committee chairman Monday night Barry Page asked the town general committee members to set up a new committee with the same goals but under town auspices Supporting Coun Peter Norton motion councillors voted in favor of the formulation of an arts policy by a citizens committee under the auspices of town council They agreed to advertise Interview and appoint a committee of 10 members Including the current council appointee Couo LUIias Bowman Mr Page said the reason he was asking far a new committee was to get people from all walks of life so that the arts they come up won t be seen as a narrow policy by the but as a general policy for the community I want the committee to be seen as a crosssection of ihe community and not just the arts people It the only way you re going to get on and acceptance for policy from the community Mr page claimed He reminded councillors they had all agreed to support and encourage the formulation and implementation of such a policy at the allcandidates meetings in October They also agreed to advertise and select a citizens committee under council Coun John McDonald convinced that an arts policy should be made up by truckers or trade union members or business people or accountants I personally would want to see members of the arts council represent They re the experts rather than truck drivers or accountants I can emphasize more than enough that it should be the arts group making the policy Coun McDonald said The financial obligations to the town concerned Coun Pam Sheldon the moat about the setting up of a new committee by town council I have a feeling we re getting Into some long term financial impacts we re not aware of now because we dont have an arts policy Coun Sheldon said Are you expecting us to make some commitments to financial impacts further down the road I cannot honestly say what financial commitment there is Mr Page replied Council still has the prerogative to soy We like your policy but it costing us too much and please go back Right now the committee would only require space for their meetings and some photocopying and secretarial help he said Mr Page commended the assistance he had so far from town parks and recreation staff Recreation Director Tom Sbepp- said it would be hard for the own not to have any long range financial commitment if the arts policy becomes port of council policy He also painted out that policy was originally Intended to show what the arts community could do for the town but the perception now is what can council do for the arts Coun Sheldon said she hod no objections to providing space and office assistance to the committee but wanted to know why the current committee just diversify its membership under the auspices of the arts council Coun Betty Fisher said she was having difficulty with Mr Pages demand as well She said she see why it was so important that town stamp be on the committee and that the town should advertise and appoint the committee members I don want the arts policy to be seen as a brain child of the Credit Valley Artisans Choral Society etc which it will be seen as If the committee carried on under the auspices of the arts council Mr Page said I want It to be seen as a democratically arrived at policy which is not only concerned with those artsy crafty types He said he had been advised by staff at the Ministry of Citizenship and Culture and Ontario Arts Council not to formulate an arts poilcy under umbrella of Arts Council because it would be seen as a small group s wishes but to get the general public support for it Mayor Miller t think new committee would attract artsy people and said he thought that those applying to be on It would be mostly the same people who were on the firs oris policy committee People not interested in the arts won be applying for it Mayor Miller said Coun Sheldon asked that the policy be circulated to other arts groups once it finished for comments I think they will havr a far better fee for It Ihan us she said HOLY CROSS ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH Maple PASTOR PASTOR Fr Dave Cole Ken For Information cm 877 DENTURE THERAPY CLINIC J Kohan DT 122GuelphSt onHwy 7 GEORGETOWN
