Another blind love affair? It would seem thai Kim Campbell, the sweetheart M.P. frose B.C., witbout saying anything and without doing anything is now floaiing above ail otber possible candidates,, from what ever party, seeking to bold tbe position of Prime Minister. The love affair certainly didn't take long and many are knocking knees trying to get on the band wagon prior to tbe member even making ber announcement of considcring tbe leadersbip of the federai Tory party. There is no doubt tbe announcement will be made of Campbell's intentions and hardly is she to pass up ibis opportunity. But al bas been quiet froni the front and from Campbell. Fortunately there is considerable tme, before tbe next clection and one would hope we get a better insight as to the plans Campbel may have. No doubt the issue with the federal helicopter purchase may give some indication just wbere Campbell stands. It is an issue tbat is going to bave to be deali with prior to the next clection. We bave bad love affairs before, Pierre Trudeau and Bnian Mulroney, being two of recent ycars. Add one more, Bob Rae. The Kendal gas issue It is quite apparent that Ted Yao of the Ontario Municipal Board came donc on the side of sound planning in his decision as to the application for a gas station by Veltri and Son Ltd. la the Village of Kendal. It is inicresting that Ted Yao was also th e board member wbo passed judgement in favour of the Best Road residents in their opposition to tbe establishment of a trucking terminal on Besi Road. Here again the chairman dealt witb the aspect of sound planning. Yao was somewhat critical of the Town of Newcastle when he called ihe proposai premnature and unwisc planning. 0f interest to cnvironmentahists Yao also made mention of the environmcntal sensitivity of tbe arca and the lack of consideration of ibis fact both by the Town and the Ganaraska Conservation Autbority. He spoke of the cumulative cffects of piece-meial development wbich ibis was tbe start in ibe Kendal area, an area yet to have a secondary plan. He also spoke of ëco-system planning. These findings and decision by the 0MB bave to bc somewhat encouraging as tbey point to a weakncss ini the planning process even to-day afier whaî bas been a number of decades in cndeavouring to establish la process and system tbat does provide for good sound planning. Perhaps some headway is being made as to the rclationsbip of developseent and thc environment. Yao's decision and report sbould be required reading for those making decisions as to future planning of tbe community. SAGA and ther egroup of workcrs witb otbers of tbe community seern to have proven a point as 10 their stand in tbis case. Kendal Gas Station appeal won at OMB (Continued from page 1) noted that neither tbe Town of Newcastle nor the Ganaraska Conservation Autbority had ncquired an: envinonseental assessment frose the applicant, despite Uic lack of a sccondary plan for tbe hamîci and a hydrogeological asscssment of Uic hamlet area. Mr. Yao staîed "If Newcastle bas decided to plan in advance and bas insufficient funds to obtain the appropriate information, it scems to me that growth shoultu not take place until that information is available." 0f concern also 10 Uic Board was that Uic applicanî'proposed stops to instaîl and monitor the gas station, wbile very impressive, are beyond the requiremenîs of the current GasolinelHandlîng Code, and therefore quite unenf orceable. SAGA president Katherine Guselle observes "Happily, in ibis case, Mr. Yao listened to and accepted evidence on the applicabiity of Uic new Durham Official Plan tbat bas been approved by Regional Council but not-adopted by Uic Minster of Municipal Affairs. He found evidence ofibe ncw plan to be "admissible, relevant but not determinative", and used it "only as a means of comparison 10 interpret Uic old plan". "SAGA is stil vcry distresscd by Uic adamant refusai of Board member Morley Rosenberg to ailow any discussion ai ail of the new pla n ai the other long hcaring we foughî and losi on Uic Kirby Heights Residential Estates last spring. Mr. Roscnbecrg also applicd several conditions in giving approval, knowing that several of Uicm wcre incapable of iong-term monitoring or. enforcemeni. Mr. Yao, on the other band, believed "il would not be responsible to ailow approval wiiboui any means of assuring continuing maintenance of Uic monitoring devîces." The gas station proposai in 1989 had been recommended for approval by the planning deparimeni of the Town of Newcastle council wbo followed suit with their approval.

No malter how it' is donc, it is a beginning, a celebration of the congregation and thc parents wbo brought their- children, it is a joyous occasion, a celebration of the whole church. Baptisse ouiside thc community of faith is meaningiess, some of you may disagree. However consider Ibis, there is noîbing magical in the rite of Baptism. Baptisse is not an innoculationI against sin, it is not a ticket to cef it expresses, not in thir )r Uh ic ual. In adults it is nbol of faith, Uic presence 1 i our lives.
