WHITBY FREE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, EEBRUARY 22, 1989, PAGE 21 Region planning budget inrae for staff, salaries and studies By Debbie Luchuk Durham Region planning department staff have proposed an increase of 15.1 per cent in the 1989 budget for the depart-. ment'. Staff said the hike would caver the increase in staff, salaries and studies. Total grass expenditures are estimated at almost $2.77-mil- lion for 1989, from just mare than $2-mllhion in 1988. At a recent meeting, planning commissioner Mofeed Michael defended the expenditures on Metro asked to leave Brock.early FROM PAGE 14 Brack West site. The Region had previously askedf Metro ta leave six monthsi l2efore site wsns expected ta reach capacity. That woutd give Dur- ham an additional threo ycars of dumping at the site. "'The six months does not seem likely but one month was men- tioned," Herrema reported to Opinions on councillors' raises FROM PAGE 6 I don't think it is right. If I had known that I would not have voted at ah. Councillors with fuil-time jobs, making $40,00 or $50,00 a year, the mayar (with) the money he comîng in. I am on pension another year. They will b e making more for part-time work than (what) a pensioner gets. It's a big joke. Geraid Doyle Whitby 0-0-0 Working people on average receive and 4- ta S- er cent increase. Sa why should council. lors be any different? D. Robertson RRI,Hampton 0.0-0 Council knew what their salaries were before the election. Madeline Lovelock Whitby 0-0-0 What a sleazy, cowardly way ta get a raise. W.A. Lovelock Whitby 0-0-0 Anyone who would voluntarily take on a second job (eg. Town councillor) would have to be suf- fering from masochism, regard- less of the mnoney offered. I do believe that no one should hold mare than one position with the Town (unless they have no out- side position) and this should be a standard rule. Anyone who works ail day at a steady job and then has ta deal with Important matters that con- cern so many p eople, should have a clear, fresh composure, not exhausted or harassed ta the point where they can't function. 1 have my grievances with the council, too, but I intend ta win fairly and expect them ta res- pond. I'll agree ta this pay raise. but I also expect them ta help me in my hour of need which, by the wy snow.

He said one month could give Durham an additional six months of dumping. t s o "We might even have t s o a temporary lift that will give us a year of dumping," sai d Her- rema.

We're not able ta. move on the (regional) transit study or other studies because we're understaffed," Michael said. Councillors were in favor of increased staffing, but were quick to add that new stafferm and old were going ta be cram- ped in the current office space for planning department.
