HomeMy WebLinkAboutBN1994_07_06Parish still fighting for accessible council By Glenn Hendry If at first you fail, try, try again, seems to be the motto for Ajax card 3 councillor Steve Parish. Parish has been fighting to get site plans for local developments iebated at the Monday night committee of the whole meetings nstead of Thursday afternoon executive and development committee meetings. The Thursday meetings are not televised and two :ouncillors - Ward 1 councillor Frank Schaper and Ward 2 councillor Scott Crawford - do not have votes, fuelling Parish's claims that :ouncil is not accessible enough to the public. Parish, who has been bucking for changes to the committee itruchue since he was elected two years ago, tried to fast-track the :hanges last week over a proposal from Cougs Investments to Develop a commercial/residential site in east Ajax. His motion lost. On Monday night he tried again, this time over a Runnymede )evelopment proposal in downtown Ajax, and once again he was ;hot down. This time, however, the councillor could claim a partial rictory, as the site plans will be heard at executive and development :omrnittee, but on a televised Monday night coundl meeting. Parish believes residents don't know how the planning process works. Watching coundl proceedings on cable television, he adds, is the best way to learn. 'What better way to educate people than to bring the site plan process into their homes?"

A majority of the Ajax Water Supply Plant Committee — mandated to ensure the new plant meets 21 requirements of safety and design — believes they have. One member — the Ione dissenting voter — says they have not. It will be up to Environment Minister Bud Wildman will make the final decision on the badly needed plant's future. After 18 months of debate, the committee has met 20 of the 21 conditions required by the enviromner t ministry, for the new water plant, to be built adjacent to the existing plant on Ajax's lakefront - The one bone of contention is a requirement that a 3-D detection model be built to monitor tritium, a radioactive form of hydrogen produced naturally and also released in small doses by the nearby Pickering Nuclear Generating Station. Committee member and Aiax regional councillor Roger Anderson said the committee will ask the ministry to amend that requirement because the model cannot be built yet, adding that the best way to monitor tritium is still direct water sampling. But Sherrill Willard, the member who voted against amending the requirement (and a staunch opponent of locating the plant so close to the nuclear plant), claims ministry officials say the model can be built. Even if it can't, she added, there's "no excuse" for bypassing the requirement. 'They've decided to ask the minister to amend (the requirement) but to me, that's not meeting the requirement. I certainly don't approve," she said "It means they don't care about our health. Thank goodness the minister makes the decision and not the committee or the region. 'There's just too many unsafe problems here. We have better alternatives and we should be doing them," she added. *If they are going that route (to amend the requirement) then we owe it to the people to put the water plant in a safer place." Anderson disagreed with Willard, pointing out that the new plant will be perfectly safe, even if the province passes proposed new tritium guidelines that will reduce accepted levels from 40,000 bequerels per litre to 100 bequerels per litre. "It's not a problem. Maybe (it will be a problem) for some other water plants in Ontario, but not for ours." Anderson added that the location of the new plant is not up for discussion, despite Willard's fears of tritium spills from the nuclear plant. 'There's absolutely no problem with the water plant location," he said at a recent regional council meeting. "The location has been decided. It's that cut and dried." Fellow Ajax Pat Brawn, also a committee member, agreed with Anderson, noting that she was satisfied safety requirements of the new plant will be met. She also expressed relief the process was complete. 'It's very positive in that we were able to put it to bed finally," she said. The committee's report will go before the Durham Region works committee July 12 (with Willard expected to speak) before arriving at regional council July 20. The plant, which will cost at least $70 million (the biggest project on the region's books) and solve annual water shortage problems in Ajax and Pickering, is already behind schedule. The plant was supposed to be built next year but the new construction schedule has a shovel in the ground in 1996 with completion by 1998. Other members of the water supply plant committee include William Foden, Ken Thompson and Angela Bober. New investments for Ajax money The Town of Ajax is diversifying their investment portfolio. The town plans on testing the waters of two new investment funds established for Ontario municipalities: CHUMS Financing Corporation and LAS Pooled Investment Program. The funds were developed with the assistance of senior finance officers from municipalities throughout the province and are available to towns for joint investment. Ajax, which has always invested "cautiously" in the past, will also invest cautiously in the new funds, said deputy treasurer Rob Forde. The town's total investment portfolio right now is about $20 million (primarily with the "big five" Canadian banks) and Forde expects to invest "no more than a million" in each of the two funds. Parish • From Page 1 Rodger Miller, an executive with Runnymede, had brought his already conditionally approved project back to council, hoping for four small changes to the council resolution. He won all four concessions, including the deletion of a requirement that his site plan be addressed before fun council. Miller said his company was the only development firm asked to bring their site plan before fun council and asked if the town might be creating an uneven playing field. On that point, both Parish and long-time adversary Roger Anderson agreed, but for different reasons. Anderson, who chairs the executive and development committee, voted against Parish's demand that site plans go before full council, pointing out that 'if you do this one, you have to do them an." Anderson also noted that holding meetings at 6 pm on a Monday night is not making council any more accessible to the public, with residents likely eating dinner or still driving home from work at that time. The debate may soon prove to be moot. A report on changes to the committee structure - likely allowing all members of council to cast votes at all committee meetings - is expected to be brought to council in the fall, shortly before the November 14 municipal election.

POOL BUSTERS SERVING THE INDUSTRY FOR 26 YEARS Whitevale library saved By Brenda Birinyi With Pickering budget deliberations a year away, Whitevale and District Residents' Association (WDRA) saw Pickering council last week allocate $40,000 in the 1995 budget to upgrade the Whitevale library branch next year. "The library board, in its initial recommendations, talked about closing down the Whitevale branch," WDRA president Marion Thompson said in an interview. "I couldn't believe someone on the library board intended to close down the Whitevale branch. "We (WDRA) managed to convince the library board the Whitevale branch services a large area, and essential renovation and upgrades were needed in order to keep the branch building to a standard acceptable under the codes and legislation governing public library buildings in Ontario," Thompson added. The most serious repair needed is to address dry rot under the floor boards. The building also needs washrooms installed (the facility functions without them), and insulation added to the structure. Although the branch is limited to Tuesday and Saturday openings, Thompson maintains that it meets community needs and that "no one is asking for more hours to be added to the library schedule. What we want to do is save our library, both service and building." A longtime community activist, Thompson said the original proposal to dose the Whitevale branch "made me so angry. We don't even have time to catch our breath here (in Whitevale). It's just one thing after another and we (the residents) are in some other battle — like landfill." According to Thompson, recent library board meetings have resulted in encouraging results and WDRA now strongly endorse the initiative of the library board. The Pickering Public Library Board will continue to provide library service in Whitevale by provision of a kiosk library temporarily situated in the Replacement Inground liners '6,32 $ tram 1 a 29500jnftiwd 'It's unwise to pay too much, but it's worse to pay too little. When you pay too little you sometimes lose everything, because the thing you bought was incapable of doing the thing It was bought to do. The common law of business balance prohibits paying a little and getting a lot – it can't be done. If you deal with the lowest bidder, It is well to add something for the risk you run.

The proposed closing and re -opening dates for the library requested by WDRA are July 1, 1995 to August 31, 1995. Whitevale residents are more than prepared to assist with the actual work on the building (as they have done in the past with the Whitevale Community Centre) as well as the removal and replacement of the books from the beginning of the project to the conclusion. "I just hope after all this work Pickering politicians don't take the $40,000 budget allocation for the Whitevale library out during January 1995 budget deliberations," added Thompson. "After all, $40,000 is small in comparison to the $2.5 - million council approved to build the Claremont facility." The Whitevale library, located in the centre of the hamlet, is surrounded by structures dating back to the 1850s. The library is awaiting historical designation that would, among other things, protect it from destruction. • 16x32 Rectangular - Oval - Pk ymate - Octagon = , • Aluminum Coping,„ • Skimmer - returns - Main Drain • Pattern 30 Mil.

Ajax resident Martin Olenroot announced that he is running for trustee, Wards 3 and 4, in the November 14 municipal election. Born in Indonesia from Dutch descent, Martin feels that he has a lot to offer the school system. 'An elected trustee must take time to communicate and listen to the electors," Olenroot said. "When the residents in Wards 4 and 4 elect me as their trustee, they will be assured of my commitment to represent them to the best of my ability." "The parents in the community of Ajax must know that they can always contact me with their concerns. Let me know what they (the concerns) are especially with regards to the imposed Social Contract. Let is look ahead and make sure our voice is heard this time." Martin Olenroot, who has a home media business, has Wed in Canada since 1975. He and his family moved to Ajax in 1989. Active in the community, Olenroot is a United Way volunteer (he co-chaired the first annual TV auction), a volunteer with Maclean Hunter Cable TV (he co -hosted a news program called Community Magazine and is now a reporter for the same program), and he recently received the 1994 Big Sisters annual award. He is also a lifetime member of the Ajax - Pickering General Hospital and is a member of the Ajax - Pickering Homepreneur breakfast club. To keep up with his Dutch heritage, Martin became a member of the Netherlands Luncheon Club; he is the Durham coordinator of the Dutch Television Hilversum search for Canadian veterans and the Durham fundraising coordinator for the 50th anniversary of the liberation of Holland.

The Ajax station applied last summer for the conversion to the FM band, as well as for approval of an ownership change. The Canadian Radio -television and Telecommunications Commission delivered its positive verdict June 30. "We're very excited that an FM station is coming to Durham Region," said CHOO program director Steve Kassay. "It gives us a wider range, a cleaner signal and quality sound, 24 hours a day. It's really needed." The decision also puts the finishing touches on the ownership change. Previously owned by Golden West Broadcasting of Altona, Man., the new company - Durham Radio Inc. - is headed by Robert Marshall of Uxbridge and North York's Douglas Kirk, a media analyst and broadcast owner. Marshall, in a press release, promised increased community involvement and a direct commitment to local news, as well as a pledge to retain the country music format, "a long standing tradition in Durham" and "North America's most popular radio format." The arrival of the FM station, which may or may not keep the CHOO name, will provide Durham with "a strong community voice and a powerful new vehicle for the local business community," Marshall said. Kassay said the conversion will take place by the end of the year, at the latest. � Consumer Car Mart Now nlk.� 7c - bumper -to -bumper service for all cars & trucks - domestic and import :1 TIRES 0 BRAKES TUNE-UPS 0 SUSPENSION �] EXHAUST 0 ALIGNMENT kilnancing availa6Te on a ices i .nu1vZOX' D64 TOURING ELITE 130, 000 km MILEAGE WARRANTY RQAD HAZARD WARRANTY P175/70R13 BW 79.98 P185/70R14 BW 94.98 P185/601314 BW 95.98 P195/601315 BW 104.98 P205/651315 BW 106.98 P225/601316 BW 122.98 astTjVZL7P SPORT ROVER GTX SPOIRT TRWK PERFOPAIAAM RADIAL P215/701315 P2351701115 P255/70 R15 P235/60 R15 P275/60 R15 31 x.10.51115 106.98 117.98 123.98 121.98 143.98 152.98 WE CARE "A7j TZOP AXIOM ALL SEASON RADIAL 100, 000 km MILEAGE WARRANTY RGAD HAZARD WARRANTY P155/80R13 WW 64.98 P185/70R14 WW 85.98 P215/701314 WW 95.98 P205/70R15 WW 97.98 P215/75R15 WW 101.98 P205/651315 WW 104.98 j7UjVZOP RADIAL ROVER AT UGKT TRUCK ALL SEASON 96, 000 km MILEAGE WARRANTY LT235175 R1 5C 124.98 30 x 9.5 1315C 141.98 31 x 10.5 R1 5C 152.98 LT245/75 R16E 168.98 LT265175 R16D 174.98 LT235/85 R16E 157.98 1016 sRwcK woven Jusr sourer of TMs 401 EEMJ� IN MCKtRINfi 6 July 6, 1994 • The Boy News 7%e Bay News is a P.A.N.

So, when did we start changing? Was it the children of war and Baby Boomers coming of age? Was it the hippies and flower children; the "protesters -at -a -distance?" Or was it just one too many sleazy politicians? Brian Mulroney, perhaps. Historians, no doubt, will enjoy the exercise of analysis in sorting out the whys and hows of change in our political savvy. But one thing is certain: we have reached a stage in our evolution where we will no longer tolerate deception from our politicians. The "backroom boys," whether they know it or not, are on their way out. Suddenly, we are watching. Municipal politicians have always enjoyed a certain sense of freedom. Not being aligned with — or controlled by — any political party can certainly produce a Superman syndrome, especially in the case of an election which may be little more than a popularity contest, where the guy most glib gets in. And this November it happens all over again. But this time, the public is wary; this time, we've been watching. Or, at least we've been trying to. In Ajax, Councillor Steve Parish has become, like a pebble in a shoe, a nagging reminder to the rest of Council that all is not right; that the public has a "need to know;" that it must be included in every meeting, in every decision — especially in the planning of its own new downtown. Pickering council members often .show, openly, their annoyance at Councillor Kip Van Kempen who, hike a dog with a bone, continues to gnaw at those who think secrecy and ongoing closed -door meetings are acceptable to the public they promised to serve. Remarkably, on both councils, there are still those who just don't get it. Yes, in Ajax, the public does want to watch the Big -Guy Developers vs. The :Small Town Politicians. And yes, in Pickering, the public does want to watch The Slide -Guy Garbageman vs. The Small Town Elected Officials. It may not be comfortable for anyone, but the public does have a "need to November is coming; the voters are watching. And it's about time some of the "backroom boys — and girls" woke up to that reality. 1tK Akkhak HERE THERE BE DRAGONS: Kyle Cook works on a dragon during summer children's clay camp at the Turning Point studio in Pickering. Former regional councillor dies By Brenda Birinyi Laurie Cahill, long known as a politician for the people who never set out to hurt anyone and, 'lived life to the fullest from both ends," according to a close family friend, has died at 68. Given a clean bill of health a few years ago after radiation therapy sent into remission an inoperative cancerous neck tumor, Mr. Cahill died suddeW Saturday at Ajax/Pickering General Hospital in Ajax following a stroke. "He was an effective voice at the region," noted Anderson, adding that Cahill was one of the councillors instrumental in stopping the Lawrence Avenue extension from being built across the Rouge River Valley System, back in the '80s. "It was no doubt one of his proudest achievements." Longtime family friend Terry Nuspl said, "You knew where you stood with Laurie. You may not have always agreed with him, but you knew where you stood and you could go from there. "He was the first person I knew that got a home computer," Nuspi said. "He spent endless hours entering names of every constituent who ever called, recording their concerns and problems. He wanted that information at his fingertips for quick and easy reference," she recalls. Mr. Cahill wanted residents to feel he cared about their concerns — all of them. Mr. Cahill's political career came to an end during the 1985 municipal election when he gambled — leaving Laurie Cahill his regional seat to run unsuccessfully against the incumbent mayor of the day, Jack Anderson. Leaving politics behind, he continued to work until retirement at Howden Canada where he worked as a factory safety inspector. In October 1989 Mr. Cahill was the lucky winner of $2.2 - million in the Lotto 649. Mr. Cahill was a proud member of the Pickering Royal Canadian Legion Bram—ch 606. He leaves his wife Pat, children Laurie, Darith and Janice and stepchildren Sheri and Debbie. Predeceased by Gregg and Margaret, he was the grandfather of 12. A funeral service was held Tuesday at 2 p.m. at the McEachnie Funeral Home Chapel in Pickering with burial following. ' Magazine story a "damning indictment" of IWA — Arthurs By Glenn Hendry A national environmental publication is claiming the creation of the Interim Waste Authority - the provincial body responsible for selection of future landfill sites - has cost taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars and is 'effectively killing recycling" in Ontario. The editorial in June's Hazardous Materials Management, written by Guy Crittenden, further claims that former environment minister Ruth Grier's waste reduction bill (May 1992) was really 'the big dump bill", allowing the province to create 'three enormous holes in the ground that will create the biggest disincentive to reduce waste imaginable." He added the 'mistakes" Grier made so embarrassed her government she was removed from the environment portfolio. The New Democratic Party took waste management off the hands of local municipalities when they were elected in 1990. Since then three mega - dumps, two in York Region and a third in Pickering (adjacent to the existing Brock West site), have been chosen to take future garbage, much to the displeasure of local environmentalists and politicians. Pickering Mayor Wayne Arthurs, who read the editorial, called the story an 'incisive critique" of the provincial government and of the IWA process. "(It's a) damning indictment by environmental professionals of an irrational, ideologically - driven process that is damning Pickering and imposing a direct and indirect financial burden upon us," he said. The editorial states that Grier's bill stipulated that landfill proponents must consider alternatives to mega -dumps — such as hauling Toronto -area garbage by rail to abandoned mine sites in northern Ontario — while 'slyly exempting" it's own IWA from the process. At the same time, the article continued, the province has given its approval to trucking garbage to American sites, a move that Crittenden claims has 'destroyed the commercial viability' of local 3R's enterprises by undermining the municipalities' ability to pay for recalling programs. Trucking garbage south of the border has cost Toronto -area municipalities more than $270 million in lost tipping fees and currency exchange over the past three years, Crittenden adds. Both opposition parties have said they will shut down the IWA in their first 100 days in office if elected and Crittenden concludes it is 'obvious" the NDP should halt the IWA immediately. Board, supply teachers reach contract deal The Durham Board of FAntion has readied an agreement with their supply teachers, effective January 1, 1994 to December 31, 1995. The deal between the board and the Ontario Public School Teaches' Federation, Durham District, Occasional Teachers' Branch, was reached May 31 and ratified last week. Salaries for the supply teaches will not increase during the two years of the agreement but there YA be sane changes to the criteria for benefit plan eligibility, as well as same other mirror charges. The agreement, which canes at no extra cost to the cost board, carers approximately 440 teachers. . No'' 0DJEi'dibrs to newpermito fees It appears local developers are content with changes the Town of Ajax has made to its building permit fee structure. Thursday afternoon was set aside for delegates from the Urban Development Institute and the Home Builders Association to comment on the town's proposed changes, which will allow the town to set permit fees based on a fixed dollars per square metre formula. But there were no delegates in attendance at the budget advisory committee meeting.. Existing fees are based on the value of construction but disputes often arose between the two sides over the actual value of the development, especially on large projects. A local builder, who is currently developing a site in Ajax, is involved in a court action with the Town of Whitby over the value of a project. Several area municipalities, such as Mississauga and Vaughan, have already changed their building permit fee structure. Other municipalities, including Pickering, are currently reviewing the policy. The new fee structure still has to be ratified at full council. The Rw News • JW 6, 1994 7 There are many ways to show your love.

The extra dates, along with extra pickups added at a May 16 council meeting, will add more than $25,000 to the general levy and put a further $30,000 - plus burden on the regional Levy in tipping fees. Ward 4 councillor Jim McMaster asked for the extra pickup dates, claiming an advertising program promoting grasscycling that encouraged residents to leave mown grass on the lawn and not place it on the curb for pickup is not working. 'This is very much a problem. don't think it's working and I think we're hiding our heads m the sand if we ignore it," said McMaster, who said many Ajadanss consider grass pickup a 'high priority service." Council decided to limit yard waste pickup to only certain days this summer after the environment ministry outlawed green grass from the regional composting facility in Whitby Jr . t / .00 Mmji�".000 because of the smell. ip—!- The grass and yard waste can ' still go to Brock West landfill site, although the town has to "` � '°�y A pay tipping fees.

By reducing pick-ups, the town had originally budgeted for a $40,500 savings this year. The works department receives 90 to 100 calls per day on the issue, council was told. At least 25 are complaints. The department was also asked to continue to pick up brush with the chipper truck, as needed. It takes approximately three weeks to complete a circuit of the town with the truck.

PfcteriMl Nr Ajax recycling centre finds home but still looking for public and private donations By Glenn Hendry Jill Bontoft's dream of an al R's recycling centre in Ajax now has a home and is only two months and $16,000 from fruition. Incorporated since May 31, the All Rs Waste Reduction Centre will be located at the old Repla plant at 160 Dowty Street. The centre will accept all types of waste and discarded items - everything from coat hangers and sports equipment to small appliances and old books - as well as blue box materials. A private effort, the centre will rely on government funding for its start-up and public and private funding for its continued existence. With a three-year budget of approximately $200,000, Bontoft is hoping to raise $100,000 privately, including equipment, promotion and labor. That cash value will be matched by Environment Canada's Environmental Partners Fund. Bontoft called the federal funding "tricky," pointing out the cash must be on hand before the agency will match the dollars. The response from irndivduals has been 'overwhelming," Bontoft told Ajax council recently, noting that industry and business have already donated most of her required office equipment. Her landlord also received praise for his `most reasonable" offer of $1.60 per sq. ft. rent fee (approximately $30,000 per year) as well accepting a charitable donation receipt for a portion of the rent. Bontoft has received funding to hire an employee under the Environmental Youth Corp program but she struck out on her request to council for a property tax credit she could use towards her finding. Ajax chief administrative officer Barry Malmsten said the tax break is not permissible under the Municipal Act. Malmsten, at the request of Ajax Mayor Jim Witty, will prepare a report on "creative ways" the town can assist Bontoft, however. Witty made the request because he expects the centre to save the town tipping fees by diverting materials away from Brock West landfill site. The recycling centre will also help Ajax achieve its goal of a 50 per cent reduction in waste by the year 2000. The centre will serve Ajax and Pickering in its initial set-up although Bontoft hopes to Teams needed for slo-pitch tournaments On August 5, 6 and 7 the Scarborough Mixed Slo-Pitch Association will be holding its 12th annual mixed tournament. The proceeds from this tournament go to the Variety Village Sports and Training Centre in Scarborough, a facility for youths with special needs. The deadline date for registering for the tournament is Tuesday, Aug. 2. The tournament has raised over $185,000 in the past ten years. Teams are needed m all seven divisions. Each division will compete with 5 males and 5 females on the field. Each team is a8owed twenty people on the roster. Every team entering is guaranteed a minimum of 3 The cost per team is $200 for SPN members and $240 for non-members.

"Lt's an ongoing project that will accomplish quite a lot for recycling in Durham," Bontoft said. The centre, which will sell materials to generate revenue, will be able to handle such diverse goods as paper, scrap metals, plastics, elastics, bread tabs, corks, egg cartons, prescription bottles, twist ties, styrofoam packing chips, beer caps and film cannisters. Bontoft expects to be self- sufficient in three years. There are similar projects already in place in Hamilton, North Bay and Cobourg. HIV test recommended for blood recipients By Peter Wolchak "If you were in a hospital between 1978 and 1985, read this." That advice opens the Ontario Hospital Association's campaign to inform patients who received blood over those seven years that they should be tested for HN, the virus linked to AIDS. It entered the Canadian blood system in 1978, but could not be screened until 1985. Many hospitals, including Ajax and Pickering General Hospital, have launched individual public awareness projects. "The goal of this campaign is to get individuals to ask two questions," OHA chair Bob Muir wrote in a press release. "First, was I in hospital between those years? Second, do 1 know for certain that I did not receive bloodT People may not remember a transfusion, and, in some cases, may not have been informed. "If there is any doubt whether someone received blood, they should discuss their individual circumstances with a doctor," Muir wrote - AIDS symptoms may not appear for 10 years or more. Individuals infected by a transfusion prior to 1985 may be healthy and unaware of their condition. For information about local testing can 416.327-7730. For TDD can 1-800-387-5559.

The owners of The Downs at Cedar Creek, a nine -hole course in Woodstock, Ont., are putting their course on the selling block and have devised a unique way of disposing of it: you shoot for it. For a $1, 000 entry fee, contestants get a chance to win ownership of the course in a "closest to the hole" contest. Each entrant will be assigned a tee -off time at the 165 -yard par -3 seventh hole and the four closest to the hole shots on each qualifying day will move on to the finals on September 18. The contest is open to all golfers - amateur or professional - and the contestant paying the entry fee may also select a designated shooter to drive to the green for him. Course owners are looking for at least $1.5 million so the contest will be cancelled if they do not receive 1,500 entries. Closing dates for the contest will be upon receipt of 3,000 paid entries or August 28, whichever comes first.

This being an election ww, we dMo you just might want to follow a little more closely the actions of the councillor in your ward. Surprisingly, although similar, the councils of the towns of Ajax and Pickering do not operate identically. However, both are accessible and approachable — providing you know all the ropes. 0 Ajax Council meets every Monday night and all these meetings are open to the public and televised. First and third Mondays are regular Council Meetings; second and fourth Mondays are meetings of the Cornrnittee of the Whole. The latter is a discussion meeting for larger issues — such as the current development of the Highway 2 corridor; final decisions, however, occur only at Council Meetings. All Monday night meetings are chaired by the mayor. Pickering Council also meets on Monday nights and meetings are open to the public and televised. In lieu of the Committee of the Whole, Pickering has an Executive Committee Meeting for their discussion purposes, on the second and fourth Mondays, alternating with regular Council Meetings. Councillors take turns chairing meetings of the Executive Committee; the duty of chairing regular council meetings, naturally, falls to the mayor. Ajax Council takes no Bob Rae days; only statutory holidays affect the regular 7:30 Monday night meetings, causing them to be moved to Tuesdays.

Pickering Council enjoys more leisure. So far this year, six Bob Rae days have moved their 7:30 council meetings to Tuesdays. Now in summer recess, Pickering councillors vacation for the entire month of July, meet for one Executive Meeting and one Council Meeting on the 2nd and 3rd of August, and then are gone again until their first Executive Meeting on September 12. Council meetings, in both towns, are televised "live" at 7:30 Monday nights. In Ajax, Maclean Hunter repeats the broadcast the following Tuesday at 10 a.m. and Wednesday at 7:30 p.m., on Ajax Community Cable 10. Pickering's Trillium Community 10 repeats its broadcast on Wednesday at 7 p.m. and the following Monday at noon. Trillium also makes copies of each broadcast for the Pickering Public Library and these tapes (although currently two weeks after the fact) are available for viewing, by anyone with a library card, at any time during the library's open hots;;. Ajax does not have this service. Councillors in both towns also serve on various committees; however, we won't get into that. Suffice to say that the public is seldom a party to these meetings — unless you care to kick up a fuss. Both councils are currently engaged in arguments over public access to private meetings: a process which has become fascinating to watch of late, as both councils tend to split — almost predictably — on nearly every important issue. Some members of council have indicated clearly that they are disturbed by the suggestion that all meetings be televised. Both cable companies, however, do indicate a willingness to supply this complete service should they receive such a request. And how can you access council? Prior to each council meeting, an agenda is produced. By checking with your town derk's office, on Thursday, you should be able to see the items coming before council on the following Monday. Agendas can be found in the libraries as well. 9 you wish to speak to a matter, you can become a delegation (even all by yourself) and get your name added to the agenda. But you must apply to the clerk's office in advance — in Ajax, by the Wednesday prior to the meeting (and in writing), and in Pickering, by Friday noon (a phone call will do). To be heard at a Pickering Executive Committee meeting, you may have up to 4:30 on Friday_ Ajax will listen to you, with no advance notice, if you are willing to wait until the very end — which during a hot meeting can be midnight; Pickering requires advance notice, always. So there you have it: all you need to know to watch your local elected official at work. It pays to watch. What with press deadlines and outright stonewalling by some members of council, local media is not always able to monitor your interests. Until some better system is devised, watching TV coverage of meetings each week remains your best bet.

"Although almost all host families participate year after year," says Joanne Libby, program co-ordinator, "I stili need a few more homes this year. " Couples, young families, families with older children, and single parent families can participate. 'The $85 a week that each family is paid is enough to cover expenses," says Libby, "so anyone who wants to enjoy the cultural exchange and the feeling of community that comes from the experience is able to do so." Farewell parties and a family picnic give the host families a chance to get to know each other and allow the students to introduce friends to their Canadian moms, dads, brothers and sisters.

Help is just a phone call away By Jennifer McWalters PHS co-op student When facing problems, people want somebody to listen, no strings attached. Distress Centre Durham -provides such a service. Established in 1970, the centre currently hosts approximately 60 volunteers trained in telephone counselling, suicide intervention and active listening skills. Callers of all ages phone with problems such as abuse, loneliness, bereavement and mental illness. Five to ten percent of all calls involve suicide. "We've had to do 17 active medical suicide interventions between January and May," executive director Nan Einerson told The Bay News. These callers had already injured themselves and required emergency treatment. The Distress Centre Youthline, operated between 4 and 7 pm, has volunteers aged 18 to 21. "Youth calls we get are very serious," said Einerson, "Usually they involve child abuse." Teens also call about dating issues, self- esteem and peer pressure. Some personal issues are more prevalent during certain months. During December and January there is an increase in cats from people who are loner,, depres:-ed and suicidal. The Distress Centre saw an increase in anger, frustration and family abuse during the recession and Einerson noted there are more calls from parents abused by their teens. Distress Centre Durham also offers Prevention through Education seminars at local schools. The presentations deal with issues such as suicide, self- esteem and stress management. "If we can provide kids with information on the stressers out there and the coping mechanisms available, than their personal issues are less likely to reach crisis level," said Einerson. Distress Centre volunteers are carefully screened; only 60 per cent of applicants make it to the phone lines. Volunteers do not offer advice or opinions but suggest options for dealing with issues. "All of our calls are success stories," said Einerson- Those seeking help can contact the Distress Centre at 433-1121. If calling long- distance within Durham Region call collect. All conversations are confidential and anonymous. The centre is always seeking volunteers. The next training sessions are JLIy 10 and 17.

Previously, control room operators monitored a number of separate gauges on a complex control panel. With the new system, computer graphics display all the important information, including boiler condition, reactor temperature, and power levels, allowing operators to spot problems faster. "In the 1980s Pickering A had a problem in balancing the reactor flux," Shek told The Buy News. "Before we implemented the new system it was very hard to spot the problem. Now we can monitor continuously and we don't get into that problem any more." The system is installed in three of the four Pickering A reactors. The fourth will, be upgraded in the next two months and the four reactors at Pickering B will follow in the near future. The new system is faster, safer, and not very expensive. Shek joined personal computers and existing technology to the plant's monitoring equipment. "If we have to start everything from scratch we can't implement it quickly. With off-the-shelf technology we just customize it to interface with the plant's equipment," Shek said. The project was completed for approximately one sixth of Hydro's original budget. "We like (the new system) because Pickering is an old plant. The technology is 20 years old," Shek said. "To upgrade it to modern standards is unfeasible because of the costs." Improving the old monitoring system would have cost $500,000 per reactor, compared to Shek's cost of $60,000 to $80,000. Even that low price tag may be offset. Hydro hopes to market the system in America and Europe, where it could make old Soviet reactors safer. Enquiries have also come from Korea. "With minor modifications it can be incorporated in other plants," Shek said. "If we can open up the export market we can make money on this. They have to come to us if they want the product." MAKING IT EASIER: Chi Fai Shek designed a computerized system to make it easier for control room operators to check the vital signs of their nuclear power plants. The technology may have export potential in U.S. and Eastern European markets. Volunteers work ByKadwKan Special to tate Bay News Dunbarton High School student Samantha Lock arrived at Canadore College in North Bay, Ontario, fresh with the spirit of a true volunteer. The Grade 11 student was just one of the 31 teens invited to attend the fourth annual National Trust Leadership in Volunteer Efforts (WE) Residential Camp. Lock said she felt conferences like LIVE help to promote involvement in volunteer efforts and offer an opportunity to meet people who share similar interests. "My eyes were opened to new ideas and concepts that I would never have thought of before," she said. "Many of the students here have some great ideas that I can use in the future." The theme reinforced throughout the conference was everyone can make a difference through volunteer work This busy teen was invited to the camp based on her ability to function as positive leader in her school and in her community. Ms. Lock is part of the Ontario Secondary School Students Association and is involved in Ontario students Against Impaired II� 1 Oth Ann ivarsary Driving. She also helps with the Children's Wish Foundation, volunteers at a local hospital and visits the elderly at the Villa Nursing Home. From June 2 to S, the teens took part in a series of workshops, seminars and discussion groups on issues related to volunteering, public service and citizenship. The conference also focused on group dynamics and communication skills through fun activities like talent shows and interactive games. Prior to leaving the camp, the teens were asked to make a personal contract for the following year. LIVE facili-ators from the Canadian Centre for Social Justice will then follow up on the students' progress toward the goals stated in the contracts. Mike Harris, MPP Nipissing and Leader of the Ontario PW.essive Conservative Parry, is the honorary chair of the LIVE program and an avid supporter of today's youth. "The camp experience provides young people with a supportive motivational environment where a sense of civic responsibility and a drive to action flourishes," Harris said.

Ed. Director of Education ummer `vacation is fast approaching which, for manyy families, means a less pressnred schedule and for many students putting away the school books. ,Not only is summer important for leisure activities for today's high paced lifestyle, but it is also an ideal time for students to fill in any gaps that may hinder their academic performance when sghool starts in the fall. A summer plan for educational opportunities can address potential learning difficulties, develop ways to. challenge and motivate bright;childreo 04 help students retain learning over the summer. Grade retention is especially important. Studies show that our children cnn forget up to 80 per cent of what has been learned if these skills aren't consistently reinforced. Parents, educators and learning centres that offer summer classes all possess the essentials necessary to assess a child's progress in order to make the summer a time to enhance the learning process. Consider the following Steps to make the summer count for your child's education. • Before teachers leave for the summer, make an appointment with this years teacher, the school counsellor, and if possible, the teacher for next fall. Discuss the child's strengths, weaknesses, warning signs of potential problems, personality, and socialization at school. • For the older students, conference with the guidance counsellor in terms of courses that he/she should be taking to meet the student's and parents' goals. This can help you as a parent make decisions about summer activities that will help prepare for .the school year ahead. For example, a shy child may need summer camp or sports activities to enhance self-confidence. A bright child may be bored with school but would enthusiastically participate in a science or computer camp or summer enrichment studies at a learning centre. Parents can also initiate a variety of learning activities at home to enhance learning. • TALK about current events, geography, health, time and measurement Wand other sub'�ects. Topical knowledge is the4ey to.reading success_,_ ;--._ Pf.A.Y -GAMES ' tf at have an educational orientation. Games can tell parents a lot about how well their child reads and understands instructions. Use games appropriate to your child's age and keep the feedback positive. • READ to vour child regularly from the age of 6 months. Have your child read the map to help navigate during family trips. Get your child a library card and make famiI7 trips to read and choose books. • WR1TE to friends, grandparents and pen -pals. Keep a summer journal or diary to share with the class in the fall. e BE CCRIOI:S. Keep your child stimulated with trips to the zoo, museum, the local newspaper office or other places that enhance learning. If parents use the summer not only for leisure activities but to enhance learning, the Prospects when school begins in the fall willbe distinctly brighter and less stressful for everyone. Learning is a life-long process'.

Environment minister launches $26 million home green up initiative A $26 -million jobsOntario initiative that will sponsor home green ups in 23 Ontario communities was 6wxhed in Oshawa recently with a round of visits by Environment Minister Bud Oshawa is the first community to take part in the initiative, in which speaally trained advisers will show householders how to reduce energy and water use, and reduce waste. An estimated 250,000 home green ups wil be carried out across Ontario over the next three years. Wildman opened Oshawes home green up project — the Green Conservation Action Program — in ceremonies at a new storefront headquarters., -The minister also spoke to students at Lakewood public school, toured a General Motors paint shop and addressed community leaders at a luncheon meeting. During his luncheon remarks Wildman said the government's funding of this initiative is an irwestmerd in a better environment and healthier economy. 'We expect home green ups to trigger more than half a billion dollars in spending by municipalities and local utilities, and by houselxAders as they carry out recommended home improvements." He said this wil generate thauands of jobs for local tradespeople, contractors and retailers. It will also support the growth of Ontario's green industry by expanding the market for goods and services that conserve energy and water and reduce waste. "Green industry is a relatively new sector, but it already plays an important role in our provincial economy. At last cotuit, the environmental subsector alone involved an estimated 2,000 companies with annual sales of $2.5 bion and a workforce of 30,000 people. And it is growing at about twice the rate of the Ontario economy as a whole," he said. The minister wound up his Oshawa visit by accompanying agricultural leaders on a tour of the nearby farm where the owner, Tom Barrie, has implemented an envir- onmental farm plan.

Local YMCA receives children's project money The YMCA of Greater Toronto (Durham Region) will receive more than $1.3 nuMon over four years for its Durham Brighter Futures Project from Health Canada's Community Action Program for CNWM In operation since 1966, the Durham chapter is committed to high quality programs that promote and support healthy individuals, families and communities and equality of opportunity for al members of the community. The Durham Brighter Futures Project was developed in conjunction with over thirty diverse agencies, residents and consumers from across the region. With a population of 409,000 and covering 2,471 square kilometres, Durham has experienced a rapid growth in population over the last decade -with increased levels of family disintegration. Ontario Riding MP Dan McTeague, who made the project announcement, congratulated the service group on their successful lobby for funding. "Durham Region has the highest rate of suicide, physical abuse, marital problems and albstarlce abuse in the pmvinoe. This project will assist local efforts aimed at addressing some of these problems," McTeague said in a press release. "In the face of the mourning pressures on families today, I commend this organization for its dedication and commitment to helping the people of Durham Regan." The project aims to reduce the isolation of families and enhance their strengths and utilities. It wa enable parents of children at risk (0-6 years) to access resources previously unavailable or inaccessible to them. In addition, new programs and services would be developed for under - serviced commumities in the region. Project components tncklde home visitors trained to work as peer h*m with at -risk families; community development activities to assist communities identify untapped capacities and access resources; and increased collaboration by agencies to ensure effective provision of services. By co-ordinating services among a variety of regional human service agencies, and encouraging and facilitating agency co-operation, this project will maximise existing resources and lessen the service gaps which currently exist ;u.. -. , �.. ,.. ,_:•,vr ., � ._�.�.,,,._...... .._ ._. ,_._ .. .:.....wx...e.asK,:.. �..v"r+o+.�+r+•—.r...o..:�_. ., t:: �.:,. ... �.-.++@5 �. :d'.:.@k'�a1r: .x;r'�7�+.,xee'"`�'-++ae�ae�..----..__.� ._..»_...... aa. _qw Elite camp for soccer kids The Ontario Soccer Association will host an elite soccer camp July 11-15 at the Harwood Soccer Field in Ajax.

You want a store that can meet al of those needs, so the place to go is Mobile Vacuum, with locations in Pickering and Ajax.

Complete central vacuum systems, one of the specialties at Mobile, start at 5499. If you're like me and you only like buying when you're getting a great deal on superior products, then come m and see me," LeBlanc said.

The used machines are perfect for both hone and cottage. "People don't always have a lot money in their budgets, so re- conditioned vacuums can be picked up for about ode -!bird the price." Mobile Vacuum is also a service centre. While the stores sell and service all makes of vacuurns, it is an authorized dealer for 14 vacuum brands, including Hoover, Eureka, Filter Queers, lana, Fairfax and Kirby. The company has also become a specialist in hyd-to-find parts and when larger service establishments are unable to find a part, cuvomers are usually referred to Mobile Vacar n.
