No m oney forRuddy expansion The Ontario Ministry of Health will flot provide the $350,000 needed to open Up the currently empty second floor of the Dr. J.O. Ruddy General Hos- pital. Instead, the ministry has requested that the hospital's board, corne up with the funding that will provide a 32-bed cbronic caeefaeility. Regional Councillor Tom Edwards, a mem- ber of the Durham Regional District Healtb Council, said last Thursday that the minstry bas asked tbe hospital to bear 100 per cent of the proj ect's capital costs as opposed to the traditional one- third. .Edwards told the health council that the news' was conveyed in a letter to the board that was read last Wednes- day night. "They discussed it at length and decided to invite the new minister down to meet with the board," he said. The new minister of health is Larry Gross- man who.formerly held- "the industry and tour- Bridge ism portfolio in the provincial cabinet. Edwards added that the ministry wil pay for the floor's operating costs. The ministry's area planning co-ordinator, Earl Coulson, said that the hospital can wait uniti there are enough funds available for the projeet instead of goîng ahead on their own. However, he prediet- ed that no funds wiil be availbale until 1990. This projeet had been the top on the health council's list of priori- ties and council mem- ber Dr. 'Guthrie Grant said that 'the decision could have serious im- plications for other capi- tal projects in' the region. Other priority items include expansions îat both the Oshawa and Ajax-Pickering general hospitals and Grant be- lieves that the funds won't be forthcoming for tbese items eitber. The decision bas also caused Ajax Mayor Bill MeLean to wonder why the council should be planning such health care projects when there are no funds to 69 Baldwin St. (Hwy. 12 & 7) Brooklin 655-4584 "Brookll' Frlendly Little Wôo Shop" NEED HELP wlth you r latest projeot?
