Ernm asked -parka and recreation director Larry Morrow te explailn the. system wiiicii staff estimate wlll Bave the, Towu $1.5-to-$2 million. The. designlbulld proces Involves the Town hiring Just on. contiactor wiio is'tiien responsible for paying architecta, engineera and construction crewa. To speed up the process, staff will "pr.qualify"- potential candidates from wiom'theY will aoeept proposais for the project and unlike the. tender system, the. lowest bldder will:not n.cessarily b. awarded the. contract. "Any anidail contractors wlll b. lnvited te participate," sald Morrow. "W. will bave a criteria oiihat w. want and it will b. narrowed down to four orflive companls," he said. In response te a question from councilor Judi Longfleld, Morrow sald tbat once staff bave identified the. firme it wants te select fromn, tiiey will report te council. -< "Will tiiere b. an opportunity for tu, public te participate if tiiey feel we're acting in an undeniianded fasiiion7' asked Longfield. "Yes,"- replied Morrow, wiio added tiiat 'tuis system was followed wiien the Rossland Road recreation centre was bufit. Longfleld's queries were ln response te a deputation by pust mayoral candidate Pat Perln. As se did at last weeke comnittee meeting, Perlns warned council that It could b. leavlng Itseof open te crlticism for flot tendering the project lu the usuel way.

Batten, an investor lu a Richimond Hill company,ý Multi-Plex Inc., told operations commttee members last week that hie firm was prepared to construct a four-pad cQmplex that Would' generate more revenue than any publicly-owned facility. But, even though .ho was not present, Batten's aim that bis company -had a' much botter proosl was rejected by councl. "Tii.posslbility ofý goig to private enterprise is somethlng that this council and staff embraced, said councillor Marcel Bruneile. "W. went after al kinds of offers, but as part of the procese it» caused us te ok at our -own operations and concepts," h. said.

In .addition, the. iunlclpality would bave bad te boan the. flrm, $3 million te use for land acquisition and construction costs.
