A"N Empoyes 4ermnde t empaloers eninedne K-Mart exp ansion approved By MICHAEL KNELL Free Press Staff Despite the loud and emotional objections of Corridor Area resients, Whitby Town Council ap- proved the plans for the ex- pansion of the K-Mart Plaza at the corner of Dundas Street West and Kendalwood Road. The eroDansion of the m-fl has the centre of controver- sy in the Iast eight months over the proposed site of a restaurant in the north-east corner of the plaza (the south-west corner of the in- tersection) within a few feet of the historical cairn.

During the three day inquest, the jury was told that the boy was not connec- ted to available heart and pulse monitors during an operation to correct a urogenital problem on January 8, when he suffered from cardiac arrest. After being resuscitated, Havard was transferred to the Hospital for Sîck Children in Toronto where he was pronounced dead the following day. Ananaesthesia speciallat from the Sick Children's Hosptial told the inquest that cardiac arrrest was the resuit of a number of factors that led to the decrease i the function in the heart.
