He noted that the peak work force is expected to be 2,700 persons in late 1984. Ontario Hydro fielded close to 40 questions ranging from the perils of plutonium to the risks of radiation at a public meeting held last night at the Bowmanville High School Auditorium. The three-hour question and heir relocated store at 343 King St. West in Oshawa with a good answer session sponsored by the h Town of Newcastle featured a panel àree days of bargains.

"With regionalization, the council of the Town of Newcastle, and more especially Durham regional council, seemed to be much more distant and less approachable," stated Mrs. Rundle. She went on to explain that the Social Planning Council satisfies a need for a less intimidating liaison group between the public and regional council. A Bowmanville east beach resident, Edward Gingel, in a bid to inform the panel ofshis objection to the proposed sewage plant construction at the town's lakefront, also cited a lack of communication as one of the major drawbacks of regionalization. "The public apathy displayed here tonight has occurred because people feel approaching regional council is like coming up against a brick wall," said Mr. Gingel. Newtonville resident, Andy Van Bodgom, who is chairman of the Clarke township ratepayers association, told the panel they might consider public apathy toward regional government an indication that "all is not well." Complaining of rising taxes since regionalization, Mr. Van Bodgom said he was not interested in the modernization of Newtonville and that he liked it just the way it was. "Neither do we want our taxes going up to pay for services in another area," he said. "We should learn to live within our YELLOWLEES - Florence. At Oshawa General Hospital, Tuesday, October 30, 1979.

A national survey of waste- water systems indicated that of more than 20 million people only 12 million, or 57 percent, were serviced by sewage treatment plants - a factor which affects our environ- ment.

Secretary of the Newtonville ratepayers association, Dorothy Van Bodgom unleashed a barrage of etiticisms at the panel pertaining to regionalization. "You come around here every five years and ask us what we want -- big deal!" stated Mrs. Van Bodgom. "You have quite a way of conning people," she said. "Regional government has made you too far removed from the people,"ý Mrs. Van Bodgom - explained that her regional representative (Councillor Bill Clarke) was not accessible and hence the formation of the ratepayers association. Following Mrs. Van Bodgom's volley of criticisms, Mr. Potticary stated, "Perhaps we should get off that hill in Whitby and hold our regional council meetings in some of the municipalities." Another solution offered by Mayor Potticary was the possible implementation of a newsletter to be mailed to all residents of Durham Region. "It would cost a bit of money but it would keep people informed," he said. Regionalization of the telephone system within the region was a proposal put to the panel by Rev. E. Schamerhorn, Bowmanville. Since we are unified by way of government, Rev. Schamerhorn maintained a toll free telephone service within the region might be a worthwhile consideration. Questioning what plans the region has for increased senior ,citizen accommodation, John Rice, Bowmanville, told the panel he had prime land in the centre of town which could feasibly be used for this purpose. To date he has been unable to develop any plans for lack of adequate services. "I have lived with escalating property taxes and for the past five years I have been unable to implement any plans for the property since it is not hooked into a sewage system," said Mr. Rice. The youngest speaker to take the floor during the evening was Ron Vice, 22, a resident of township road 16, near Zion. In addition to criticism of higher taxes since regional government, Mr. Vice severely reproached councillors for voting themselves a salary increase. The first thing you did when you took office was vote yourselves a raise in pay and nobody should have the authority to set their own salary, said Mr. Vice. who were on hand to discuss the development of the $6 billion Darlington Nuclear Generating Station. About 200 attended the meeting. Questions asked of Ontario Hydro represented a mixed bag of concerns over the Darlington development. However, many of them focused on the safety of the Darlington project, its necessitv and its cost. Save $500,00? From Page l Town of Newcastle." It also points out that the Northumberland and Newcastle Board of Education has been constituted as a divisional board since it includes a county and a regional municipality. The school board noted that this is a unique combination. Finally, although the Town of Newcastle may have received a tax break if it had been part of the Durham Board in 1979 and perhaps in some of the previous years too, it seems as though it would be to the Town's advantage to remain where it is in the upcoming years. The same preliminary study of the tax Davments for 1979 shows that although there was a $500,000 disadvantagerto belonging to Northumberland and Newcastle school systems in 1979, there could be a benefit of $50,000 by remaining with the present system in the new year. The reason for that is the new equalization factors to be used in calculating assessment in 1980.
