It was noted the school celebrated its 50th anniversary in 1992. Generally, the school has had an average of 20 students each year. The program taught students about various aspects of patient care and upon completing the program in Wingham students had the opportunity to write their provincial examinations. Mr. Koch said there had been hopes the government would approve an additional year, to allow the hospital an opportunity to make arrangements to put alternate programs in place. He also noted the provincial decision affects a number of similar programs across the province including, Sturgeon Falls, Collingwood and Elliott Lake. Mr, Koch noted that the other centres in the province will also be appealing this decision. But as it. stands for Wingham students, it now means driving to London or Kitchener to become RNAs, Wingham and District Board of Governors.chairman Doris Inglis said that she and the board felt the program "Offered real benefits to the community." She said that in many cases, those students taking the program m Wingham cannot afford the costs involved in training at com- munity colleges. a Mrs. Inglis added that the training offered here had an economic benefit to the com- munity and noted the move seemed to contradict the current thrust of the government - which is to bring training to the community level. "What .1je offer here is what the government is trying to do." With the increasing use of home care programs, she said there will be an increasedneed for RNAs. She said we work with rural people who understand the needs of the community. Reeve Reavie asks if story hours can stay -from page 1 unexpected extra pay period in 1992. Finance chair Bill Ferris said the library committee had the chance to spread the deficit -solving cutbacks over two years so they would be less severe. "They. made a decision to take the medicine this year and then go back to full.services." he said. "From the public view it was maybe responsible," said assistant director Anne Little. "But from our view it's very demoralizing. It's like .we've been slapped down." "I still think a better way of handling • it is possible," argued Brant reeve Dave Thomson. He noted that with the recent library expansions in the county, and the need in today's world for more information, "it doesn't seem right to turn around and shut the doors." Lucknow reeve Stuart Reavie asked if branches could continue the popular story hours that were cancelled along witlm the cut in hours, but director Marzio Apolloni said that's not likely. "Our. priority is to. circulate the material and provide information," he said. He described story hour as a "value-added" service, that the libraryhas spent time and money training staff to provide. "It's demoralizing to think volunteers can do your job (story -hour), at the drop of hat." Little explained. She said a new policy does allow volun- teers -to -do -Less -skilled jobs-tha could free librarians for story hour, but the cut back in hours means even •that may not be possible. Tiverton reeve Dorne Fitzsimmons made a motion to restore full hours to the libraries, and argued it would only cost a two per cent increase in the. levy to provide the "important service". He also accused the library committee of being the only one to cut services because of pay equity costs. But Fitzsimmons' motion was strongly defeated, with only six reeves supporting it. Lines of support for the Port Elgin planning office were much more closely divided. The office was saved by/only the slimmest of mar- gins --a 38-36 recorded vote, and that move came only after Port Elgin promised to pay the rent until the end of this tern. Planning direc- tor Malcolm McIntosh was cautious in his comments following the vote. "Is it for two years? I'm not sure," he said. He added he prefers a 'long tertn' decision. "That's how you do planning," he added, "on the long term." Planning chair Ross Herron was unhappy with the decision to keep the Port Elgin office open. He warned it meansn the county will have to make some harder decisions next year, and suggested a precedent may have been set. "How will we refuse any other municipality if they make the same offer?" he asked. "If others offer offices and goodies, I think we'd be committed to put staff in." The debate " over the planning. office was about saving $20,000 beginning in 1994, according to Herron's figures, but 'Port Elgin Mayor Brian Cleaver produced staff figures showing it will only save $755 once the cost of extra telephones, travel and lost produc- tivity are considered. The politics of the argument showed when Herron asked "Who's running things, staff or the politicians?" Though Port Elgin took • a delegation including the mayor, council, town solicitor, Chamber of commerce and business represen- tatives, Warden Carman ruuerton only allowed the Mayor to speak. "You've used up a lot of time; we have a busy agenda,"Fullerton said. An earlier delegation on the 911 phone service was allowed over 40 minutes to speak, even though 15 minutes were scheduled. In his presentation, Cleaver described the planning office as an. t "indispensable—asset— that—was handed 715 applications since it opened in 1989? He said it serves• 19,228 people, among them "the very people who aretrying to build' our county" through development and subdivisions. That prompted a ' round of com- parisons over which municipality has to drive how far to reach its planning office branch. Herron said supervision is another reason he wanted one of the offices closed. The Planning director now spends just5ono day a week in Port Elgin, and Herron said he could give more direct supervision of staff if there were fewer offices to deal with. "No one can put savings on staff who are under control of management in a bit more obvious way,' he said. "No one can put a dollar figure on that" While Herron said the planning department wanted a final decision on the office issue, Port Elgin reeve Ann MacKay said the offer to pay the rent until the end of this term offers the county a chance ° to look at the actual dollars and services involved.
