Granny flats The relocation of the #2921 Waterloo Reâ€" gional (Army) Cadet Corps to Victoria pubâ€" lic school, a place they can finally call ‘"home," was a most positive step in the 1982â€"83 training calenâ€" dar, said Captain Douglas Karn, comâ€" manding officer of the Corps. Karn was addressing the recent 10th annual inspection of the Corps, held at the school itself where facilities have greatly enhanced the training program. Officer Cadet Jamie Feeham of Waterioo stands proudly with girifriend Jennie Kass during the 10th annual inspection of the #2921 Waterioo Regional (Army) Cadet Corps exercises at Victoria public school recently. Karn termed the year a ‘"rewarding‘‘ one of growth in meetâ€" ing the challenge of the Is the city ready for them? Basically, the granny flat is a selfâ€"contained, portable housing unit, approximately the size of a twoâ€"car garage which can be situated on virtually any resiâ€" dential property. The UW urban and regional planning proâ€" fessor Monday unâ€" veiled his proposal to establish this type of housing in Canada to Waterloo city council members who unaniâ€" mously offered him their®%encouragement. According to Laâ€" zarowich, the granny flat concept has been successfully used in Australia for the past decade where the units Rewarding year for Army Cadets cadet movement. Acâ€" tive recruiting of new cadets was given conâ€" siderable attention and the willingness of senâ€" ior cadets to take an active part in teaching the green and red star cadets illustrated the leadership qualities they have developed over the years. The objectives of the Royal Canadian Army Cadets are to promote citizenship and leaderâ€" ship, promote physical fitness, and promote and inspire an interest in the Canadian Forces. The afternoon of traâ€" ditional ceremony was highlighted by the Inâ€" spection of Parade, the Starting next week, Lazarowich and his team of three assisâ€" tants will be going doorâ€"toâ€"door in Waterâ€" loo to gauge interest in the units. In all, he hopes to survey 200 to 250 city residents seâ€" lected randomly from the voter‘s list. As well, he will be investigating what kind of units peoâ€" ple would prefer to see and plans to travel to several municipalities ‘‘to talk to offiâ€" clals...see what kinds of concerns they have, what are the impediâ€" ments, how they can be overcome." Lazarowich told council he became inâ€" terested in granny flats because he was ‘"conâ€" cerned about the housâ€" ing of the elderly in #94 Warspite Royal Canadian Sea Cadets Corps band and various demonstrations and displays. Most improved cadet awards went to Cadet Kerry Fretz of #1 plaâ€" toon and Cadet Conrad Graham of #2 platoon. Best junior cadet was Cadet Corporal Rob Glennie and best senior cadet Todd Vannatter. Gold Star certificates went to Cadet Sergeant Vannatter, Cadet Corâ€" poral Glennie, Cadet Corporal Jay Murray, and Cadet Corporal Brenda Woods. Best Shot award winner was Cadet Lance/Corporal Blain Woods. Canada. If you look at how we in Canada treat the elderly in terms of housing we have one of the highest percentâ€" ages of institutionalizaâ€" tion. "A large number of people are in nursing homes because we have no options," he added pointing out that currently in Canada 10 percent of the populaâ€" tion is over 65, a statisâ€" tic which is expected to double over the next 30 to 40 years. Granny flats are geared to those senior citizens who are "still independent, fairly healthy and fairly moâ€" bile," he said. Advanâ€" tages of the concept are that it keeps the elderly in the neighâ€" bourhood; keeps them close to their family and friends; and from an economic standâ€" point a granny flat is oneâ€"half the cost of putting one bed in a nursing home.
