"It is not clear how or whether they intend to coordinate with other community agencies and whether they intend to make themselves themselves in some way directly accountable accountable to abused women," he said.

In a report from Public Works Department, it is stated: "The estimated estimated number of stops in the rural areas is 7,500 and the estimated costs for the Blue Box service in the rural areas is $266,000. "If Durham Region picks up the costs for the Blue Box Program in' the rural areas, they will receive a one-third subsidy from the province; whereas, if the cost is picked up by area municipalities it is questionable as to whether or not it will be subsidized,". subsidized,". the report from the Public Observer to be Part of Hearing For Landfill Site by Laura J.

Taylor explained it is through shelters that women become empowered empowered to break the chains that bind them to abusive relationships. Looking at the location chosen by the Bethesda House board of directors directors for a shelter, Taylor said it is inappropriate. "When women go to a shelter, they assume their lives are no longer at risk," Taylor said. However, at the new Bethesda House location, there is an apartment apartment building and a large parking lot directly behind it. There are 36 balconies and 100 windows overlooking the proposed shelter. While all three delegations to the meeting could not explain where or what an ideal location for a shelter would be, they all agreed that the proposed location, was not it. All three cited the apartment building as being a potentially unsafe unsafe neighbor to women, children and staff members of a shelter. Mayor Hamre noted to the delegations delegations that the issue of where a shelter would be located, was not one that would be decided by one's heart but through planning issues. The site which the Bethesda House Board of Directors has bought is located on .25 acres in Bowmanvillc. The board is looking to have the property rezoned from Urban Residential Type One to an appropriate zone to permit a crisis care facility in a single family home. Within report PD-82-94, the Planning Director-notes the facility is to be non-profit and non- denominational in nature. Since the report was not on the committee's agenda, the council members asked that the delegations be thanked for their contributions. Keith Marlowe said Alliance House representatives and Bethesda House representatives, along with other violence prevention groups in Durham Region will hold a meeting to discuss the issues.
