From the January 12, 2006 pages of The New Tanner One year ago, there was already more known re- quests for the relatively small amount of additional water that Halton planners say can be safely wrung out of Actons well-based water system, and more requests are coming. Town Council wont de- bate who gets that additional water until it gets more in- formation from hopeful developers and Town staff. In other news: Acton Councillor Mike OLeary pleads with Town staff to massage the budget so intolerable Main Street South road conditions can be fixed sooner, not later. Closure of a charity bingo hall in Milton will clip the wings of some members of the Acton Air Cadets, 197 Squadron, forcing some Cadets to miss a trip to the Canadian Ecology Centre. From the January 10, 2002 pages of The New Tanner Five years ago: The num- ber of drunk drivers arrested this holiday season is down dramatically over last year with two motorists charged with impaired driving one of them caught in a R.I.D.E. spot check and the second nabbed by a regular patrol officer in District One, which includes Acton. Two existing homeowners in the Bannockburn subdivi- sion are pleased to hear that their neighbourhood will be completed, despite the bank- ruptcy of the builder. Halton Region continues to track the source of wa- ter taste and discolouration problems reported by some Lakeview subdivision resi- dents since routine swabbing of the water lines several months earlier. Escapes burns from flaming pot of oil Police/Fire Report Acton firefighters say an apartment tenant at 77 Mill Street is lucky to have escaped potentially fatal burns when he carried a burning pot of oil from the stove and threw it out an open window just before 3 p.m. on Saturday. Burning oil splashed from the pot onto furniture and left a scorched trail on the floor from the stove to the window, but the man was not injured. Fire Prevention staff said the man should have turned off the burner if it was safe to do so put a lid on the pot and then called 9-1-1. There were three kitchen fires on the weekend in Halton Hills challenging fire officials to find out what the hell is going on out there, according to one fire prevention officer. B&E An arc welder, valued at $1,500, was stolen during a break-in at Ashs Auto Shop on Highway 25 over the weekend. Police said the thief forced open the garage door to get in. Wallet stolen Two men who visited several social services of- fices in Acton on Friday afternoon are wanted in connection with the theft of a wallet and $35 cash from a purse of a staff member of Links2Care on Mill Street. The suspects first asked to use the washroom at mental health offices in the old Town Hall on Willow Street, and then went to the Links2Care (formerly Halton Hills Community Support and Information) office where they told staff they were waiting for some- one. The men, confronted by staff in an office, ran along Mill Street to Willow Street where they jumped into a car and sped off. The car is a four-door, grey/blue Oldsmobile or Buick. Both men are white, in their early 20s with light brown hair. One man has a brown goatee. Three times lucky? A Dublin Line resident, south of 20 Side Road, lost two mailboxes to vandalism in three days. On New Year s Eve, someone knocked the rural mailbox off the post and the homeowner replaced it, only to have it knocked off again on January 3, by someone wielding a base- ball bat, police said. Damage is $40. Stuck and smashed Vandals smashed the pas- senger side window of a GMC Sierra van that was left overnight behind the Regions Third Line South water treatment plant. Police said the owner got stuck in the mud while off- roading and was forced to leave the truck overnight. When he returned the next day, he found the win- dow broken and the truck had been ransacked. Two flashlights, a pair of sunglasses and loose change with a total value of $40 were stolen. Damage to the truck is estimated at $300. Councillors, town staff consider further measures on Churchill Rd. after several young boys were almost hit by cars and area residents called for a wide range of options to improve safety at a meeting in mid-December. Butrym said he has or- dered additional 40-k/mh speed signs for the area and is looking at possible en- hancements, red and white bars called tiger tails, to add to existing signs. We talked about I think they have to look into two things in the future about pedestrian facilities whether the Town ever constructs a sidewalk on the west side (of Churchill) or adds one in the future and whether the school board will build any walk- way on the MSB campus from Churchill over to the school, Butrym said, adding the sidewalk could cost between $10,000 and $12,000 and suggesting the Acton councillors would be the ones to discuss budget items. The Acton councillors however, are reluctant to comment until a letter up- dating the issues is sent to local residents. Town staff and Acton politicians are considering further measures includ- ing additional signage and extended school crossing guard hours to alleviate on-going traffic safety con- cerns on Churchill Road in the Tanners Drive and Nor- man Avenue vicinity. Town traffic manager Bob Butrym said no decisions were made during a meet- ing on Monday when staff and the Acton councillors discussed other possible traffic control measures and reaffirmed an earlier decision to move a three- way stop to Tanners Drive from Norman Avenue, and ask for additional police presence in the area where some motorists continue to disobey the stop sign. Parents of children cross- ing Churchill to get to McKenzie-Smith Bennett first raised the concerns
