The mayor argues that tap- pinginto the reserves is the best route as it will not be an addi- tional tax burden to the resi- dents of Scugog. "We're going to be able to do $1 million worth of work with- out showing any increase on the local tax bill," he said. Council met March 4 to plan its course of action concerning the infrastructure project and shaved a 16-point plan down to the remaining five points. It de- bated the merits of such projects as an additional ice pad at the arena, reconstruction of Queen Street, the construction of anin- door swimming pool, improve- ments to both fairgrounds, the construction of an administra- tion building, and a motel/hotel partnership. The pros and cons of each pro- ject were debated before arriv- ing at the final five. Many were dropped from the list as they were not eligible for the money or different grants could be uti- lized. The jewel of the township's wish list is the Scugog Commu- nity Centre multi-purpose hall. This 6,000-square foot hall, to be built adjacent to the existing arena on Reach Street, will serve as a banquet facility with a capacity of 350 to 500 people with. A fitness area will also be included. The construction of this facili- ty makes good economic sense, Mayor Hall said. With the new facility, revenue can be generat- ed through rentals of the hall and utilized as a convention fa- cility. The township has missed out on opportunities in the past due to the lack of such a hall. "It's important from an eco- nomic standpoint to have such a facility," he said. The township will benefit in the construction of the complex as well, as council plans to uti- lize local contractors and sup- plies as much as possible. High on the priority list was also improvements to the local library which has suffered in the past. Under the plan, the li- brary will see an extensive com- puter upgrading including a main computer, new bar code readers, four new personal com- puters and CD Rolm. "I want to make sure the li- brary continues to play a vital role in the life of our communi- ty," the mayorsaid. With council in agreement of the priorities of the township, it must now wait for word from the government on approval, once that comes a quick start-up is expected. "I see these projects getting started this year," Mayor Hall said. More volunteers are needed to preserve Canoe the Nonquon From page 1 dle it (the triathlon). The com- mittee, which has been organiz- ing it every year, just feels it is too much effort to do it again," Mr. Brock said. As for the Canoe the Non- quon, which celebrated its 25th anniversay last June, he says thereis hope. Itis not a question of the com- mittee of organizers not want- ing to organize the event, the problem is a lack of organizers, he stressed. "There is probably hope, but we need help from organizers to look after some of the advanced preparation. The last commit- tee, which has been the same = SEES HE DE GS AS er I. committee for years, is burnt- out," Mr. Brock added. The committee definitely wants to see the oldest canoe race in Ontario run for many more years, especially this year as the Scugog Shores Museum Village, which the event has supported for several years, is celebrating its 25th anniver- sary. "We just hope that the Canoe the Nonquon can be resurrect- ed," Mr. Brock said. Organizations and individu- als who wish information on the running of either event can call Joan Scott at 985-7014, Bill Brock next week at 985-7134 or can leave their name at the Port Perry Star by calling 985-7383.
