"It‘s central to the community; the washrooms are open; other facilities are there; and lighting is available for nighttime use," explained Klein. Other board members agreed this is a viable idea, and Klein‘s proposal that GARA provide up to $3,000 to make this work, was quickly accepted. A Youth Activity Directory listing community events for young people was the second idea, and the third would be the installation of backâ€" boards for pickâ€"up games of basketâ€" ball at schools. "There is a complete absence of space for spontaneous activities here," said Buchanâ€"Terrell.

The first concerned the Peterson property at 1270 Montrose Abbey Dr. The proposal, which both the Town and GARA endorse, is for the subdivision of the land into 13 lots. The only concerns are for the existing trees â€" many of which will probably have to be removed to make way for the access road. Specific trees would be transplanted to the Town walkway along the north edge of the provperty, and Stock suggested taking some of the others for boulevard planting. Road development following the completion of the Smithâ€"Triller Viaduct was the second item brought up for discussion by Stock. He explained that Town priorities are the "We should continue to support the need for more schools in the province," he began. "and we need high schools to service west Oakville. I propose that we write to the ministry to express this need." His second proposal regarded cutâ€" ting expenditures by building a mega high school bringing together the public and separate boards to share facilities and yet maintain their sepaâ€" rate identities. proposals for high schools in the area. "This megaschool would recogâ€" nize the independence of each board, but they would share mortar," said Klein. "I propose we write to the ministry to express our interest in such a project."

At first, Perkins asked for $6,000 from GARA which would be matched with $6,000 from private donations and $3,000 from the Town. After much discussion, she received approval for a maximum of $3,000 from GARA for this project. She will present a more detailed proposal at a future meeting. A final proposal which generated a lively discussion was for a commuâ€" nity pixelboard, replacing banners, to inform the community of ongoing events. Wendy Perkins, first viceâ€" president, made the proposal, explaining that this would be a perâ€" manent, situated sign with proper landscaping somewhere on Dorval Drive.

For more information about GARA, contact Heather Logan at "Upper Middle Road is the first priority," said Stock, "and Neyagawa Boulevard is the second.

As any partner of a snorer will attest nothing including pillows, earplugs and sony walkmen guarantees either partner a good nights sleep. Most people snore because the airway at the back of the throat constricts when breathing. This causes the back of the mouth to vibrate, making the classical snoring sound. One possible solution to this problem is a new dental device called "Snore Guard". A snore guard looks similar to a orthodontic retainer and functions by holdin the lower jaw forward and allowing a person to breath. Consequently snoring is an indication of improper breathing during sleep and is not healthy for the snorer, spouse or relationship. For those interested, ask your solution may be available. entist.
