But he did not deny that the home had problems. 1-Ie said the meetings would help to clearly identify those problems and the number of residents residents affected. : From that point, Compleat Home Care president Tony McLean pledged that Marnwood House would implement implement any solutions recommended by Mr. Fabiano. "All I want is for someone to say, 'this is how it will work, and we'll do it," Mr. McLean said. Mr. McLean said the problems at Marnwood House existed prior to the layoffs and that the cutbacks were only the straw that broke the camel's ... back. He said he wanted a clear ideii- ' : tification of the problems before re--"- solutions were implemented. <&$■*' "If we're going to put the camel back together again, let's make sure we do it right," he said.

The claim was backed by Muriel Krizanc, the Vice-President/Care Management for Compleat Home Care, who said Marnwood House was still losing $11,000 per month after the layoffs. "This home does have a problem as most of the nursing homes in Ontario have a problem," Mr. McLean said. "They're underfunded." "We keep on being told by the Ministry of Health that we're doing the right thing," he added. "We're not sure why we're the bad guys." Mr. Fabiano later admitted he also challenges the Provincial government government guidelines for nursing homes. "I have some! problems changing clientele and changing expectations to what we're 'supposed' to be doing," he said. . . Hovveveiyone relative of a resident said : she would trust Marnwood House to résolve the problems but that tlie solutions should come quickly. 1 1 "I'm willing to go along with what you have to do," said Marg Ibbotson.

Wells \ From Page One Region for the OHAP funding last January in conjunction with their application for provincial government government funding under the Ontario Program for Renewal, Renewal, Improvement, Development and Economic Revitalization (PRIDE). It was estimated the water services would cost $600,000 in total. Newcastle Council was looking at fronting about $350,000 of those costs from the regional OHAP reserves and another $200,000 from lot levies until they heard from the province. However, Durham Region Region informed council last week that the $350,000 sought from OHAP reserves could not be delivered. Works Commissioner W.A. Tvvelvetrees informed informed regional councillors councillors in a report last week that the $540,000 which was in the OI-IAP reserves reserves from the late 1970's had been used to service industrial lands in Oshawa. "It can, therefore, be stated that no OHAP funds remain for use in financing water or sewage sewage works in Courtice," he said. At the same time, Mr. Tvvelvetrees reported that there has been a repeated repeated history of public rejection for water services services in the Nash Road area. He pointed to the most recent example last September September when 34 wells in that area were found to be contaminated. lie Van Belle Floral Shoppes ...much more than a flower store! <1 STORES • Highway No. 2 • King SI.

Objection to Park Payment A Darlington Township resident told Newcastle council on Monday that lie's being forced to pay twice towards towards the development of parkland. At this week's meeting, council voted to require a cash in lieu of parkland contribution from the six- lot development. However, Les Colvin told Newcastle council that he has already agreed to give up approximately four acres of property for parkland parkland and argued that he should not be subject to a further five per cent cash in lieu payment. This would amount to a double cost, he said. "I'm not a developer and I intend to remain on my property and pay taxes," he explained. Town council, however, is taking the position that the land given up by Mr. Colvin is valley land. Therefore, council has indicated that the recent land severance to allow the six lots should be subject to the live per cent cash in lieu requirement. requirement. The parkland payment was not included in the decision decision of the Land Division Committee allowing the lots, Consequently, the Town is filing an appeal with the Land Division Committee. A live percent representative representative value of the land has ranged from $120 to $155 per lot for similar applications in the immediate vicinity. The town staff suggests that a similar value should be applied to Mr. Colvin's six lots, resulting in a payment of between $720 to SiMO.
