p2 tribune december 19 1990 york daycare faces subsidy shortages private day care centres throughout the region may be forced to shut down if york doesnt buy more subsidy spaces from private centres said a woodbridge day care centre operator last thursday mary gabrieleskelley of st john basco school in woodbridge told regional officials that verbal commitments from regional staff at the time centres were built suggested the schools would be full of children but now that york region has placed a freeze on subsidized day care due to lack of provincial funding the centres are in financial difficulties mrs gabrieleskelley said we may be forced to close many of the centres which will deny fami lies needing subsidy she added many parents and their children attended the meeting and held up yellow save our spaces signs in childrens handwriting to oppose the freeze mrs gabrieleskelley represents operators at several privateowned day care centres and urged officials to set up a formal committee made up of parents regional staff and politicians to investigate the problem meanwhile yorks community services commissioner peter crichton told officials it would cost taxpayers about 77000 annually for 195 addi tional spaces to reach its space purchasing goal of 1443 spaces but added the child services budget is already operating at a 70000 annual deficit currently there are 500 children waiting for subsidy to attend day care centres but the region has fallen short on its goal of purchasing 1443 spaces markham councillor frank scarpitti said the problem indicates we need to seriously review this whole process we should know by a more fonnal process what status were in councillor scarpitti said mr crichton said in a report that of the 6906 licensed daycare spaces in york regions centres and private facilities 1 248 are subsidized the region could purchase a maximum of 25 per cent of a centres spaces for subsidy but that figure is not guaranteed mr crichton said
