Organizers of the chili festival have won preliminary approval from the committee of services to hold their eighth annual cook-off at Lakeview ParK'during the May 22-24 weekend. - CHOO had previously approached the Town of Whitby to use the facilities at Brooklin Fairgrounds during the same weekend, however coun- cil stated the date would conflict with the Brooklin Spring Fair, scheduled for the following weekend. As CHOO was not willing to change the date requested, the matter was dropped. More than 50 competitors from Canada and the United States are ex- pected for the three day event. Over 4,500 people attended the cook-off last year when it was held at Whitby's Heysenshore Park. CHOO raised some $5,000 for the Easter Seals campaign from the event in 1986. CLAREMONT : A spokesman for the Durham Region Health Department says he suspects food or water caused more than 50 children from two separate groups to become ill after visiting Claremont Conservation Area last week. Brian Devitt, Director of Environmental Health Services for the hee 'th ~ department added the area will remain closed until the health department can pin-point the cause. About 32 of 39 children from an Oshawa school and 20 girls from a 40-member Brownie Troop suffered stomach cramps and vomiting after returning from three-day stints at north of Highway 7. the centre, located on Wesney Road, » Devitt said he doubted the problem was flu-related as suggested by Ron Hudson, supervisor of the Claremont area. "The chances of one group of people passing along a flubug toa number of others at a different time is slim," said Devitt. OSHAWA =r Oshawa Mayor Allan Pilkey has said local taxes in his city will jump at least 7.4 percent this year. or eoo-Pilkey-said the years of small or'no increases. in. the city.'s. share .of property taxes are over. He also warned the overall jump in local taxes could be higher than the 7.5 percent figure unless Durham Region and the school boards get their budgets under control. Ushawa, Durham and the boards each make up a share of the proper- ty taxes charged to city property owners. Durham faces a budget jump -of close to 17 percent before assessment improvement is considered, Current budgets for Oshawa have yet to be reviewed, but Pilkey said the city increase should be about the same as in 1986. -. Pilkey blamed a drop in provincial grants, higher union settlements and multi-million dollar sick leave payouts for the 1987 tax jump. Higher costs coupled with the-record industrial and residential growth will mean bigger budgets in the future, he said. Arama . THE KET LEADER | 5YR./100,000 = | KMS.
