But as councillor Don Mitchell noted, «As the Region's Plan drags on, I'm not sure how far we can go (with Whitby's plan).» Councillor Marcel Brunelle warned that coinplaoency on Whitby's part mightbe construad as acceptMig those sections of the Durham plan with which it dis- agrees, specifically the fraeway link. "I undarstand the raalitybuI find it repugnant (including the link in Whitby's plan),» said BruneIlla. "Once y u start backing off it bacomes harder to get it eut,"»lie said.
