The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, Nov.23, 1995 - 3 Saturday deadline to get on Bethune voters list Focus on two best station Residents near Bethune and St.Catherine Sts., who want to vote in a zomng referendum that could clear the way for construction of a protective services building in their area, have until this Saturday to make sure they are on the voters hist.The referendum is scheduled for Dec.10.The area concerned, along St.Catherine Street between Abbott and The Glen, contains a number of apartment buildings, including the Westmount Park Towers at 4700 St.Catherine, the @roM Bakery building.The amendment would allow municipal offices \u2014 in particular a building for police, fire, public security and the municipal court \u2014 to be built in the area.The amendment was blocked earlier this year when residents signed a register at city hall.forcing the issue to a referendum.The zones concerned are District C2 and District C4-Part 2.People in District C4-Part 2 got themselves onto the referendum list by petitioning city hall earlier this year.The city is mn negotiations with landowner Ron Pickering, who The city clerk\u2019s office has yet to Potential multistation site at 4670 St.Catherine owned by Canadian Pickering Properties Inc.Shaded areas mark zone in question.concerned, a property owner in the sector, or an occupant of a business in the sector.As well, they must be at least 18 and a Canadian citizen.Notices were sent oul last week informing people who are already on the list.Applications for entry, striking off or correction to the voters list may be made at city hall during extended hours today (Thursday, Nov.23) from sites, WMA urges city By BERNIE O\u2019NEILL The Examiner City council should eliminate two of four sites still being considered for a new police, fire and public security station, the Westmount Municipal Association says \u2014 including the existing Stanton St.location where the city has said it would rebuild if it ran into trouble with zoning or price on sites near St.Catherine St.The WMA said council should concentrate on the two remaining sites: property owned by Westmount resident Ron Pickering, near the corner of Bethune and St.Catherine streets; and the CP station site at Victoria Ave.and St.Catherine St.In a letter to council last week, WMA president Kit Finkelstein said the WMA would support either of the two remaining sites \u201cprovided that council makes a clear recommendation reflecting the interests of the city as a whole.\u201d \u201cWe would find it difficult,\u201d added Finkelstein, \u201cto support a recommendation for any site which appears to be based primarily on avoiding conflict, through unduc attention to the NIMBY (not in my backyard) reaction of adjacent res- that he takes the WMA's letter as a move of support for the city council, but said he was \u201ca bit surprised\u201d that the WMA would suggest dropping the Stanton St.location.\u201cThe thrust (of the WMA's motion) is very good,\u201d the mayor said, in urging the city to consider the interests of the entire city.\u201cThat\u2019s what we're doing,\u201d Trent said.However he noted that the prices and dynamics involved are complicated.The city would have to get a good price for its property on Stanton St.before any move would be possible.It would also have to purchase other land at an acceptable price.Also, in both areas, CP and Bethune, a needed zoning change has so far run into local opposition.UP TO 50% OFF Christmas Presents Bonsaï Wong 1510 Lafayette Longueuil, A6S 2336 À ;

families still end up mortgaging their homes to cover the cost of a serious illness in the family.This is not the kind of health-care system that we want, even if it would mean keeping the QE or Reddy open in some form.Thus, any moves to privatization should be blocked.Second.take the cynic\u2019s view, that every act of this provincial government is calculated to advance the cause of separatism, and one can see how through hospital closures the groundwork is being laid for a move toward privatization and, in turn, a fight with Ottawa over the issue of universal health care.It\u2019s the kind of fight that would play into the separatists\u2019 hands in any future referendum.We shouldn't be helping them in that fight.Yes, keep efficient, community-based hospitals open -\u2014 and use the courts to do it if need be.But don't let them become fodder for some government-backed privatization scheme.\u2014 Bernie O\u2019Neill Pickering site not suitable for multistation Studying the past can help us make decisions for the future.The following 1s an argument against 4670 St.Catherine St, being accepted as the site for the new multi-station.Most of the points against selecting this site were made in 1987 by Mr.Ron Pickering, who is presently actively lobbying that his property be chosen.| find it difficult to understand how these points, which were so fervently presented in 1987.are ignored or forgotten in 1995.Although Canadian Pickering Properties Inc.had entered nto a lease agreement with K.LD.S.Westmount Daycare.Mr.Pickering lobbied against opening a daycare tor 48 children in 4670 St Catherine Thanks to those who were fair-minded and clear-head- ed in City Hall (ncluding then alderman, Peter Trent) Mr.Pickering lobby.although strong, was not successful.Arguments, however, were very carefully crafted and were presented by some very influential people.Mr.Michael Gaucher, then President of Sofati and developer of Westmount Park Towers, (adjacent to 4670 St.Catherine St.) with other members of a delegation, including Mr.Pickering, attended the Sept.8, 1987, Westmount council meeting.THE WESTMOUNT EXAMINER reported that they were \u201cconcerned about the issue\u201d of the daycare near their building.Their concerns included noise and traffic which would upset their residents.What has happened to these concerns?Another influential speaker against having a small daycare in that location was Mr.Fortin, then councillor of the district, who AIR a was quoted by THE WESTMOUNT EXAMINER as saying that \u201cin his candid opinion\u201d such traffic would be unfavourable for the area.On Sept.10.1987.the headlines of THE WESTMOUNT EXAMINER: \u201cCouncil caves in: puts daycare centre in limbo\u201d showed how cffective the campaign against a small daycare had been.| quote: \u201cOther forces were at work about the same time Mrs.Wajcer was signing that document (a \u2018\u201ccodical to the proposed by-law specifving traffic control measures for the centre\u201d).According to Alderman Peter Trent, commissioner of planning and redevelopment, he began to receive calls from some of his fellow alderman indicating that residents of the area had been organizing a petition against the daycare.(because of) potential problems of traffic congestion.\u201d On Oct.15.1987.Mr.Pickering deposited an \u201cair pollution\u201d study with City Hall in his relentiess campaign to stop the daycare project.Perhaps this same study could now be looked at in light of potential air pollution caused by a multi-station in the exact same location?Where have Mr.Pickering\u2019s concerns about air-pollution and traffic congestion disappeared to?He seems to have forgotten why 4670 St.Catherine and its parking lot is so unsuitable for any development which would increase air pollution and traffic congestion.Perhaps this letter will remind people.Evelyn Wajcer Director K.1.D.S.Westmount Day Care Arne LRT Br sles ae CAUOMTEIW \u20ac # ?as au.Quilico, Cohen, and the purple coneflower ne of the great things about mayor- Ox is that you get exposed to a lot of different people.Unfortunately, you also get exposed to a lot of different people\u2019s germs.Getting colds becomes an occupational hazard.I'm gregarious, but viruses are downright promiscuous.Viruses shamelessly attach themselves to my person, where, in spite of my prophylactic handwashing, they reproduce at a Malthusian rate.At last Saturday\u2019s open house, 1 gave the library a book.It was a compilation of my EXAMINER columns of the last four years.Anyone with the stomach to read that book will not likely learn much of value.(Of course, what do you expect of someone who reads with their stomach?)

And there will be a job for everyone\u2026Pouf! And a budgetary surplus.Pouf! And economic recovery.Waiting for Godot!

The Westmount Examiner, Thursday, Nov.23, 1995 Schools, commercial buildings evacuated satisfactorily: fire dept.So how fast did schools and commercial buildings evacuate during Fire Prevention Week, anyway\u201d The answer in a nutshell, is that both schools and commercial buildings posted good results, according to Fire Inspector Michel Tassé.Schools fared better than commercial buildings though because they're more used to fire drills.An allowed amount of time to evacuate a building depends on the number of storeys, but the average is one minute per floor.Among onc-storey buildings, Dominion-Douglas Nursery evacuated in 45 seconds, Selwyn House in one minute and St.Andrew\u2019s School in one minute and 45 seconds.Among two-storey buildings, results were: Rainbow pre-school, two minutes; St.George's School, one minute and 20 seconds; St.Mathias Church, three minutes; and Giant Steps one minute.Then there were the three-storey buildings: St.Paul\u2019s Academy and Westmount High evacuated in a flat three minutes; Selwyn House in three minutes and 30 seconds; the Shaar Hashomayim in two minutes and 45 seconds; the Visual Arts Centre in one minute and 30 seconds: Garderie des Enfants in Antiquités Phyllis Friedman ntiquëÿ and À A Purchases Interior Desi À PSE Sensation Elle & Lui Alexis Nihon Plaza 2nd Floor st hét 1 = a o> 35-7165 LABORATOIRE three minutes and five seconds; Roslyn School in one minute and 28 seconds; St.Marcelline in two minutes and 30 seconds; The Study in two minutes; Miss Edgar's and Miss Cramps in one minute and 20 seconds and Vanguard School in two minutes.In four-storey buildings, the results were five minutes and 40 seconds at Dawson College, Selby campus and six minutes at the main campus; three minutes at Kids Daycare.Westmount Park Who's doing what?Monday, Nov.20 4817 Sherbrooke: Bank of Montreal, $206,000 for interior alterations.Contractor: Curwood Inc.308 Grosvenor: J.Pothier.$2,500 for interior alterations, structural work in master bedroom.4714 de Maisonneuve: L.D.Lavigne, $800 for handrail and guardrail.Friday, Nov.17 3401 St.Antoine: Paul Cadieux.$3,500 for parking project and stairs.4 Westmount Square: SITQ, $49,000 for renovations to super- suite.Contractor: Michel Gagnon, Boucherville.47 Staynor.: Michael Morrow, $800 for window work.Contractor: A&W Inc., Montreal.Thursday, Nov.16 1386 Greene: Estate Morris Feinstein for Second Cup coffee shop, $70,000.Contractors: Construction Lavoie Tremblay Inc, Laval.4292 Dorchester: D.Grambin.$1,000 for balcony repair.Wednesday, Nov.15 78 Summit Crescent: Future Electronics, $30,708 for installation of furnace.Contractor Robert Castonguay.351 Olivier: M.Castillo.$1,000 for drain replacement.Contractor: Plomberie et Chauffage Westmount.497 Victoria: Charles Lin, $7,957 for gaz conversion system.Contractor: Plomberie Chauffage Westmount.Tuesday, Nov.14 49 Chesterfield: Stanley Smith, $2,000 for replacement of plumbing fixtures.Contractor: Plomberie Luc et Michel.THE SALVATION ARMY GRACE COMMUNITIES CORPORATION Proposes LES JARDINS ABERDEEN An Innovative Residential Concept for Active Seniors 1 & 2 Bedroom Suites - 5 Appliances Included riable seoure lifestyle withia Reso For further information write or call: 7482, rue Saint-Jacques Montreal, Qc H4B IW3 Tel 487-9866 > + a ow -~ ow - raat eons ma a reo ta ee 2 Estimated Prices $79,900 to $137,900 § - Ce EERE te URAC NAAN \u201c0.ete Tae [ASSAF reall fin cenini s iN ita Bete A Ghd mba dBc a ta Ate SPY NOTICE OF MEETING WESTMOUNT - ST.HENRI PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE ASSOCIATION ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING WILL BE HELD AT WESTMOUNT PARK CHURCH 4695 DE MAISONNEUVE WEST (conver Lansoowne THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7, 1995 AT 7:00 P.M.AGENDA - ELECTION OF PRESIDENT AND DIRECTORS - AMENDMENTS TO OUR CONSTITUTION - GUEST SPEAKER MICHAEL GOLDBLOOM, PUBLISHER OF THE GAZETTE ce) ALL ARE WELCOME!
