Wh kn ll ce 2 AES 0 SU AINE a "A Family Tradition for 128 Years" PORT PERRY STAR - Tuesday, April 18, 1995 - 11 Township will shelve pick-up plan From Page 1 the municipality blew up in their faces last year. Just before the November municipal election the proposal passed in a 3-2 vote, and negative reac - tion was swift and vehe- ment. People then, and recently at the public meetings, said they are happy with the present system, which sees them taking their own garbage and recycables to two Durham Region transfer stations. The proposal floated by council would have seen residents pay- ing about $40 a year for curbside pick-up, but many people said the pos- sibility of losing the sta- tions was too great a price to pay. And while the town- ship-wide scheme is dead -- again -- that doesn't mean pick-up service won't be extended to com- munities that want it. Councillor Karen Puckrin (Ward 5), also a member of the committee, said she will take the case of residents in her area to council if they ask for the service. Resident of Honey's Beach north of Port Perry have expressed an interest, but didn't deliver that message at the recent public meetings. "If there's an over- whelming majority of peo- ple and if I'm lobbied by them, I would do my best to have them included in the schedule," she said. Mr. Moffatt said that while the pick-up plan was widely rejected, the exercise itself has been a success. for one thing, the people got to express opinions on a controver- sial issue. As well, a num- ber of side issues were given light, and will be examined further by the committee. Among them: 0 A need to continue public awareness cam- paigns on waste reduction in an effort to cut the township's disposal costs, which all residents pay, Grants are announced Durham East MPP Gord Mills announced last week that the prov- ince is providing $162,400 in supplemen- tary funding for munici- pal roads and equip- ment in Scugog and Manvers this year. The grant is part of this year's $704 million in provincial transfers to municipalities an- nounced in February. The transfer amount is the same as last years. Supplementary fund- ing of $52,500 will go to- wards the purchase of a new loader for Manvers Townshipand $109,900 towards the reconstruc- tion of Mary St., Port Perry. whether they receive pick-up service or not; 0 A suggestion that a user-pay scheme be put in place, where residents would be charged accord- ing to the amount of trash they put by the curb each week, and 0 An effort by the town- ship to convince Durham Region to expand the list of recyclable materials accepted at transfers sta- tions and in curbside blue boxes in an effort to cut down the amount of waste going to the landfill site on Ritson Rd.

"I think we sort of broke a little ground," he said. "We had calm public meetings, where people were able to exchange ideas." The committee's report will be going to council within the next couple of weeks, said Mr. Moffatt.
