However, the ministry representatives did remind council they have at least six needy seniors in the area and if possible something should be done for them. One suggestion to council was they participate in a rent supplement program. In this program, up to a maximum of 25 percent of a private apartment building could, with the landlords per- mission, be rented for rent - geared -to -income housing with the tenant having a normal relationship with his or her landlord but part of the rent being paid by the three levels of government. The tenant would pay a rent totalling no more than 25 percent of his or her gross final specifications and plans for the arena. "We also got some sur- prisingly good tenders" for the demolition of the old arena said Reeve Knight. "It's going to take a lot of thinking to pick out the best one." The Reeve also mentioned council would have .to soon pass -1'a resolution supporting the fund raising committee to enable them to begin the processing of their Wintario grant. "Other areas buildiing arenas seem to be running about three months behind on receiving their grants and some of them anyway mut be borrowing the money to pay contractors," added Reeve Knight. However, before the resolution can be passed, the, final specifications on the new arena must be completed and included in the resolution.
