Page 3, News, Tuesday, October 29 1991 Election '91 Schreiber Reeve Race Mike Cosgrove Background ebomn and raised in Schreiber and works as a Bell Canada Customer Service Technician eserved one year on Schreiber Council, two years as Schreiber Reeve Treasurer for the McCausland Hospital Board of Governors Why he decided to run «"T think I can still contribute. There's still some pro- jects we would like to get finished." On the Schreiber Public Library *"TIt's just too small. We have to look at either replac- ing it or doing some major renovations to bring it up to standards for fire codes. One or the other." On the Schreiber Recreation Centre "It's my personal top priority." On a new medical clinic «We just spent $20,000 renovating(the current one) to accommodate two doctors instead of just one." «"We've had an unofficial proposal and meeting to get our feelings on a new medical centre for doctor/dentist. There's been no further discussion on that because they were looking for some things we couldn't commit to before a new council." On the cost of garbage pick-ups e(in response to claims that garbage service is more expensive in Schreiber than in Terrace Bay) "Those figures aren't accurate -- I don't know where they come from. They don't include any costs at all on ihe landfill site, which is jointly run by Sctireiber and Terrace Bay." . On the cost of social services *""We don't feel we're paying any more for welfare and unemployment than anybody else. It's just a national trend -- there's nothing you can do about it. The government says 'You will pay 20 per cent, and we will pay 80 per cent.'" On the Schreiber Campus of LSHS -""When the board was originally formed, the under- standing was programs would be split between the two of them. But it seems the focus is towards one school. That's the perception we're getting, and there are concerns that an attempt will be made to close our school again." Joseph King Background elived in Schreiber for the past 17 years eruns local business esat on Schreiber Council for one term eheld numerous positions with the Northwestern Ontario Funeral Service Association Why he decided to run eT think we need a stronger voice to the provincial government. We should be going after more grants, and we should be better heard in Toronto. I just don't think Schreiber's going after anything." On the Schreiber Recreation Centre «"The town should get together with the local con- tractors and have them build (the new hall)." On a new medical clinic e"We've got doctors and dentists that want to stay here, and they should be given whatever help we can with their facilities." «"The ambulance service moved out of the old medi- cal clinic because the facilities were no good. Now they're paying $30,000 in rent . . . that's money the tax payer could've been getting. So if you put up a $250,000 medical centre up, and part of it is a garage, you've got $30,000 in income coming in." On the cost of garbage pick-ups «"My theory is, if Schreiber gets one day a week for residents, two days for business, and Terrace Bay gets two days a week for residents, and two days a week for business, and where Terrace Bay will pick up anything, and Schreiber won't, isn't it worth pay- ing more to get more. value for your money?" On the cost of social services «My understanding is that we're paying $50,000 out of the taxpayer's money, and Terrace Bay is pay- ing $20,000. I would like to see it taken out of the Town Clerk's hands because he is too busy, and give it to a part-time administrator, which the provincial government might fund if the two towns went together on it." On the Schreiber Campus of LSHS eT think Council should discuss with the trustees about what's going on in regard to poor enrollment, instead of waiting for it to come out all at once that they've decided at one meeting that they're going to maybe close it." Bob Krause Background ebom and raised in Schreiber *Locomotive Engineer for CP Rail espent several years on and off council since 1972 Why he decided to run «"] feel the town needs some leadership. I have a lot to contribute to the community, I have the experi- ence and the time to do it. We've heard for years and years that we're not on the side of the government. Well, now we're on the side of the government, and we should be sitting down with these people and see what they can do for us." On the Schreiber Recreation Centre «We definitely have to look at it -- it's costing us a lot of money to keep those trailers there. But it depends on money. It's hard to say what your priori- ties are right now until you get a look at the money situation. We can't afford much more taxes." On other projects "The downtown core has to be dressed up a little bit. I think we have to a little bit of beautification around here." «"Roads and sidewalks have to be addressed, but it depends on the financial situation." On a new medical clinic "T thought we had a fair little medical centre here, but I don't know enough about (the new proposal) to comment on it." On the cost of garbage pick-ups *"As far as the garbage situation, you're always looking at better ways, but you have to weigh what it's going to cost to do it yourself; and what it's going to cost for a contractor. I think you have better control if you're doing it yourself, but it depends on cost. The tax base in Schreiber is not the same as in Terrace Bay." On the Schreiber Campus of LSHS *"The School Board has autonomy of its own. They just say 'we want X number of dollars' and you have to pay it. We have to get some sort of control over the way the school board spends its money. They overspend, as far as I'm concerned." °"They let it (the Schreiber School) deteriorate to a certain point, and then they can say 'it's not paying', but they moved all the students to Terrace Bay."
