When we think of governâ€" ment, we tend to think of a workforce that is underâ€" worked and overpaid. The reality is that the City‘s workforce, like any organizâ€" ation, tends to be a mixture of highly _ motivated _ public individuals and some (in my experience, a minority), not so motivated. . One _ of _ my priorities on being elected therefore was to move the City‘s organization into a more customer oriented mode. The history of this initiative was covered in a recent report to Council. Probably the most important result of this initiative is the adoption by the employees involved and endorsed by Council on February 2nd, THE CITY‘S CUSTOMER SERVICE â€" INITIATIVE _ â€" Volume 94 Edition 1 Concerts, Festivals, Open Houses, Family Math April 18 â€" May 6 _ TechnoFest May 2 â€" 6 Kickâ€"Off Breakfast Monday, April 18 â€"â€" 7:00 â€" 9:00 a.m. Weston C.Il.) 100 Pine Street (Jane & Lawrence) (CITYTV Breakfast Television on location) City of York Public Schools West Side Mall â€"â€" Theme Days (Eglinton & Caledonia) Monday â€" Design & Technology Challenge Tuesday â€" Arts Centre in the Mall Wednesday â€" Math Activities Day Thursday â€" Writing Fair Friday â€" Secondary Schools "Show & Tell" Seniors‘ Fair Friday, May 6 â€"â€" 1:00 â€" 3:00 p.m. Kane Senior P.S. 300 Kane Avenue The Board of Education for the City of York Call for details 394â€"2270!

THE 1994 BUDGET is nearing completion but we must wait until the Province announces its grants. _ Bad weather _ prevented _ many residents attending the public meeting at Weston Collegiate on January 27th but the majority of those attending supported the _ zero _ tax increase but were reluctant to see services such as fire and library cut back. At this point, it seems that both Metro and the School Boards are opting for a zero tax increase. Also, the City has decided to participate in the Federal infrastructure program â€" one project being a new floor and the replacement of the 50 year old pipes in the Weston Arena. pecial WESTON NEWS & VIEWS vents cont‘d page 3 SATURDAY, OCTOBER 1st 1994 ‘ 7| 0 ALL DAY be FW’”" ud |oo rhe WE A CamnF TO HONOUR MOTHER‘S DAY â€" all Mothers visiting Weston on ANNUAL COMMUNITY YARD SALE â€" SATURDAY MAY 28 ‘934 il ONE PERSO%\JUNK 1S ANOH‘ER PERSONS TREASURE! a af€o sevoine péuts ano®knveinc sagRets rom SALE JOHN STREET PARKING LOT â€" 9:00 am to 2:00 pm WESTON‘S ANNUAL FALL FAIR THE EASTER BUNNY WILL VISIT WESTON "._ QPENING CEREMONIES AND CELEBRATION SATURDAY JUNE 11 ‘94 Friday, May 6th and Saturday, May 7th will receive FREE GIFTS from our Goodwill Ambassadors!
