•Even though the,, John
Deere grader is so newhet
More expensive, Mr ett
said.'he i>I• eonninced .cvuneil
is getting better -value -dr its
money. •
"We all understand about
the deficit," he said adding
he is not w favor of deficit
financing. But the grader
purchase will not be the only
thing adding to a roads
deficit this year as several
construction projects also
went over budget.
As far as the old grader is
concerned, Mr.: Scott said he
feels it is more economical
,for council to keep the Wabco
for snowplowing this winter.
It cost the township $16,000 to
hire a third grader and an
operator last winter, so Mr.
Scott said he thinks some of
that money could be saved if
the township had a third
machine of its own on stand-
by.
However if the Ministry of
• Transportation and Com-
munications - instructs
council to get rid of the old
grader, Mr. Scott said he
would go along with the
order. But he wants to see it
in writing first or have the
MTC officials attend a
meeting.
Mr. Morrison said he feels
it is time for the township to
make a change to John
council is 011t ove
Deer, because he is tired of
fleeing repair bilis to
hampion (for the 1902
grader) in the road aceo
The-.1,984 Champion grader
has a new and untried engine
in it, he added, and the town-
ship road •employees -did not
want another Champion
grader.
As for the deficit, Mr.
Morrison said it will only
mean a carry-over of last
year's deficit of $16,000 "as
far as 1'can see" and doesn't
think it will be as dire as Mr.
McBurney and Mr. Fortune
make it out to be.
Like Mr. Scott, he said he
thinks keeping the old grader
could cut down on winter
maintenance costs for the
township.
When contacted, Mrs.
Wright said she does not
profess to know a lot about
graders, but she believed
Mr. Scott when he said he
feels the John Deere
machine is the best buy for
Turnberry.
Mrs. Wright said she does
not like going into debt to
purchase the grader, but
pointed out if there is a
deficit this year it will be
partly due to the carryover
from 1983 and other over -
expenditures in this year's
road budget, not just the
grader purchase.
Earlier this year when
council applied for sup-
plementary subsidy on the
gender fro;n the i iiniastr3, of
Transportation and COM,
munications, she .said; and
even when council '' ad-
vertised for tenders, that )'
was the time money con-
cerns should have beep aired. ,.
and not after the fact.
Mr. Fortune, who did not
attend last Tuesday's
meeting, said later the
reason financing was not an
issue earlier was that council
did not know by how much
this year's road projects had
been overspent. Mr. Fortune
said he is not in favor of
buying a new grader this
year.
He would have been in
favor of the township fixing
up the old grader and trying
to make it do for at least
another year.
In a telephone interview ,,
late last week, Mr. Mc-
Burney stated his opposition
to the grader purchase. He
said he does not feel the
township can afford a new
grader this year, even with
the $53,500 in supplementary
subsidy offered by the MTC.
The reeve also said he is
opposed to keeping the old
grader because he feels
Turnberry is not a large
enough municipality to
warrant three graders.
As far as winter snow-
plowing is concerned, he
said, the township spent
The Wipghalm Advance-Tlrnes, Aug 29, 14--•P08e 5
$16,000 last year for a third
Marcaine, tq p!ow. its roads.
This year, if cpundll has to
hire a mala, biay the fuel and
pay for the upkeep on the
grader, .he does not feel it
will . save any money by
savings a third grader on
standby,.
Mr. McBurney said since
1985 is an election year he is
concerned about saddling a
new council with a deficit,
which means 'this council
will have to clean up its
deficit next year, possibly by
cutting back on. services to
its ratepayers.
Turnberry may have
received subsidy on the
grader this year, but getting
additional subsidy in 1985
when council must pay the
second installment on the
new machine is still a• big
"if", he added.,
