1~ A-maze-ing RICHARD WEATHERALL prepares to'enter 'The Homelessness Maze,' set up briefly at the' Heydenshore Paviion on Feb.ý 27. The maze was without a* home itself for awhile -- organizers moved it to Heydenshore at the Iast minute after discovering there wasn't enough room to set up at the rec centre.

Prou FROM PAGE 6 cooeonhoue in our neigh- bouhoo.W r advised by Ms Van Luven, 'If wo don't like it, ta move cutl" By what right does she have the authoaity ta make such a statement? We are advised that the co-op tawnhousea (Athol, Green) are expecting te pay tax of $54,000 for '48 units for 1992.. This avea-ages eut te $1,125 per unit. The residential homos in' west Whitby are asssessod $2,500 ta $3,000 plus per year,' and we are infearned that $1,125 for a tewnhouse unit la a healthy tax." How are tho tawnhouses ta be maintained ,ta cemmunity standards? Will this be an obligaton of the Town of Whitby We are aise advised that the properb*es lai question have long bec n zeaied for tawnhouees. This is correct, hewever, they wea-e net zoned for aubsidized co-op tewnhouses. Where will the new childa-en go te achool? Will they requir buslng? If se, who will pY?Or'Ill oua- pak be reduced ta make for more portables? WhileMs McDormott and MIs Van Luven are very vocal in assorting their rights ta, oua- cemmunlty and aise ta, affordable housing, they do net acknowledge the aights of the existing residents of Otter Creek. Aftea- all, we are tald 'If we don't like the hoat, we can got, out of the kitchon." Ms Van Luven should aise, know that [pole who pay $200,000 for a h orne are least likely te, permit that homne, te fali inte a state of disrepair, or te allow their paoperty ta beome cluttered. This cemmunity needs people like the MacDonalds much more than -it needs subsidized ce-operative townhouses. After ail, it la the MacDonalds of this world who, through thoir uneomplaining payment of taxes, make benefits such as health care, welfaa-e, family allowance, unomployment insurance, ancorne supplements and subsidies available for those bass fortunate. Mismanagement, inflexibility and a lack of aensitivity ta the neods of the communitios and the ceaires of property owners are arousing -passions in this town which would bost be left undisturbed. More attention by the mayor, the ceuncil and the Tewn planner should be given when. considering tho future path cf grewth for individual cern- munities, and ta take into accouait the existing structures of these communities.
