Kirner would also Ike. one cf the two outdoor "bowls» at Wil-' low and Péee Parka~, "to down and done right.n He calîs the bowls, "danger traps, they'ro i terrible shape. andc need revair. "Wt doesn t seoin the Town's able te maintain them until the summer when they can hiro stu- dents." Kirner says more socurIty i needed toeut down on vandalisin and more effort required te keep the bowls dlean. "This year they'll spend $35,000 on Willow, that's fine. HBut Fin sure if an engineer looked at them ie s ecommenda- tion would ho te- tear -thein down." Morrow acknowleges that upkebep of current facilties must not ho lest in the rush te buuld new parks or arenas. "There has te ho a commitment te existing facilities, ou can'tlot thein deteriorate." To ease somne cf the pressure on "summer" sort, there are some projectsabout te coin. on stream or i the planning stages, BavasMorrow. Kelloryn District Park, a $1.5- million park north of Dryden, Blvd. hotween Anderson and Gardon St., will ho ready hy the faîl, There will ho twolihe hall diamonds at the park.L StiR awaiting approvai are the addition cf a second lighted dia- mond and two soccer flelds in Brooklin.

Jack Wilson Parkt on Ander- son St., north. cf Rssland Rd., la under construction ýand will in- clude two ocer'pitches. A bail diamond and soccer fleld are planned for the Arvi4 sub- division hoing built on Thickson Rd. N. and two soccor'fields proposed for Forest Heits Park i2ih of the Town hall. Ini addition the recreation * dopartent wih identify nte il achool board fields for in- proveinent. As Morrow notes, except for the school property, the. new pro- jecta mentioned previously are hoiing done in conjunction wth developers. I 1988 the Town adopted a park landI development policy * which stipulates that parka muet ho included in new subdivisions as part cf the ment hotween *the Town and ove o er. Developers are r naile for the coot of neighbo rhood parks. Ini the case cf a Kelloryn District Park, it la a shared cost. Brell blieves this oc referr=n1 to the nuinher -of parka- b iAs for 1megaprjects", Brunolle saysthere 'are other factors whicéh muet ho considered. He mentions the public workse centre now under construction and the proposed senior citizens' 1centre and firo hall,'as examples of Town services that must com-. pote with recreation facilities for a share cf the tai dollar. Soccer's Methvein, for one, feels that taxes will always increase whether new facilitiie are built, or not. ."F they can accommodate most of the.sports groupe in Whitby b raising taxes a little bit, it will make moat people happy,» says Methven. Hockeys Brousseau concurs. ".1 think one of the drawing carde for places like Whiitby is the access to ail sports. They're well organized, kids have the opjrtuityto etinvolved. belleve.g<le woiild be open te increased taes, te have more facilities available." Lacrosse's irner dissents. "There can't ho an acroas-the- board tai increase te, pay for something for on!,y a minïority of the people te, use.' .Kirner says tai dollars are necessary te, build a facility such as an arena but he feels a user pyconcept is needed te, main- "I would hardly cal Our coin- munty a poor one. I think a majority cf the people would ho preparod te pay for more of the coet themselves.» Brunelle disagrees. 'Mhe pc f housing and taxs no Wity Ios pretty hefty. ,ç n ýod ifpeple move here and can t afford te use recreation facilities," says Brunelle. «Peolewill say 'Why shouldl payi Pin already payig hbo~ my taxes?, I tend te agree.
