'~ Council Minutes \.,... MINUTES DELEGATIONS '-' \w - 2- January 26, 1998 Resolution #C-58-98 Moved by Councillor Novak, seconded by Councillor Rowe THAT the minutes of a regular meeting of Council held on January 12, 1998, be approved. "CARRIED" Mr. Roger Anderson, Chair, Regional Municipality of Durham thanked the Municipality of Clarington for their assistance during the storm relief efforts in eastern Ontario and Quebec. He stated that the Regional Municipality of Durham can be more cost effective if the municipalities work together as one united team. Presently the Region is looking at their 1998 budget and Mr. Anderson indicated that it is not possible for the Region to cover the $10.3 million Provincial cut without raising tax dollars. At this time, he is unable to tell residents how much the tax increase will be, however, 11 % is not out of the question at this time. Mr. Anderson indicated that he is working towards having the Regional Council meetings broadcast on cable television, thereby allowing residents across the Region to watch the proceedings of the meetings. Lua and Michelle Farnoush, students of Ontario Street Public School advised Council that on January 15, 1998, they approached their principal, Mr. Steve Fortier, and requested his permission to establish a relief drive to help our friends and neighbours in eastern Ontario and Quebec, who are recovering from the devastating effects of an ice storm. Immediately, a notice was sent to all parents asking them to participate in this humanitarian action. During the relief project, the girls were presented with the rarely given Principal's Award. John Wells, 15 Firwood Avenue, Courtice, L1E 1P6, addressed Council with respect to power systems and communications. He indicated that power distribution systems and trees do not mix as was evidenced by the devastation in eastern Ontario and Quebec. A solntion to this problem is to place the distribution system underground in the same trenches as fibre optic cables, He encouraged Council to look at this option in future. Don Welsh, Co-Chair, Clarington Older Adults, 4280 Mearns Avenue, Bowmanville, L1C 3K5, provided Council with an update of the Association's activities. Following the decision of Council that the Older Adult Association be the management board for the new facility, the group met and a management board of six people was formed. It is the intention that this six-member board be responsible for operations until the centre is completed and a general meeting of members convened to elect a permanent board. An application to incorporate the association was made following the November 3, 1997 Council meeting, Following receipt of the incorporation document, application will be made to the Federal Government for charitable status. Council Minutes '-' DELEGATIONS '-' '-' - 3 - January 26, 1998 In the meantime, members have been made aware that tax receipts from the municipality will be issued for any donations toward the Older Adults Centre. Mr. Welsh outlined other areas which the association has addressed since November. For a considerable amount of time last year, the Older Adults Association understood that the association would not be the management board for the Beech Avenue facility. During that time, it was unclear as to whose responsibility it would be to provide furnishings, equipment, dishes, make bookings, etc. Therefore, althongh financial concerns were high on their list of priorities, energetic fundraising has been almost non-existent. Discussions have been held with the Lions Club Members regarding the purchase of furniture, equipment, dishes, etc., and although they knew the purchases would not be used for six months, they had no choice but to decide to purchase approximately $20,000 worth of goods at that time. This has just about depleted the money the Older Adults Association had accumulated. Therefore, the Association has no alternative but to request $20,000 from the municipality at this time. Harvey Thompson, Chair, Port Granby Monitoring Committee, 4720 Concession Road 6, R.R. #1, Newtonville, LOA 110, addressed Council with respect to Report ADMIN-3-98. Mr. Thompson stated that it is the Committee's unanimous opinion that without a very long and costly process, the waste material stored at the Port Granby site will not be accepted by any other community. The members also believe that the waste material cannot be transported safely to another location. The Committee, therefore, recommends: . That Council enter into discussions with the Minister of Natural Resources on the Port Granby site only. . That these discussions pertain to the improvement of the site for safe containment of the waste, i.e.: . Moving some waste. . Protecting the bluffs to prevent further leaching and erosion. . Ensuring that the wastes are separated from the soil and the groundwater. . That these improvements contain the wastes for a very long time, i.e. 100 to 200 years or more. . That the discussions with the Ministry of Natural Resources only include storage of low-level radioactive waste from Clarington. . That the Port Granby Monitoring Committee be part of all discussions pertaining to this issue. . That the residents of the Port Granby area be consulted at various times during discussions of the issue of clean-up of the historic radioactive waste.
