. 9, 1994 THE OAKVILLE BEAVER ape crisis centre gets more money But Region says ‘no‘ to multicultural group BRAD REAUME ecial to the Beaver Halton regional council narrowâ€" approved oneâ€"time special need nding requests for three of four oups which applied on ‘ednesday. The health and social services mmittee had recommended nds for two of the groups and uncil approved a $2,000 grant to Burlington neighborhood comâ€" ittee championed by Burlington »uncillor, Rob MacIssac. The ant had been turned down at the mmittee level last week. Maclssac explained to council at the grant would be used to ;lp the group incorporate, which alifies them for federal grants d allows them to begin fundraisâ€" g as a nonâ€"profit group. At the committee level, councilâ€" rs agreed the Halton Rape Crisis ‘entre should receive an additional 13,000 above the $3,409 already llotted, and they recommended 1e Multiple Sclerosis Society ceive a grant of $2,000 beyond pe $4,136 already approved. ‘ouncil concurred. Both agencies will use their hditiona] money to finance comâ€" uters. The Halton Rape Crisis ‘entre will also be able to hire an dditional part time staffer. The Halton Multicultural ‘ouncil was turned down for a 2,380 grant to enhance education ervices both at committee and fter a last minute plea by Oakville ouncillor, Bill Logan, Wednesday t council. Logan brought forth his suggesâ€" ion moments after speaking gainst the motion to grant the urlington neighborhood group unding. Logan had told council at they should let the health and ocial services committee do its vork and stand by their decision ot to award funding to that group. _ Burlington councillor, Ralph choltens, spoke against Logan‘s Comments seen as being philosophical (Continued from page 1) involved more of an urging of ifi'dministration to continue to work towards goals over a longer period of time. ; A vote against Scheel‘s proposâ€" als was not necessarily a vote against the content, she added. But you can‘t change such negoâ€" tiated things as the PTR "willy nilly at budget time;" these concerns should be aired during salary negoâ€" tiations, said Siebert. Philosophically, she could understand where Scheel was comâ€" ing from, said Siebert. "You wouldn‘t save any bodies now but the more people you had teaching, the easier it would be to change the PTR in the future," she said. Siebert, in her debut as finance committee chair, said the 1994 budâ€" get process was an extremely diffiâ€" cult one complicated in part by the social contract, Equal Value Assessment, and the lack of Ministry grant information. She Rvas most 1mpressed however, with the "public interest." * "Cuts are going to start impactâ€" ing on the classroom...all the fat is one," said Siebert adding that when she received her list of administration budget cut proposals â€" to meet the 0 to 1% mill rate â€"she believed that "if we do not hear "from the people from this county now, I don‘t know what will be cut next year." "We have to make a stand on what‘s important," she said. | Watch For These Sales Circulars Delivering your message to our market TODAY‘S DELIVERY + Sears * Kraft » Lenscrafters *« Pharma Plus « Woolco *« Moores The Suit People | * Partial Delivery Any day of the week.

"The multicultural council has received: $10,000 this year from Oakville; $17,500 from the province; and $118,000 from the federal government, and councillor > | Logan has the audacity to suggest they get funding from a fourth level of government," Scholtens said. "The answer is no, no, no." Regional council approved funding to the Burlington neighâ€" borhood group 12â€"11 and approved money to the rape crisis centre by the same margin. The grant to the MS Society passed by a slightly larger margin. Each group was represented at last week‘s committee meeting and made a short presentation outlining their reasons for grant requests. "We could spend the next year reviewing all the important requests from worthwhile agenâ€" cies," said regional chair, Peter Pomeroy, at the committee meetâ€" ing, who added that regional staff had already checked the grants. "I support these services with my personal time and money, but some people think regional governâ€" ment should get out of the grants business altogether," he added. "As much as I agree there is a need, I can‘t support any additional grants. Our funding was cut milâ€" lions." Initially, at the committee level, Burlington councillor, Bob Wood, wanted some money given as a oneâ€"time grant and other funds put into the base amount that each agency is granted every year.
