continued from p.1 viously stated the Town came to the aid of the Bronte BIA when it needed help paying for the celebration, but with the understanding that assistance would not be permanent. Burton also said the Town is continuing to support the Canada Day celebration with $25,000 for fireworks. These funds, he said, were not taken from the general tax levy, which all businesses and residents pay, but the levy paid by just Bronte BIA members. In Westjet's recent Best Festivals Contest, Oakville's Canada Day celebration was ranked the seventh best event in Ontario and 25th best in Canada (as of Wednesday, June 26). With the increase in notoriety and size, however, comes increased budgetary pressures, particularly for safety with fireworks, traffic control, and road closures. Sargent said the event was kept afloat this All systems go for Canada Day celebration in Bronte Village year by loyal returning sponsors, new sponsors and Oakville MP Terence Young who succeeded in securing $36,000 in federal funding for the festival. The federal support is $16,000 higher than what was provided last year. "We knew we were in a solid `GO' position. It made a huge difference," said Sargent. "We were very excited to get the call from Oakville MP Terence Young." While some budget cuts had to be made to some programming, Sargent says the Bronte BIA has built a solid Canada Day party for Oakville, which she believes people will enjoy. Bronte BIA chair Mary Roberts also weighed in on the rocky road to this year's birthday bash. "We had some challenges with the short window, and heavy competition for funding from all kinds of festivals and events looking for support.

"The Bronte BIA is the smallest BIA with 200 members and one staff person and a volunteer board. We are small, but mighty. Canada Day is important to Oakville and we don't want to let people down, but we could use more help to relieve some of the pressure." Sargent said admission is free with the exception of some of the KidZone activities. The event will also feature vendors, a beer garden, varied cuisine and live music and entertainments.

Dr. Stephen Phelan, DDS Before David Euale, Director of Education Amy Collard, Chair of the Board NOTICE OF THE PASSING OF AN EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT CHARGES BY-LAW BY THE HALTON DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD TAKE NOTICE that the Halton District School Board passed an Education Development Charges By-law on the 19th day of June, 2013, under Section 257.54 of the Education Act; After One area that is a focus of my practice is to help the many people suffering from advanced tooth wear and erosion. It seems this is a problem that is increasing but it can be treated if caught before it is too late. The main issue if you feel you suffer from any form of tooth wear is protection and prevention. If your tooth wear has been diagnosed at an early stage you can concentrate on preventing further tooth wear with diet modification, protective dental appliances and some limited dental bonding to restore the small areas of attrition or erosion. If tooth wear has progressed to the point that your protective enamel has been worn away and you have exposed your inner dentin you will likely need a more comprehensive solution. The pictures included are an example of a patient with severe attrition, erosion and bite collapse that I solved with a full mouth rehabilitation using porcelain restorations. AND TAKE NOTICE that any person or organization may appeal the By-law to the Ontario Municipal Board under Section 257.65 of the Act by filing with the Secretary of the Halton District School Board on or before the 29th day of July, 2013, a notice of appeal setting out the objection to the By-law and the reasons supporting the objection. The By-law comes into force on June 24, 2013. The education development charges imposed by the By-law are as follows: · · $2,691.00 per dwelling unit in regard to residential development $0.69 per square foot of gross floor area in regard to non-residential development If you suffer from tooth wear or other advanced dental problems, I would like to invite you to call my office to arrange a personal consultation appointment. The education development charges are imposed on all development of lands in the Region of Halton. Accordingly, a key map showing the location of the lands subject to the By-law is not provided as part of this notice.
