Although council was assured by the minister that Whitby is being considered for "future programming" they were not told why their request for the barriers was turned down. The response did not please the initiator of the request, West Ward Coun- ciloor Joe Bugelli. "We want'to know what criteria the ministry used to make its decision," Bugelli said. In referring to a series of questions recommended byt the town's operations com- mittee, Bugelli added that "We will send a letter to the minister asking why Whitby wasn't chosen." The town will also request information on the criteria set by the province for determining where the barriers will be erected, and ask when the province will be prepared to put them up. A copy of the letter will also be sent out MPP George Ashe (PC - Durham West) "requesting his support and assistnace in this matter."
