Across f rom the Castie Motel - 22 Division St. think about the possibility of replacing Bowmanville's' parking meters. After hearing that the inner mechanisms! of the meters could be in need of replace- ment, the finance and administration committee voted to refer the matter to the town manager for a report. Brian Clark, sales repre- sentative for J. J. MacKay Ltd., told the finance and administration committee Monday that consideration sbould be given to replacing meter mechanisms whîch are the working parts inside each meter. He suggested a grad- ual replacement of the mechanisms. He said the meters had several years of neglect since they were installed in 1970. He said they should last 12 to- 14 years if properly maintained. Otherwise, they wi'l deteriorate more rapidly. "There's littie you can do with old mechanisms and new mechanisms should be considered in the near future," Mr. Clark said. Councillors were told that they will need about 170 new meter mechanisms which will cost $21,000. After hearing Mr. Clark's report, the committee re- quested further revlew of the parking meter program by the town manager.
