early in August Need drug education programs In the wake of a study at an Oakville High School showing a disturb ing number of students use alcohol and marl Halton Board of Education has been asked to implement drug education programs Results of the Addle Research Hon study were released last month and Thursday Peter Marks an Acton resident and Swarbrlck both discussed the drug and alcohol problem with trustees Drug and alcohol use by middle and high school students Is a growing Halton and Ontario problem Marks said and educators have a vital role to play In helping stem he tide Marks said the responsibility for the drug and alcohol problem lies with many sectors but urged the board allocate resources and curriculum time for preventative education programs A number of trustees expressed concern about the board stepping In and cutting out other gen ciea who have more resources from the drug education Job They said drug education is the job of the entire community especially public health Ms Swarbrlck said the school system has a great deal of resources already for drug education but priorities must be set and materials organized Director of Education Em Lavender said the study shows drug and alcohol education must start young In grades four five and six because by middle school students are being ex posed to the problem and making Important decisions He said a writing team will be working on a program this summer In answer to a question from Acton Trustee Betty Fisher Ms Swarbrlck said the study didn t delve Into drug use by students who arc active involved In sports and busy with many Interests She said other studies have students wl ore motivated and strong don t use drugs and alcohol as much However she added all students are Introduced to drugs and alcohol and need lion about Ihem even if they don t use them Ms said the study wbb carried out In the best possible con and any exaggeration by students would have been In the number of times they have used a drug She felt not too many cooked the questionnaire Burlington Trustee Elaine worried that if the schools become more involved In drug education other agencies will duck out of their responsibilities Marks replied that if anyone was ducking it was the schools but later said ducking was a poor choice of words He said there is no other way to reach large number of youngs lers with matlon about drugs except through the schools Marks said the ART Is ready to help the schools by giving teachers In struct Ion about drugs and alcohol Trustee Crosier said schools weren ducking the problem because the system just wasn aware of how severe a problem It has Estate affect The building of horn at Highway and the Fifth tine would have an adverse affect on live stock farming operations In the area farmer Clar ence Coles told Halton I ills planning board last Tuesday at a public meeting on the proposal The plan submitted by Almond Development calls for estate residential lots of two acres or more each on the acre parcel of land Twenty five acres of It Is suggested as open space Coles took Issue with a soil report submitted by the applicant which termed the soil marginal for farming and maintaining less than hair of Ihe acres was useable farm land He said crops raised on the land through the years spoke for themselves I think the land compares favorably with land and my land la certainly not marginal he commented The drain on Ihe water table by the addition of homes concerned Colc3 He said existing wells could be depleted and result in a situation liar to Huttonville a few years ago Coles pointed out urban dwellers upon moving lo thecountry acquire a dog and think It can run free In the country Ho con tended they have no idea of the harm dogs can cause cattle or sheep A letter from adjacent farm owner Dennlson Denny objected to the housing development and requested a similar rczonlng of his land If this area was changed to residential Councillor George Maltby contended the homes would farming on lands other Inan Almond become He said the study was impressive and the board must move quickly to include drug and alcohol education programs in its curriculum Crosier observed a lot of money is spent of special education to help solve a critical problem Parents also have a vital role to play and can receive help in guiding their children about drugs and alcohol through the schools Marks said Youngsters need a firmer hand and more direction Trustee Elsie declared She students must be told If they use drugs or drink under age they are breaking the low Youngsters are confused because they are given too many choices and It is time to lay down the law with them Marks acknowledged there are no studies which prove education programs reduce drug and alcohol use but that is no reason to reject preventative education Trustees were told few education jurisdictions In Ontario arc doing more drug education than and is doing very little so nobody knows If ex tensive programs will produce results Georgetown Trustee Barry Shepherd said now Is the time to get moving on preventative lion and needs well trained teachers and outside help to run programs programs must be for the public and parents as well as the students he Oakville Trustee Jackie Cutmore said the drinking age should be hiked back to and the schools must reach not just the students but also parents s public schools should develop drug education programs in conjunction with the separate schools Burlington Trustee Cam Jackson said Lavender warned the board could spend a lot of money on alcohol and drug programs and still home development livestock farming Development land since any farmer would be loathe to set up a cattle or pig operation near homes asked if the developer would be ling to have a waiver put on the deeds making the buyers waive the regulations of the Agricultural Code of Practice He said the Code insists farmers put everything the buck of their farms which is not handy and makes them set barns a certain from any house or boundary line Solicitor Roger Elliott said his client would be quite willing to do that since he felt it would be fair to existing residents Councillor Pat Pat tcrson emphasized the Code of Practice is not law but only a guideline But they re trying to make It law Deputy Planner Bruce McLean explained the town solicitor says such a covenant is not enforce able but acts as a red flag alerting Ihe would be purchasers about a livestock operation be side them Councillor Buss Miller said wilh the com of lots on the former drags trip land and thoir lots the water table in the area would be affected All we would be doing is increasing our problems Soil Consultant Dave Cressman said about half the 100 acres Is class one two or three and would not support a full time farm operation Mayor Peto asked If the soil consult ant was working for Almond Developments Cressman replied Yes I am an agricultural consultant for him Lawyer Roger Elliott contended planning board had the development in principle on May 2 and said without the indication of favorable consideration the land would never have been purchased He said the land was tied up for four or five years be cause the Niagara Escarpment commission was formed and at that lime the land was within their development con area The mayor said he was confused about the whole policy on estate resident land He said ho un derslood there was to be He said this land was stuck out in the middle of Iht country and rem inded planning board the town hod been put to a lot of expense in processing the dragstrlp land but nothing has been built and no taxes have been collected The applicant lawyer said he would undertake lo sign oil necessary agreements and make all payments before all the processing steps ore tak Councillor Harry Levy do no good because they would be fighting the powerful advertising and rock music industries have to fight a sophisticated and ex pensive system A detailed report on future plans for drug and alcohol programs will be presented by the ad ministration later this month presented a motion to be discussed later this month calling for the Ministry of Health to bring drug alcohol and tobacco preventative education programs into the schools because students will be more receptive to outsiders than teachers emphasized Halton Hills council had never ap proved anything for this site He said the planning advisory committee ap proved in principle but the general committee simply and filed and It never went any further This is pre mature because we do not have a policy We have to decide whether we are interested in est ate residential No decision was made al the public meeting but will be discussed again the next planning board meeting
