Both Smith and Cederberg agreed, if noone complained, it was all right for cars to park there.

The public school tax is up 15.4 per cent, (from $178.92 to 206.42). The secondary school tax is up 1.7 per cent, (fgqm $172.48 to $175,44).

But Julian Polika, director of Crown law office~civil for the attorney general, told The Liberal Tuesday nothing could be done unless a tenant files a com- plaint directly. At that point, he said, a local Crown attorney can take action. Councillor Burnie objected that the rights of the minority most im- mediately affected by the bubble must be respected, and argued “we‘re giving it to them over the objections of the people most directly related." Those in favour of the bubble maintained it provided a needed ser- vice, the cost of which made it prohibitive for the public sector. “The decisions we‘ll have to make over the next few years won‘t be happy ones." “I hate 10 see the landlord get away scott free. I don’t think that’s very fair to the tenants." Separate school supporters face an increase of only 4.6 per cent; from $718.36 to $751.10. t “The thing that really bothers me,” he said. “is that here you have a lan- dlord whose simply not paying his bills. It’s not the tenants‘ fault that the landlord is taking their rent money and not paying bills.“ “Cumulative effects of decisions of this kind regarding energy," he said, “could be very damaging in future.“ In debating the issue, Schiller suggested concerns expressed about traffic increases were not really justified. But he said he would object to the proposal on the basis of the energy it would require to heat the bubble over the winter months. $20,000 assessment will jump from $6'_i8.98_to $724.45 or76.7 per cent.

Ratepayers may ask the courts to order Mr. Justice Sam Hughes to give them status before the judicial inquiry into election contributions, says Tom Connolly. president of the Maple Ratepayers Association. Judge Hughes ruled Friday that the inquiry was set up to investigate corruption, not pollution. However, after listening to a delegation, headed by Peter Silverman of East Gwillimbury, it was decided to form an ad hoc committee. as suggested by Trustee Eric Baker of Richmond Hill, of not more than three Connolly said John Swaigen, lawyer for the ratepayers. was suggesting the ratepayers go to the courts to have a change ordered in the judge‘s position. As a result, the board will delay drawing up an agreement with South Lake Simcoe Conservation Authority for the use of Scanlon Creek outdoor education centre. At its regular meeting two weeks ago the board agreed to commit a maximum of $36,000 of next year’s budget to the centre, which is still to be built. While two former members hooted from the sidelines, and the present members hooted at each other across the table, York County board of education last week eventually agreed not to head up Scanlon Creek without first acquiring a paddle.

The Environmental Assessment Board‘ ministry of environment, Waste Management Inc., Norman Goodhead and Disposal Services are all to be heard at the inquiry, said Swaigen. It seems the only people who have a right to be parties at the inquiry are the companies who gave donations and those who may have been affected by it, he said. Swaigen repreéents ratepayer groups in both places, and appeared before the judicial inquiry Friday. However, the amended motion, featuring Baker's proposal, was passed 16â€"1 in another recorded vote, with only Trustee Dorothy Zajac of King, voting against. Another subsidiary, York Sanitation, had a site approved in Whitchurch- Stouffville despite problems with the town and ratepayers there. A subsequent amendment by McMonagle, calling for staff to delay drawing up an agreement, was passed 9-8 in a recorded vote.

It was the contention of the meeting that the motion went against the motion of the earlier meeting, in which the board voted 12-6 to proceed. It was ruled out of order by Chairman Craig Cribar. The Baker resolution came after one by Bob McMonagle of Markham, calling for the chairman “to withhold any action" on the centre until the board had fully evaluated similar programs and costs, was defeated. Although only 48 hours’ notice was required, the company informed tenants 15 days in advance and offered to supply electric heaters if necessary.

All proceeds for last week’s flakey event â€" part of Richmond Heights Centre’s The program begins at 8 pm Trustee Zajac said the board had a delegation from the Simcoe authority last year and the board approved the idea in principle at that time. “Surely you don‘t invest staff time when you’re not sure of the com- mitment. I feel that staff stands con- demned by the figures presented today. It‘s absolute folly on the board‘s part to tell staff to proceed.“ Stephens said. “That’s not true," shouted former trustee Chris McMonagle of Markham, Trustee John Stephens of Markham, said the board had been “misled” at its previous meeting, not having been informed of the ramifications of the project, or that there were two other centres being proposed. The amendment to delay was at» soluter necessary. “If the board decides to make this type of program an educational priority, then the board must be prepared to allocate sufficient funds in their budget to cover the expense of the program." Silverman said. But Ralph McGee, information of- ficer for York Region rent review board told The Liberal “the whole basis for rent review is to permit the passing through to tenants of a bona fide cost increase.” He said parents shouldn't be expected to pay the shot. In his brief, Silverman pointed out the board had three other centres â€" Albion, Claremont and Boyd â€" available for its use, but in the past two years had not used all its allotted time. Also, there were two proposed Metro Toronto and Region Conservation Authority centres in Oak Ridges and Kleinburg. The board had been offered shared commitments from MTRCA to both these places, but had never replied. Director Waugh admitted “gas costs for that particular size apartment have increased approximately 25 per cent for the past 12 months over the previous 12 months."

Inside The Liberal Seibert said the York Region Roman Catholic separate school board had requested 50 days at the centre and had contributed $10,000 towards its con- struction. This week, Peter Seibert, a spokesman for the South Lake Simcoe authority, said the latter would develop the Scanlon centre, with or without the support of the York board. He said construction of the $350,000 centre would begin this summer, and would be ready for use by the beginning of next year. Also accompanying Silverman and Mrs. McMonagle were former trustee Joy Horton of East Gwillimbury, and Marilyn Russell of Sharon. Said Stephens: “I apologize because I seek truth and justice and you are doing everything to subvert it." The meeting also agreed to a motion by William Denison of East Gwillim- bury to have the ad hoc committee report back to the board at the second meeting in June. Donald Cousens of Markhafn, took exception to Stephens’ remarks that the staff stood “condemned.” and asked for an apology. Speaking against the amendment, William Laird of Georgina, said he wasn‘t “prepared to throw out the advice of staff on the basis of the in- formation of a 15-minute delegation.” Her husband, Bob, who succeeded her on the board, said that it was “totally immoral” to proceed with the agreement. Under Section 107 of the Landlord and Tenant Act, any landlord found guilty of “witholding reasonable supply of any vital service, such as heat, fuel, elec- tricity, gas, water, or other vital ser- vice" is subject to a fine of up to $2,000. a memberr of the delegation “He can't say he can‘t pay the bills,” said McGee. “Because I’d say he’s not paying the bills."
