The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, June 4,1986 17 Letter to The Editor Dear Johnny, This is my second letter since I retired from letter writing and is also written under duress. This again concerns concerns the name of our town. The Statesman poll was turned in to the previous council council where their term of office still had two and a half years to run. Being much too busy to be bothered with such a small item it was turned over to "staff" for a report. (Any question that was harder to answer than say "does anyone know what day of the week it is" was turned over to "staff"). Staff didn't get around to doing anything about it so it was conveniently dropped until a couple of weeks ago when Councillor Cowman, for some reason, or other, asked staff for a report since it was now about three years overdue. The report has been presented to council and it showed there were over 2000 replies received, 1900 requesting the name of our town change back to Bowmanville, the other 100 going for Town of Newcastle and other assorted names. Now as the Gallup polls you read about are the result of roughly 1000 inquiries country wide, you will agree this was a terrific response and would be correct to within 1 per cent 999 times out of a thousand. The present council received received this report and the general purpose committee didn't even discuss it, apparently, apparently, believing that 95 per cent of everyone living here are quite clueless. The council, council, apparently, are part of the 5 per cent who think themselves themselves really on the ball. Which is a little odd as I operating as a democracy, the definition of which is "government directly by the people collectively.' But not in our town. By the way, three of the present councillors were in office when the original poll was presented. Early this year I had a chat - with the Mayor on this matter and as I reported earlier he said it was riot one, of his priorities. He agreed with me that our town is becoming an expensive place in which to live and he was trying to get industry to reduce the taxation. He said a name change would be expensive and though he had no idea how expensive, he guessed it might run to a million dollars. According to our C.A.O. in the report to the general purpose committee, the' cost would be from 10 to 20 thousand, but the mayor and councillors don't seem to go for the bargain or even to discuss it. The . definition of Council is "an assembly for consultation and deliberation." Once again - not in our town. This is still a hot issue, believe it or not. I have had three offers of money in the last two days - my reply was, I would like to see 2000 letters sent to the mayor and councillors. I could go on and on. There is the new administrative building for instance. The plans for this were drawn up some years ago, a public meeting was held, the blueprints were explained by Diamond and were rejected forthwith, by those in attendance. I think everyone will admit our town hall needs alterations and renovations, but there were just too many things wrong with the plans submitted. It wasn't all Diamond's fault, he had produced a pretty plan on the information he was given. Two of the main sources of information, are no longer with us - the ex-treasurer who was with us for a "learning experience" - one thing she learned was that all bank accounts do not pay interest (that cost us $35,000.00). The other and perhaps main source of information was Mr. Don Smith whom I refer to as the boy wonder. Mr. Smith threw us into chaos when he left - the only thing that might have kept him was the promise he would have the beautiful office as per the Diamond Plan. And what was the matter with the Diamond Plan? For one thing it had offices for 70 employees. It had a gigantic foyer and was set up for a building with much traffic which wè do not have. And although thé building was designed for much traffic there was a minimum of parking - a dozen or so cars if my memory serves me right. There were many more shortcomings. And I hear of $2 million being debentured which might well turn out to , be $3 million. Issuing debentures for this amount of money does not seem to be the way to reduce our taxes. So we have a council going directly against the expressed wishes of the. tax payers on two important issues, If you were on council what would you do? I think 1 would resign.
