"These techniques will reduce the chance of depleted stock and in the case of giant bins, will readily identify special value items for the customer." The grocery area also includes a triple deck refrig- erated counter for such con- ventional dairy products as eggs, margarine, butter, milk, cream, yogurt, etc., and a large ice cream and other frozen desserts freexer unit with doors for easy accessibil- ity. Customers will also find a wide variety of bread of many types, pastries, roils, sweet buns, donuts, cakes, etc., available in the colourful bakery counters. Services In conclusion, Mr. Roberts explained that "the store's 12 electronic checkout lanes and the information booth elect- ronic checkout will ensure quick and efficient customer service." Store hours are 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. Monday to Friday and 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. on Saturday. Region Delays (From Page One) ity, the citizens group asked that the by-law be delayed. Concern Over Wells Thorold Bobier, president of the organization, said in a brief to council that wells in' Courtice are a key concern. "The excavation required to accommodate a pipe of the dimensions prescribed in the by-law will, in itself, in all probablility drain the wells," Mr. Bobier stated. And, if the Courtice citizens have their water supplies depleted by the development, the association said it would like to know how much they would have to pay for regional water and sewer services. The cost of these services could be high, according to the citizens group, because of the fact that the service charges depend on the size of a lot. Since many Courtice residents have large lots, the group is wondering whether or not it will be faced with large water and sewer costs. Who Pays? "Who will pay fd& what and how?" the group asked in the presentation to council. "We wish to go on record as stating that we, the members of the Courtice and Area Citizens Association, are not opposing development. "The residents are resigned to forfeiting their rural way of life in the name of progress but they are not resigned to large financial impositions of an undetermined nature," the brief added.

Concerns over ways i which the nuclear powered facility would affect the envir- onment are mentioned in the report.

Receive Certificates from Lions for Effective Speaking Covering topics ranging from all about sharks to the question of independence for Quebec, a brother and sister came out on top of the Lions' effective speaking competition during Monday evening's meeting. The judges voted Nancy Rietmuller's talk on the future of Quebec along with her impromptu speech on Drug Addiction as the best of the five entries. Her brother, Perry, won second place with a presentation on sharks and an unrehearsed speech on pollution. Both of them are shown above receiving certificates from Lions President John Pogue (left) and Chairman of the effective speaking contest, Bruce Lush. lowing a significant failure in the reactor contaminant and nrotection mechanism is mentioned. Also noted is "uncertainty" about the extent and effect of warm water that would be discharged into Lake Ontario from the Darlington nuclear- powered station. The report from the regional council is in response to a 500-page community impact study released by Ontario Hydro in December of last year. Former Energy Minister Dennis Timbrell asked for comments on the report last year and March 1 was the deadline for receiving the comments. Water Sewers (From Page One) Bowmanvîhle and Newcastle Village. For residents of Newcastle village, there's some good news on a card that bas been distributed with the water and sewer bills for the village. The card says that residents of the village wiii actually pay less each year for water and sewer services until 1980. The Durham region estimates that during 1977 the customer in Newcastle Village who uses 60,000 gallons of water in a year can expect a water and sewer billof $265. However, the bill will be lowered to $195 for $60,000 gallons by 1980. In Bowmanville, the rate for water and sewer customers using 90,000 gallons annual will be $160,000 the Region of Durham estimates. This works out to a quarterly bil of $40.00. In Orono, the annual flat rate paid for water has been estimated at $50 for 1977. Councillor Taylor said Mon- day that water bills can be appealed by anyone who thinks he has been unfairly treated by the billing system. He said that an appeal can be made first to regional staff, OCCASION PERMITS - An announcement week advises that special occasion liquor permits can now be obtained at the local liquor store, without having to go through to Toronto. That will be good news for some people. MAJOR RENOVATIONS - The proprietors of The Castle Hotel have done a complete renovation job on their premises for a tremendous improvement. They will be reopening soon. ready decided that he will not accept a raise. Bowmanville's local coun- cillor Don Allin said that he promised the electors that he was satisfied with the money he was receiving last year. He said he would turn any raise over to some charity. Two Charged Armed Robbery Newcastle OPP have charged two Bowmanville area men with armed robbery following a holdup at a Becker's Milk store in Cour- tice last month., Charged are Kenneth Lodge, 21, of R.R.3 Bowman- ville and Eddison Keaneth Shelley, 21, also of R.R.3, Bowmanville. Police say both men were charged last night. The Becker's store on high- way two in Courtice was robbed Thursday, February 17. Discuss Parking (From Page One) ville, especially in the down- town area. One Way Streets? The possibility of one way streets in the town was mentioned but not all council- lors at Mondays meeting agreed that the one way streets would solve traffic headaches. "I'm anti-one way streets to start with, said Councillor Bob Dykstra. "I don't like the things." Councillor Dykstra said that they can have "a very very detrimental effect on some busnesses.¯ He argued that if the City of Oshawa had not provided off-street parking with its one way streets, the downtown core would have died. The frequently-debated one dollar parking fine was also discussed by members of the finance committee. One Dollar Fines Councillor Bruce Taylor said that he agreed the parking fines should not be a source of revenue but he said that the parking fines should be high enough that motorists would respect it. Mayor Rickard said he wondered whether or not a person could park all day after he had a ticket on his windshield. The question of the one dollar fine has been referred to the town's traffic and parking sub-committee and this time the Chamber of Commerce has been asked to make some comments. Mayor Rickard arrived late at the finance committee meeting Monday afternoon, just before the councillors' thoughts turned to parking and traffic. He explained that he had to drive around the block twice before he could find a place to park.

In other words, if Councillor Allin, Gray and Holliday were given a raise for their work on local council, the same raise would have to go to Mayor Rickard and Regional Coune- iiiors Dykstra, Taylor and Woodyard. Already Given Raise The regional councillors have already been given a raise of $1,000 for 1977. Councillor Woodyard pres- ented a notice of motion at the Monday afternoon council meeting aimed at allowing local councillors to get a raise independently of regional councillors. The notice requests that the provincial goverameat be asked to change the regula- tions in Bill 162 to allow separate raises for the separ- ate council levels. This question wili be de- bated at the next couacil meeting March 7. "Sufficient" "It appears that the amount of money that we get paid at the regional level seems quite sufficient," said Councillor Bob Dykstra Monday. He agreed, however, that there has been a heavier workload placed on the local councillors. The old Bowmaa- ville council had nine mem- bers, Councillor Dykstra pointed out. The new munici- pality of Newcastle operates a much larger area with only seven, le said. Mayor Rickard said he felt that an outside source should evaluate the pay that council- lors should be given. This would relieve councillors of the job of setting their own salary. Won't Accept But, no matter what the town does about salaries, at least one councillor has al-
