3 (From page 1) creases have not kept up with the need for up-grading and repairs. He also feels strongly that before the term of the current council expires this November, preliminary work on a new municipal building should be started. He said the present building on Perry Street is not adequate to meet the needs of the Township. Construction of a new municipal building would be a major project for Scugog Township, but he feels there is a need and the initial planning should start in the very near future. As for overall development in Scugog Township, councillor Graham said he favours new residential subdivisions in Port Perry and in the smaller hamlets, but he is much opposed to checker-board housing projects on vacant land in rural areas. He noted that Durham Region is now in-the process of studying ways that the sewage treatment lagoon system can be expanded for Port Perry, which is needed if more development can occur on full municipal services. He said hopefully the Regional govern- ment will have some answers for Scugog this year. Over the past several months, members of council have been hat into the ring dealing with the Conway develop- ment proposal in Port Perry. The plans for this project call for an enclosed shopping mall, a 100 unit seniors apartment building and a further 90 condominium units, all on about ten acres of land on the north side of Highway 7A just east of Water Street. Councillor Graham said he favours the concept of this pro- ject, but feels there are still a lot of technical details that must be worked out. "But I have no doubt it will get the official approval from council this year," he said.. A life long resident of Scugog Township, councillor Graham, his wife Joan and son Mark run a large farming operation at Purple Hill, south of Blackstock, which includes cash crops, 800 beef cat- tle, and custom work for other farmers in the area. He said one reason why he had to make a decision on running for the Mayor's chair at this time is to be able to make long term plans for his farming operation this year. The number of acres in cash crops will be cut back this year. Councillor Graham said that if he is successful in his bid for elec- tion next November, he will designate specific hours each week when he will be at the municipal office to meet with residents to discuss municipal matters and problems.

Ms. Kazin and her son moved to Fines for parking now up! An article in last weeks Star which was to have in- formed residents in this community about new fees for parking offences, contained an error. In the last paragraph of the article it stated that the new fee schedules would not go into effect until September 1, 1988. This information was in- correct, as the new fines for parking offences are now in effect. Parking and stopping of- fences have been raised to $15, while parking in a fire route is now $30 and parking in spaces desig- nated for the handicapped is a $50 fine. And remember, if you don't pay your fine within 72 hours, you can add an- other 50% to the cost of the ticket.

Coleman told an Ontario Su- preme Court sentencing hearing that he strangled Ingrid Kazin in his Oshawa townhouse during a lovers' quarrel on March 7, 1987. He then strangled Gregory Ka- zin, 8, when the boy came in from playing outside and discov- cred him in the act of killing his mother. A Port Perry friend of the Ka- zins told the Star last year follow- ing the killings that Ingrid was a very polite, friendly person, who kept to herself, and spent her free time studying or with her son. Greg Kazin was described as a "real little gentelman", very po- lite. He had been enrolled in grade Perry Street, ' Port Perry for murder of woman, boy three at R.H. Cornish School in Port Perry from November 1986 until February 1987. In handing down the sentence, Ontario Supreme Court Justice Robert Mongomery called the killing of the boy an act of "cowardly brutality that defies " human understanding." In a tape recording made following the murders, Coleman said that he tried to commit suicide. To this, Judge Montgomery said "if he (Coleman) had the fixed in- tention of committing suicide, why did he kill Greg, too." Defence lawyer, Eric Lewis said that Coleman feared for his safety because child killers are considered outcasts in the prison system; and asked the court to send Coleman directly to the high-risk unit at Kingston Penitentiary. The judge agreed to the request.
