Community Care treasurer Percy McDonald McDonald told school trustees trustees last week their decision to charge the volunteer group rent for quarters in Port Hope High School means a bleak future. "This decision will greatly jeopardize the survival of Community Care. We will be under a great strain to raise 50 per cent of our budget as required by the Ontario government." Northumberland and Newcastle school trustees trustees voted 11-1 in favor or charging Community Care $200 a month starting next April. This rent will increase to $300 a month by September, 1984. Hollis Arnold and Wilfred Day, Port Hope and Hope Township's representatives, voted in favor of charging rent and abstained, respectively. Reverend Paul Walker, Walker, a member of Community Community Care's board, said he was disappointed disappointed with the school board's reaction to the rent question. Trustees made their decision before last week's meeting meeting and had no intention of being swayed by the group's presentation, he said. "There was clearly no great interest in Community Community Care, what it stands for or what it can do," said Rev, Walker. "We went to the meeting meeting with the expectation of having an opportunity to deal with the issue and that just didn't happen." The Northumberland and Newcastle Board of Education has opted for a cost recovery program program for the use of empty classrooms. Any group using board space in schools must now pay the cost of maintaining that space. Port Hope and Hope Township Community Care has used a classroom classroom at PHHS free of charge since 1981. The school board has delayed delayed implementing rental fees until April 1984 to give the group time to incorporate the cost into its budget.
