PAGE 2 TWIN CITY BOWL $25 Esther Carnahan of 192 Ashcroft PI. said she had not originally intended to speak to council. "Nobody owns a cat," she said. "A cat owns you. It‘s ignorant to think you‘re going to tie up cats." Watered Pauline Robinson of 268B Northlake Dr. addressed council wearing a shirt with a white silkscreened picture of a cat. She told council she would not be obeying the new byâ€"law."I‘d rather go to prison, in which case I‘m taking my cats with me," she said to applause from the full visitors area. Senior citizen Mary Becker of 13 Avondale Ave. gave an emotionâ€" filled plea to council. She spoke about the importance of her cat to her. "I can‘t speak for anyone else, but I love him and if I have to put him to sleep I‘m going to be very very sorry," she said with her voice cracking. . Brad Templeton of 158 York St. told council "The real problem here is cats doing their business in certain people‘s yards. But this law assumes all cats are guilty of that and attempts to exert control." Templeton urged council to change the byâ€"law to "the issue at hand which is defecation and not try to make it broader." couldn‘t do anything about it because there is no byâ€"law." Al Baron bought a house two weeks ago in Lakeshore Village. ‘"Three neighborhood cats like to use my backyard as a litterbox.

D‘Arcy The board shied away from staff reductions in the area of teaching assistants and lunchroom supervisors. While some classroom computers seem destined to be eliminated trustee John Hendry sought board support not to remove computers for special education from the budget. And The fine edge of the cutting knife is drawn, as Waterloo County trustees whittle away at the board‘s $248 million base budget, considering ways to lower the mill rate increase from 16.2 per cent to as low as 9.5 per cent. Last Thursday, board members bantered around inforâ€" mation of what they would like to see sliced from the budget and what should stay. From the informal consenâ€" sus taken during the discussions, administration will return this Thursday and provide the board with a scenario of where their budget stands based on the tentative cuts. Among the reductions are: $802,000 for the replacement and addition of furniture and equipment, a $480,000 telephone upâ€"grading at the Education Centre, $200,000 for intrmediate and senior high school textbooks, $100,000 in program supplies for French immersion, and a $300,000 reduction in services such as courier and deliveries and at the same time raising driver education fees and cafeteria 11th ANNIVERSARY SALE Pencils sharpened as Board analyses budget einda COCCilts O uteriors KAUFMAN OF COLLINGWOOD CATALOGUE ORDERS 20% OFF Stiffel Brass Lamps 25% Off Wildwood Hand Painted Lamps 10 â€" 25% Off Fine Quality Collectibles 10 â€" 50% Off Many More Items Not Listed After 11 years of providing our clientele with superb service and quality merchandise, we would like to invite you to celebrate this milestone with us by offering the following specials on our stocked merchandise: 9 BRIDGEPORT RD.

Business superintendent Al Ewasko told the board local taxpayers would pick up 60 to 65 per cent of the cost to lower the class sizes from where they now stand at 25.4 students.
