Councillor Marcel Brunello said police need more t Ue -te monitor the area and examine «W. fehavenot stopped the pro- ceas, we have begun the procesa» he said. Fox said ho wants the issue te b. dealt with again at a futr meeting, and te increase moni- toring by police and teachers. According te the operati*onsî committee reort there is very littié traffie in ii. area except when parents drop off or pick up their children compriaing the majority of the traffic flow at the achool. In order te have a crossing guard, chldren would have te b. dâelaryied 83 per cent of the tne. A staff survey found only 56 per cent of the children had te wait te cross the street. .............. Town will go ahead with the controversial policy. «Whitby residents made it clear their feelings on this,'» says Mayor Tom Edwards. Residents argued at the. tue that user, fees would create a financial burden on parents whose children participate in aummer sports. Once the user f.. is accepted and passed,, it would increas. by 10 per cent annuaily, they said. A ptition of 2,000 signatures was formed a year ago by those epposed to user fees for youths. ions upcomingý approximateiy 100 boys between ages 6 and, 14., Big Brothersý will contact the public by telephone ln January for information and piedge aheets.

Moôrris says the board should compensate with- money- or in lieu-tume any teachers asked te. corne in during the summer or theholida s. But Olaman notes that tea- chers are paid- by salary,. not by the hour, and their pay is avera- ged over the year. "The teachiers on our board are. an excellent group and.the salaryT increase reflects that» he eaya. Tiie position'of l~Ie work-te- rule has been taken' froni the union level and does not neceas- ary reflect the attitudes of the individual teacheis, lho says. Qidman says the. board' is expecting a two per cent increase in funding froni the provincial- government - if there is any mncrease at al- and: the tea- chers' package would rais. this budget-by 17 per cent. «W. are in desperate economic, tumes,» hho says.

A fact-?indig. report by' Dr. John Valiquette for the associa- tion's French teachers' affiliate =tates that tIi. board would not only have te increase taxes te achieve parity but aise eut many of its prograins., The report recommenda. «that the. teachers drop their rîquest for parity- with the eDuham Board of Education secondary teachers.», It aIse statea that,-«using equalized assessment per pupil, figures supplied by the Ministry of Education,_ thé Durham Region Romnan Catholic Separate School Board is',among the ieast able te pay1i coni arionnot only te other area rLards but also in comparison te ail boards, in the Province.» It would be «ttal fiscal irres- ponsibility te ratify the. agree- ment they want,» ho, says.
