Development in Courtice which depends on the approv- al of the waterworks projects now has been postponed for at least a year, Coun. Potticary said. To put the waterworks project in the capital budget before the official plan was complete would be "planning by pipes", he said. "Delay it until they get their plans," Coun. Potticary sug- gested. Coun. John Aker (Oshawa), however, told the council that by deferring projects that would be paid by the Ontario Housing Action Program (OHAP), they might not receive any more interest-free loans in the future. Coun. Ivan Hobbs (New- castle) said that the council would "sabotage" the pro- gram in the region by defer- ring the projects.

The budget expenditure was for $21,000 to do pre-engineer- ing work and to buy land near the airport. The projects deferred by the regional council included watermain construction on Bloor Street and Grandview Street in the Townline Road area and Nash Road and a booster pumping station in the Bloor Street area.

When govern- ments can expand their spending without reper- eussions at the polls, there is no limit to their growth. The taxpayer forfeits his only means of redress -- through his MP -- because the extra spending is out- side the tax structure. The system is no longer de- mocratic. Its run by the bureaucracy.
