The problem, as seen by the clerk's department, was that a number number of complaints had been filed against the business which was unlicensed. unlicensed. In late July, by-law officers went to the "Bus Slop" to talk with the owner of the refreshment vehicle. Ruth Ward, the operator, _ told them she had purchased the business from the previous owner. While she not have a currently-issued li- ing discussions with the By-law Enforcement Enforcement Division office in August, maintained that the vehicle has been there for several years. The report from the Clerk's Department Department states: The refreshment vehicle vehicle license records date back to 1980. On a review of the files, it appears appears that there have been seven licenses licenses issued for Refreshment Vehicles Vehicles at that location. These licenses have been issued to various people and die description of the vehicles involved is quite vague on some of die application forms making it difficult difficult to ascertain if this is in fact, die same vehicle dial has been licensed licensed each time." The report concluded that since a number of licenses had been issued previously for a vehicle or vehicles at dial location on Taunton Road, it would be unfair not to issue a license license to the Wards. did -- , cense, the officers were able to lo- CîpmQi-c fn hp (nVO VPf1 ! cate à 1990 license at the back of y ti,ilUfb ue l ' IVUIVGU ' die bus.

From the documentation came a three-part process which the Community Community Services Department recommends: recommends: • a co-ordinating body that is "in- tune" with the needs of seniors; • a proposal of a five-year plan to provide an immediate response to needs identified; and, • a proposal of a longer term plan that will "address the needs and issues issues of seniors into the next century," century," The Seniors' Community Action Committee would function ns a forum forum "through which older adults could channel their reactions and suggestions for change to those who arc responsible lor decision- making."
