Ten of 17 elected Oshawa city council politicians voted just after midnight to abandon the proposed 6.21-mile Centennial Parkway in the Oshawa Creek Valley. It was a crashing finish for an expressway concept that has been on city council's order paper for about five years and one that has provoked just over a year of verbal warfare. that was part of council's bi- monthly legislative sitting. petition rolled into a city coun- cil meeting in a wheelbarrow May 16 last year, civic officials had dug in for a subsequent/|¢atlier r ( ' have a special city council the one-bump - after-another meeting set up at a later date to hear the committee's final report and recommendations. rash of moderate conflicts over issue. THREE-WAY IMPACT Council's decision has at least a three-way impact. --the city will never get a 75 per cent rebate from the pro- vincial government on about $146,000 paid the Damas and Smith Limited -- the consulting firm that whipped up a 60-page functional planning report on the expressway. --city council will embark on a new development course for the jagged- north-south wander- ing creek valley. The new thinking would be based on an- other 60-page report by the con- sulting firm of Project Plan- ning Associates which has rec- om ded impl tation of a scheme to involve an estimated $2,358,241 in parks and recrea-|+ tional development. --there will be municipal talks about setting up a com- mittee to look for a new route for an expressway. ed that the recommendation of the committee to parkway not be voted on until SHOW OF HANDS Hart said people who petitioned against the parkway did not want a plebiscite but in the future if others petitioned for a The end came during a com- vote then it may be satisfac- mittee of the whole meeting|*0ry.

His motion to abandon the parkway in the creek valley on the understanding that studies be pursued to develop the val- ley as a parks and recreation area was carried last Wednes- day in a 5-2 vote. Last night the motion hit 'he civic deck in the same wording but this time it was moved by Ald. John DeHart, the short but fiery crusader who rose into the limelight of' expressway "T'm against the parkway." For a long time John DeHart stood alone as did Controller Margaret Shaw and new civic official Controller Robert Nicol in their demands to have the expressway scuttled in the creek valley. In fact, early in' May Ald. DeHart made a motion that the advisory committee recom- mend to city council that the expressway be scrapped. But the committee turned down his expressway vote. Neither Shaw nor Nicol are members of the committee. Ald. DeHart made the motion to scrap the parkway after Ald. James E. Rundle, a doctor by profession and head of the ad- visory committee, told council he was not prepared to report on the committee's findings. ' QUESTION ASKED his turn as chairman of the|' committee of the whole meet- ing, why the report could not be brought in. Ald. Rundle said last Wed-|i nesday's meeting had not been properly recorded bécause of|i negligence on his part for not calling a secretary to take min- utes. The meeting had been called to have the committee and members in general of city council hear from Michael Pro-|t cheska, a landscape expert, on the proposals of Project Plan- ning Associates and a depart- ment of highways official. legislation. of years." Ald. Mackey said he in the . motion. with the creek valley express- way proposal -- including the downtown merchants, city plan- ning board, Ontario govern- ment officials and the Oshawa and District Labor Council. "I hope we are not postponing inevitable. I again urge you to MISTAKE SEEN always favored the expressway. against it.' Ald. McNeil said he made a commitment in last year's municipal "keep the mill rate down." He said he was definitely "agin" the motion because "if you are going to need a traffic valley, this is the place (the creek valley)." He said the express- way would cost two or th He was repeatedly asked by|times as much leatiat Ald. Gilbert L. Murdoch, taking "somewhere else." He added, south hook-up the valley is the place." cated north-south routes are go- way would be more economi- cal. He would not support the motion because his committee had not made a full report to council, debt and there are "more im- portant things to be done. Ald. Attersley surveyed the council and said, "on our present coun- pected to be presented at the next civic government meeting. | NO RECORDED VOTE | Ald. DeHari's motion was carried without a recorded vote. But when the motion to scrap the parkway was voted on this is how it went: The ten civic officials to favor scrapping were: Mayor Marks, Controllers Shaw, Nicol and Frank McCallum; Alder- men Norman Down, Ruth Best- wick, John DeHart, Charles Mcliveen, William Paynter, Ernest Whiting. It was enough to carry the Controller Ralph Jones, Ald. ;the teachers' cil there are no traffic ex- perts." He said a host of ex- perts had been asked by coun- cil to check back and see if there was any other area in Oshawa that would be cheaper than the creek valley for im- plementation of the express- way plan. Damas and Smith said there wasn't. He said he was expecting a comprehen- sive report from the advisory committee before the recom- mendations came under consid- eration, 'Is there any one here who can say that city officials, Damas and Smith, and govern- ment officials (who favored the project) are not compe- tent?," he asked. "There is no Suggestion 'here that if this is abandoned we would start wid- ening our arterial streets." Ald. Paynter said there were a "'lot of breezes" in his mind as to why the expressway should not fit in the creek val- ley. He said downtown mer- chants have not convinced him the expressway would help boost development of the down- town area. He said he was not in disagreement with Smith- Damas but "I'm convinced that another route and better route can be found." Ald. Whiting said, "'what last year's council did can't have any bearing on what I decide." It was once figured on paper early last May that if city coun- cil had then voted on the expressway in the valley it would have gone through on an approximate vote of 13 to 8. Whiting said that Ald. Atters- ley and Ald. Reardon, veteran council members, had been tun- ing in on the expressway four years and never had a public meeting. 'Then all of a sudden there is a clamber for a meet- ing." He said the last election was a plebiscite on the issue. Ald. Mcllveen felt the city has not developed its one-way street system well enough and that "'no-one has shown me the need" for the expressway. Mayor Marks complimented Ald. Mackey on his presentation against the motion but said there is a real need for use of the valley as a parks and recreation complex. AGAINST MOTION "It hasn't been proven to re that this expressway is needed,"' Con. McCallum said. He said he, too, did not like the word "abandon" in the motion but that. he was not in favor of the creek valley as the site. Con. Shaw said, "I don't believe you have to be a traffic expert to make sense."' She said there is more important road work to be done and if it comes time in three or four years to COUNCIL REJECTS EXPRESSWAY PLAN build an expressway "I'm sure we can find another route. I'm glad this has come to a head." the motion, said the proposed Ontario - Durham College of Applied Arts and Technology is a major reason to keep the parkway in the valley, Without the expressway, which was planned to end at the doorstep of the college (Fifth Concession and Simcoe Street North), the present street system is not big enough to handle 10,000 persons expected to commute to the college daily. LOOK SILLY? "We're going to look pretty silly if an urban renewal study comes back and says you need the parkway," Con. Jones said. The study has just been given federal government approval and would be based on how the city can better develop its down- town area. He said he couldn't see how the city would get the parks and recreational scheme going in the valley when the city has spent a total of only $29,936 on land acquirements for parks purposes since 1963. He noted that $505 was spent in 1963, $331 in 1964, $225 in 1965, $28,868 in year. After several months of salary negotiations, 50 teachers' resig- nations and three emergency meetings last night, the Oshawa Separate School Board and sep- arate school teachers reached a wage settlement. Michael Lisko, chairman of bargaining com- mittee, and Dr. George Sciuk, chairman of the separate school board, agreed to sign a formal contract at 4 p.m. today. The teachers met first at 4 p.m., Monday and drew up what was to be their final wage pro- posal. At 8 p.m. the teachers bar- gaining committee and the board's bargaining committee met. The proposal was dis- cussed and presented to the board at 10 p.m. The board discussed the pro- posal for about an hour until ling committee waited upstairs, Board, Teachers Reach Agreement Trustee Terrance O'Connor moved "the teachers' proposal of June 5, 1967 be accepted as submitted." Trustee Mrs. Winona Clarke seconded the motion. While the teachers bargain- the board voted unanimously to accept the proposal. The new settlement gives level one teachers a base salary of $4,600 and a maximum of $6,500. Only teachers presently within the system can reach the $6,500 figure with newcomers being cut off at $6,100. Level two salaries range from $4,900 to $7,600, Level three from $5,400 to $8,700. Level four from $6,000 to $9,600 and Level five salaries 'will range from $6,500 to $10,100. Increments, which were a main point of dispute, give level Gordon Attersley, Ald. Alice Reardon, Ald. Russell McNeil, Ald. Rundle and Ald. Bruce Mackey spoke against the mo- tion while Ald. Murdoch with- held his thinking. Before the vote Ald. Down said council has a_ lot of projects on its working docket -- "things that we think are useful." He said, "I would like to see this shelved for a couple didn't like the word "abandon" He said too many people had gone along something that may later be keep an escape route open." Ald.

The Oshawa Family Counsel- ling Service, formed recently as a branch of the Children's Aid Society on Centre Street, is operating as a separate ser- vice. It is assisting Oshawa's troubled families in attaining a new understanding, co - ordina- tion of their home lives, and in some cases, giving people in the depths of despair a '"'new lease on life". "At the present time we are only equipped to handle Osh- awa married couples with child- ren", says Frank. C. Johnston, MSW, RSW, the services direct- or. 'We hope', said Mr. John- ston, "'that soon we will be able to expand our service to include the whole of Ontario County and counsel individuals as well as i to a wider range of problems that people face." REFERENCE POLICY Before he became director of the Oshawa Counselling Service, Mr. Johnston was supervisor of the Family Service department of the Winnipeg Children's Aid Society. "People may be referred to our agency by doctors, lawyers, or the clergy, or just walk in off the street if they wish", says Mr. Johnston. Couples who go to the service have a minimum of one or two interwiews to. determine what can be done for them. After that, the amount of counselling depends on the severity of the home situation and urgency of the case. "With some people", said Mr. Johnston, "one or two addition- al interviews is all that is nec- SERVICE TO BE EXPANDED essary. In other cases, counsel- ling for periods up to two or three years may be necessary to achieve good results." Problems which are out of reach of the service for the present time will be referred to other city agencies. "In the future", said Mr. John- ston, '"'we hope to set up pre- marital courses of instruction for couples wishing to be mar- ried, to supplement the coun- selling work being done at the present time by clergymen and physicians." At the present time, the agen- cy is totally supported by the Community Chest, and it's ma- jor problem, as with many oth- er social service organizations, is lack of funds to do a thorough job in the community. The vision of the agency is to help to strengthen family life Family Counselling Service Opens as a whole and already the work has begun. "We are receiving about one new applicant for counselling each day", said Mr. Johnston. "These applications are pro- cessed as quickly as possible and in most cases, the initial interview is held within ope week of the date of applica- tion." A small fee is charged for the counselling service, depen- dant. on the ability of the people concerned to pay it. "But you may be sure", said Mr. Johnston, 'that no one will be turned away because they can't afford to pay a few dol- lars. Every family that applies will be given the same consider- ation, and those families that require the most counselling will get it, regardless of any mone- tary considerations," Brechin detachment OPP, Their overturned and personal articles were lates; \found.
