PAGE 8, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2, -1982, WHITBY FREE PRÉESS Trusteels may, set own pay s.cale OSHAWA - Trustees of the Durham Board of Education may soon be able to establish their own salaries for the first time in eight years. Since 1974, the trus- tees' salaryof $7,200 per annum has been esta- blished by the Ontario Education Act, and is based on the number of stàdents enrolled in the system. ,However, legisiation currently being propos- ed to the pr-ovincial governinent may give the board the right to strike its own stipends. At ita meeting last week, the board ordered its finance committee to make recommendations for a new salary struc- ture for trustees in the event the legialation te passed. However, two trustees said that they were con- cerned that the stipends would have"to be esta- bllshed before the November 8 municipal election. Trustee Linda Carder (Pickering) said: "IWe are the only elected offi- ciaIs ln' the province wbo would be requlred to set our own remuner- ation before an election and for three years. " Trustee RuthULfarga (Oshawa), chairman of the personnel and ad- ministration commit- tee, shared these con- cerna. While she said that she was "not in favor of trustees as fuil-time people",' trustees should be able to determine their own pay scale. 1"Wbat othe elected bodies do not set up their own salary levels?" Lafarga asked. She added that it is, important that the board deal with the issue prior to the elect-- ion and, hopefully, even before the board takes is summer recess, in July and August.,' Like other municipal politicians, trustees'-0f, the Durham Board of Education will be elect,. ed for a three year term. -Bridge resutlts The following are the results of last week's play at the-Whitby Curl- ing Duplîcate Bridge Club as reported by Mrs. Harvey Winter.
