The forecast approved provides for anticipated growth allowing for freedom in planning for new buildings. It puts less emphasis on bussing elementary school students out of the community they live in â€" as much as five or ten miles to a school designated for that community.

York school trustees approved their tenth annual capital exâ€" penditure forecast and in doing so made a fairly firm commitment on what buildings and maintenance jobs it will spend its money on for the next five years. The preamble to two possible options made it clear that the student population of the Region will not increase within the next five years to the extent a major building program can be justified. It was this set of priorities that split the board into two groups.

These proposals are to be submitted next year and the last of the projects will be complete by July 1981. f o r M a r k h a m wholeheartedly suppo- rted the second option because she felt it was the glarineg obvious choice. “I represent Thornhill and I know how much the people there want a school.

I don‘t think we should be going to the province and asking them for that kind of money for new facilities,“ she said. Her counterpart in Thornhill couldn‘t agree: “Assumption two is not acceptable. Bussing whole communities five or 10 miles is unfair. If you ask, you get. Why shouldn‘t we at least be able to request these funds from the ministry?“ asked Bob McMonagle, who also happens to be chairman of the finance committee.
