Durham council likes three-year term Durham Region council last week voted in favour of municipal elections being held every three years.

Mr. Williams said that he hoped that this would be only the first of a humber of future education-business meetings to be held by the school in the coming years. While at the school, the business community was brought up to date on the current high school pro- grams including the variety of courses available and what is required by a student to graduate. There was also a discussion period at which time members of a panel explained various aspects of the education and work experience needed by the students to obtain employ- ment. During a tour of the school facilities business people had a chance to see the procedure in the machine years, rather than the present two years. In voting to endorse the Peel Region resolution, the main arguments in favour seemed to be that the com- plexities of municipal government are so deman- ding these days that a new councillor barely has time to "learn the ropes" before another election rolls around. - ~ And Oshawa Mayor Jim Potticary said the move to a three-year term could save the tax-payers money. He mentioned that it cost the city of Oshawa $72,000 to hold the last municipal election. However, Brock Mayor Allan McPhail didn't agree with the "learning the ropes' argument stating that at the Regional level the public should have its say more often because of the very complexities.
