"PATHETIC TOTAL "
Local professionals not helping United Way, says lamTer
By Peter Wolchak
Many of Ajax and Pickering'
s most afiiuent profes,iena5 are a Hong t ose doing he
leas; to support the United Way.
So says Pickering lawyer Michael Head, who told The Bay News during a recent
interview that the United Way contributions by local professionals are "pathetic."
"The most highly -paid members of this community have ignored the needs of a
greater nu.:.ber of atzers," he said. "In terms o` giving at horse — where these
people take money out of the comms mity — there has been an abysmal response."
Head was a -ne nber of the United Way campaign team from 1959 to 1991. He
was responsible for the professional division that includes doctors• lawyers, der,"sts,
accountants, chiropractors, optometrists, opticians, pharmacists and veterinarians.

New Ajax CAO
a "change agent"
By Glenn Hendry
of innotiawe ideas, a positive attitude and unbridled enthusiasm are the
dualities required by a town administrator, then it appears the Town of Ajax
iias found Its man.
In Barry Malmsten, who began his new post as chief administrative
officer (CAO) yesterday, Ajax has found a progressive, aggressive and
dung -ho innovator who is pumped to shake things up in his newest
:municipal challenge.
-Most people say I'm enthusiastic,
-yeah. I care passionately about what I
do," Malmsten said last week from his
old office at the Pittsburgh Township
municipal hall, just across the
Cataraqui River from Kingston, Ont.
"Some people even say I'm a t .
cheerleader- But I pump everybody up
;Qcar S2 I like (my staff) to get excited
Ax)ut their jobs and perform to their
potential.—
His philosophy certainly worked
:,:hen it came time to choose a
,uccessor to past -CAO Dave Low, '
who had held the post for 20 years. Barry Malmsten
Malmsten beat out 70 other New Ajax CAO
applicants.
"it's safe to say Barry caught the attention of everybody with his strong
personality, very progressive thinking and aggressive style," said Ajax
Mayor Jim Witty. "He will challenge members of our staff to think of
innovative ways to do things:'
Some of that innovation can be found in his ideas on getting town staff
involved in decision-making. This year, Pittsburgh Township paid out more
than $700 to each staff member as a Christmas bonus for employee ideas

Council set to slash 1994 budget
By Dan McLean
A preliminary 1994 budget
report by Pickering town staff
shows a 4.9 per cent increase,
or $704,000, over last year's
total.
The report, issued to town
councillors late last month, will
be used as the framework -for
budget discussions set to take
place during meetings at town
hall on Jan. 13 and 14.
While the 4.9 per cent
increase would represent an
additional $22 more annually
for the average residential
property taxpayer (on a home
assessed at $25.000), council
seems determined to
completely eliminate any hike.
A one per cent tax hike
represents approximately
j 1 15.000 in net town
expenditures and about $5 to
the average residential propertti
owner.
Pickering Mayor Wayne
Arthurs said he believes paring
down the budget to reflect no
tar increase shouldn't be too
difficult.
'1 think its readily achievable,
but council has to make some
significant decisions to find the
do0ars," Arthurs told The Bav
News this week.
A "rule of thumb" will be to
maintain operating costs for
town departments at 1993
levels. "Where that's
achievable, it is certainly the
desired direction," he said.
The staff report, to a large
degree, reflects that mandate.
Most departments will have to
work with the same — and in
some cases less — financing in
1994.
Treasury services, for
instance, are budgeted for
$705,000 compared to
$711,000 in 1993.
Information services are
targeted for $566,700
compared to $571,600 in
1993 Public works are
budgeted for $1.669,000
compared to last year's
$1,745,000 total. The towns
library services has an
earmarked budget amount of
$2.757.000 — approximately
$60,000 less than a year ago.
However, there are some
increased costs and new
expenses. Start with a
$550.000 shortfall in provincial
Raiding — money that will have
to be made up by the town.
Municipal elections this year will
cost the town $99,000.
Employment equity will cost
$61,000. Then there's the
millions that could conceivably
be spent on a legal battle to
oppose another Pickering
dump and shut down Brock
West.
In terms of the preliminary
budget, staff have provided
increases to the public transit
allotment from $2.763,000 to
$2.530,000. Purchased
services rise from $211,000 to
$1.57.000. Fire protection is
projected to cost an additional
$155,000.
Arthurs, for one, will be
looking at budget increase areas
to finding savings.
"I want to have a very good
look at our public transit," he
said, explaining that taxpayers',
in 1994 should not be bearing
the cost for more town services.
Town ,corks ,vill be another
place hell scnitinize closely..
In terms .,t the prelninary'
projections offered by staff,
Arthurs said he is pleased with
their work, so far.
'*Im quite satisfied with the
budget being presented to us
(by staff)," he said. 'Tm very
pleased, actually.**

Study aims to revitalize west Pickeringlocation
By Dan McLean
Call it a neighborhood that is
a diamond in the rough.
It's that area in Pickering
bounded by Highways 2 and
401 to the north and south, and
Dixie Road and Liverpool Road
to the west and east. in the
passage of time it has become
part of the town's central core.
For years, this stretch of west
Pickering has been an under-
utilized industrial section.
But town planners and a
group of neighborhood retailers
hope to change all that.
Consultants Victor Lind and
Colborne Architectural Group of
Toronto are conducting a land -
use review on behalf of the
town. In the words of town
planning manager Catherine
Rose, the area "offers a lot of
potential."
"We don't have a lard -use
plan at this point," Rose said
during an interview with The
Bay ,News. "It's sort of a lost
opporwnity if we don't try and
capitalize on it."
"We wart to create a mixed -
ase neighborhood and recognize
that (existing) landowners have
3n interest, too. I think the area
.an provide an alternative
.ocation for specialized
commercial uses.
"It makes sense for this block
to be part of the towns centre,"
Vidor Lind added.
It's a matter of what Rose
describes as "adding life" to the
neighborhood. The task is to
figure out how to make the
location more accessible to
traffic and determine what types
of development would be most
appropriate in order to inject
new life into the area.
Since late spring 1993,
private consultants, hired by a
group of area businessmen, have
been studying the area in the
hope of sparking an eventual
revitalization. In September, the
first part of a three-phase study
was completed. It included a
background report and
recommendations regarding
preliminary !and uses and road
patterns.
Phase 2, expected to be
completed by February, wil!
outline a preferred iand-use
plan, with road patterns, and a
preliminary set of urban design.
guidelines. Phase 3 will finalize
W

Pa rbcs
these guidelines and is expected
to be released in April or May.
The impetus for conducting
the land -use study was provided
by Lind who represents a group
of approximately six area
businessmen. He approached
the town in February 1993.
The group's goal is to encourage
and allow fo- more retail
comme-c:al business in the area.
Lind offered a partnership
deal — suggesting the
businessmen put up a total of
530,000 for a consultant's study
if the town, in turn, put in a
share as Weil. The town
contributed $10,000 towa-ds
the effort.

Rose said town planners hope
to introduce zoning that will
allow a more wide-ranging use
mix, greater development
intensity, and additional road
connections from the area's
interior to Highway 2.
"One of the things that would
help is to introduce a residential
neighborhood,” she said,
explaining that component
would support area retail and

It's budget time
Happy New Year and bring on the town
budget.
Pickering councillors have already received a
comprehensive report from town staff detailing
the facts and figures of the 1994 budget and
will gather as a group during what's expected
to be marathon discussions on Jan. 13 and 14.
The toughest part may be over since staff
have sliced and whittled the 1994 budget down
to a mere 4.9 per cent increase (S704,000)
over 1993.
If the treasury department's report were to
be endorsed today it would mean approximately
$22 more a year for the average Pickering
residential taxpayer (the owner of a S25,000
assessed property). A reasonable enough total.
However. Mayor Kayne Arthurs has said that
council will shoot for no increase at all. We
suggest that, with a little creativity and frill -
chopping, a reduced tax bill might be within the
realm of possibility.
A quick glance at a brief synopsis of staffs
budget projections shows a few places where
savings can be achieved right off the bat.
Let's start with account 2113 earmarked
Council. Without knowing the specific details,
it's enough to realize this budget item has
increased from $181,770 in 1993 to
$186,173 in 1994. At least hold the line on
this amount — whatever it is — to the 1993
rate.
Then pare it down even further. Save
$14,000 by simply eliminating ridiculous
conference expense provisions for every
member of council. Get rid of the $3,000
allotments each for councillors Maurice Brenner
and Rick Johnson for car telephones, a $650
telephone expense for councillor Eileen Higdon
and S600 for a telephone pager for councilor
Enrico Pistritto.
Account 2126 Purchased Services sees an
increase from $211,150 to $257,500 —
merely a higher provision, it's explained. This
definitely deserves a closer look
There are a couple of new 1994 expenses
-that seem curious. These include $180,000 for
"reskilliing" and a $155,000 expense that is
defined as "wage adjustments not required." It
will be interesting to see what council does with
;these items.
It will cost the town more than $99,000 to
!hold municipal elections this fall — money well
spent in the minds of some.
To their credit, town councillors have
eliminated increases for the town's share of
property taxes for the past two years. It
shouldn't be extremely difficult to make it three
in a row.

Miracle strike now in 7th week
By Peter Wolchak
Fifty local employees of
Miracle Food Mart are entering
the 48th day of a bitter strike
against the Great Atlantic and
Pacific Tea Co., the parent
company which owns Miracle,
Dominion and A&P grocery
stores.
Ontario members of the
United Food and Commercial
Workers Union walked out Nov.
19 to protest wage and job cuts.
Locally, the action shuts down
the Miracle Food Mart store in
Ajax.
At a Dec. 10 meeting,
approximately 80 per cent of
union members rejected the
company's latest offer which
included the loss of 700 jobs
and a $2 an hour pay cit for full
and part-„.rne workers. There
have been no further
negotiations.
The long strike has mean, a
sparse Christmas and a :ot of
worries for workers walking the
picket line. Ajax resident
George Thistel receives -�90 a
week »n strike pay. Combined
with his wife's part-time job they
%ppor, four children.
But he could not afford the
company's proposed pay cut.
” 1 need to make a living for
my family," Thistel, a
department manager, said in an
interview. 'Two dollars an hour
works out to over $4,000 a
year. We have four kids. We
can't afford it."
The main concern for Thistel,
however, is job security. "Many
of us have been in the business
for 15-20 years. We want to
make sure we're here in the
future."
One factor eroding job
security, according to Thistel, is
an employee limit included in
A&P's last offer. Each store
would be required to have only
one frill -time employee for every
$20,000 in sales. A store that
sells $100,000 in merchandise
would employ five full-timers.
"If we have 10 people
working in a store, five get cut,"
said Thistel.
Another major change
proposed by the company would
allow outside sales staff to stock
shelves. Under the proposal,
employees of Coca-Coia or
Hostess, for example, would
stock their products in the
stores.
"This would take more jobs
away from us," Thistel said.
"The company wants other
people to do their work for
them, instead of paying their
own employees."
A&P is working to cut costs
because sales are substantially
lower than those of Loblaws, a
main competitor. Thistel
sympathizes with the company,
but feels its solutions are
inappropriate.
"Cuts usually start at the
bottom — with us," he said.
"A&P hasn't caught up with the
changing trends of the
marketplace. People bought
differently in the 1980s. They
now buy in bulk and A&P isn't
progressive enough to catch the
trend. Thev've mismanaged
themselves badly and they're
making us the scapegoats."
The strike continues into its
seventh week with the two sides
seemingly far apart. Workers
picket A&P and Dominion,
stores, whose employees are
under contract until June,
hoping to pressure
management.
A&P spokesperson Bi'.
She :e would not comment or

Board at the time of his death.

Bill McLean
Former Ajax Mayer
spoke volumes about his
leadership qualities. There was
never a job too large or too
small for Bill McLean and it was
those qualities that earned hire
the nickname Boss, recalled
former Ajax regional councillor
Joe Dickson.
"He was mayor during &fficuh
times, in terms of development,'
he said. "But he was strong for
residents rights yet fair with the
building and development
industry. He was so sharp and
everyone respected his
leadership."
McLean had a special
attachment to HMS Ajax, the
British ship for which the town
is named. The ship was
involved in the Battle of the
River Plate, the first great naval
battle of the Second World War
and it was McLean who
obtained the bell of the HMS
Ajax that rings before each
council meeting.
McLean strived to ensure
Ajax residents remembered the
crew of the ship. He started the
tradition of planting a tree to
honor each former crew
member who visited the town.
McLean also had a special
place in his heart for the library,
the Ajax -Pickering General
Hospital, local service
organizations and his church.
Regional Councillor Roger
Anderson remembered the
former mayor as the most
dedicated person he ever knew.
"He was the first mayor I ever
worked for and he was the most
helpful person I ever worked
for," he said. "Fie will be sorely
missed by a lot of people."
McLean began his political life
as a school tn:stee and reeve of
Pickering Village before
becoming regional counr.9or of
Ajar in 1974 He took on his
library board post upon his
retirement as mayor in 1988.
He leaves his wife of 36
years, Joyce, and their three
children.
POLICE BEAT
Thieves rustle
cowboy boots'
Thieves with a penchant for western wear
smashed their way into an Ajax store early Tuesday
morning, making off with approximately 40 pairs of
cowboy boots.
Durham Regional Police said the suspects broke
into Western Ranch store on Westney Road by
smashing the front door glass. The incident was
reported at 2 a.m.
A police spokesman said known suspects are being
investigated but no arrests have been made.
An Ajax family, not yet settled into their new
home, have already been the victims of a robbery.
The family, who recently bought the house on
Bray Drive, came home just after midnight on Dec.
30 to find boxes of computer equipment stolen. The
homeowners were still unpacking and many of their
belongings were still in boxes.
Durham Region Police said thieves forced their
way in through a side window. A footprint
impression was found outside.

A classic story of successful art
It's a classic story at Classic
Arrangements.
Hard work, great customer service
and a love for art have turned this
Ajax framing and limited -edition print
emporium into a classic success story.
That, and Trisha Romance, the
noted painter of nostalgic family life
whose work has captured the
imagination of Canadians. Limited
edition prints by Romance outsell all
others combined, making the Niagara -
on -the -Lake artist truly the secret of
success for Classic Arrangements.
"She is still the focus," said Derek
Gulab, who, with wife Radica, owns
Classic Arrangements. "Her work is
very good. It's very tasteful and it's
family oriented. Her paintings reflect
back on people; it reminds them of
something in their past."
Gulab adds that he sees his
business, not just a place to make
money, but also as a community
service, especially in the area of art
appreciation.
'We encourage people to buy art —
not just for the investment — but
because it brings joy. We'd like
customers to purchase for the love of
it.
Classic Arrangements also sells
limited -edition prints — framed or
unframed — by other well-known
artists such as Robert Bateman, James
Lumbers, Bill Saunders and Les Tait.
But if Trisha Romance is the four-
year old store's bread and butter,
custom -framing is the Classic
Arrangements standby.
Service and quality are key for both
custom -framing and art sales, Gulab
says. Competitive prices are also a
must, he added.
"Our goal for 1994 is to offer
complete customer satisfaction. And
we'll match any price out there."
Gulab, who credits the goodness of
God for the success of Classic
Arrangements, also sells art items
such as posters and book prints, and
regular prints. But most of the art
business is in signed -and -numbered
limited edition prints.
Classic Arrangements is located
inside Harwood Mall. For more
information call 427 -1663.
CLASSIC Alrr: Derck Gulab, owner of Classic Arrangements in the Harwood mall,
displays a popular Trisha Romance print.
