Ken Lyail said he felt the indication that the cost of the connection would be $500 was not a matter for the Region to specify. He agreed that the Region could order the connection to be made, but claimed that as the "T"/I connections on the sewer line already exist. the Murrays could connect to it on their own property at a far cheaper cost hy having a local plumber do the job., He was insistent that "the Region can't dictate the costs" which he said are spelled out in the former Village bylaw. ,Coun. Lyall suggested that it is up to the Region to determine where they stand before sending such letters to residents an that council should advise the Region the former bylaw, still stands in effect., Coun. Bruce Tink expressed the opinion that the Region's bylawsuperseded the former village bylaw. Coun. 'Ann Cowman sup- g orted Coun. Lyall on the asis that it must be deter- mnined which bylaw bas the authority in the village. respect to a Regional policy to which'the Murray's can apply for an extension. He further suggested that if Coun. Lyall, beîný a regional councillor, doesn t lîke the policy hie should fight at the Regional level to have it changed. AccideOnt Report The fîrst of three weekend traffic accidents in Bowman- ville reported b y Durham Regional Police, Division 16, occurred Ëarly Friday even- ing at 83 Queen Street. The two vehicle mishap involved a 1971 Volkswagen operated by Robert Osmîston of 31 Jane Street and a '64 Pontiac by Michael Stocker of 93 Queen. The Ormiston vehicle appa- rently collided with the Stock- er vehicle, which was parked on the south sile, as a result of the' street's width being redu- ced to one lane. ý The Ormiston vehicle sus- tained $250 damage in the 6: 25 .m collision investigated by ~onstable VanDyke. Two other collisions in town occurred Sunday morning, little more than an hour apart. The first mishap was repor- Truck Lands in Trees Affer Collisiôn Apparently the driver of this '69 Pontiac was not injured when it crossed the medlian about 7:30 a.m. on Jan. 19 and collided with a westbound transport, just-east of the Liberty Street interchange. Theý truck then crossed the median and struck a second eastbound vehicle operated by Harold Price of Leskard Road. In ail the mishap tallied at least $1,700 damage. The above vehicle is a write-off . "Our new Red, White and Blue f are plan makes it easier to save."1 It might look like a shady place to park a truck but it wasn't the intention of the driver, Marcel Dupre of Quebec, to do so on the morning of Jan. 19.

Firstly, Mr. Leighton sug- gested that the town solicitor, Ed McNeely, be consulted on the proposed Darlington Nu- clear Generating Plant for an explanation of t he legal aven- ues open to the town. Council also resolved to contact the Atomic Energy Control Board, the Ministry of Energy and the Ministry of Envirormnent to determine if there are plans to hold public hearings on the proposedi plant and if so, what form they will take. No response will be sent to Ontario Hydro's letter from Mr. Taylor until replies have been received fromf the above authorities., Mr. Taylor's letter was in response to one from council sent to Hydro by council with respect to 'setting up a liason committee. ted at 9:15, a.m. at the intersection of Wellington and George Streets. A 1976 Dodge Van operated by Ralph William Rogers of 54 ChRurch -Street, was north- bound on George, stopped at Wellington but faiI ing, to observe an oncoming vehicle, proceeded into the intersec- tion where it collided with a 1970 Chev. driven by Morley Joseph Oke of 9 Wellington Street. The Rogers' vehicle sus- tained damage of $150 and the Oke vehicle $250 in, the collision investigated b y'Con- stable Dave Smith. Rogers was charged with failing to yeild. At 10:30 a.m. charge of failing to yield again resulted in a collision between a westbound vehicle and one backing from a private drive at 38 Third Street. The westbound vehicle, a '73 Chev. Van driven by Robert Stewart Hilditch of 70 Third Street, collided with a '76 Dodge registered to County Chrysler and driven by Ric- hard J. Budel of 38 Third Street. Damnage to the Hilditch vehicle was estimated at $400 and the other vehicle at $500. Budel was charged with failing to yield from a private drive. Mr. Taylor's letter thanked sugý council f or their correspon- Tay dence and the zît.bwhed resolu,- e;, tion "conveying the desire of the Newcastle -Council to establish a liason committee 'of' Ontario Hydro 'and' Muni- cipal representatives to deal wîth the potential impacts of the construction of t he pro- posed Darlington Generating S tion." Coun. Cowman objected to the wording suggesting the committee woul d be "of Ontario Hydro and Municipal représentatives.

The problem arises when BMHA teams cancel weekend times late in the week and they cannot be re-rented by the weekend. Mr. Neads explained that the BMHA used to follow the practice of filling such can- celled -times themselves* by re-rentin it to others. The difficulty in re-rentîng the time when cancelled late in the week is due to most other teams already havîng games scheduled, often heîng out of town. Mr. Fanning stressed that the reason for reporting the situation was not to be crîtical of the BMHA as they have their own problems, but that there is a need for the Recreation Department to protect themselves from this income loss. BMHA President Keith Shakelton, who was present at the meeting as an observer for the Ratepayers Association, refrained from making much comment on the matter but did note, that when-the BMHA re-rented their cancelled times, the eeved criticism from the Reration Teams about favoritism. He further suggested, to which the committee agreed, that as the BMHA have an ice-time co-ordip ator, Mr. Neads and Mr. Fânning meet with that party to find a Solution. ientl Montréal $14.00 That's just a sampling of CN's new one-way Red coach fares, available ýf you travel at off-peak periods when the trains are Iess crowded.

Ken Lyall questioned the bill being paid by the town and s,uggested that "a gross error, has been made." Couin. Lyall first moved that the bill be returned to the Hall Board to "let th em pay it." Clerk Joe Mcllroy advised however that the payment had received consent of the finance committee and had likely already been p id. To that Couin.
