Saoper Creek Is Improved, Through Jcycees1 Pro gram 3owmaniville is already en- '»,ding the benefits of a local Jaycee. praject which' will have its first stage completed soon. The goal of the project is to make the, Saper Creek Park into a parkland and recreation area that both residents and visitors can jusé for picnics and other summer activities. The project began in Nov- ember last year with a Local Initiative Project (LIP) grant for $43,650. But, like all good things that must come to an end, the funds are due to run out at the end of the week with. some work stili to be completed. 1The director of the project, Jaycee Jim Robinson is ai- ready happy with the project because people are showing up in the park and using the facilities and open space for relaxation and recreation. For those who will want to find shade on the blistering days that everyone has waited for so long, the park will provide some fine trees to rest Impasse on A Newcastle town councillor decided ta put, his money where his motion was during a meeting of the town's public works committee Thursday. A five dollar bet between Counillor Ken Lyali and Councillor Ivan Hobbs was the resuit of a discussion about a pedestrian tunnel located in Waverly Gardens., Counillor Ken Lyali made a motion stating that since the tunnel was a matter of concern ta residents of the Waverly Gardens area, the committee should get a legal opinion on whether the tunnel was the responsibility of the Region of, Durham or the Town of Newcastle.' Counillor Hobbs said the lotion wasn't necessary be- -,-,iause he already knew that the tunnel was a town re- sponsibility. At least it would be a responsibility once the Safety Pli * One piece steel re- înfoýrced concrete steps * Safety treads prevent slipping * Maintenance Free al Increases the value of your home -a Expertly replaced in hours lot days, byour trainied îastalla1,tion ccws *Many sizes 0f stsepaý and porches beneath. The people warking on the pro ject have beeji busy planting ash and silver maple trees and there are a number of Manitoba maples already firmly rooted in the park. There are trails for stralling or hiking, depending on a persan's enthusiasm for walk- ing. Although the area is not a heavy forest, a hiker might get the feeling of walking on a nature trail and stilli',e within a short distance of the Bowmanville Visuai Arts Centre at one end and the zoo at the other. The Toronto developing company, L.D.C.M. is also contributing to the pro ject with an offer ta do some landscaping as well as buiid a bridge over the Soper Creek. Some areas in the creek itself were cleared by the crew working on the praject ta allow the stream ta flow smoothly. Other areas were lef t alone to allow those who fish in the creek some good spots ta drop their lines. SThe praject directar aiso expects the stream ta draw Underpass tunnel was turned over ta the town by the developer. Could Save $100 The councillor said he could save the town $100 in legal fees because of that knawledge. Counillor Lyall argued that the tunnel would be the responsibiiity of the region. He said that a praperty owner has.' the rights ta the air above his property and using this same reasaning, the area below the property wauld be the responsiblity of the pro- perty owner as well. Since the Waverly tunnel lies under- neath Durham Regian's Raad 57, the cauncilior argued that it would be a regional re-, sponsibility. Councillar Lyall wanted his motion to seek legal, advice passed ta make sure who was responsibie for the underpass.

During the winter, the crew built a few picnic tables which will be placed in clearings, possibly along with some barbecue pits. In the future, Mr. Robinson said playgraund facilities that would suit the environment of the park could be added. 1Naw that the LIP grant has ended, the Jaycees are far from finished with their in- volvement in the Soper Creek Park. When the prajeet is finished the club will take an the respansibility of maintain- ing the park area alang with the Newcastle Department of Recreation.

Over Councillor Hobbs' objections, the resolution by Councillor Lyall was passed and the winner of the five dollar bet should be knawn as soon as a lawyer has been consulted. Cauncillor Habbs said that when he won the five dollars from Councillor Lyall, he didn't intend ta donate the maney towards the legal costs of the motion. He admitted the bet was very unorthodax but he said he had his reasans for going along with it. Residents Concerned Residents in the Waverly Gardens area are cancerned over the fact that the tunnel has been unlit and the fact that garbage sametimes accum- ulates inside. The tunnel also has a drainage problem. The tunnel came before the works cammittee follôwing a letter fram Froc tar and Red- fern Limited, a group of consulting engineers and plan- ners. The letter stated that the firm of Underwaod and MeLellan had been asked ta submit a design for concrete collars an the pedestrian underpass beneath Durham Road 57. Accarding ta the letter, Underwood and Mc- Lellan submitted the drawing ta Proctor and Redfern, and they asked Underwoad and MeLellan ta get a quotatian on the wark propased in the design. The letter went an ta say that Underwood and McLellan will be meeting with the contractor af the Bowmanville Heights subdivision ta get a price for cansideration by the tawn. The Proctar and Redfern letter was received for in- formation. June 24,1976 mY Extra one milion dollars for 100 bonus prizes of'$10,000 'each.

On Tuesday, June 1, the Hampton Women's Institute scheduled picnic which was to be held at Garden Hi took p lace as a pot-luck luncheon in the CE. Wing due to the weather.

Suggested Use for Eldorado Refuse A motion passed by the Newcastle Council Manday asks that Eldarado Nuclear Limited advise council if consideration is being given ta converting refuse from its production process into fertili- zer. In making the m otion, Councillor Kirk Entwisie said he understood that Eldorado waste products are mastly nitrates --- a prime ingredient in the production of fertilizer. He said people tell him that the Eldorado waste products. could be converted into fer- tilizer. Councillor Lyail said, how- ever, that he didn't want the town ta "play footsie" with Eldorado. He said the Atomic Energy Contrai, Board (AECB) will have ta make a ruling on whether Eldorado's dumping permit at the Port Granby site wiil be renewed at the end of the month. He said he wouid prefer ta see Eldorado matters kept quiet until that time. But Councilior Lyall's motion 'ta table the fertilizer motion was not seconded and a recorded vote was called. When the yeas and nays were counted, council found that ail the counciliors had vated in favor, of the motion except councillor Lyail and the Mayor. Councillor Lyall's disap- proval wasý because of the reasons, already mentioned. Mayor Rickard didn't vote fors or against the motion, sayingM that since he had beenM Section Two The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, June 16, 1976 5 Jehovoh's Wit-nesses CompLee lans for District Convention A.R.
