"l'm not tied into any em- ployer other than Uic people of thc Town of Whitby," he said. Industrial developmcnt and job creation are the issues to be fought according to!ý thitumbent. (IIÎ&ight for industrial dvel t and job oppor- tunitiies mst continue and if one way does not prove satisfactory then we must not be afraid to explore new ways, " he said.

"Until we establish the regional headquarters in better accommodation, there's always a danger of it going. to Oshawa," Emm said, "Geographically, there's no difference bet- ween Whitby and Oshawa. 'IWhitby is entitled to its share too. " Emm also indicated that he does flot want Whitby's position in Durham Region to deteriorate. 'II don't want it to deteriorate," he said. "lWe have a strong potential in the region. " Back on the local scene, Emm said tfat he wants the character of the older sec- tions of town to be preser- ved. "lWe will also be having a very close look at the older sections of town and the established street scapes that have been with us since the early county days," he said adding that he wanted them "«incorporated into any plans re any street and sidewalk reconstruction so as to preserve the character of those streets." Emm, who is chairman of town council's operations committee, said that the Brooklin development question must also be solved at the regional level. III will be urging regional council to understand the Town of Whitby's agreement with the developers of the Brooklin village and I will be asking regional council to support, as soçn as possible, a regional decision to im- plement that agreement." The Ashburn resident said that he will seek re-election with the full support of his family. 111 have cnjoyed being a regional councillor and.
