George
Stanley
seeks
trusteeship

Main issues facing
local schools and the
school district:

@ Maintaining the
quality of education in,a
period of reduced
budgets.

@ Opening up school
board meetings so the
public can feel free to ex-
press its concerns and
can expect to be treated

with respect and
courtesy.
@ Reviewing (and

possibly revising) the
budget process so as to
eliminate the possibility
of mill rate increases
based on misleading or
false financial informa-
tion. ,
How I would deal with
these issues as a trustee:
e@ Join with other
school boards to petition
or lobby the new pro-
vincial government for a
reasonable increase in
education funding. In
line with Premier Vander
Zalm’s stated belief in
decentralization, press
for the repeal of the
Education (Interim)
Finance Act and the
restoring of taxing power
and autonomy to schoo!
boards.
@ Use funding wisely.
Vote tax increases only if
they are for specific,
learning-related, pro-
grams, not funded by
Victoria, that are clearly
desired by parents and
taxpayers, such as:
reducing split classes, in-
creased counseling,
libraries, art and music,
attention to learning
disabilities.
@ Let the public know
that they are welcome at
school board meetings
and can express their
concerns in an at-
mosphere of courtesy
and respect.
@ A full disclosure of
the 1985/86 accounting
records and an audit by
an independent account-
ing firm, with an opinion
given on the budgeting
process. This matter can-
not be ‘‘swept under the
rug’’, or it will leave a
legacy of distrust in the
financial operations of
the schoo! district — past
and present.

look at all options in
courses of action. Deci-
sion making cannot run
along party lines and
must always serve the
community first.

ACCOUNTABILITY

Council must continue
to address the issue of
accountability in terms
of the city and its opera-
tion, particularly finan-
cial accountability, deci-
sion making and priori-
ties. I propose a mid
term financial report for
taxpayers.

SOCIAL SERVICES

Council must take an
active and supportive
roll with our city’s com-
munity services. Al-
though many of these
services may be federally
or provincially financed,
council must initiate,
where needed, firm lob-
bying and support
measures to ensure fund-
ing. The disadvantaged
residents of: our com-
munity must also be
served by council.
