PAGE 8, WEDNESDAY, Al>RIL 2, 1986, WH-ITBY FREFE PRESS FROM PG. i Sewers a big joob would define the problens and recom- mend solutions. Ministry staff have already lndicated to the planning department of Whitby that there are really only two possible solutions to the problem. The firat solution would be the construc- tion of communal sewers with a trunk sewer - connection to Whitby. Under the grant programn the Province of Ontario would pay $3,8000o for a $7,000,000 communal sewer. The Region of Durham would pay bet- ween $1,000,000 and $1,700,000 with Brooklin homeowners and property owners absor- bing the remainder of the cost. Ministry staff has estimated that the communal sewer system would cosî from DURHAM REG ION NON-PROFIT HOUSING CORPORATION THE DURHAM REGION NON-PROFIT HOUSING CORPORATION is seeklng sites for residentlal developments in the Oshawa, Whitby, and Pickering Urban Areas.

The cost for each Brookiin lot is estimated to be $550 for the owner of the lot with the Ministry paying $1,950 for each system. After the Ministry has made it's recommen- dation on which system should be funded, Town council will hold public meetings to discover the public's views on the reconunendations. After the meetings, council will request fun- ding fromn the Miistry of the Environent. Homeowners in at- tendance cornplained ta Ministry officiais about the odor in the town especially in the spring time when the snow is melting. They also complained of the odor given off by Lynde Creek, which some residents said was caused by inadequate septic tanks. Ministry officiais said they would investigate the creek when and if the town carnies out ils study.

Oh, flot the marching bands variety, but the one where ail the familles gel decked out in their new spring finery and waik up and down main street after church to show il off. The ladies hats especially were a sight to behold. Some of the more imaginative ones even used to hit the newspaper front page. They were giorlous creations in a rainbow of hues bedecked with plumes ribbons, fruits and flowers. 0f course no one reaily wore them again except maybe for next Easter. They were elaborate set pieces meant only to brighten the day.. I guess that's why we don't see them anymore - nowadays you can see such headdress any day in the week as todays teens perpetuaiiy parade up and down our shopping mails.
