The board adopted the recommendatioxi by Bruce Mather, director of education, to establish the committee to d" 4proceed more for- mally and more ac- tively,"9 on the need for expanded ad- ministrative faiities. Board trustees anid staff recently learxied that it took Peel Region seven years to get a new administrative building, from, initial .con- sideration to final com- pletion, Mather states i a report. "'Although we caxi shorten the process in Durham we stil face a' potentiÏi serious crisis we don't proceed im- mediately," states Mather. He said board staff are, now in "sub- standard * accom- modation" ini exlstixig facilities 'whlch he says are overcrowded. Hie noted'that rentali costs have gone up i.leased facilities *hile there are problems of con!-- munication ,and ,coor- dination. He recommended that Regioal.headquarters bld 'n Februr Graywood Develop- ments Ltd. will present a development plan, in- cluding a site for a new regional headquarters inm Witby, -before' regioxial council. in February. "You sho uld'be there to see it," Ron Wojcicki,' vice president of land development , for Graywood Devýelopmen- te Ltd., told The Free Press when asked about plans for 50 acres xiorth of Rossland Rd., a property opposite the existing - regional headquarters building.

He said he has' also heard complainte about the other two strip parlors in the downtown area. The second Whitby trustee on the board, Ed Fixian, bas also received complainte. A pétition by.St. John the Evangelist Church opposing strip parlors bas more tban 1,000 names, said Oldnian. A similar petition by Holy Family Catholiç Church bas "hundreds" of names, he added. He said churches of ail denominations in Whitby have been con- tacted about the bylaw, which bas received first and second reading, which would ban parlors in the downtown area and restrict them to an area in southeast Whit- by. Oldnian said there would be representatioli fromn several churches at next Wednesday night's public meeting over the bylaw. The new headquarters is part of a housing and commercial develop- ment. Whitby Mayor Bob At- tersley had _previously annouxiced that WhitbY would try to remain the home of. the regional administration office af- ter Oshawa Mayor Allan Pilkey made a bid for headquarte3rs at Bond and Mary Ste. in Oshawa. Durhami regional chairman Gary Herrema says the region wiil go, to court to determine owxiership of th xsting building Oshawa dlaims partial ownership of the building but .Pilkey dlaims tbat Qshawa is willing to drop its $3 million ,dcaim li the building if a new headquarters is in Oshawa. Herrema said Durham's northetn municipalities regard Whitby as the 'County Town' but added tbat the costs involved in both bids will be the determining factor for a decision by the region. He described the plan made by Graywood as "'fantastic."- th e committèe look at a consultaflt'5 report wbich bas been revised to reflect the board's xi- creased needs due to rapid growtb in the region and in the educational systeni. The committee will consider possible sites and. financlig alter- natives as weil as ap- proach mumecipalities for 'possible joint projecte. The board had previously set Up a committee, chaired by' Brock trustee George McLaughlin, to consider possible sites for a new building. McLaugblmn said his committee - had discussed a jomnt projeet with Durham Region but could flot procéed- because of the battie the City of Oshawa over ownership of the existlnig regfional headquarters i Whit- by, a matter which bas yet to be settled (Oshawa and Whitby bave both made bids for a new .regional headquarters building).i "So we decided to sit back and wait until that was settled," said M4cLAugblin. Pickering trustee Louise Farr said she regarded the new steering committee as a difurther extension" of the previous com nittee. The new committee wil be made Up- of' five trustees, imcluding chairman Sandra Lawson, and three> staff membèrs, Includingl Mather. Owner fights hylaw i FROM PAGE 1 meeting to comment on the matter. When asked if the botel would cballehige li Scourt the bylaw if passed, he replied: "Whatdýoyou think?"
