and Jane it was indicated RAP
would be $26500 in the hole even
though their budget was "pared
to the bone".
Shaw said McKinley's
questions may be logical, but
pointed out that when council set
the amount to be given to RAP, it
was assumed by council mem-
bers that the first thing to be
looked after would be wages.
He said council may have
encouraged RAP to keep em-
ployees on, but noted that as
early as August, RAP had come
to council with a schedule of
layoffs for employees.
"We're not shocked by the
layoffs," Shaw added in
reference to fact they had been
predicted earlier in the year.
He did say that he felt the
priorities set by RAP were not for
their employees.
McKinlay replied that council
had rejected RAP's proposals for
cutting back some programs,
such as cutting one session off the
swimming program and deleting
part of the summer playground.
Shaw said that one RAP staff
member had recently admitted
there was little work to do and he
said as outsiders, council
members were wondering what
was being done by the employees.
"We're not paying them to
stand on the street with their
thumbs inserted." Pooley quickly
stated. He said there was work
and admitted that the employee
had made a poor play in saying
there was not much work for him
to undertake.
"There is work," Pooley ad-
vised.
When the meeting was re-
opened, Councillor Ted Wright
presented the motion that council
financially support the retention
of Willert on staff until the end of
the year,
This was approved, although
Patterson opposed it. He gave no
reason for his opposition.
On the matter of RAP
assuming the supervision of the
Saturday programs, Pooley said
it would be highly unlikely that
council members would drive the
snowplow if the works depart-
ment staff had to be laid off.
"If people feel we're badly
wrong, they'll tell us at the ballot
box," Boyle replied after Pooley
suggested the matter could hurt
council members in the up-
coming election.
Shaw said he appreciated the
problems of RAP, having sat on
the committee for four years, and
he admitted that recreation was
always on the bottom of priorities
in Exeter, as well as most
communities.
McKinlay said he thought it
was rather foolish to be building a
$1,000,000 rec centre and at the
same time sitting around arguing
about $2,000 for a recreation
program.
Councillor Lossy Fuller, a
member of RAP, said part of the
committee's problem was the
fact they had no policies or
procedures and said the
formation of them would solve a
lot of problems.
Mrs. Durand agreed,saying the
lack of policies was "95 percent of
the problem".
Patterson was then asked for
further comments by Mayor
Shaw, and the former said he
would like to see at least one man
left on the RAP staff.
At this point, Reeve
Boyle moved that council go into a
closed session.
Later on, RAP chairman Ruth
Durand and member Fred
Simmons were invited back into
the chambers for further private
discussions.
