Police Notebook by Constable Peter Bramma Community Services VANDALISM Looking through the police file the other day a particular report caught my eye. It concerned damage done to a Boy Scout Camp in the Newcastle area. Vandals Vandals had entered the property property and smashed up the interiors interiors of the buildings and damaged some of the outside outside facilities. Furniture and appliances were smashed. It appears that a hammer and a knife were used to destroy property throughout the camp. Replacement Replacement ' and repair of damaged items is going to cost at least $2,000 plus the labour required to clean up. Who would commit such a mindless act? What do they have against the Boy Sc THE REGIONAL MUNICIPALITY OF DURHAM DURHAM NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING Take notice that the Regional Planning Committee will consider consider at a meeting to be held on: October 1, 1985, at 10:00 a.m. Planning Department Boardroom 105 Consumers Drive, Whitby AN APPLICATION TO AMEND THE OFFICIAL PLAN OF THE FORMER PLANNING AREA OF THE TOWNSHIP OF DARLINGTON The amendment, as submitted by the applicant, proposes to permit approximately 12,000 square feet of retail and personal service uses in the general area indicated on the map below.

It has been shown that 75 per cent of vandals are between the ages seven and eighteen. Let's face it: vandalism is a serious problem in Canada, Canada, and the Newcastle area is no exception. During the month of August there were 41 police reports on acts of vandalism in the Newcastle area (and bear in mind that most vandalism probably goes unreported). Some of the 41 were obvious acts of revenge against individuals, individuals, but by far the greatest majority were without rhyme or reason. The vandals' target is commonly a public building or facility. School buildings seem to suffer most, and usually it is in the form of broken windows or graffiti on the walls. Thousands of dollars a year has to be channelled into repairs rather than the money going towards better school facilities. facilities. While on holiday in Eng land this summer, I was saddened saddened when visiting a public public park where I used to play as a child. Due to continuing continuing vandalism over ten to twenty years, there are no park benches left. Where there was a choice of maybe fifteen benches around that park to enjoy, there are now none. The drinking fountain fountain has long gone. The building intended for sheltering sheltering from the rain is boarded up and covered in graffiti. The washrooms are a disgusting mess. What was once a lovely park is now an ugly eyesore. Children don't play there anymore-- it's been taken over by vandals vandals who are slowly but surely destroying that park. It would be such a shame to see the marvelous facilities that are being built by the Town go the way of my childhood playground. The troubling question all of us must confront is: Why? Is it mindless boredom boredom or anger at society? Authorities Authorities are aware of some of the factors that lead to vandalism: breakdown of the family, parental indifference, indifference, glamorization of crime and violence on T.V. and film, drug abuse, no community feeling in the neighbourhood and school, contempt for persons, and lack of respect for property. Can we combat vandalism? vandalism? Yes! Be alert to what is going on in your neighbourhood. Be a responsible responsible citizen and report report acts of vandalism to the police at the time they are occurring. If you see someone someone about to damage property, property, discourage them. Know what your children are doing and, most importantly, importantly, teach your children to value ALL property, including including their own, while not forgetting to set a good example yourself. So let's work together to prevent vandalism in our Town.
