Oshawa, Ont. 728-2021 VAN BEL Courtîce of, Newcastle Village, made his financial report, to the executive board and directors as well as those ratepayers present. The turnout was not as large as expected because of the inclement weather. Mr. Huether's report of finances included the cost of printing membership cards, the cost of rental and key to P.O. box 46, Bowmanville, the official ad- dress of T.O.N.R.A. To this address, people wishing fo write to the Association, may address any and all mail perfaining to the Ratepayers' Assoc. business. Other ex- penses outside of postage were Xeroxcoyng of the informa- tion=sees ready and avaîl- able f0 tax-payers in the Town of Newcastle. The entire expense account was $23067. A motion was made by, Mauricet Bradley that a sav- ings account and a current account for future expenses be held for T.O.N.R.A. by the Association at the Imperial Bank of Commerce so that requests might be made f0 the board for approved expenses. As the various reports of the Executive Commiftee were noted and discussed, unfin- ished business and new busi- .ness, the meeting ran an hour over ifs scheduled time of 10 p.m. The first item on the agenda was the nomination of two more directors Mrs. Ann Cowman and Mrs. R. Lilley. A second motion was made thaf one of the directors be a ssigned to write press re- ports f0 the four local papers-- The Oshawa Times, The Canadian Statesman, The Newcastle Reporter and The Orono Weekly Times. In this manner, ail areas may stay well, informed as to the progress and business dis- cussed af the Ratepayers' Assoc. meetings. The best manner of housing and servicing for a large growfb in population fook up most of the time at the meeting. If was concluded, that the concept must be modified and the 'spili-over' spread more evenly thtough- out the area. A suggestion was made by director Ron Amyotte of Courfice that 18 family units f0 the acre in the proposed area for development might be consiaereci. nus suggestion Concept, was met with strong disap- - proval by the ratepave'rs present and the associa- tion igeral. Overcrowding and hih esity population in cheaper famîly - unit.- type- nousing, it was teit, would degenerate soon into a less than desirable environment. The Ratepayers' Assoc. passed a motion to take a stand in regards to the development in Courtice area. Whereas: a totalcon- cept plan of the type prep'ared bv Murrav V. Jonesand Asso- diates, is far superior tô a L atchwork development po- icy, the association supports such concepts providing that: 1: Roads and parks be s0 designed as to affect as few exisfing dwellings as possible. 2: No decision be made as to population or densities until such time as the public and the association have given ample opportunity for meaningful input. 3: Any decision of the town and the region refleet the input of area residents and-or the association. Jim Robinson read the minutes to date concerning the Courtice Concept Plan meetings in the Courti ce High, School. Mr. Robinson stated on being' questioned that requests to view documents pertaining to the legal aspects of Advisory Boardr meetings were available by contacting Town Clerk Mcllroy at~ Bow- manville's old Toý.vn ýHall, Temperance St., Bowman- ville, 623-3379. Mr. Mcllroy Mr. Robinson stated, bad always been most cooperative in this respect. Lawrence, M.P. was read in answer to a letter of Mr. Bradley's of Feb. 28th regard- ing the shoring-up of the breakwý ater protection at Dar- ling ton Beach. A'letter from Mayor, Garnet Riekard was read, suggesting that furtber study of1 the population growth ,expected and some more input from the residents already in the area were received and considered. H1e suggested a furtber consid- eration period of serveral weeks.

Ratepoyers AdvisoryBoard Holds Lengthy Meeting on T h e In the- Edtor's Mail MeanwPile Back on the Ridge Dear John: 1 have always believed I have a concerned'guardian angel. If a cow gof sick or a sheep died, I could genenally remember back f0 when my angel had suggested this or that and. I had ignored the warning.î Lasf night I, bad a dream. If seemed 1 had this terrible, compulsion f0, dive info this swif t, deep river, swim down fo a sanidbar, wialk back a pafh fhrough the woods and do the same thing again. Under the dock I dived from there were four or five big crocodiles and each time I' swam I looked back, daring fhem f0 follow but trusting in my swimming speed. Aftter each trip I seemed to be shorter and shorter of breath but I sfill kept on. On the lasftnrp back I came upon a tiger in a bunch of cedar' frees. H1e had caught and was eafing a small donkey. The donkey still hald his harness on and the tiger had chewed tbrough the back-, band and one tug f0 get at the' donkey's lungs which I could see were almosf devoured. The donkey looked at me with very sad eyes. I confinued on over a hill f0 a large opening with a small brushpile in the centre. Just then a bunch, of soldier8 'in light blue uniforms and faîl fur ba ts came running after me, shoofing as they The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, April 9, 19753 AREA CODE 705' 277-2261' came. I ran as fast- as 1 could and dived under the brush scratching my cheek in the process. I woke up with my heart poun ding like a drum. 1 got up and crushed ail my cigarettes and flushed them down the toilet, broke 'both my pipes,, put a bandaid on my cheek, which was bleeding, went back to bed and slept like a baby. This morning on my way to work, in the. clear light of dawn I said to myseif; Sandy you are flot Joseph, you ain't got no coloured coat. So I =stopped in atthe Coronation adbravely bought another deck of cigarettes'. Yours truly, Sandy KENDAL, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Hoy have been holidaying at Myrtie Beach with friends.
