Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, July 21, 1982, 3 The Kingdom at Newcastle The Northumberland and Newcastle Board of Educa- tion has written the Ministry of education suggesting drastic cuts in both the night school and general interest course and those offered at summer school. The Ministry of Education is withdrawing its financial support to both programs which will take cf- fect this fall. The local Board of Educa- tien has approved a submis- sion from the Board written by Dave Patterson, superintendent of special ser- vices. The statement states that the withdrawal of fun- ding by the Ministry will have arastîc consequences for the non-credit courses also known as general interest courses. The province will continue to finance credit courses both at night school and at sum- mer schools. Patterson states that both non-credit and credit courses do provide a learning oppor- tunity for individuals even ugh it be in différent man- ners. Hfe states that con- sideration should be given to this fact. The Board has decided to offer the same number of courses in the fali of 1982 as it did in the falI of 1981 but the fee schedule will be in- creased to place the cost on a user-pay 'basis for the non- credit courses. In 1981 there were 3,741 students enrolled in the sum- mer school program throughout the board's jurisdiction. 0f this number 459 were enrolled in crocit courses while the remaining 3,322 were enrolled in the general interest courses as sporting activities, cooking, archery, horsemanship and other crafts. Although figures on enrol- ment in the 1982 summer school courses were not available it is believed they will at least be that of 1981 if not higher. Over 1,500 students are enrolled in the first session of the summer school for the month of July in Bowmanville.

Counicil on the other hand deferred a deci- sion as to -what part they will take as to the library deficit of some $34,000 from 1981. In the matter of the operating deficit counicil sup- ported a recomimendation from Counc. Hubbard that council defer its decision until such time as the chairman of the Hydro Liasion committee and the Chief Administrative Of ficer could report on possi- ble funding for the deficit through the impact agree- ment with hydro. Counc. Hamre said she could not sulopor-t the motion to defer a d ecision on the operating deficît while on the other hand approving a capital expenditure for the board.' The decision of allotting $18,000 to the library board was supported by al members of council with ex- ception of Counces. Hamre and Cowman. Council received a letter from the Library Board seek- ing the $18,000 approval as a necessary amount to allow the board to proceed with the access lift. t was poînted that the total cost of the project was $95,900l with the govern- ment granting 75 percent of the cost and the addition of architect fees. Counc. Taylor asked where the remaining monies were to corne from to which Mrs. Barbara Schon, secretary- treasurer of the library board, pointed out that the Board itself would provide some $7,944 from its own funds. She said the board had received additional operating grant from the province this year and monies would be available for the purpose of the access. She also stated that the board was within its budget this year. Counc. Hamre sald ahl she has ever heard from the Board during a number of meetings was the serious pro- blem of underfunding to pro- vidie library service in the community. Now, she said, I find the board does have mnoiies for funding other than their primary servjce to the community. Mrs. Schon said it was a priority to undertake the ac- cess proposal. Counc. Hamre also pointed out that the Town had.in 1980 provided the lîbrary board wth $140,000 in grant whch has riseni to $254»00 in 1982 plus the ap- proved $18.00 tonight. Hamre said counicil had sup- ported the library board for additional funds far beyond that of other boards and departments in the Town. Counc. Hamre' said the board had not provided council with information as to the use of the basement rooms and that such informa- tion was sadly lackînig. Counc. Cowman said a lot of people are saying council has to start to say no. She contended that it appeared that the library board was saying, "we don't care what you want, we are going to do what we want." Counc. Woodyard said it would be foollsh to not take advantage of the provincial monies provided for the ac- cess at the Bowmanville ibrary. But on the other hand he said he had concerns of the project and was not too sure it was at al necessary. Mayor Rickard came out in support of the funding from the Town and said it would be unwise of counceil to turn aside the necessary funding based on the information he has received.
