8 Terrace Review —— Wednesday, October 16, 1991 Library in the wrong corner of the park was not a sensible notion at all. The most sensible solution was to include washrooms in the library expansion. In fact, there had been a plan, years before, to add some washrooms to the exterior of the library, but the idea was scrapped when talk of a library expansion began to unfold. Council, though, ignored the advice and only received and filed the letter. June 5, 1991 — The city, with $54,000 salted away, had gone to tender on the park wash- Continued from page 7 room project and was ‘awaiting the June 19 deadline to see if the project would proceed. = - June 12, 1991 — One city resident spoke up, and this offered alderman Ruth Hallock in a bit of a dilemma. Hallock showed up at a council meeting, letter in hand, but it was decided not to consider its contents until June 24, the date on which city council would consider bids for the washroom construction. The letter indicated the writ- er’s opinion that the washroom structure would be an eyesore, a possible target for vandals, and there might be a safety. concern where young children were. involved. She offered hope that “reason will prevail” and the project would be scrapped. June 19, 1991 — After a long period of silence, the first city/regional district meeting on the cost sharing issue finally took place behind closed doors. Regional district director Les Watmough said both he and director Sandy Sandhals agreed at that meeting that the short comings of the current cost- QUESTIONS ABOUT THE FUTURE OF CANADA? ~ For more information about the federal government's proposals . for constitutional reform, call toll-free: _Deat or hearing impaired call: 1-800-567- 1992 (TTY/TDD) Ma *.

The process of developing a new formula, though, could take longer than it did to get to the first meeting, it appeared. According to Watmough, usages, costs and charges would have to be reviewed. But, Wat- mough added, even if that work is completed in time, the region- al district would want to see firm plans and better cost esti- mates on the library expansion proposal before they agreed to a referendum.

Soutar was the architect on the. original plans drawn up in 1988, and the board felt a new plan was required to adjust for the change in demand over the past three years. ‘Plans by the city at that time called for a November referen- dum, but the actual date would depend on the result of negotia- tions between city council and. the regional district board of directors on a new cost-sharing formula. Thornhill director Les Wat- — mough said those negotiations were going well and the regional district had agreed they should be paying a larger share of the annual operational costs. July 10, 1991 — According to the city’s minutes of a June 26 meeting with the library’ board, it had been agreed that “the library board should com- mence fund raising activities to reach the goal of $150,000". This was one commitment, though, that not all library board - - members felt was realistic. It _ would be a topic of discussion at — ‘their next board meeting.
