Ms. Millingen also discussed "turn back" sections along the trail if someone where not able to complete the trail due to illness. The shortcut to a main road happens to be right across Ms. Harvie's property. Ms. Millingen stated that the liability coverage of $2 million is not enough for the amount of land this trail covers.

This is a day set aside each year to recognize the importance of reading and writing in our communities, and the struggle faced by 55% of Durham Region's adult population who have some level of difficulty with literacy skills. The International Adult Literacy Survey report confirms that literacy is liked to the economic success of not only Durham Region, but the province of Ontario and Canada as a nation.

Ruby McPhee, advising Council of a letter that was published in her local paper on August 23, 2000, regarding Toronto sending their garbage to the Adams Mine Site. This is not an ordinary landfill site we are voting on. This is a small lake at the bottom of a large pit. The mine has been closed for several years and if the pit didn't leak it would be over 600 ft deep instead of250 ft deep. Ms. McPhee's nephew who is a geologist and mining engineer and has worked in mines in Africa and now is currently in Brazil worked at this Adams Mine in the summer holidays while he was going to mining school. He said one of his jobs was to do a dye test to see if the pit leaked. The results ofthe dye test showed that the water in the pit leaked out into all the little streams and the river that is close to the site. This is where Mr. McGuinty is going to pump the water out ofthe pit into all these little streams and the river. On voting to send Toronto garbage to this site we will be voting for a licence to kill as this water that he is going to pump out will contaminate the navigable waters from here to Ottawa and eventually the little streams and rivers flowing in the Municipality ofClarington's direction.

This year's theme is "Co-ops and Credit Unions.. .Investing in Canadian Communities." Canada's co-operatives and credit unions represent the optimism that Canadians feel about the communities in which they live. Not only do co- operatives and credit unions invest in communities, the returns that those investments yield stay in those communities, providing jobs and generating economic activity. For co-operatives and credit unions, success is also measured in the number of jobs they create, in the services they offer to their members, and in the equitable way they distribute their earnings within the communities they serve.

It recognizes the importance of raising awareness about the fact that breastfeeding is a right for both mother and child and seeks to stimulate a shift in public thinking so that this right is respected, protected, facilitated and fulfilled at household, community and government levels in every country.

(Proclaimed) D-4 M02.GE Becky Wall, Public Health Nurse, requesting Council to proclaim October 4,2000, as International Walk to School Day. International Walk to School Day replaces National Walk a Child to School Day (WCSD). On October 6, 1999, over 42,000 students actively participated in the second annual WCSD in the City of Toronto, York and Durham Regions. Through our support, they can make International Walk to School Day successful once again this year in Durham Region. International Walk to School Day, endorsed by the Canadian Federation of Municipalities, was established to encourage children and parents to become more physically active, increase safe walking routes to school and promote cleaner air in our communities. The importance ofthis day should not be underestimated. Two thirds of Canadian children do not participate in enough physical activity to lay a solid foundation for future health and well being. Traffic collision statistics for the Region show that young children need to be taught the importance of safe walking routes and practises. In 1998, approximately twenty people under the age of20 were involved in non-fatal collisions with vehicles. Many of these collisions were due to unsafe pedestrian actions. (Proclaimed) .

(Proclaimed) D -6 T08.GE Michelle Clarke, requesting a crossing guard be placed on Simpson Avenue and Jane Street in Bowmanville. After exercising all other options Ms. Clarke has been directed to Council to make an application for a crossing guard. Ms. Clarke's six-year-old daughter attends Ontario Street Public School and she is concerned for the safety to and from school. Living on the east side of Simpson Avenue, she must cross this busy street without the aide of a crossing guard or traffic lights. Through conversations with transportation and Ontario Street Public School, her daughter is unable to be bussed as she is within walking distance to her school. The only aide that is available to her to cross Simpson A venue is at Simpson and King Streets where there are lights and a guard available. For her daughter to walk to the lights, cross, then walk back to Jane Street it will add 20 minutes to her trip as well as put her over the kilometers that is considered walking distance. (Correspondence referred to the Public Works Department) . D-7 T08.GE Mr. and Mrs. Howe, advising Council that they are against any bridge being built over Foster Creek. This exclusive neighbourhood would be greatly affected due to traffic volume and speed, and the property values in this very desirable area of Newcastle would never be the same. Many of them have enjoyed their court being tucked away from the larger subdivisions and by having a major throughway on Grady Drive the problem of traffic would be very dangerous for all of the younger children who now enjoy the freedom of their street with it's low traffic volume. The environment surrounding the creek will be destroyed if a major bridge and road are constructed. They as taxpayers do not want to foot the bill for this bridge to be built and would be very resentful of any of their taxes going to the road construction as well. Let the developer pay as he will only make money from it and they will loose all their equity and peace and quiet and safety that they now enjoy.

Council Minutes COMMUNICATIONS D -9 Great Canadian Town Band Festival M02.GE D-lO 2001 Federal Budget M06.GE - 21 - September 25, 2000 David Climenhage, Chairman, Greater Canadian Town Band Festival, requesting Council's support for the continuation of Greater Canadian Town Band Festival in 2001 and future years as a major international band festival. Mr. Climenhage believes this years' festival was a great success. Over 3000 people attended the events over July 1 st weekend that included the Military Tattoo, Victorian Ball, The Callathumpian parade and the series of concerts held throughout the village. Their audience was entertained by some of Canada's finest bands and experienced the sounds of historic bands that have rarely been heard in Canada. The cost of mounting this festival is high because of the outstanding quality of bands, the travel expenses for visiting bands and the cost of staging and advertising the event. After all revenues and costs are included they have a budget deficit from their first year of approximately $16,000. The festival committee raised a total of approximately $70,000 in cash and their total expenses were $86,000. Ifthe in-kind donations of $20,000 are included, their revenue would total $90,000 raised versus $106,000 in total expenses. The Great Canadian Town Band Festival is unique in Canada and has the potential to become a major tourist attraction. Mr. Climenhage is requesting support from Council in the form of a loan to finance this years deficit and to consider a level of sponsorship for next year. Their committee is developing an aggressive plan to fund raise so that they will repay the deficit and cover all expenses for next year's Great Canadian Town Band Festival.
