6 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville,,August 4, 1976 Section Two Sav M ne On Diump %Truck Inspection ~« Safety certificates for New- Ins castle's 17 dump trucks May not cost the town as much as th( had been expected. -u This is because it is possible chi for the town to/have its garage $2 lic ensed as an inspection thi station, ch( tre In other words, the town will coi be able to check its own trucks trt and this will be cheaper than al sending them out to private garages for inspection. thà Di rector of public works, cou Jack Dunham, said last week '1 Sthat a Ministry of Transporta- Ser Stion and Communication trui Z~representative told him the shig ;~garage could be licensed as an the Enfoyable Parade Marks Start of Bowmanville Week ipection centre. Tfhe only cost in setting up ie centre would be the urchase of inspection ma- .fns at a price of, iess than 00. It had been estimated iat if the trucks were lecked out at private cen- es, the cost of inspections )u1d run as high as $100 per îck. That would be $1700 for ý17 vehicles. Mir. Dunharn said last week àt he thinks' the inspection ild begin by mid-August. The inspection deadline is jtember 1. By that date, the ucks must carry a wind- elçl sticker to show' that ey have been certified safe. Stùidy Calling For Paring of Plcanners A request for a study of the regional planning and devel- opment, department could resuit in some trimming of, their personnel when it is completed. Oshawa counicillor Bruce, McArthur told the planning and development committee DIRK B-RINKMAN Scugog St., Bowmanville 623-.3621 Lc. on July 27th that he has statistics showing that the department has one employee for every 2,200 people in the region. Coun. McArthur urged the committee "to get on with the job of streamlining the depart- ment" as the percentage is "probable one of the highest" for any region. Acting committee chairman Bill Ballinger (Uxbridge) said the ratio, may be justified because Durham faces heavi- er responsibility than other areas. On Saturday afternoon, July 1l7th, ani enjoyable parade led by pipers who were followed by dozens of decorated bicycles and dressed up youngsters paraded through town to Soper Creek Park. The event marked the opening of the second annual Bowmanville Weeksponsored by Bowmanville Jaycees.
