During two days of discussion last week, local politicians shaved $643,000 from the mill rate budget projected by staff. The end result means ratepayers wont have to dole out more for the town's share of taxes — which represents approximately 20 per cent of the total till — in 1994. Out of the total $33 million net budget, approximate); 5 million must be raised through the local mill rate. The budget is still subject to council approval, expected to be given on Feb. 7. Council -in -executive -committee will reconsider the current budget at its meeting on Monday. Most town departments this year will have to get along with the same, or in many cases, less money than they were allotted in 1993. Among the biggest cuts were the capital budget for roads and the public transit operating budget.

Power Workers Union President John Murphy said during current contract iegotiationns Ontario Hydro is looking to slash up to 25 per cent of salaries, )enefits, or workers from its 17,000 membership. Hydro is also seeking to split the Power Waken Union into a number of smaller bargaining units. "We got off to a rocky start," Murphy toll The Bay News. "We were realty taken aback by the extent of the management agenda." The two sides met briefly in October, but talks broke down before agendas could even be exchanged. They tried again Jan. 7 and talks began Jan. 10. The union was given a negotiating ace earlier this month when members voted ovenuhelmingiy (91.1 per cent) in favor of strike action if the contract talks are not resolved. Ontario Hydro is expected to make its final offer in late March. The union will be in a legal strike position April 1. Hydro communication spokesman Ted Gruetzner said negotiations are still in the early stages. Both sides have time to resolve any outstanding issues, he said. "They only got down to brass tacks on Monday and they're still talking, so that's a positive sign," he said. "There's still a long way to go." Gruetmer said the company wants to negotiate separate collective agreements to 'better meet the specific needs" of the different, semi- autonomous business units in Ontario Hydro. "Our contention is, the way the company is broken down, we need separate agreements," he said There are fora units within Ontario Hydro representing nudear, hydro- electric, fossil (goal and oil plant), and grid (transmission distribution) workers. Murphy said in November that management was attempting to break up the union because "a shattered workers union would make Hydro much Continued on Page 2 .

Public comment on airport lands By Glenn Hendry Ontario Riding MP Dan McTeague says it's time the public had a say in the future of the Pickering airport lands.

The task force will invite comment from the public to "hammer out a strategy" for the future of the north Pickering lands. "The purpose is to ensure that all interested parties have real and meaningful input in determining the ultimate outcome of these lands," McTeague said. McTeague's announcement comes after his government, under pressure from the province, decided to abandon the sale of some 5.100 acres expropriated in 1972 for a future airport. The former Tory government announced an impending sale in August, but the Liberals scrapped the plan last week. The provincial government, having already created the Rouge River Park and an agricultural preserve near the airport lands, vowed to restrict the property to farming or existing uses if the sale went ahead. McTeague said it's time the issue was settled — "the sooner the better" — on a "very valuable public asset." "The quicker this issue is put to bed, the better," he said. "It's been 20 years waiting around and enough is enough." McTeague said its important that the public be allowed comment on the issue, noting that in the previous process there was "just a whiff" of public consultation. "What's important here is the public input and the balls in our court now." I ------------COUPON ------------, WEDDING FLOWERS ;I GETTING MARRIED IN 1994?

Gruetzner said the fact that the union went to members for a strike mandate before negotiations began didn't bother him. He noted that the practice is common with other unions "as part of the bargaining process." "I m still confident we can reach some sort of agreement," Gruetzner said. Murphy also expressed optimism that both sides will be able to agree on a contract, adding that the 91.1 per cent strike vote is an extra bargaining tool for the union. "I'm hopeful we can resolve this... the real bargaining hasn't even begun," tie said. "I think there Mll be some posturing (by management) in the early stages, but with this kind of mandate, I think well be able to get a good collective agreement." One stumbling block in negotiations might be the announcement Monday that Ontario Hydro lost $3.5 billion last year — one of the biggest losses in Canadian corporate history. Murphy and the rest of the union team met with Ontario Hydro chairman Maurice Strong that afternoon.

During budget discussions last week, local politicians agreed to endorse a recommendation proposed by Mayor Wayne Arthur to trim more than $200,000 from the public transit operating budget — to a bottom line of $900,000. It will be up to staff to determine where the cuts will be made. The decision must still be ratified in council where the budget is expected to be approved on Feb. 4. According to staff, the decision will mean drastically reduced town bus service during off-peak hour. However, most politicians seemed prepared to live with that consequence, since transit use beyond morning and afternoon "rush hours" is virtually non- existent. "I dori t think it's practical, in my view, to run empty buses," said Ward 2 Local Councillor Eileen Higdon, a member of the town's transit committee. She said bus service should be directed to "where the needs are and not wasting taxpayer dollars to serve a few people." Executive Director of Operations Tom Quinn suggested bus service should be concentrated during "rush hours." He recommended completely removing late night service and drastically diminishing off-peak hour service, saying the cost factor to maintain these is "horrendous." Currently, five buses serve the town during off-peak hours. Tl:e budget reduction will trim off-peak service to one bus that only travels along main streets throughout the town. The bus route would take 60 minutes to complete. "People will have to walk a block or two to get to a bus," Quinn said. "We will not be going off the beaten track." While staff did not propose a fare increase in its budget report, politicians have directed them to at least consider such a move by examining the revenue and expenditure side of public transit. Town Manager Tim Sheffield said the operations side of public transit must be closely scrutinized. adding that fare increases should be considered as a last resort." The transit system has worked well for the past 10 to 15 years, but is experiencing problems, the town manager said. It's getting to the point where the community is outgrowing the system," he said. "The system needs to be adjusted." It was noted that fares paid in 1993 experienced a $400,000 shortfall, largely due to lost revenue from the public school board who no longer provide bus passes for students. Ward 1 Regional Councillor Maurice Brenner warned that the separate school board may follow suit, according to a source he called .potentially reliable." However, staff said they have not been made aware of any change to the separate school board's current practice. More sidewalk construction in '94 • From Page 1 considered. Staff eventually pared the total to 21 — at a cost of $3.7 million. That number was further reduced during last week's budget meetings to 14 projects which are estimated to cost approximately $1.4 million. The reconstruction and road improvement projects endorsed List week include approximately $200,000 worth of work on Sanok Drive, $186,000 on Glendale Drive (plus $158,000 for storm sewers), $170,000 for Concession 5 at Brock Road, $115,000 for railway crossing gates on Woodview north of Twyn Rivers, and $86,000 for resurfacing at Spruce Hill Road. Public transit off-peak service vvill be drastically reduced as a resuit of a $200,000 cut to the operating budget. Local commuters will be forced to walk farther to bus stops and endure brger waits for service. Staff have been directed to trim $100,000 from the roads operating budget, $124,000 from public works operating budget, $50,000 from information services and $44,000 from the planning budget. There will be more sidewalk construction this year as local politicians allocated an additional $153,000 in the account for various projects. An additional $25,000 was provided for compost collection. Empbyment equity and this fall's municipal elections are among the new budgeted items which must be accounted for this year. The town must spend approximately $99,000 for the November election. However, in the future, the cost of municipal elections will be spread over three year. Councillors added an additional $100,000 to the purchased services account for a total of $350,000. This money, coupled with the previous years $350,000 total, is targeted for an expected legal battle against the Interim Waste Authority and that government agency's proposal to build a dump in Pickering. Most councillors expressed a strong sense of satisfaction with the tone of this year's budget discussions. There was clear agreement among the major issues. Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs congratulated local politicians for their efforts. "it was a very, very productive budget process," he said.

Because tires are more reliable than ever, \r tend to forget about their maintenance. So some of us may drive. day after day, failing to check the tiresair pressure and their general condition. However, \•inter can cause more severe problems to arise if the tires are not maintained properly. For those of us who are bravelN preparing for another Canadian winter. BFGoodrich tire specialists offer the following ad%ice. Thee suggestions will help provide top winter per- formance and more enjoyable driving. driving The right tire pressure The air pressure in tins clLcreases as temperatures get colder. Consequently. it is recommended that the inflation pressure be checked following each major trartsition in ambient temperature. Tire pressure should normally he checked when tires are cold (before they have been driven on). The importance of positioning Optimum winter performance is achieved through the use of the same tN pe of tire on all four \boob. There- fore, for front or rear wheel dn%c can. winter tires on all four wheels are the optimum solution for winter driving. Storage The ideal war to store tire% during the winter is to put them in plastic hags and place them in a coxil dry location. LET'S TALK... TIRES AM The Ideal Choice The various \inter tires on the market respond to the range of winter climatic conditions: your BFGoodrich dealer can help you choxrce the type of tire which is hest suited to your specific needs. For example. the TRAiLMAKER PLUS provides deep biting sno\ traction for heavy snow conditions. The RADIAL T/A WR also provides traction in deep snow and is S speed - rated for continuxrs use up to I W km/h. And for the high-performance cars. the COM PT/A HR %1&S is designed to provide snow traction and a high level of handling while still being H speed - rated for continu tis use up to '_ 10 km/h. Certain types of tire. perforin better on certain types of vehicles: light truck.. cars, four-wheel drive vehicles, etc. An authorized BF(:o odrich dealer can be of great assistancc in helping you make your choice. Balancing When it come% to installing tires, it is important to make sure that they are properly balanced. Unbalanced tires can cause steering problems. vibration and premature wear of the tires. Spinning Excessive spinning of your wheels can he dangerous. On cars with automatic transmission. the rotation speed of a spinning tire can be twice that indicated on the speedometer. The speed of rotation could therefore surpass the tolerance limits of the tire and cause it to disintegrate. When stuck in snow, the best way to get out is to rock the car back and forth: if the rhythm is smooth. this method is easier on your tires, as well as *your transmission. The driver alternates between forward and reverse gears. Here again, respect the re- commendations set by the car manufacturer. tialre caps In winter. valve caps can he a source of concern: the repeated effect of freezing and thawing can initiate air loss from the valve. An important piece of advice: use "air tight" valve caps and make sure that they are suitably tightened. ice accumulation In winter, snow and ice often accumulate where you can't see them. inside the wheel or under the hubcaps. This accumulation of snow or ice can cause severe vibration and loss of control. A routine check is all it takes to prevent this problem and its dangerous consequences. After all, we should never forget that winter driving is a matter of tires. Go t)d driving. Two winter tires or four? (NC)—We tend to believe that the all - season tires have eliminated the need for winter tires. The fact is that we still have a sizeable percentage of the Canadian population that remains faithful to the annual switch -over to winter tires. For these drivers. there's the old question: "Should I pro on two snoN• tires or jour` According to the experts at MICHELI%, there's really only one answer when you think what your snow tires are supposed to be doing for you. Putting winter tires --or M+S tires as they are called in the business (for Mud and Snow} --on all four wheels is definitely the best choice. But there's a question here of what level of per- formance you want for your car, what you can afford, and what your priorities are. The driver of any performance car who wants the best winter -performance available buys four of the best quality M+S tires. One of the fastest growing categories of new cars in Canada is the performance car. Many models use high Vertormance tires designed for summer use only. All -season tires are often not available in the same tire or wheel size. If you own one of these, you'll need four top quality snow tires such as MiCHELiN's XM+S3(X). One piece of advice from MICHELIN: if you do have to change over tires. have the work done at a reputable tire dealer. All MICHELIN dealers. for example, are independent tire professionals. They'll check your tires over carefully before you store them away for the winter. Another good idea, is to have your winter tires permanently mounted on extra wheels. It saves wear and tear and also labour costs each Spring and Fall.

AUTOMOTIVE S , Chrysler's newest bright light I CAA offers winter driving tips It earned rave reviews last year as a concept car and Chrysler Corporation is banking on a bright future from the first 1995 model they'll introduce this year. Say hello to Dodge Neon. Say hello to Automobile Magazine's car -of -the -year. The new Neon, a refreshing departure from the comogenized masses, simply giows with personality. With a base price of under $11,000, stye and qua# are not the only things differert about Neon. The car s^ones brigh''.v on a number of f;o-:._. A:: '`:ree models (sport, highline and base) come with a unique, cab - forward design for greater room, improved ride and handling, and better visibility. A new 2.0 -litre, 132 - horsepower, four -cylinder engine gives Neon plenty of pep. On the safety side, the car is the only sub -compact with dual air bags as standard equipment. Neon seats five comfortably, has ample headroom to go with nearly 90 cubic feet of interior space, and boasts an easy -to - read, easy -to -access wraparound cockpit. Neon is also one of the most environmentally friendly cars on earth, with coded recvclable parts, asbestos -free brake linings and non -CFC refrigerant air conditioning. To ensure Neon stands up to the test of time, Chrysler engineers put their test car through a record-setting four million miles in conditions as varied as Death Valley and the arctic tundra.

Skidding, difficult starts and trouble seeing or being seen can result when basic automobile maintenance is neglected. The following suggestions will help sweeten ^e winter driving season. • Switch early: Before the snow arrives, make sure your car is equipped with snow or all -season tires. Snow tires should be used in pairs on the dive wheels, front or rear. And remember to keep tires inflated properly. • Treasure chest: Some portant items to carry in the car during winter are a container of sand or kitty litter, small snow shovel, a combination ice -scraper and snow brush, flashlight, blanket, dN doth or paper towels, first- a:d kit, spray de-icer and auto c"-.:bmembers` ip card. • A visible difference: Danger must be seen to be avoided. Driving with a snow- covered windshield, windows, side -view mirrors or lights invites an accident. Clear windows, mirrors and lights with an ice scraper, brush or spray de-icer. Make certain windshield wipers and defrosters are in good working order and that washer reservoirs are filled with no -freeze windshield washer fluid. • Air it out: Dont let frigid temperatures tempt you into starting your car in a closed garage or idling your engine for long periods with the windows closed. Carbon monoxide, present in exhaust fumes, is almost impossible to detect and can be fatal when breathed in a confined area. • Antifreeze: Make certain cooling system antifreeze is mixed with an equal portion of water for maximurn protection. Flush and refill the cooling system every two years. Adding fuel system antifreeze to the gas tank will heip prevent frozen gas lines. Be aware gasoline antifreeze may cause an engine to run rough if water is present in the fuel tank. Keeping the gas tank at least half full also helps prevent freezing. • Key solution: Frozen door locks can be overcome by carefully heating the end of a key with a match or lighter. A squirt of de-icer spray is another quick method. Pouring heated water on a frozen lock is not recommended. • Still going: Cold weather is tough on batteries. At -18'C, a cars battery loses about 60 per cent of its strength. At a comparatively mild 0'C, a battery is 35 per cent weaker. Keeping battery terminals clean helps, but a load test performed by a qualified technician will help determine whether a cars battery is strong enough for winter starts. • Practice run. Using the car air conditioner for a few minutes every week this winter will keep the unit lubricated and prevent vital parts from drying out. -4-- _ _ ..rte, -, ...,.. �, ,, . - - _.. 6 E VILLAGE PLYMOUTH IN -Mf r DQ TL..

Peter Wolchak 17i0,WP"m Court, Unit 13, Pic Bring, Ontario LIR' 3E6 Job well done Congratulations to Pickering councillors for a job well done during two days of budget discussions last week. Local politicians showed surprising solidarity on major aspects of the budget and were clearly not afraid to make some tough decisions. The matter of public transit was a good example. It has become increasingly clear that bus service in town, during off-peak hours, is excessive, to sal the least. That fad paved the way for councillors to shave more than $200,000 from transit's operating budget and, by endorsement, face the consequences from the public. A gutsy call. There was agreement to protide initial staffing for the new Dixie Road and Finch Avenue firehall. The eventual choice by councillors was a compromise of sorts between providing a full staff complement or none at all. Another good decision. Councillors expressed agreement on the importance of preventing another dump in Pickering by allocating an additional $350,000 toward an expected legal battle with the Interim Waste Authority. The towns provision for the fight now boasts more than $700,000. And politicians made it clear they are ,prepared to spend even more from reserves. There were other significant cost paring measures. Operational account cuts included $100,000 from the road repair budget, $90,000 from fire protection services, $ 50,000 from general government information services and $44,000 from planning. Capital account chops included more than $800,000 from roads, $90,000 from information services, $20,000 from municipal garage and $15,000 from public works. f .- Among the most impressive aspects of the two-day budget scrum was a co- operative approach taken by local politicians on the important issues. While this congenial trend wasn't without the usual political posturing on minor aspects of the budget, it was dear from the outset that councillors were determined to agree on the things that really mattered. That in itself was a major accomplishment.

In fact, local politicians approved a $186.173 operating total for council — an amount that is higher than last year's $172,973 amount- The account is one of the few budgetary items that could see an increase this year. The provision for convention $12,000 convention expense stays expenses — equal to $2,000 for each of six council members, not including the mayor — remained intact despite attempts by some Politicians to reduce the allotment. Ward 2 Regional Councillor Kip Van Kempen proposed chopping the convention provision to $6,000. '1 think it sends the message out that we're trying to show some restraint," he told colleagues. Van Kempen added that regional council representatives don't need the local allotment since they are given a similar convention stipulation from Durham Region. Ward I Local Councillor Doug Wellman agreed that $12,000 is an excessive amount to place in the convention account since he, for one, has no intention of using his entitlement. "I'm not going anywhere," he said. 'Why load the thing up when we're not all going somewhere and spending 2,000 buck-' Van Kempen, Wellman and Ward 2 Local Councillor Eileer Higdon supported a move tc reduce the provision, but the motion was defeated. Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs argued that reducing the convention provision would not create a substantial saving. The $12,000 allotment is "really the appropriate figure to have available," he said. "We have traditionally under- spent the allocation and should be commended for that." "24 PIGKERING B 1nGET Five firefighters for Help is on the way for the new firehall at Dixie Road and Finch Avenue in Pickering. During budget discussions last week ceurcii;ors agreed to spent approximately S234.000 this year to hire five full-time firefighters. The crew will staff the town's newest firehall — Station 6. Assurr.ing that ouncil ratifies its budget ar,d :he refighters union agree to the =roposal, Station 6 saff would *:r work on July 1. In addition, the fire depdrtment will promote an existing member of staff to captain the new firehall. A total of four regular firefigh!e., and a captain would man the Dixie/Finch station during t' e day only, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. It's proposed that the five would work four days a weeK plus a rotating fifth day e.er�. h»h week. It was noted by Fire Chief Rick Pearsall that it will take approximately four months after final approval from council to staff the new firehall. Time is needed to issue employment notices, conduct interviews; medical examinations and fire*ter tests. In approving the six-month hiring, councillors rejected two other options. The first would have seen no staff hung this year white a second X1.5 or, option suggested bringing ;- a complete 12 ;er,;,n :ear new hall firefighters.

During budget discussions last week, councillors approved a $350,000 allocation for consultative and professional services — $100,000 more than an amount originally requested by staff. The $350,000, coupled with the account's existing $354,000, will provide more than $700,000 for legal and consultative expenses in an expected 1994 IWA battle. In addition, council members have indicated they are prepared to draw even more money for the fight from reserve accounts, if necessary. The town will also additional $350,000, bringing the total allocation to a potential $1 million -plus. "It's a responsible amount to have available to us," Mayor Wayne Arthurs told The Bay News after budget discussions last week. "We will have a responsible approach to the IWA initiative. We will act responsibly. We will do the best we can in a responsible fashion." The town's consultants have suggested a dump legal battle could total more than $2.4 million. Arthurs noted that, in 4 Wayne Arthurs al! likelihood, it wig be nt�c essary to draw from reserve accounts to supplement money set aside in the consulting service account. 'This budgetary source this year will not fund that activity (IWA fight)," said Arthurs. "Were trying to bump it up so consultative and professional services account) to help that funding. Taxpayers shouldn't be expected to front the cost in one year." Ward 2 Regional Councillor Kip Van Kempen had proposed adding an extra $150,000 to bring the 1994 provision, to $500,000. He reason+ the additional financial commitment would show that council is "determined to fight this." "1 think it wou!d help get support from the region," he said. "it will show we are putting our money where our mouth is." tie However, Ward 1 Loca Councillor Doug Wellman, fo one, expressed som reservation, saying he wa worried about "driving up a account that has millrat implications." of sources for the (extra) revenue we're going to need," Wellman said. "We've got the money elsewhere." Ward 3 Regional Councillor Rick Johnson said that additional funding could be drawn from reserves — a proposal that was eventually endorsed by councillors. Van Kempen also suggested that the issue of a dump battle be put to voters in the form of a referendum during the fall municipal election. Voters should be asked whether they want the town to fight the IrXA and how much financial resources should be committed to the battle, he said. Town Clerk Bruce Taylor confirmed that questions of that nature could be included on a ballot during the November vote without incurring any additional election costs. 1994 PICKERING BUDGET No library service reduction Despite a slightly lower budget and a significantly higher number of users, Pickering's public libraries will still be able to provide, maintain — and in some cases improve — service, says library board chafmnan David Fan: rgs last During budget meetu week, councillors approved a library operating budget totalling more than $2.7 million — app oknately $17,000 less than the 1993 allocation. According to chairman Farr, the library won't be seriously impacted by the slightly reduced budget. "We will be able to provide equal, and in some cases, better service," he told councillors. "You asked us for a responsible budget and we've given you one.,, Chief Librarian Sandytncur Cameron cored. 'There is no reduction of service at any site," he said, adding that, in fact, two branches will stay open for an additional hour each week. It was noted that circulation is up four per cent over the previous year. Pickering's libraries have more than 50,000 registered book borrowers, including a "substantial number" from Ajax. ... • The Town of Pickering will provide a helping hand for the Ajax and Pickering General Hospital- Councillors agreed to direct $25,000 from the 1994 budget to the hospital. In the past the town provided $500,000 towards the hospital's expansion. Last year, Pickering donated $4,000 towards the purchase of a hospital bed. Councillors have agreed to .allocate a provision to offset a 1994 Social Contract day in Local politicians endorsed a plan to keep aside $68,000 in a legal services account that can be used to keep staff at work on a mandated Social Contract unpaid day off. A total of five days in 1994 must be taken as unpaid time off by staff, effectively shutting down town services and administration. Keeping staff at work for a day costs $58,000. The money is essentially a salary provision for a town solicitor -- a new position that will not be filled in 1994. Town Manager Tim Sheffield explained that the staff position in the legal services area was allocated for, at a time when it was uncertain how the town administration would be restructured. "Now its simply an option to deal with the Social Contract," he said. "While the (provision) is there, it's not there for the purpose of hiring someone.. It's there for another purpose. Thisprovides us an opportunity to negotiate a further day of service." Sheffield added that money for that provision must come from a salary account. Ward 1 Local Councillor Doug Wellman was among those who agreed with the scheme. "Now we have an opportunity," he told colleagues who were reluctant to support the plan. "Don't cloud the issue by suggesting we're filling in a (staff position) that isn't supposed to be there." Wellman argued that most residents would support a plan to keep the town administration open for a Social Contract day. t .. t Tardy Pickering property taxpayers got a break of sorts. Town councillors rejected a move to increase the penalty for late tar payment from 9.5 per cent to 11 per cent. This despite the fact that all other municipalities in Durham Region impose a 15 per cent penalty on late tax payments. It was noted that 80 per cent of outstanding tax arrears are owed by residential taxpayers.
