And did we mention all that cash youll be blowing in the process? So, if youre tempted to start, ask yourself, Is it worth it? Acton/Georgetown, Friday, September 21, 2007 7 Regional Chair Gary Carr is calling on local candi- dates running in the October 10 provincial election to tell voters how theyll resolve critical issues facing Halton. The candidates are being asked to respond to a questionnaire by Monday as part of the Regions Fairness for Halton campaign. All answers received will be posted on the Regions website, www.halton.ca. We developed the Fairness for Halton campaign to respond to the Provinces Places to Grow plan, which is asking Halton to double its population over the next 25 years, said Carr. Halton currently has a $300-million municipal infrastructure deficit and the provincial growth targets will require an additional $8.6 billion in municipal and provincial infrastruc- ture. As a result we need predictable, committed funding from the Province to ensure that growth does not fall on the backs of existing taxpayers. We think voters need to know what their local candidates will do to address this. Earlier this year regional council adopted a resolu- tion to advise the Province that the region cant accommodate the growth targets specified in the Places to Grow plan unless the Province commits to pro- viding Halton with the neces- sary financial tools and funding commitments. To accommodate the growth, Halton will need a sig- nificant investment in hospital beds, schools, community ser- vices, emergency response services and roadways. Halton voters should consider some key ques- tions as the October 10 election approaches, noted Carr. What will each candidate do to ensure that municipal infrastructure funding programs are target- ed at the infrastructure required to accommodate growth? What will they do to ensure the objectives of the Fairness for Halton campaign are met? Are they willing to vote against their party if it means a better future for Halton? Halton Region chair asks provincial candidates: What will you do for us? HALTON CHAIR GARY CARR The latest release of Census statistics on popula- tion growth underscores the importance of the Fairness for Halton campaign, according to the Region. The numbers show Haltons population grew by 17 per cent between 2001 and 2006, with an increas- ing number of families with youth and children. Our Fairness campaign pushes for assurance that senior levels of government will be full partners in providing the necessary financial tools and funding commitments to address municipal infrastructure needs, said Regional Chair Gary Carr. In order to anticipate what this growth will mean we are under- going a made-in-Halton planning process called Sustainable Halton to determine our human services and transportation, water and waste management infrastructure needs to the year 2031 and beyond. Regional staffs initial review of the Census infor- mation confirmed that Haltons population increase is consistent with the growth targets set by the Province. The data shows the number of two-parent families with children has increased by 17 per cent and lone-parent families by 24 per cent. Region staff indicated these figures highlight that Haltons growing communities will need increased health and social services supporting families, chil- dren and youth, such as child care, schools, hospitals, recreation and more.
