ay WHITBY (Staff) -- Whitby Town Council approved a reso- lution to accept the two lowest tenders for insurance on town vehicles and property at a spe- cial meeting Thursday night. The resolution, approving the action, was passed with eight councillors in favor and three Insurance on the town's fleet autos will be handled by Zurich Insurance Company, in the amount of $1,553.78.-The fire in- surance coverage will be taken care of by Stuart Roblin in the amount of $354.20. j During the meeting the ques- tion of legality of the tender sub- mitted by Zurich Insurance| Company was questioned in con- nection with Mayor Warren Mowat having declared a 'Con- flict of Interest'. TENDER LEGAL The council was advised the tender was legal atid that His Worship's statement did not in- dicate he had a financial inter- est in the tender. It was explain-| ed, the mayor could have de- clared a 'conflict of interest' for a various number of reasons and the fact that he did so,.did not legally-disqualify the tender. Deputy Reeve George Brooks stated His Worship' owed the council an apology because he did not disclose what the con- 'Zurich' Company: Bids For Insurance; Accepted By Council . | nae flict of interest was. Such an ex- planation would have avoided the trouble that arose, he sug- gested. He said he 'was voting against the tender because no official explanation of the con- flict of interest had been made to the council. ~~" Councillor George Bevan read his previous printed statement, brought forward at the June 7 meeting plus a second state- ment which acknowledged the Zurich tender was in accordance with the Municipal Act, Section 35. TEXT OF STATEMENT "On May 25 at 'a Special Coun- cil Meeting, the Mayor, prior to the opening of the insurance ten- ders, declared a conflict of in- terest. I asked where the ¢on- flict existed, and it was stated that he was the agent for the "On Juhe'7 at a further coun- cil meeting, during the pre-ses- sion 'period from 7 to 8 p.m. he again declared a conflict of in- terest, but stated that he did not submit the tender, such tender having been submitted by the Zurich Company. He also stated that if this tender was going to cause any concern to council he would withdraw it. Has he the right to do this if he did not sub- mit the tender? "At no. time during these two! "|mayor for this meetings of May 25 and June 7, did the mayor tell council that he was not collecting any com- mission for this tender. The only; time he made reference to such a statement was after the June 7 meeting ended, when he in- formed the press that he will re-| ceive no commission from Zur- ich if, and when, the tender is accepted by the town. Up to the present time he has not inform- ed council on this important 'point. "However, if at this date, com- mission is not to be paid to the insurance, think the matter can rést. The matter now becomes legal in accordance with the Municipal Act, Section 35, and the Zurich tender can be accepted. If there was no commission to be paid to the mayor then it would ap- pear that there was no valid reason for his declaring a con- flict of interest in the first place. "Tt is my sincere conviction that the work of municipal coun- cils and the administration of municipalities is becoming more and more complex each year. We need guide lines contained in a Code of Ethics. This parti- cular situation might not have arisen had we had such a Code together with a qualified Board of Ethics to rule on such prob- lems." | cs THE OSHAWA TIMES,' Friday, Kai 11, 1968 e Legion Auxiliary Backs Bus Trip -- WHITBY -- The Royal Cana- uxiliary, Annual Report Presented By County Health Unit WHITBY (Staff) -- A total of 136 cases of communicable dis- ease were reported to the On- tario County Health Unit during 1964, Dr. Margaret Braund, medical officer of health for On- tario County, reported in the unit's annual report.

The announcement was in the form of an endorsement by the more than 1,000 employees who are members of the Civil Servants' Association, Branch 27, Commenting on the support, the president stated the local association has always worked for the best interests of the com- munity, endorsing any project! of this nature when necessary. "They made a great contribu- tion towards the sustenance of Whitby throughout the lean years of the 20's and 30's and are still working for the com- munity in the 60's," he said. "Civil servants have contri- buted their efforts as private citizens and taxpayers; as members of council and served in social or service clubs'"' the association president explained. He further suggested that many of the Ontario hospital em- ployees may transfer to the new hospital, providing valuable ex- perience and skills. The president stated the com- munity can count on the Civil Servants to put their 'shoulders to the wheel', joining their fel- low citizens in the completion of the worthwhile cause, namely} the proposed Whitby General| Hospital. | it very clear that she is serious need of Brownie Lead- ers and would appreciate assise! tance in this important work. able to attend.
