Council unswayed by Dion's opposition The town police will be getting a new $2,981 radar to use to track speeders. Councillor Lionel Dion was the lone opponent of the purchase at Monday's council meeting. Council's senior member pointed out that fines resulting from speeding tickets handed out by the town police are sent to the province. He didn't see why the town should spend nearly $3,000 "to fatten the coffers of the provincial government."' Council was told that the cost of repairing the town's present radar would be over $2,000. Deputy-reeve Frances St. Amant said that "'it is not a matter of where the money goes," but a matter of law and order. The town police need a radar gun to be able to stop drivers from speeding in the town, she said. The clerk informed council that speeders can be charged under municipal bylaws, but that con- victions are more easily gained if the offender is taken to court under the provincial statute. Money for the new radar was included in the 1981 budget. G&M Shoppe, Midland SUMMER SALE!
