With exactly twomon- tbsý to go to municipal polling day, ,only one person has corne for- ward to challenge any of the incumbents of Wbit- by Town Council. Lyndca Buffett, 31, a downtown ha ir stylist bas, announced she will challenge Centre Ward Councillor Barry Evan's bid for re- election. This is t,ýhe second time' that the Green Street resident, bas sought a' seat on Whitby Town Council. An 1980, she ran against incuni- bent West Ward Coun- cillor Joe Bugelli wbo handily defeate d ber earning, 1,602 votes to ber 1271. The other can- didate ini that ward's campaing, -Angie Little- field, earned 391 votes and bas'since moved out of Wbitby. In making ber inten- tions known, Buffett said ber primary goal if elected would be to at- tract more affordable- housing to the town. The current chairman of the Whitby Central Business District Im- provement Area Board called the town's bous- ing policy "ielitist" and the treatment of Port Whitby "sbocking" in a written statement. Buffett said that "ithere isn't enougb af- fordable accommoda- tion"- tbtougbout this part of the region. She has backed the draft municipal .'housing statement in which a consulting firm recom- mended numerous changes be made in housing and engineering standards. "The people who pre- pared the bousing state- ment, as well as myself, believe council must change its elitist plan- ning policies to provide housing for a changing population and a chang- ing situation, " she sai 'd. "«As centre ward coun- cillor,. I would Work for an lncreased finix' Of housing, a m'ix that, would decrease the cost of living for the large number of small, Young families, sinigle-person bouseholds and senior citizens here." Buffett. has also ac- cused .'Witby Town Coundil, of' not only neglec ting- Port Whitby, but abusing'it. III find, it shocking that the ýcommunitY's birthplace doesn't yet, have adequate, sewage facilities and thatit bas had to put up for so long with a- dilapidated 'old bridge that is s0 unsafe the fire department wo nt even use it in emergencies."p, Saying that "it's amazing that it hasn't died a slow death," Buf- fett added: "If a cbild was n eglected and abused to the extent Port Witby has been, the; child would not. re- main with the parents, or, if so, would die a slow death." She also serves as the first vice-president of the Whitby: Chamber of surer.of Witby Arts In- corporated.- Buffett is the only per- son to corne forward and run' against an incui-l bent couficillor to date.'
