TBY FREE PRESS, Thursday, Merch .2e 1972, Page 7 Contlnued from Page 2 AI Most a year har haswaited, wvhat a P ityl Most resid- ents have been w a i ting since the early part of 1970 when the fi rst rep- resentations, ref- erencing the com- pletelack of tran- s p ort'ation were made ta the coun- cil1. At this meeting, or shortly after, a decisionwas made a fter rnuch soul- searching and q ues t ion s as to w he ther the cof- fee and doughnuts fund would weath- er the straîn, ta i n sti tute a trans- portation st.udy. No money w as forthcom-ing; how- e v er th ishad to wai't untfl Novernr- ber >970, when Messrs.

When the news- p a pers accorded their usual publ ic- ity to the presen- tation of this rep- ort a t the council meetingof May 19, 1971 , the notice suggested that the me eting would be public; this howv- e v er, was not to be, for the chair- m an soon made i t plain, despite ob- ject ions , tha t there'would flot be and capabilities of this council, p a r t i cuarly so when one realizes that it is now% Feb- ruary 1972, and we have still not had a genera 1 discuss- i on. Even though councilrecog- ni zes the need for tr a nsp or t ation (they m u s t do) as w e a re now bud- geting $15, 000 for t r ansi t needs for year 2001, one hopes that we man- age to spend i tý be- fore 1980.

When one con- sidersthis amount when added to the amountof the pre- vious study, one vvonders why some- thing of amore constructive nat- u re w as n ot at- tempted - such as the termination of the Burley char- ter , thereby ai- lowingGray Coach topick up passen- ge rs t h roughout the town, and ac- t i v e' d iscussions with the "GO" a ut ho r it ies for i mm edi ate exten- sion of theMini- Bus to the area between Oshawa & Bay Ridges.
