By Mike Kowalski The ceilinq. in the Town council chambers will receive a $16,000 facelift. Despite an attempt by council- 1cr o Bugelii te trini the amount, council last* week appro- yod a new paint job as wel as cleaning cf the air ducts in the ceiling. The exenditure was contained in thel1991municipal budget. "Are we going te bire Miche- langelo?» asked councillor Joe Drumm about the projected $16000 cost of the.paint job. Town clerk Don McKay replied that the work also included cleaning the air ducts in the building's roof. McKay said the painting was for esthetic reasons and tould be postponed but ho suggested that the ducta L7e cleaned as that has not been done since the building opened. Bugelli conceded the ceiling needed painting but felt that part cf the job could be deferred. Ho said the ducts could pro- bably be cleaned for about $2,000 and proposed that $14,000 be struck -from the budget. Mayor Bob Attersley opposed the motion. Ho said mny viitera te Wbitby have remarked on how Almoat $86000 in granta have been awarded te local organiza- tions by Town council. The money was included in the 1991 budget approved by council last week.

McKay acknowledlged the paintirpg is on1ly required for <'oea- metic» purposes, but there was a valid reason1 for including it in the budget. He said staff try te aveid the problem cf doing all major main- tenance work at one time. "This year ýwe felt it was time fer the ceiling to be re-painted. Next year we', ave t address the brick work problem at the front cf the builiding," said McKay. «That dlinches it for me," said Edwards, irA, speaking for the *$60,000 te.
