co ey rs RRR i ete 2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, April 23, 1960 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN THE TIME FOR PLAIN TALK IS HERE City Council stood up firmly this week and said "no" fo an old and dear friend -- the Oshawa Board of Education. Council refused point blank to go along with the board's request for an additional $550,000 debenture on the new R. S. McLaughlin Collegiate, part of which was for an auditorium and swimming pool. The matter is far from settled, but Council put the onus squarely on the board if it wants this extra money --i.e. to go to the voters and ask for it. Finance Chairman E. F. Bastedo (like an indulgent parent who finally realizes that some of the children will have to be acquainted with the facts of life), stated the committee's (and council's) stand without evasion or soft talk. The board would just have to face up to the fact that Council considered this $550,000 request as unnecessary. Council was unanimous in opposing a swimming pool for the school and reportedly opinion was divided on the auditorium request. Mr. Bastedo and his fellow councillors undoubtedly had in mind that the city's debenture debt has reached sizeable proportions (highest per capita for any city in Oshawa's census group in Ontario). They also had in mind that there are other pressing items, such as: Money for an urgently-needed low-rent housing pro- ject (which has been unmercifully kicked around by the senior governments during the past two years). A $900,000 debenture upcoming on the Stevenson's road project. The thousands of dollars needed for public swimming pools to serve children who can't get away in the summer. Money for the sadly-lagging which must be started soon. In addition, the PUC bus drivers are negotiating for a new contract, which is reported to include demands for sizeable pay increases in hourly rates, as well as several other benefits. The time for plain talk on high finance has arrived. Council was not remiss in its duty, at least on this par- ticular occasion. new roads program HEAR CITY TO OPERATE ONE POOL Oshawa mothers who fear that the city will not operate a public swimming pool for children this sum- mer received some good news today: Alderman Christine Thomas, of the city's finance eommittee, said the city will build a new pool at Rotary Park in time for the opening of the swimming season in June. Alderman Thomas said she was making the an- mouncement in reply to "numerous telephone calls from jrate mothers in the past few days." She did not give details about the proposed new pool, but said these would be announced soon, likely at City Council next week. She also said the city could use at least 4 public pools. . Alderman Brady, with some prodding from Mayor Gifford, made a vague but similar statement earlier in the week at a dinner-meeting of the Oshawa Kiwanis Club. A LESSON IN MUNICIPAL POLITICS The Oshawa planning board got a good sound thumping last Monday night, a well-deserved one, too. City Council, by 9 to 3, emphatically rejected the board's bid to extend commercial zoning in a Rossland yoad sector on behalf of Rosslynn Estates Ltd. Here was a case with all the heart throbs of a Lux soap opera, the emo- tional wallop of a Holly- wood eliff-hanger, It was the kind of human, excit- ing drama that rarely un- folds in the sombre Coun- eil Chamber. The 90-minute debate was one of the longest and most vital in the past two years. Speeches were fre- quently punctuated - by audible sighs of surprise and disagreement from the crowded gallery, much to the chagrin of Mayor Lyman Gifford in the chair who mildly rebuked a delegation of 40 Rossland- Stevenson road ratepayers for their open applause when the battle was over, and victory had been won. His Worship appeared to take a dim view of such open Council jubilation by a group of home-owners who refused to sit idly by when the planning board urged re-zoning that would seriously decrease their property values. Lawyer Gilbert Murdoch (calm, reasonable and scholarly) was there on behalf of the applicant, Ross- lynn Estates Ltd., which firm wanted to extend com- mercial zoning on the north side of Rossland road, (between Stevenson road and Fernhill blvd.).- He had done his homework well, but the opposition mounted slowly, surely. Soon it was overwhelming. Alderman Attersley said it was about time that the zoning bylaws were used for the protection of the people. Alderman Thomas thought the planning boards recommendations for re-zoning left too many loose ends. Alderman Walker deflated Mr. Murdoch's baloon further when he got him to admit that his client, J. C. Stephenson, would not use one of his sites to the east for a housing development because Mr. Stephenson was not interested, he said, in such an enterprise. Alderman Walker also turned his big guns on the planning board (which had acted without consulting the traffic committee, of which Mr. Walker is chair- man) despite the important traffic issues involved. Alderman Walker accused the board of too much haste in important matters, urged them to take a longer look at some applications for re-zoning, "It took five years to set up these building by- laws," he said. "We are today getting far too many applications for re-zoning." The 40 Rossland-Stevenson road ratepayers are to be commended for their courageous, uphill fight because they illustrate an important lesson--that taxpayers to- day must organize and make a forceful representation to Council if, and when, they think their sacred rights are being seriously violated. Monday night's delegation was an inspiring sight. It demanded and received a fair hearing, but it is questionable if the results would have been the same had they remained at home and followed the proceed- ings via radio like so many of their fellow citizens. Most of the councillors were impressed by their presence. Doug. Wilson reminded Council that planning (ac- cording to the interpretation of the Ontario Municipal Board) was working for perfect conditions without causing adversity to anyone and that zoning bylaws are to be enforced by the municipality for the welfare and seg)rity of each and every citizen ALD.

For the first time, the 500 adult members of this congregation have a church of their own -- the College Park Seventh-day Adventist Church, with a seating capacity of 1,100. It was built at a cost of $350,000. This is the largest Seventh-day Adventist Church in Canada. It serves as the headquarters church for the Adventist Church in Canada with its membership drawn from the denomination's provincial office staff, national office staff, Oshawa Missionary College, Kingsway Pub- lishing House and the community. The congregation was organized at the time of the founding of the college in Oshawa in 1912. Since that time, members of the congre- gation have worshipped on the college campus in class- rooms, chapels and auditoriums, World membership in the denomination is reported to be in excess of 1,250,000. In Canada the church has 15,000 adult members with more than 179 congregations employing 116 ministers. The church operates two col- leges (Canadian Union College in Lacombe, Alberta, and Oshawa Missionary College.)
