"More than anything it proâ€" motes an attitude and encourages people to reach out," said Berry, explaining that the stickers were provided free of charge across Ontario by the Royal Bank through the Good Neigchbours Trust. According to Halton Community Services coâ€"ordinator Joan Kaczmarski, both the Halton Regional Police and the Milton Fire Department have agreed to display the stickers which Oakville Good Neighbors Committee spokesman Christine Berry says promote a "back to basics idea of being a good neighbor." At first the request seemed simâ€" ple enough: assist the awareness campaign of the Good Neighbours Committee by approving the placeâ€" ment of bumper stickers on Townâ€" owned cars and trucks. When it came to buses, however, things got a little sticky. ~ o good deed went undebatâ€" N ed at Town Hall Tuesday night as members of the Community Services Committee discussed the details of allowing bumper stickers on municipal vehiâ€" cles.

OFFER STARTS MON. 2nd, ENDS SAT. 7th MAY Ward 2 councillor Kathy Graham maintained that buses were community property and the Good Neighbours community mesâ€" sage â€" which did not involve any advertising dollars â€" should be allowed. Deputy Town Manager Peter Wagland admitted it was a grey area but since the Royal Bank wasn‘t mentioned.he did not foreâ€" see a problem. Still, he said he would look into the matter. Halton Hills has agreed to put the stickers on vehicles. Burlington declined but offered free advertisâ€" ing space inside vehicles and in display cases owned by the city. Ward 3 councillor Keith Bird, howâ€" ever, wondered whether those who advertise on local buses had excluâ€" sive rights to do so. "It‘s a friendly and warm mesâ€" sage and apropos to Oakville," agreed Ward 6 councillor Bill Logan. The campaign reminds residents that, even if they can‘t volunteer time on a regular basis, "a contriâ€" bution can be made by informal acts of kindness," said Parks and Recreation director Bob Perkins. Ward 4 councillor Mark Brown asked staff to prepare a draft policy to review each application request and impose a sixâ€"month display period. The committee‘s recomendation will be voted on by town council Monday night. The only issue Perkins was conâ€" cerned about was if more local agencies approached the Town with similar requests there might be what he called a "proliferation" of stickers.
