The first phase of Ajax's newest shopping
centre win not be a mall after al, a plan that has
some town councilors upset.
Markborough Properties officials are billing
the Durham Centre's revised first phase as a
"power centre," complete with targe -selection
"category killer" stores. Several Ajax
councilors, however, want Markborough to kill
the idea. They're calling the new concept for
the shopping centre — an open concept plaza,
not an enclosed mall — a disappointment.
"A lot cs us weren't happy. We wanted a mall
on that site," said regional councillor Roger
Anderson.
Anderson said he knew of Markborough's
intention to revise their plans last month but the
development company didn't formaly announce
their new concept until a Feb. 28 executive and
development committee meeting.
Don Logie, Markborough's vice-president of
development (shopping centres), said the
original vision is only delayed, pointing out that
his firm hopes to start construction on the mall
concept in four to five years, during the second
phase.
Anderson said he hoped the town could get
some form of a guarantee from Markborough
that Durham Centre will eventually build a fufl-
fledged mall, although he admitted it would be
unlikely.
"I wish there was a way we could hold them
to those four or five years," he said. But (the
time frame) is subject to the economy."
Logie, who described the plaza as a "power
centre," explained that large -selection stores

Public school taxpayers to
save $200,000 over 3 years
Ajax will have to make do
with one less trustee after
November's municipal election.
The Durham Board of
Education decided Monday at a
special board meeting to slash
their tnistee rol by 25 per cent,
a move that will reduce Ajax's
representation to two trustees
and save pubk school taxpayers
$200,000 over the next three
years -
The vote passed 10-8 but met
considerable opposition from
some trustees, including Dwcan
Read of Ajax, the vice•dsas of
the board.
The interests of demoaacy
are best served the more people
are ki owed in the proem: he
told The Bay News. "We're
taming a pubk voice out of the
system and we've MQt the ability
of the board to respond to the
pubk"
Read pointed out that each
Ajax trustee will be representing
22,000 ratepayers after the
election.
The decision cuts the Ajax
and Whitby mWee components
from three to two. Scugog,
which is currently represented by
two testees, will now have one
member. Oshawa's ranks were
reduced from seven trustees to
five.
Voters in Pickering (three),
Brock (one) and Uxbridge (one)
wil not have their trustee totals
Education Minister Dave
Coohe had given school boards
the option of reducing thew
numbers prior to this year's
election and the Dwt m board
is the 13rd large Word to take
advoDrltage of the oppordu*.
Read, however, noted that
Cooke had been quoted as
saying that if school boards do
not reduce their numbers "we
may do it for you."
"I don't know what kind of
option that is," Read said.
Pickering trustee Louise Farr,
a former trustee chair, voted in
favor of the proposal, saying
that becase of recent staff and
service cutbacks, the move is
"reflective with what we are
required to do" throughout the
edwatiornl system.
She admitted the decision
means trustees will not be able
to deliver the same level of
SWAM to ratepayers.
'liiere's always more work to
be done; she said. .

(Ajax Transit hike
By Glenn Hendry
Ajax Transit riders will
have to pay more to use
the system this year after
town councillors — after
two meetings and
considerable debate —
approved five cent fare
hikes Monday night.
Transit director Terry
Barnett, asked during
budget talks to find an extra
$25,000 in revenue,
unveiled a proposal at last
week's budget advisory
committee meeting that
called for increases from
five to ten cents.
His proposal, which
would have generated more
than $28,000 in revenue,
was voted down by
committee members,
leaving the town in a
budget shortfall position.
That simply wasn't
acceptable to Ward 4
councillor Jim McMaster,
the fire and transit sub-
committee chairman.
McMaster warned his fellow
counciL'ors Monda,, that the
transit system u:.. :ace
service reducnor:�
don't come up with the
money.
He also hinted that a no
vote to a fare increase
would be an "easy way out,"
with a municipal election
coming in November.
"It's very easy to turn this
down, especially in an
election year, but this is a
business and should be run
like a business. It's the right
thing to do at the right
time," he said. "If you're
using the system you have
to help pay for it."
McMaster's counter-
proposal calls for a five -cent
across the board increase,
boosting the adult and
Handi-Trans fares to
$1.30. Student fares rise
to $1.05 and children and
senior fares jump to 55
cents. The Flag Bus fare
will now cost less for some
riders, changing from a
$1.25 flat fare to a normal
tariff.
The proposal will
generate approximately
$25,000.
McMaster noted that,
even .vith the increase.
Ajax Transit would still have
one of the cheapest fares in
the region.
The council decision was
not without some
dissension, however. Ward
1 Councillor Frank
Schaper, repeating
comments made during
budget talks, said raising
transit fares is akin to a tax
hike, something councillors
avoided for the first time
this year.
"There's no reason why
an increase is necessary at
all," he said. 'Vie have to
make do with what we
have."
Schaper gained an ally in
Ward 2 Councillor Scott
Crawford, who said he is
"not confident or
comfortable" with a fare
increase.
But Ward 3 Councillor
Steve Parish said council
budgeted for the extra
$25,000 so they must
follow through with the fare
increase or be accused of
weakness. '
The fare hikes are
effective Apr.;

"Its a different form of retail that we think will
attract people from all over the region," he said.
Costco Wholesale, a large warehouse -style
store, is already open for business in the mail.
Grocery giant Loblaws and the Zellers
department store chain are also signed up.
Ward 3 Councillor Steve Parish added his voice
to the discontent surrounding Markborough's
revised site plan for D irham Centre, calling the
new proposal a "big strip plaza-"
He gave notice Monday that he will ask council
to rescind their approval of Markborough's plan
at nerd weeks council meeting.
W also asked that no further plan for the site
be approved until the developer commits to
adding a theatre and entatunment complex to
the development, an idea Parish has been trying
to get off the ground for the Harwood Avenue -
Ba* Street area.
If we're going to get a cinema complex this
concept is the last best chance we have," he
said. "I want to make sure this component is
there."
Logie said his company is trying to attract a
suitable tenant to the mall —. Anderson
confirmed that Markborough is currently
negotiating with a major theatre company — but
adds that he has "nothing to report yet."
"We think it wound be a good addition ... and
we'd certainly like to put together an
entertainment complex," Logie said. "But we re
just not sure if we can do the deal."
Logie and town representatives will be
meeting today to discuss the issue, he added.

NGlenn
It's time for most ratepayers
to dance the dance of joy in
Durham after regional
councillors waltzed out of last
week's budget talks with a
document that calls for an
average tax cut of $2.
It's the first time taxes have
dropped in Durham since
regional government was
established 20 years ago.
Unfortunately, because of
recent changes in assessment,
some taxpayers — including
those in Ajax and Pickering —
will have to dance to a
different tune. Ajax
ratepayers will actually pay $5
more in regional taxes this
year while Pickering
ratepayers will shell out an
extra $2.
Oshawa taxpayers were the
big winners. Their regional
taxes will drop an average of
$9. Whitby's taxes will drop
$3 and the Clarington average
tax bill will decrease $1.
Taxes in Brock wig increase
$5 while Uxbridge and
Scum ratepayers will pay $2
more in 1994.
Finance conv*sioner Jack
Gar* agreed that it Wasn't
fair that some municipalities
will have to pay more in taxes
while others will see their
taxes stashed. But the budget
will be good news for most
ratepayers because most tax
bills will be down and most
services will be maintained, he
pointed out.
"It's an excellent budget as
far as the taxpayer is
concerned," he said.
The increases to Ajax and
Pickering could have been
worse, however. Regional
councillors headed into talks
with a tax freeze target but
tacked on $66,235 in
expenses to the $320 million
budget when they decided to
join the Canadian Federation
of Municipalities and help fund
Ontario Housing Services
Network.
But some politicians felt it
was zero increase or bust and
got under their target by first
killing a $500,000 reserve
fund established for hospital
capital expenses — moving the
money to a general account —

FREE CONSULTATIONS
and then raiding the amount.
The move to kill the hospital
fund just squeaked through the
council chamber, 14-13.
Oshawa councillor Dave
Conway said the region has to
support local hospitals and
called the $500,000
"negligible." Other councilloTs
saw the issue differently,
however, and didn't want to
start a precedent by giving
money to provincially funded
hospitals.
?here's no way the region
should be getting inwlved in
giving grants to hospitals. It's
a provincial responsibility,"
said Ajax Mayor Jim Witty,
who added that the region's
"no -grant policy" has been a
"savior" for the region.
Cuts in the welfare rolls —
the welfare budget will drop by
$1.7 million this year — and
staffing cuts at the region
helped Durham meet its tax
freeze target flus year.
The biggest loser in the
budget will be the police
department, with 45 jobs
being slashed through
attrition.

Food land opportunity
By Brenda Birinyi
Pickering's airport lams could
create "an opportunity of a
lifetime" for the town, says
community activist Fred Beer.
The 18,600 acres of land,
expropriated in 1972, may
prove to be a "very special
property," Beer said during
Monday might's council meeting.
"The land has had nothing
built on it for over 20 years.
They (federal government) have
a chance to capitalize on this
opportunity and give something
to the generation coming up,"
Beers said. "We haven't been
able to give them anything else
but debt and problems. We
can't pave over everything.
They at least• need food larxis."
Liberal MP Dan McTeague
said his government has to "put
the issue at rest," and have a full
scale review on the future
development of the lands
completed by June 1994.
Past proposals have included
the construction of an airport
and, more recently, a sekff of
surplus land around the
proposed airport site.
McTeague announced a
special "Day of Discovery"
meeting on Saturday March 26,
at the Pickering Central Library

Pickering council votes no to referendum
By Brenda Biirinyi
There will be no referendum
ballots counted in November's
Pickering municipal election.
Ward 2 regional councillor
Kip Van Kempen's attempt to
include referendums on issues
such as landfill sites, fire station
maintenance and the
consolidation of services
duplicated by Pickering and Ajax
was voted down at Monday
night's council meeting.
"It could have been a good
chance to qet valuable input for
Metro transfer stations —
Durham' Region and
Metropolitan Toronto are
negotiating a plan for
Durham to use Metro
transfer stations if Brock

Oshawa councillor John
Aker, ..the works
department chairman. ...
Aker was put under fire
at regional council last
week by Pickering
Councillor Kip Van
Kempen who demanded to
know what the region's
contingency plan would be
if the environment ministry
shut down the Pickering
dump before its 1997
sdWuled closing.
Brock West opponents,
which include community
groups like Pickering -Ajax
Citizens Together for the
environment and several
Pickering politicians —
a new incoming council," Van
Kempen said. "All I was trying
to get across (to council) was the
idea. Council had nothing to
lose and evervthina to gain."
if Brock West closed

want Brock West closed the transfer station for
now, claiming it is already approximately nine

:Aker admitted that the Durham is under orders

Metro to use their transfer station and then

"A referendum might spark
greater interest at the polls,
resulting in greater voter
turnout. Don't kill it just because
I don't have the proper written
questions," Van Kempen added.
Town clerk Bruce Taylor told
council members a referendum
would not cost taxpayers extra
money, delay tallying of election
votes or be binding by law.
Ward 1 Regional Councillor
Maurice Brenner said he likes
the idea. "I am happy to
support a referendum," he said
in an interview, "but I don't

questions."

Wiseman
Some of the basic requirements
of the regulations include recycling

municipalities of 5,000 or more;
waste reduction workplans and
recycling programs for large retail
complexes, hospitals, schools,
restaurants and office buildings;
packaging reduction workplans for
manufacturers; and recycling in
apartment buklings.
Under the revised regulations
(draft regulations were released last
April), municipalities wit not be
required to collect recydables from
businesses and industries, just from
residences.
Southern Ontario municipalities

meet the recycling requirements.

The Town of Ajax has decided to ride the "way of the
future" by leasing 15 optical scanning voting machines in time
for this November's municipal election.
Budget advisory committee members approved the six-
year, $84,000 lease -to -buy package March 3, a deal that
clerk Joe Tiernay said will save the town approximately
$30,000 this year and likely pay for itself by the end of the
lease term.
The town will save the money through a reduction in
polling personnel — only 53 polling stations will be required
instead of the projected 137 — and reduced postage and
stationery costs.
But the biggest advantage of the optical scanning machines
is speed, Tiernay said. Under the manual system, it can take
as long as three hours to count the votes. With the scanners
the results can be known in less than 20 minutes.
The system also eliminates human error, said Greg
Forsythe from Global Elections System, the New Mexico -
based company who will supply the town with the 15
machines.
Forsythe demonstrated the machines to committee
members. The voter first marks the ballot — enclosed in a
"secrecy folder" — then feeds it into the unit. The vote is
immediately counted and, at the close of polls, the deputy
returning officer simply presses a couple of buttons and a
tape is produced with the final results.
The unit can be programmed to reject improperly marked
votes while accepting those on the same ballot that are
correctly marked.
Ajax Transit director Terry Barnett said his staff already
uses optical scanning in their "smart -card technology" fare
system, with good results.
The machines would be housed and maintained at the
Canadian headquarters of Global in Vancouver and shipped
out to Ajax whenever the town needed the equipment.
Global optical scanning machines are currently in use in
more than 150 American communities. Similar systems are
used in Scarborough and North York-
Forsythe
orkForsythe assured committee members the breakdown rate
for the machines was "minimal."

(PACT) member David Steele
vows his group will go ahead
with a $30,000 health study

PACT had asked council for
$10,000 to help fund the

Sister Marie Bertal, a Nobel
prize-winning health specialist.
According to Steele, the study
will compare water and air
samples from Pickering to those
from a "healthy community,"
one without a landfill site and a
nuclear generating plant.
Ward 2 local councillor Eileen
Higdon requested terms of

Local democracy
In the regioins and counties from one end of
this nation to the other the local government
bodies meet as strictly as possible on
different days of the week or at different
times of the day in the interest of best
democracy. But not so, here in Durham
Region.
Here if a citizen wants to attend the
meetings of the major municipal and
education elected bodies for Pickering -Ajax,
she or he would find it's impossible. Local
government meetings here could hardly be
more perfectly organized if the intent were to
fin -it citizen participation and surveillance as
much as possible.
Our major local government meetings are
just about all on the same night of the week,
on Monday, and just about at exactly the
same time. No voter or taxpayer can possibly
keep an eye on ghat the local elected
representeuva are doing whilst mh'ffons upon
millions of public dollars are spent.
furthn if a number or staff official of one
board or council has reason to be concerned

winning design trend continues at woodlands
f you're looking for the
perfect home in the
perfect community, look
no further than The
Woodlands community in Whitby.
The house styles, created by
Chestnut Hills Homes, have been
winning over house hunters since
the community was first
developed. The newest phase —
35 homes, all with new people -
pleasing designs — continues that
winning trend.
There are seven different styles
being released, on 42 and 45 -ft.
lots, ranging from the $187,990
Teal to the huge 3,120 sq. ft.
Stellar at $214,990.
The Mandarin, a 2,850 sq. ft.
home priced at $209,990, features
a sunken living room and a family
room with direct vent gas
fireplace; a spacious kitchen and
breakfast area and four upstairs
bedrooms, including a sumptuous
master bedroom.
The second floor also features a
"great room" with cathedral ceiling
and optional fireplace.
All the new home styles boast
casement windows on the first and
second floors and some of the
homes feature greenhouse kitchens
and solariums.
But there's more to The
Woodlands than just great new
styles because, to Chestnut Hills
Homes, developing a community
means more than just building
houses.
In Whitby, they've succeeded in
combining homes built with care
and quality with a neighborhood
complete with green space,
shopping and recreation facilities
— all at an affordable price.
"We're trying to build
communities that people can call
home," said Ralph DelDuca,
Chestnut Hill's vice-president of
sales and marketing. "It's
important to us to give people the
home they want in a great
location."
The community sits on Brock
Street just south of Taunton Road
backing onto protected greenspace
along Lynde Creek. Cullen
Gardens and Miniature Village is
just around the corner and nearby
are several golf courses and
conservation areas. Commuters
can opt for the Taunton-Steeles
extension or take a short drive
south on Brock Street to Highway
401 or the GO Transit station.

Speed up
highway
Durham council wants the
province to hurry up the
widening of the "vitally
important" Highway 401 to 10
lanes as well as accelerate the
extension of Highway 407 into
the region.
Construction work on
Highway 401, currently
underway at Markham Road in
Scarborough, is not expected to
reach Brock Road in Pickering
until 1998. It will likely be at
least 2010 before the highway
work reaches Clarington.
No time frame has been
established for the extension of
Highway 407 into Durham
Region but the work is expected
to reach Markham Road by the
end of the decade.
Ajax Mayor Jim Witty said the
Highway 407 work is crucial to
the region's future but said
speeding up the widening of
Highway 401 should be the
region's number one priority.
"It's safe to say the 407 is
important to Durham but the
widening of the 401 is vitally
important to the region," he
said.
Regional Chair Gary Herrera
will attempt to invite Premier
Bob Rae to meet with area
mayors on the Durham's special
standing committee to discuss
the issue.
CHOO
FM hearing
The Canadian Radio -
Television and
Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) has set an
April 25 hearing date to
approve Ajax radio station
CH00-AM's application to
move over on the dial to FM.
Douglas Kirk, chairman of
Durham Radio, said the
company made the request to
improve reception — especially
at night — and sound quality.
CRTC approval, 9 given, wil
Z* take 60-90 days, Kirk said.
Approval will also mean the
addition of one hA4ime and two
or three part-time e<mpioyees to
CHWS hill -time staff of 15,
Mk added.
The station will cm*m with
the country music format.
CH00-AM will also ask the
CRTC to approve the dune
1993 sale of the station from
C701den West ftaboft
The sale price of the statim
wasn't disclosed but Kirk said the
bill was "under a million "

Man
faces
charges
A Pickering man is dead and
another faces manslaughter
charges after an argument over
cats last week led to blows.
Lawrence Spurrell, 63,
stopped breathing an has after
a March 2 fight with Bill Shanks,
his 32 -year-old neighbor.
Spurrell, a Yeremi Street
resident, was rushed to Ajax -
Pickering General Hospital but
was pronounced dead upon
arrival.
An autopsy performed Friday
declared the cause of death as a
"heart -related" condition.
Spurrell was diagnosed as a
diabetic and suffered a stroke
three years ago.
Durham Region Police said
the 9:30 p.m. fight began after
Shanks, an Oklahoma Drive
resident known to police,
confronted Spurrell over a
catfight. Shanks had blamed
Spurrelrs cat, Jake, for an attack
on Shanks' cat, Tiger.
Spurrell's death marks the
second homicide in Durham
Region this near.

Heather MacDonald does
not have her drivers licence
yet and, like many of her
friends, she opposed
graduated licensing. After
attending a brief transportation
ministry seminar on the new
system, MacDonald has
changed her opinion.
"It's basically the same (as
the old system)," the 15 -year-
old student said after the
seminar at Ajax High School.
"Originally, I thought it was
really dumb because I heard a
lot of rumors, but after this it
doesn't seem so bad."
MacDonald said she believes
many of her friends are
misinformed, and would
accept the policy if they
understood it better. "The
rumor Ive heard is that it takes
four years. I think there's a
problem with communication."
Kevin Ftzmaurice's job is to
address that problem. He and
other Ministry of
Transportation employees are
conducting seminars in
Ontario high schools to inform
teenagers of the new rules.
He brings some frightening
statistics.
Motor vehicle collisions are
the number one killer of
people age 16-24. Eighty -fine
per cent of those are caused
by human error, not bad
weather or mechanical failure.
Inexperienced drivers are three
times more likely to be
involved in a collision.
He tells students that lives
can be saved 9 new drivers are
better prepared. "(Graduated
licensing) is about allowing
new drivers to gain experience
in a low-risk environment,"
Fitzmaurice said during his
presentation. "When you
leave your learning period you
will leave alive and as a safer
driver"
Graduated licensing will be
implemented June 6. It
establishes two levels for new
drivers. Level 1 lasts 12
months, or eight months with
a driver -education program.
To operate a motor vehicle the
driver must be accompanied by
someone with at least four
years experience, maintain a
zero blood-alcohol level, stay
off 400 -series highways, and
not drive between midnight
and 5 a.m.
Level 2 is similar to a full
licence. For an additional 12
months drivers must maintain
a zero blood-alcohol level and
limit the number of passengers
to the number of seatbelts.
There are no further
restrfctfons.
A road test is required to
pass from level 1 to level 2
and from there to a full
licence.
Graduated licensing does
not impress Mike Burley. The
17 -year-old Ajax High School
student questioned the policy's
impact on safety. "This isn't
going to make people drive
slower. There is nothing the
government can do to
stop...acddents," he said.
The province disagrees.
According to the
transportation ministry,
Australia and New Zealand
experienced a 15 per cent
reduction in accidents the first
year they implemented
graduated licensing. In the
second year accidents were cut
by seven per cent.
The province hopes for
similar results in Ontario. For
more information call the
transportation ministry at 235-
2999 or 1-800-387-3445.
