomplish as much as he can in a day—i ga sh,,e,,d, repairing a l, wa&ing our faucet, swimming the length of a hasp been a dogs - It without trouble, heartache or despair, and our passion may have waned over the years, but our love is strong, deep, steadfast and everlasting.

But it's a great deal more difficult to achieve such a combination when it comes to constructing a home. Still, there are a select few who dare to try and live up to that elusive axiom — developers like Melody Homes, for instance. Since it first appeared on the new homebuying scene two years ago, Liberty Village in Bowmanville was a leading example of how much could be had for so little. Thisprojected 800 -home community thrived on the principle of offering buyers plenty of choices at prices that were truly affordable. The latest phase of Liberty Village continues that enviable trend. For as little as $99,900 you can now purchase a great looking, detached, link home on a 30 -ft. lot. In addition, there are three different models to choose from and buyers can 'mix and match' from a number of design plans to create a tailored home design. 'I believe $99,900 is among the lowest prices around for a comparable home,' said Saverio Montemarano of Melody Homes. 'Through our past experience, we're found that many people like to individualize and tailor their new homes.' Judging by past popularity, Melody Homes might well be preparing to build a lot "We're Serious About Your Fitness" of these great detached link homes. Currently, more than 300 families live in Liberty Wage. The obvious reason why it has become such a popular community has everything to do with quality and value. This is a neighborhood that isn't simply a carbon -copy of homes that look exactly the same. Liberty Village boasts a variety of home models and styles that range from standard 2 -storey houses to uniquely -styled raised bungalows — all with individually - tailored touches. In addition to the $99,900 detached links, Liberty Village also features an attractive fully detached single on a 40 -ft. lot — for an incredible:119,900. In keeping with Melody Homes' attention to individual tastes, there are a total of eight different floor plans and literally hundreds of options to choose from. 'It's basically up to your imagination,' Montemarano said, explaining buyers have a 'say in the eventual look of their homes. o assist a qualified purchaser in today's economy, Melody Homes is giving, on closing of the deal, 52 gift certificates valued at $100 each (a $5,200 value) from a leading grocery chain. In addition, the first 10 qualified purchasers also receive a 'mystery dream gift' which can be seen at the sales office valued at $4,000 (not appliances). Plans are also going ahead for an attractive community park in Liberty Village. It will include a large baseball diamond, playing area for youngsters and an elegant gazebo.
