8 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Tuesday, Sept. 16, 1975 Wants municipalities to collect The regional finance com- mittee will recommend to council that all area munici- palities be authorized to col lect amounts for water and sewer purposes by their general rate in 1975 on behalf of the region. The recommendation also calls for those area muni- cipalities who have raised amounts for water and sewer purposes, to transfer to the regio: an Srnouny equivalent to 75 per cent of the respect- ive excess of expenditures over user benefit charges levied by the region in 1974. The transfer will be in two installments due Oct. 31 and Nov. 28 this year if the recommendation is endorsed by council. A breakdown of the 1974 lievy to the municipalities for regional waterworks and sewage system. that com- prised the excess of expend- itures over user benefit charges for these purposes shows that 75 per cent of that levy represents a total of $2,249,912. The finance commission- er's report said that at the present time the 1975 current budgets for water and sewer purposes have not been final- ized. However, costs are still Breaks tie (continued that donations to the new Scugog arena fund will be withdrawn. Mayor Lawrence Malcolm, who broke a 3-3 tie vote and voted against the peniten- tiary in the original action in July, was the fifth member to vote for the penitentiary last night. He reiterated his being incurred to maintain these operations, the com- mittee was told, and as a result the region is forced to borrow funds from outside sources to finance this main- tenance. - The interest costs are sub- sequently allocated back to the respective waterworks and sewage systems, the report said. The final balance for the year will be determined upon adoption of the 1975 current budgets for water and sewer purposes -- a'move that does not -appear likely at least until after the provincial election September .18.

He said this has been the case in many other communities where such a project has' been undertaken. . It was pointed out at the meeting that such a project would not mean a .'""turning back of the clock" and a remaking of the downtown area to the way it was in the past. "streetscape" or a general character for the street: would be attempted. Such a project would not necessarily have to be completed all at one time. Chamber president Richard Drew said that in some places where the over- all plan has been adopted, it has taken 15 years before some buildingssare renovat- ed into the general character of the rest of the "street- scape". There is another way of looking at the problem, the meeting was told by archi- tects who were on hand for the meeting. "One is what will happen if we do it, but another way is, what will happen if we don't do it." WITH THESE LOW MILEAGE USED CARS Instead, a general Many other downtown areas have decayed after long neglect. More and more empty stores appear in the downtown area, and new shopping plazas usually take over in the outskirts. \ It would be easier to carry out such a general renovation project now, rather than wait until a future time, when it "SAVE NOW for Limited Time 25% off 1974 DUSTER Ruddy Electric Wholesale Ltd. 75 RICHMOND ST.

Bob Kenny restated his original position, saying he still considered the bene- fits far outweigh the draw- backs. "Somewhere we have to start getting this employ- ~ ment and tax opportunity within the municipality. Lord knows we need it," he said. Coun. Don Frew warned that no matter what the - decision would be, there should be no hard feelings in the community. "Everyone has the right of their own convictions," he said. "The right to make a decision. And I mean that." A recorded vote was asked for by Coun. Kenny, who also asked that Mayor Malcolm make his position clear. "I said how I'd yote before ...that I saw mie advant-. ages than disadvantages. I'll vote yes for it," he said.
