12 -~ Orono Weekly Times, Wednesday, August 20.7 1997* . Barry Bryan Associates Ltd., the architectural firm hired by the town to design the 2nd ice pad at the Garnet Richard Complex, presented their preliminary plans to council Monday night. The architeets proposai would have the 2nd ice pad on the West side of the present ice pad. This proposai would change the front entrance of the complex to the north side of the building. Park ing wouid be iocated on the West and the north side of the com- plex. The main entrance to the complex would be changed to corne off County Rd. 57, at the north end of the building, were the gravel ser- vice road is now. There is currently $3.5 million allocated in the bud- get for the 2nd ice pad., A facility that.would meet al the needs of the groups that use the building would cost $5 million to build. Barry Bryan Associates will contin- ue working towards bringing the cost of the building in line with the budget, while stili offering the best possible facility. The Mayor noted that the road work andthe parking problems would have to be addressed, even if a 2nd ice pad was flot to be buiit. Mayor Hamre asked ,the Director of Community Services to give councîl sepa- rate pricing packages on the cost of the building and the road work. It was estimated that the road work alone would cost $.5 million. -Council approved a report thatwould have the munici- pality buy a parcel of land from the MTO to be used as a waste transfer site. The 13 acre site at 178 Darlington- Clarke Townline is presently owned by Ontario Realty Corporation. This parcel of land was used by MTO as a works yard for the past nurn- ber of years primariIy for the maintenance of Hwy #2 in the Clarîngton area. Since the responsibility for- the upkeep of Hwy #2 has beeni transferred to the Regioni of Durham, the land has become surplus. The price tag on this parcel of land is $ 100,000. It is feit by counicil that a waste transfer station will put us in control of our own des- tiny as far as garbage goes. A waste transfer site wîll give the municipality control over their own waste disposai, and it avoids the need for a land- fil site within the municipali- ty. The site will be leased by Canadian Waste Systems, which will generate income from the property. Council hiad to start the a dvertising for a public hear- ing to stop up anid close a portion of Waverly Rd. by the lake. The process hiad to be started now so Ithat the public hearing could be held at the end of Septemnber. If the process was niot started now, council could not make deci- sion on this issue before the end of their mandate. - Mr. Stockwell, CEO of the Municipaiity asked council to approve the advertising for applicants wiiling to be on the Board of Directors of the new Senior's Complex. Mr. Stockwell felt that having a- board of directors inplace would greatly assist staff in negot iations with the Lions Club, the day care centre and people who have made book- ings for the hall. Because council could not agree on the makeup of this board, Mayor Hamre asked Mr. Stockwell to put his pro- posai in writing s0 counicil could review it before adver- tising for p otential board members.

"I'd like to convey our thanks to anglers for their participation in these sur- veys," said Natural Resources Minister Chris Hodgson. '"By donpating a few minutes of their fishing time to answer questions from the survey teaxns, anglers are making a valuable contribution to fish- eries management efforts in the Kawartha Lakes." Preliminary resuits of the surveys from the early fish- ing seasýon, May 10 to June 27, in dicate increased angler participation, improved wall- eye< catch rate, and increased panfish harvest. Angler surveys focus on statistics, and are conducted in the morning, aftemnoon and evening on weekends and during the week, on the lakes and' from the shore. Survey crews contracted by the Ministry interview people while they are fishing. Anglers are asked to participate by answering questions includ- ing the time they started fish- ing and how many fish of each species they have caught, released and kept. The survey crew weighs and measures harvested fish, and collects a sample of scales to deterrnine the age of the fish. 1Survey results allow fish- eries managers to make deci- sions about how best to maintain the fish populations of these popular lakes. "The input of anglers allows us to collect inýforma- Lion which is useful in mak- ing decisions to ensure the sus tainability of these fish- eries," said Hodgson. new challenge WANTED: Enthusiastic youths and adultsvwho crave challenge and excitement!
