PAGE $, WEDNESDAY, MAY 18, 1977, WHITBY FREE PRESS Recreaition director says: Second ice pad would get Iroquois Park to break even A second ice pad would put the Iroquois Park on a break-even basis, says Recrea- tion Director Wayne DeVeau. The single pad arena, opened in I1974, is costing, Whitby taxpayers $40,000 a year to operate, says Mr. De Veau, and lie feels this cost could be elirinated by build- ing a second ice pad. Thie arena is being paid for EJCHECK NOW- Do YOU have "Form 103"? A new List of Voters is compîted for every Etection.

There is no way a second ice pad can cover the debt but with a second pad at least the town can corne close to a break-even position, he says. Mr. DeVeau reports that having checked other twin- pad arenas, he has discovered that they ail are breaking even or rnaking money, excluding debentures. There would be no debcnture for the second pad because the r-noney will corne frorn developmnent levies, lie said. Mr. DeVeau says the second pad would be the sainie size as the existing ice surface, but would have seats for only 250 people instead of 1 ,500. It would be classed as a parti- cipation pad, lie said. If construction started in the fail of 1978, it could be ready for use in the fall qf 1979 ,1 says the recreation- director. Mr. 'DeVeau estimates that a second pad, on prime time alone would produce a revenue of $72,450, plus can- teen proceeds. With both pads in use revenue could corne close to $100,000 he estimates. Alreàdy the council has allocated a- considerable amount of rnoney for improve- mients to Iroquois Park, including improvement of drainage, installation of an illurninated events sign, arnounting in total to $25,000, arnd $ 160,000 for basebal and softball diamonds coi- plete with lights.
