"I feel | must forego the pleasure of this re- quest this year," he said. Councillor Hall, who was noticeably upset, said that the response for funds from the public has been excellent as has the response from foundations and business. "It makes it a lot easier to spread it out over a few vears than to do it in one year," he said. But councillor Malcolm was insis- tent that if council were in an easy budget year he would look at it dif- ferently, saying that the hospital can raise the money through depreciation or the Hospital Foun- dation, which has funds for this type purpose. "We have acquired the 'property over the years and we should now take a step and identify the need for 'a new building bv putting some -money aside for future use." he said. : But councillor Lawrence Malcolm | viewed the idea differently saying he was "amazed" that council is preparing to put $100,000 away for this specific use without having a report on the need for such a building. : "Once you've identified the use for this money it can't be used for anything else. It bothers me to see the Municipal Projects Fund divid- ed up like this for different pro- jects." he said : of purchase. The motion for $75,000 over three years, along with another motion by councillor Hall for $25,000 in 1987 were both lost by a margin of 4.3 While councillors Hal], McLaughlin and Mayor Taylor were in favour of both motions, they were defeated by no votes from coun. cillors Malcolm, Cochrane, Christie and tie-breaker Harvey Graham Phantom fashions Wednesday, May 6th is the first of many event days ieading up to the big day, May 27th, Participaction Challenge Day.

"This is just good planning," said councillor Hall. 'It's good to let the people know what we are planning for the future and that one of those projects is the building of a new municipal building." The motion to put money aside for this project was defeated on a recorded vote by 5-2 with councillor Hall and Mayor Taylor the only two in favour.
