Council rejects bid for bowling green Scugog Township council has turned down a $40,000 offer for the lawn bowling green on Queen Street. The offer was rejected at the council meeting June 3 with most members 'agreeing that for the time being, anyway, the municipali- ty should hang on to the site. Scugog Mayor Jerry Taylor, in favour of re- taining the site at this time, said after the meeting, there is no reason why a future council won't make the decision to sell. The offer to purchase came from the Port Perry IGA Store, located right across the street. The store would have us- ed the lawn bowling green for additional parking and was seeking access to the area from Group wants dump station to open longer A group of Ward 4 residents is calling on Scugog Township council to bring about changes in the operation of the Cart- wright Transfer Station, east of Blackstock. The residents held a public meeting last Sun- day afternoon at the Nestleton Community Centre to discuss the Transfer Station and work out changes they feel Township council should consider. Colin Kemp of Nestleton, acting as spokesman for the meeting on Sunday, says there are three areas the groups would like to see changed.

Mayor Taylor said one reason why he's in favour of keeping the property for the time be- ing is because the Lawn Bowling Club is still in the process of moving to a new facility near the Scugog Arena, and it will be another year before that new facility is completed. "I have no problem keeping the green for now," he said, but he added that when the bowling club moves to its new facility, he wants the Township to come up with some specific plan for the old green. Ward 2 councillor Jack Cottrell has suggested that the lawn bowling green remain in municipal hands as a small park, with benches and a few picnic tables. He has also suggested that it might be a good spot for a natural ice skating rink in the winter months Scugog's Regional councillor Lawrence Malcolin said after the meeting last week he 1s opposed to selling the property at this time, but (Turn to page 3) Vol. 119 No. 28 Tuesday, June 11, 1985 36 pages A 74 year old Scar- borough man has been sentenced to five months in jail after pleading guil- ty to dangerous driving in connection with an ac- cident last December that claimed the life of Sharon Goslin of Blackstock. In handing down the sentence in a Bowman- ville courtroom June 4, Provincial court judge John Bark also suspend- - ed the drivers licence of William Miglec for three years. The Scarborough man, described by his lawyers, Alex Sosna, as a 'gentle, good, church-going man with an unblemished record," had pleaded guilty to dangerous driv- ing April 17. Originally, Ontario Provinical Police had charged Miglec with criminal negligence causing death and hav- ing more than 80 mg. of ~ alcohol in his blood, but the charges were reduc- ed when he agreed to plead guilty to dangerous driving.

A car pulling a trailer swerved into the ditch to avoid the Miglec car, but Sharon Goslin, following closely behind the trailer in her Chevette, didn't have a chance to get out of the way. She was killed instant- ly, just a few hundred yards from her home, where she lived with hus- band Glen and daughter . Annette. The court was told Mr. Miglec and a passenger in the car, Peter Soos of Etobicoke, had been drinking most of the day at a cottage in the Lake Scugog area. "He had been sub- jected to just as much publicity about drinking and driving as everyone else." Judge Bark said angrily.
