The councillors voted to approve a zoning for a contro- versial sign shop -- with a num- ber of strings attached -- to save the jobs of employees there, although the move has been contested by a neighbor. The Mammone property, on the north side of Hwy. 7A east of Nestleton, has been the sub- ject of several council discus- sions over the past couple of 1010) A KINY 1 TTA 985-9611 « 126 Water St., Port Perry 2613 Eglinton Ave. E., Scarborough (416) 265-1699 House Shops CHECK OUT OUR CONVERSE ALL STAR SPECIALS!

Councillors have asked for site development plans from the property owners, but have been rebuffed a number of times. Last Monday they were pre- sented with a list of measures to be taken, including erection of a privacy fence, in order to make the business more agree- able to neighbors; councillors agreed that, and the prospect of lost jobs, was enough to sway their decision in favor of the rezoning. "I still can't put out of my mind that there's eight people working in that building," said Councillor Marilyn Pearce (Ward 2). "To me, that's the bot- tom line right now." Councillor Ken Carruthers (Ward 1) agreed the jobs of local people ought to be protected. "All eight who work there are residents of Scugog, and it would be tough for them to relo- cate somewhere else," he said. The rezoning recognizes the operation of Scugog Signs. Among the concessions made by the property owner were: Q erection of a property fence around the operation; Q relocation of a business sign; 0 a definition of the type of outside storage allowed, and a buffering around the prop- erty. Choir to perform Nov. 12 The Durham Board of Educa- tion is proud to present the first Durham Chamber Choir Festi- val Nov. 12. The festival will feature four outstanding Dur- ham Board Chamber Choirs in- cluding the nationally recog- nized choirs the O'Neill Senior Chamber Choir and Port Perry Jazzmerize. As well, young high school choirs will be represent- ed by the O'Neill Junior Cham- ber Choir and the Sinclair Sec- ondary School Chamber Choir. The O'Neill Senior Chamber Choir performs extensively over the course of the year. The ensemble is directed by Russ Baird. They have received out- standing reviews for their per- formances for the Durham Re- gion Concert Association on their special young artists con- certs in 1993 and again in 1994. This year they have been invit- ed to perform with the Scarbo- rough Choral Society and the Scarborough Symphony Or- chestra at their Christmas Con- cert at Markham Theatre. Port Perry Jazzmerize under the direction of Mr. Charles White has been invited to per- form at the prestigious national invitational festival MusicFest Canada every year that Mr. White has been their director. They sing with an elegant air and a wonderful commitment to making music. The event will take place at the Durham Board of Educa- tion's new Education Centre in the Atrium. Concert time is 8 p.m. Admis- sion is free, but tickets are re- quired. Tickets are available through the schools involved or through Mr. Mark Magee, Fa- cilitator for Music at the Dur- ham Board, 666-6500. "ne
