"Ail I asked or was te have someone walk the lino with' me to explain their priorities,» he said. Currie said Edwards may have responded te his lettor ince it was te go te, the association's mailing address and not his home, but as of Monday morn- ing, he had net seon a rosponse. Neither Edwards nor Town administrater Bill Wallace were available for comment Monday.

"I understand the needs of kids in this case and it's unfortunate, but there are only se many dol- lars te go round," said Fox. Council's major capital spend- ing priorities caîl for a new fire department headquarters on Taunton Road and an expansion of the Brock Street seniors build- in itby new has two rin ks at Iroqueiîs Park and a single-pad arena in Brooklin. Fox said council investigated the feasiblity ef a privately-fun- ded arena last year, but ne work- able proposaIs came ferward. "If soeone bas an idea rm certainly willing te listen,» he said. Fox said private funding may have te be part of any future facility buiît in Whitby. This could be in the form of a fundraisin g campaign or higher user fées, Foex said. "'As it is right now, taxpayers carry at least 50 per cent of the cost of ice time. Ail tax ayers, people without kids anth ose whese children don't play hockey,» ho said. Fox sumested that the associa- tien considaer reducing the num- ber of games played se that more teams can be created or that house league rather than aIl-star or 'rep' teams be stressed. «They may have te look at internai changes rather than coming te the public,"»lhe said. "imnet saying it's (new faci- lity) net important, but we just don't have it (money)."' Currie said the association's goal is to accommodate as many children as possible at the least cost. Higher user fees would net help the situation, he warned. "The only oes yeu're going te, hurt are the youngsters,» said Curnie. "Men's leagues will find the money, but if you bit miner hockey and figure skating it will hurt families. Currie agreed that council is in a difficult position deciding spending priorities. Ho suggests that a small ico pad, for pleasure skating only, be included with the seniors centre expansion te free up ice time at the arenas. Currie aIse noted that council bas been aware of the need for more facilities for several years. "Thle thing that still hurts is the monoy spent on the (Ross- Iand Rad)receation centre and wbat we get for it," hoe said.
