This would be subject to the annual audit by the municipality. Before the report was accepted Counillor Entwisle pointed out that the section regarding the Community Centres conflicted with a policy alrea dy passed where- by a, board was to report montbly their financial posit- ion. He said he feit that any board would be delighted to reveal their financial position on a monthly basis to council and that the existing policy was in no way a reflection upon the board. Councillor Wearn pointed out that some boards do flot meet on a mon thly basis and furtber he felt it was an imposition on 'the board to have to make these monthly reports. Councillor Lyall stated that at last council should have one policy and referred bis coun- cil members to the fact that the report from tbe commit- tee was suggesting one thing for the Community Centres Boards and anotber for the Recreation Committees. Al accounts of ali recreation comnmittee both in revenue and payouts are to pass tbrougb tbe town treasurery. Mayor Rîckard Was strong in bis support to rescind the wbetber the region should purchase land and build a centre or renovate existing facilities. Tbe general tend- ency bowever, was in favor of new construction. Count. Ken Mlathieson (Pick- ering) said land sbould be purcbased. An attempt by Pickering to renovate a build- ing for daycare turned into a "lweird nigtmare", be said. The matter should be decid- ed on its own merits, suggest- ed Coun. Ken Lyall (Newcast- le). Coun. Lyall also added the provincial- offer was a pre-, election plank. He cbarged, the province was playing games witb tbe region and tbe region would be entitled to play gamnes in designating locations. Developers should be en- couraged to provide daycare facilities in apartmnent build- ings, Coun. Jim Potticary (Oshawa) suggested. Tbe main aspect to remember in cbhoosing a site, he added, is the proximity to the mothers wbo are going to use it. Community use of schools might be one way to alleviate the problem, Couin. Potticary said. Schoolcbildren, claimed Coun. Lyall could escort their younger brothers or sisters to the day care faci lities if tbey were located near or on the 1wxay to scbools. SMr. Johns said the faciliti es sbould be used at nigbt for purposes otber than bousing cbildren. Neigbbourbood as- socations could bave meet- ings in the buildings or activites- sucb as art lessons former policy wbich required tbe mon tbly reports and with the exception of councillors Entwisle and Lyall the res- cinding motion passed. At tbe present time the Boards are witbout a policy as the recommendation of tbe Commnunity Services Com- mittee for community centres was referred back for furtber study. Gordon R.
