who want to run their municipality and who they want to represent them on the York Regional Council after the Oct 5 election Here Is how the mayor expressed it In his weekly chat with The Era There arc only about 16 weeks left until be one of the worked most influential councils in ninny years and I think it is time for citizens to start considering who should sit on that council I also think it is not too soon for people who consider themselves potential candidates to take a long hard look at the job at the goals they must set for themselves If they are to serve effectively and at the sacrifices and rewards such service can bring I dont think its unreasonable to say that there arc some major issues candidates should be prepared to take a stand on oven fight the on What I would really like to see Is a firm commitment an election platform evolve so that this new council will know how it Is going to progress and how it will pay for that progress instead of as with the present council how it is going to stop doing things When I speak of the sacrifices public office entails I refer particularly to the sacrifices of and often time means money I feel either a person must be

endeavours or say IT councillor must be prepared to give up two to three nights a week and be prepared for at least one daytime meeting each week Obviously those holding other positions mayor and regional councillor must S3 At present in Newmarket councillors a year but I think it would be a good idea to revert to the per diem rate When we used that system previously we made 20 a day up to a maximum Now some take days off for their own special projects but continue to collect their pay while the rest of us must carry the workload I would also like to say I feel the people from the new subdivisions should take an interest in the town which have elected to come and live in They should be ready to participate in its management Those who arc thinking of running should be sitting in on council meetings now so if they decide to run they will know whats going on At present wo do not propose to have a ward Rather candidates will This means all representatives on the next council could come from one block of the community The mayor was critical of town councils reac tion to the series of questions he levelled at a committee of council meeting last week He termed negative I believe in planning ho said but when I Mayor hell switched to the town road program for this year He the major project this year Is the rebuilding of Church St The prospects for completion of Church St this summer arc very good This project will he a widening similar to that done on Prospect St and it will also extend Church from Si through to St he said The mayor explained the I9CCC7 roads com mittee set up a fiveyear road program and both Church St and the Cane Parkway were on it In 1969 council had some money left over in its roads budget so it was allotted to design and land acquisition for Church St He said the Cane Parkway was also in the 1969 budget but the operations committee the same one wo have today proposed to scrap the Church and Cane plans and rebuild Ave through Davis Dr This

redevelopment scheme which was to include a new town hall on St when the town were considering buying the Newmarket Motors property The mayor said he blames councils indecisive- for the failure of the proposal Mr a developer would like urgent action on the the Newmarket Motors building so he can make an offer of purchase said the mayor He hopes council will cooperate I would like clarify a misconception many people have about a town Major The Idea that a town council is like any other is false In any business organization there is a boss with the right to fire people for to their duties
