Service TO ALL RESIDENTS OF SCUGOG TOWNSHIP To All Residents of Scugog: a The Scugog Chamber of Commerce has been accused by some people of only being after the dollar in this reception centre Issue. This is completely untrue, as our constitution states that our aim is for the '*Social, Economic and Civic Welfare of Scugog" and for the past. twenty years have been fairly successful in those areas. Below you will find the answers.to a lot of the questions being asked by residents of Scugog. We, the directors, of . the Chamber uganimously agreed that the proposed reception centre would be a benefit to .. this community for many reasons too numerous to state in this advertisement. We strongly feel that our council was elect make the decisions for us, the people, and should vote yes on this issue if they themselves feel that it would benefit this community. To conclude if there are disadvantages (and to date no facts have been found) would they diminish with the Receptjon Centre being located in Uxbridge? (Uxbridge vokd in principal to approve the Reception Centre in their area). } If we want law and order then morally we must be willing to provide a place where offenders of our rights are rehabilitated so they can return to society. Yours Sincerely, R.E. Drew, President, Scugog Chamber of Commerce " QUESTIONS © ANSWERS 1. Would any local benefits come from RE building the Reception Centre or from goods required for-operating it? It is present government policy to hire local tradesmen and buy goods locally wherever possible. 100 of the total 180 would be available (80 2. How many jobs would be available to 2. brought in). residents? This will depend on assessment and mill 4rate each year. (approx. 80 to 100 thousand) 3. What yearly grant would be payed to the 3. township? 6 to 10 weeks. 4. How long will prisoners be at the 4, Reception Centre? No. Passes are only issued after 6 5. Would prisoners receive passes? 5. i i >t ' months of sentence have been served. This is up to our local council as building permits would be required. 6. What would stop governments from 6. adding another facility? The Government has stated that they would not want recreational or residen- tial properties. Our council would decide on possible sites. 7. Where would it be located? 7. Majority of prisoners sentenced each year in Ontario come from within a 50 mile radius of Toronto. Why this area? No proof of this from other Institutional areas. 9. Will Real Estate values decrease close '9. to centre? . Will insurance Losts rise? 10. No. No. Only employees and children would require schooling and that would be reer payed through taxes like the rest of us. 2 1. Would it add a burden to our roads and nm. / school budget? 12. What would stop the Government from 12. changing the Reception Centre to a prison? Nothing, except it would be very costly. 13. Do they ever go down? Remember that Scugog has to collect $180,000. per year after the next three years to cover the decreasing Provincial grant to regional municipalities. This equals 10 mills on every tax bill at the resen assessment level. - - 13. Would the grant lower our taxes? The Reception Centre would not need soft services such as arenas, parks, etc. Garbage would have to be an internal matter as we have a limit on the amount picked up from regular collection. 14. Would the Reception - Centre put a 14. burden on soft services? 15. 15. You can't trust Government? This question has a frightening angle. If we can't trust the peole we elect then democracy is in trouble. If this were true we would be tarring our own representa- tives. (4farmers, 1 R.N., 1 bookkeeper, 1 minister) with the same brush.
