new schools in both Huron Township and
Port Elgin by 1995."
The forecast adopted last Tuesday calls
for a four -room addition in Port. Elgin-
Saugeen in 1991 and a new "limited
school" with four classrooms and a
smaller -size gym in either Port Elgin or
Huron Township in 1995.
Inglis said the board will finance the
ambitious list with provincial grants and
a combination of debentures and mill
rate increases.
"I think that's the way to go," Inglis
said, noting that debentures help keep the
mill rate increase down and give the
board a stable idea of what its expenses
are.
Estimates are if all the projects are
approved, the board will have to deben-
ture $6 million by 1995 in addition to the
$2.75 million debentured in October of
this year.
Don Stobo, Teeswater trustee, said he
fears the financial load of debenturing
means an uncertain future for the board.
"My concern is where the financial
future of our board is going," he said. "I
wonder whether we can afford where we
are going. Debenturing is an added cost
to the board."
Trustees were told the capital forecast
will mean an extra expense of $2 to $2.5
million a year for the board. Part of that
will be offset by increased grants from
enrolment growth. The board's 1989
budget was $53 million.
"It's a lot of money, but if we're going
to have the increased growth and some
of the programs that are being mandated
on us, I don't know what choice we
have," said Alvin Thompson, outgoing
chairman. He noted all projects depend
on provincial grants.
"If the money isn't available maybe
some of the things will have to be pared
down," Thompson said.
The forecast calls for additions at
Wiarton Public, Amabel Hepworth and
Arran Tara schools, along with a new
"limited school" to serve Sauble Beach in
the 'next, two years.
Other projections are for a six -room
addition at Kincardine District in 1992; a
<four -roots addition at Walkerton Public in
1993; a .four -roam addition :at Lucknow
Central, and six rooms at ;Kincardine
'Township -Tiverton Public in 1994; four
rooms ,at 'Northport in Port 'Elgin, four
MOMS at Saugeen District and a "limited
school" for Port Elgin or Huron
'Township in 1995.
Martindale emphasized that the
forecast, especially in the third to fifth
year :phases,'doesn't mean that the board
will get ;the funds ,for the :projects. It on-
ly indicates to the Ministry of Education
that the .board is ,expecting continued
tgrawth and -seeds to replace portables.
