Mifflin and Jordison are two of the 18 striking hydro workers who vow they will con- tinue their fight for wage parity with Ajax Hydro Residential estate on go From page 17 Neighbouring farmers also feared dogs owned by prospective owners in the development would form "packs" and intimidate livestock. But Dr. Mofeed Michael, commis- sioner of planning for Durham stated the issues raised were not planning issues to be dealt with in the subject official plan amendment application, adding that the Ministry of Agriculture and Food, Ministry of Natural Resources and even the Township of Scugog had approved the proposed develop- ment. He stated the size and con- figuration of the lots, which will range from a half hectaire to five hectaires, has taken into account the existing environmental conditions which exist in the area. "This relatively minor degree of development would appear to be ap- propriate and compatible subject to proper building controls which can be addressed at subsequent ap- proval stages," commented Dr. Michael, adding that the Central Lake Ontario Conservation Authori- ty, upon reviewing the proposal and background information, had in- dicated it had no objection to the amendment. In closing Dr. Michael stated "this application has been reviewed and is recommended for approval. The proposal is of size that, coupled with the existing attributes of the site, will create a residential develop- ment which can be assimilated into the existing rural environment of the area."

"Now we start the process for the plan of subdivision and it seems to me that the winter months would be a great time for such a project," smiled Burgess, adding that the unopened road allowance must be brought up to regional road stan- Jars before anything could be one. Lynde House future finally settled From page 17 pays the town $10,000 annually, over and above the $20,000 donated to move the structure. Last month's move from the cor- ner of Dundas and D'Hilier Streets in downtown Whitby cost $37,000 and was the culmination of many months of controversy between thé town and Whitby Historical Society members. The Home, built during the War of 1812, was taken over by the town in July after Whittington Properties announced it was selling the land on . which the home sat. When Whit- tington, the real estate arm of Loblaws, bought the land in the ear- ly "70's, they had given the home to the Historical Society with the stipulation that the home be moved within a two-year period. Now that the lands have been pur- chased by Monarch Construction LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO Ltd., which plans to build 300 homes and a plaza on the property, the word went out .... Lynde House must be moved or demolished. Council felt Cullen Gardens would be a perfect site to house the museum, but society members still contend that some sort of an ar- rangement could have been negotiated with Monarch in order that the house could have remained on the original site. The quarrel still continues, even- though the house has been moved. The society, which owns most of the artifacts from Lynde House say a downtown location would have been preferable to the Cullen site, and have refused to allow any of the artifacts to move with the house. After a $15,000 fire to the home, shortly before it was to be moved, artifacts were removed and are now stored in various locations in Whit- by, Oshawa and Scugog Townships. ADVERTISE YOUR BUSINESS?

PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, September 23, 1986 -- 19 No Hydro talks scheduled untill at least October Talks between striking Whitby Hydro workers and the town's public utilities commission will like- ly not resume until a provincial mediator calls the two sides together again sometime next " month. Spokesmen from both sides are adament they will not sit down to try and end the month-old dispute until they have a mediator present. Six hours of negotiations through a mediator several weeks ago fail- ed to find any agreement on issues still separating the union and Whit- by Hydro. This is the first strike in the history of the hydro commission. The 18 striking workers, members of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 636 have set up picket lines at the Whitby downtown business office and at its Taunton Road warehouse and garage in the North Ward. A spokesman for the striking workers said his fellow members are prepared to cantinue their walkout for as long as it takes to have their demands met. "Nothing has changed what- soever,"' he said, '"'until something moves our people are dug in." He also said Hydro has been for- tunate so far insomuch as there have been no major power cuts. Management employees have been doing the jobs of the strikers, but hydro spokesmen admit that a ma- jor power failure would take twice as long to fix because only two of the 'management employees are cer- tified linesmen. - Whitby Hydro general manager Tom May said the strike had not af- fected day-to-day operations at the facility which serves between 12,000 and 13,000 customers. The utility will, however, have to estimate customer's bills {iis month based on previous monthly statements. May said the Hydro Commission holds it regular meeting tonight and presumes the strike will be one of the topics of conversation. He add- ed that he does not expect the com- mission will approach the union to set up new contract talks. "We left that in the hands of the mediator and no side seems to have moved at all," said May. The main barrier between the two sides is one of money. Linesmen are demanding wage parity with Hydro employees in Ajax, and are also opposed to a wage freeze for employees in the meter department. A Lineman in Whitby earns $15.90 an hour plus benefits compared with $17.28 earned by Ajax Hydro workers. Out of the 18 striking workers, 11 are linemen, five work in the meter department and two in the stockroom. - Brooklin Home Bakery & Delicatessan 61 Baldwin St., Brooklin 655-4951 --G additives or No They're here ...
