4 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, September 8. 1982 Section Two Mayor Speak » Out Question - In what areas do you see room for improvement? Answer -1 think we have to be more positive in our attitude about the Town of Newcastle. One of the real strengths of this municipality is the number of communities we have with their own particular characteristics which lend a certain diversity. If we draw upon these resources they will become one of our greater strengths; We must adapt ourselves to the changing times in which we live through our planning policies and new industrial growth. Question - What is your opinion of the three year council term? Answer -1 have no strong feelings about it. I don't think it's a big issue. Question - Do you think regional government has been a positive move? Answer - Yes. There are shortcomings with regional government but compared to all the alternatives including the old county system it is an improvement. It represents a sharing of assessment, and equalizes opportunities for the development of services throughout the region. Question - Has this council's effectiveness been influenced by personality conflicts? Answer -1 don't think the personality conflicts have been greater in this municipality than other municipalities throughout the province. Question - How do you view the female presence on this council? Answer - To me there is no difference between female and male councillors. Question - Will you be a candidate in the November election and if so for what office? Answer -1 am not prepared to make an announcement yet. Question - From time to time the male members of this council have been accused of voting in a block against the women. Is there any substance to this? Answer -1 don't think so. business directory Health Accountancy Chiropractic Hazards WILLIAM C. HALL B. Comm. Chartered Accountant 35 King St. W., Newcastle Telephone 987-4240 WM.J.H.

The Lung Association says it could be, if you are inhaling , hazardous substances during working hours. For manufacturing workers in particular, certain materials materials in the air can be hazardous to lung health. Dusts, gases, fumes, mists or vapors can contain substances substances that cause lung disease disease or other health problems. problems. Heavy exposure to breathing breathing hazards, such as in accidental accidental spills, explosions or fires may result in immediate acute lung damage. But most exposures to breathing hazards at work are the result of smaller amounts of substances substances inhaled over a long period of time, Work-related chronic diseases usually develop develop slowly -- over years. Symptoms, like shortness of breath, may not be noticed for 20 to 40 yeanrsfter exposure. Smoking adds to the risk of developing lung and other diseases diseases ana since most chronic lung diseases arc difficult to treat or impossible to cure, prevention is vitally important. important. Question - Do you think there is a lack of communication and understanding between council and the public? Answer - Yes. I think this is one of the real shortcomings of municipal office and I would like to see us do something about public relations concerning what council is attempting to accomplish. I would like to try and increase the opportunities for people to express their views to council in a positive manner. It's a two way street. Question - Do you think we should have a new or renovated town hall? Answer -1 think for administrative headquarters we have to look into the projected growth of this municipality and see the place the administrative building would best serve the town in the next 30 years. I question the advisability of spending the estimated amount of money it would cost to renovate the existing town hall. I think there are places in the town that would lend themselves more to this purpose. Question - Do you believe there should be an imposed restriction on campaign spending? Answer - No. I think it should be self imposed. It would be one more regulation to be enforced and we have more regulations than we need at the present time. Question - Do you support the philosophy that development anywhere is better than no development at all? Answer - No. I think it must be in the general interest of the area. Question - Why do you think this particular council has been the target of so much criticism? Answer -1 think we must recognize that Newcastle is a unique municipality. People are still clinging to the good old days and change is difficult for people to accept. Question - Has there been a rift within council this term ? Answer - What may appear to be a rift to some I would rather ignore and concentrate on the positive actions of council and lead them in that direction. Question - Do you think the single standing committee adopted by this council has been effective? Answer - Not as effective as I would like to see it be. A lack of co-ordination has resulted between staff and the elected people and I'm not sure it saves time. Some of our single standing committee meetings have started at 9:00 a.m. and continued well into the evening. There could be a better system. Question - What are your feelings regarding the proposed shopping mall development at Waverley and Base Line Roads? Answer -1 have an open mind on this proposal and I am awaiting a lot more information which I have not yet received. At the present time I don't have the information which would warrant the proposal proceeding right now but that location could offer a real potential for development to service this municipality in the future. Mayor Garnet Rickard has established a political career which spans more than three decades. In 1950 he was elected to the old Darlington council. Two years later he was elevated to the post of deputy reeve where he served for seven years. From 1960-63 he acted as Darlington r s reeve. Mayor Rickard then took an eight year lay-off from the political arena. In 1971 he returned to the Darlington council as deputy reeve and and in 1973 was elected reeve. Mayor Rickard was the first leader of the Town of Newcastle following the formation of regional government. He has served in that capacity to date. Mayor Rickard was defeated in 1963 when he ran as a candidate in the federal election. The 67-year-old mayor was born at R.R. 4, Bowmanville, and attended Shaws Public School and Bowmanville High School. He and his wife Annabelle raised two sons Don and Jim on their farm east of town. The farm operation is primarily concerned with seed growing, cash crops and livestock. Mayor Rickard is also one of the principal owners of the Ceresdale Fertilizer Company at Newcastle village. Question - Do you feel the present .council has been effective? Answer - Answering that question is something like marking your own examination paper. Each council faces different problems and different challenges. We have spent considerable time on administrative matters and have dealt with necessary policy issues. I have tried to adopt a positive attitude about the good things that there are in this municipality. Question - Do you think Newcastle is on the move? Answer - There are à number of good things happening in Newcastle at the present time. Our economic growth compares favourably with other municipalities in the province and I think we are ready to see a number of important things affecting Newcastle take place, so we are moving forward.
