Corridor e Capers Hi folks, looks like we are now into a Provincial Election, whether we want one'or flot. H-owever, there is no ideal time for an election, so ! guess June is as good a time as any. Not much to report as yet on the subject. The only action so far, is Durhami West P.C. Association will hold their nomination meeting at the Ajax Cornmunity Centre this Friday, May 6th, at 8:00. The Liberals and N.D.P. have not notified mie as to their nomination meeting, so maybe next week there will be more to report. So far everything has been very quiet. No even a sign mars the beautiful spring landscaping. That too will change. Whitby Police Station The Whitby Free Press is conducting a survey to deter- f mine your views on the maintenance of the I 8th Division f Police Station on Rossland Rd. A few minutes of your time is ail that is required to f111 out the questionaire. 1 urge al ot you to participate in this survey. The identity of Whitby is, once again, being jeopardized. It would appear each year at budget time, the Region feels * the only wvay to reduce the budget, is to take services away * fromn Whitby. So wvhat is new!

The developer, hopefully, will be able to tell the existing residents just how many people per acre he is suggesting to abut their property. Will the subdivision mnain tain or improve the quality of the existing residential development? Will it have a harmionious integration of housing types that will be compatible with the existing buiît up area?
