i 2 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc, Wednesday, December 4,1991 OSHAWA--A trustee with the Durham separate school board is angry with the board's chair and director of education for holding an in-camera meeting on wage increases for 10 senior administrators. Fred Jones said a three per cent interim wage increase for the board's senior staff was approved last Monday, Nov. 24. Mr. Jones, who attended the meeting after being called and urged to go, said the 90-minute closed-door meeting was one of the most incredible he had ever attended. He said there was screaming, hollering and cursing as tmstees debated the issue. They were discussing a motion which called for a 4.5 per cent interim wage increase. After debate, the number was dropped to three per cent, retroactive to Sept. 1. A further wage increase for the senior staff will be set after a contract agreement is negotiated with high school teachers. The senior administration staff salaries now range from $82,000 per year to $114,000. PORT PERRY--The Reform Party of Canada has gained a new member and the Federal Durham Liberal Party has lost one. Paul Pagnuelo, who was ousted as the vice-president of the federal riding recently during a controversial election has resigned from the party, states a report from the Port Perry Star. Mr. Pagnuelo claims that most of . the newly-recruited members who attended the November meeting of the party in Columbus had a pro-life slant. "I'm not going to be a member of a party whose focus is one issue," he said. He stated that he believes a party should not restrict itself to one issue, but focus on a number of important ones. OSHAWA--What holds 900 people at a time, has washrooms for men and women, a popcorn machine and has seen lots of Hollywood types come and go? It's the Regent Theatre in Oshawa. And it is for sale. The Sutton Group Status Realty has put up a "For Sale" sign and is waiting for the best offer. The building, which will see visitors on Dec. 18 during an open house, is currently owned by a Toronto investment firm. The firm, which bought the ornate building constructed in the 1920s, is asking for $3 million. However, said realtor Ross Jones, that price is negotiable. Newly-elected mayor, Nancy Diamond, who expressed an interest in the building during this year's municipal election campaign, said she does not want to see money from the public purse spent on the old theatre. However, she would like to see, eventually, a community fund raising drive to set up an arts centre for the city of Oshawa. Mr. Jones said the building needs "a little tidying'up," to put it back in order. The Week in Review.
