Students have been rehearsing since before Christmas. The second play is "Rose Latulippe' by Edward Devlin. --Oshawa Times Photo The announcement that the Ontario Horasing Corporation will cut its rents in April is good news flor over 100 families who live in subsidized housing in Oshawa. Exactly what it will mean to them individually in terms of dollars and cents will not be known, says: Mrs. K. E. Middle-s 4 mass, the housing authority manager, w til she receives cop- ies of the mew scales. These are geared to ?ncome. The govizrnment announced that a tenazit earning up to $154 a month and paying 26 per cent ' "4 of his income in rent will under the new scheme pay only 16.7 per cent of his income up to $192, which at that maximum is an $8 saving. Those at the other end of the scale, earning $560 a month, will pay 30 per cent of their in- come in rent instead of 31.3 per cent. LOW INCOMES The greatest benefit will be to these in the lowest income brackets, including senior citi- zens, but Oshawa does not at present have any Ontario public housing for senior citizens, But the city does have 115 subsidized houses, mainly three- bedroom dwellings. The rents of those in Christine Crescent and Lomond Street range from about $37.50 to $110 a month, in Carlton Court they are roughly $40 to $125, plus the cost of heat- ing, and in Applewood Acres the rents are about $100 includ- ing heating. The tenants of the last 32 houses taken over still had their old lease, said Mrs. Middlemass, and the rent cuts would not af- fect them until they signed leases with the housing author- ity. Welcoming the announcement, Mrs. Middlemass said they had been promised there would be rent cuts. Tenants had been complaining because the cost of living had risen so steeply, she said. It would take about a month to work out each tenant's rent once the new scales arrived, she said. WAITING LIST There are about 100 families on the waiting list for sub- sidized homes in the city, Twelve more dwellings are ex- pected to be available June 1, she said City welfare administrator, H. C. Chesebrough also expressed pleasure with the news of the rent cuts, but said he had hoped they would be a little more gen- erous. He said rent was one of the biggest problems for people with low incomes, and in Oshawa rents had been going '"'up and up." The OHC rent scales last revised in 1962. were
