He said the growth of his force's coverage will give residents in the affected areas more frequent and complete service. iT, ""The commissioner of the OPP has made it clear to me,' he stated 'that finan- cial constraints by the province make it impossible for his detachments to keep up the type of service they have in the past." He said decreasing man- power and mileage quotas on OPP cruisers have erod- ed the amount of coverage given those areas in Dur- ham not yet served by the regional police. One change in plan was made recently at the insist- ence of Commissioner Lorne Graham of Cannington. Commissioner Graham fought for, and received, a QUALITY PARIS PEALE BAI VPA PMN TE UO Yi A vols 3 [AES EA ie 3 RAPed 5138 Od DRS Vt reduction in the number of phases from seven to six. He said he wanted to see all of Thorah included when the Brock area came into the fold. Previously, the northern half of the old township was not due to be included until the final year, when it would have been the only part of Durham outside the regional force's coverage. Chief Jenkins said finan- cial cutbacks have already forced the transfer of 20 policemen to Orillia from the Brechin OPP. By next year, the 12 who remain will be operating out of a storefront in Beaverton. When Brock comes under regional policing, Canning- ton will become the site of a division headquarters, joining those in Oshawa, Bowmanville, Whitby, Ajax, Pickering and Uxbridge. Commissioner Alan Dewar said the plan shows Durham is taking a big step in com- pleting the idea of regional . government.
