A move to attract a college facility to Milton was endorsed by Milton's administration and planning committee recntly. "Milton is ready to astablish a community college," said CAO Manio Belvedere, who has aggressively pursuad tha opportunity. -Mbis community cari support a community collega within our boundanies. Though the invitation is open to any college, Sheridan has heen particularly targeted for either a stand alone campus or satellite facility, possibly on a parcel of land east of Bishop Reding Secondary School on Main Street. That site is already zoned institutional, and bas thé estimated 20 acres needed for a college facility. It's also within a tive-mintite walk of tha Milton GO Station. Taika undarway with laadowner Informai talks have been initiated with dha owner of that land. A Milton collage site has been eagerly embraced by a Poat- Secondary Sub-committea of dha Milton Economic Development Advisory Committee (MEDAC), led by former Chambar of Commerce président Gaorge Takaki. And Henry Joseph and Scott Morgan Joint Research and Planning Services have been commîssioned by dia Town to draw up a faasibility study on tha proposai. Tia ides vas embraced by Town Planning Director Mal Iovio. "It's a really gond neya report," ha told committea. "Wa cen tB cartainly justify dia naad in Milton!" * Part of diat need stems from a change in éducation policy to eradicate OAC, formerly grade 13. That means in 2003, diara will ha a double bulge of graduating atudants looking to, enter post- sacondary éducation. Logical and ideal site for campus Proponants of tha proposai believa Milton is particularly suited to accommodate dia exceas by virtua of being accessible by high- way, GO Transit, and surtounded by populous Peel and Halton municipalities. "It's a logical and idéal place for a campus," ssid Mr. Iovio. "And diara are tramendous spin-offs fromn thase typas of facili- tics"' But to take advantaga of the bulge, actual construction should ha underwsy naxt falI. That makes for a short lime lina, but staff noted contact has alresdy baen established widi Sheridan Collage presidant Shaldon Lavy. 'The collage is really interastad, cartainly Milton it vaîy inter- ested, as well as dia naew development community," said Mayor Gord Krantz. "I hava a gond feeling about this. Wa'va bean vcry aggressive about purauing this and it has raally takan on a lifa of * its own." * Key to dia project is cash ailocated to, Sheridan Collage fromn * dia Pmovince's Supeibuild fund. Usa of the fund along widi a prn- vate and public sactor partnership could halp get dia proposaI off dia ground.
