By FRANCES NIBLOCK The New Tanner The United Way of Halton Hills has a goal for this year's campaign. It has volunteers who are eager and commit- ted. What it does not have is a leader for the Acton fundraising drive. The glaring absence: of people in the key positions of campaign east and west chairs wasn't mentioned at last Wednesday's United Way campaign kick-off lunch in Georgetown, but the vacan- cies were worrying campaign organizers.

"People are just so busy and it's kind of scary to say that you'll be in charge of helping to raise $240,000," United Way executive direc- tor Kathleen Hayward said in an interview on Monday, adding that the campaign chairs are equally important to the volunteers as they are to the success of the cam- paign. "The campaign workers need people in place that they can report to and feel an al- legiance to, aswell as the United Way. What is the United Way? United Way is people - the volunteers the donors and the community," Hayward said. Having successfully teached last year's goal of $225,000 the campaign team increased this year's goal to $240,000. That amount will allow the United Way to con- tinue to meet the needs of its 19 human care agencies that . provide 53 programs in Halton Hills. United Way sta- tistics show that one in three people in the community was helped last year by the United Way. Lois Fraser of Georgetown Terminal Ware- house drew a huge round of applause at last week's lunch when she handed over a cheque for $2,000 to kick-off the giving. For the third year Halton Hills Community Support and Information (formerly ASSIC) will host a dinner for Acton door-to-door cam- paigners on the residential campaign blitz night, Mon- day, Oct. 5 a blitz night. Af- ter some food and a pep talk canvassers will go door -to- door and then return to Trin- ity United Church to hand in their campaign kits and share coffee and deserts.

How big a sacrifice is that if there wasn't one?" Elliott asked. Town planning director Bruce MacLean said that providing.amenity space is an important issue in the Town's downtown redevel- opment policies and that they'd investigated using an area inside the building for amenity space. "T think that the staff are prepared to become agree- able with the seven units if council moves in a direction to place the dependency of parking being provided off- site. The point being that we don't think you should give up on the amenity issue," MacLean said. Acton Councillor Rick Bonnette, who suggested that Biggs should investigate renting parking from a local landowner in a private deal, asked for a meeting on site. "T'd like to try to help but I don't know how we can... it's a tough decision to make - because I know parking- it could come back and kick us later on," Bonnette said. General committee mem- bers approved the proposed seven units, subject to the parking and amenity issues being settled during the site visit.
