PL oe a Se to Sie eae tt OSHAWA BA KS BRANTFORD PROPOSAL Are Scho The second city council meet- ing this week saw a second re- corded vote. Council members last night voted 9 to 3 in favor of endors- ine a cite of Rrantfard resolu. tion requesting the Provincial government take immediate ac- tion to assume the entire cost of education. And to consider the advis- ability of replacing all boards of education with a reorganized department of education. In favor of the city of Brant- ford resolution were: Ald. Mar- . garet Shaw, Ald. John Brady, Ald. Cephas Gay, Ald. Alex. Shestowsky, Ald. Alice Reardon, Ald. Richard Donald, Ald; Chris- tine Thomas, Ald. Gordon Attersley and Ald. Clifford Pilkey. ol were: Mayor Lyman Gifford, Ald. Cecil Bint and Ald. Norman Down, Ald, Hayward Murdoch was absent, The city of Brantford resolu- tion was made in view of te ever-increasing percentage of the municipal tax dollar which is being absorbed by education- a! costs, council heard. It urged the Provincial gov- ernment to take immediate action to assume the entire cost of education and to consider the advisability of replacing all boards of education, high school boards, and public school boards with a reorganized de- partment of education. The new department would operate directly under the pro- vincial government so that unli- form policies and standards of education may prevail through- out the province of Ontario. Ald. Clifford Pilkey told coun- ceil the cost of education in Osh- awa in the past five years has INCTeEASEG pUUPiauUaH,. "To the rate-payer this repre- sents an increase of 49 percent over the past five years," he said, "and in the next five years, the cost will have in- creased by 100 percent." The province should assume the entire cost and there should be uniformity of policies, he said, "Reorganization will probably take place at the local level and some of the administration would probably be kept at this level," he told members. Mayor Lyman Gifford, who BY VOTE OF 9 TO 3 Boards On Way Out? opposed the resolution in the recorded vote said, "we have a good board of education in the city and to endorse this would be 'a slap in the face'." Ald. Christine Thomas sug- gexec Wai o iver gv tevee council to the board of educa- tion indicating that it is no re- flection on them. "What council wants is a re- organization for the entire prov- ince," Mrs. Thomas said. The view was supported by Ald. Clifford Pilkey who said, "this is no reflection on the present board or any past boards of education." Ald. John Brady told council members this resolution does not criticize our board of edu- cation in any way. nil ssc z . bil ss halter She Oshawa Cimes s Found Guilty OSHAWA, ONTARIO, FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1966 Thelt Case | === K\ld, Chief Clash Over 'Cycle Club Judge Alex C.

It read: The committee will consider the cost sharing of arterial and collector streets as pvell as sidewalks that are constructed not at the request of the adjacent property own- ers.

Margaret Shaw The alderman said that the club was known as "Satan's Choice' and added that she was called at 2 a.m, on a recent Sunday morning by a resident of Browning street, near where the group meets in a house. The resident charged that members of the group were causing noise, and throwing beer bottles against the front door of the house, she added, Ald, Shaw sald a police of- no trouble. Then she added: "IT went to the police station and had a detective - sergeant accompany me to the area. A | police inspector also visited the }area with us in the same car, | When we stopped a car he ask- jed some young people to get }out, some youngsters from the | house where the motorcycle club }meets. Some of the youngsters |had whiskey bottles in their |purses which were confiscated. | Some of them were taken to the ficer investigated but found into complaints about the mo- torcycle groups. They have laid some charges but nothing of a criminal nature to my know- \ledge"', he said. Ald. Shaw asked Council to take some action. CHIEF'S COMMENT Contacted by long + distance in London Ont. this morning where he was attending a con- | vention, Police Johnson confirm- ed what Ald Donald had said jand added: "We have investigated com- plaints about this group most thoroughly, but we can't turn Oshawa into a police state simp- ly because Ald.

If the county system is to be now together se of regional is to bring to people in the Ove or county system if takes place," said ming 'The problems which might indicate a need for change," he said, "'are those of finance, an- nexation and improper function- ing of the present structure." He said the Department of Municipal Affairs wanted to see these problems in black and white before any changes in the present form of government was considered We have a good system of municipal government at the present time, perhaps as good any on the continent," Dr Cumming said, "but it would be fatal to assume we have the best." What is happening that communities are preciating the need for lonal study. "These studies would not be undertaken alone," said Dr. Cumming, "but would only be done with the co-operation of the -ommunities involved." All the communities in the region would have to be inter ested in the possibility of a better structure to handle prob- the reform Dr. Cum- said a reg started May 26, 1964," he said, TERMS OF REFERENCE One of the difficulties of con- ducting such a study Dr, Cum ming said, was the problem of defining the terms of reference "The department must be sa- tisfied that the groups in the geographical region requesting a study, make it feasible.' "Boundaries present another aspect in determining terms of reference," he said Studies of this nature are not granted automatically but are reviewed by the department to determine the adequacy of the request before it makes a de cision Another point mentioned bj Cumming was that the de- had no dif ficully appointing commissions ers to conduct the studies but they have had. difficulty find- ing suitable people to conduct them "Controlling the expense ~ of studies is also important,' Dr, Cumming said," and when we appoint a commissioner we tell him the size of the region and the time we expect him to com- plete the study." Dr partments so far mer deputy minister said. FULL COSTS "Full cost of the study while it is being conducted is borne by the provincial government and when completed the muni- cipalities pay 50 per cent of the total,"" he said They are not billed right away and some cases a year passes before they have to pay, he told officials, The reason why we make the municipalities pay half the costs," Dr, Cumming sald, "is that is shows us they are in- terested," 'They have just as much to say about the way the study is conducted as we have," he said Total cost for the Carleton county. study was $75,000, he said "Time is important in these these studies," the special adviser said, "some studies in the past have taken so long they are out of date by the time they are completed."
