the 96-bed Hillside avenue nursing home, allowing construction of the facility to begin by autumn.The office of Westmount MNA Richard French received word Monday that the provincial purse strings have opened wide enough to cover the estimated total cost of $8,680,000.Last October the treasury board turned down funding the project when it was presented as part of a package of new capital expenditures by Health Minister Thérése Lavoie- Roux.Mr French said at the time he was confident the money would eventually be approved.The pricetag has increased considerably from the $4 million cost projected only two years ago.The new budgeted figure includes the land purchase from Westmount as well as construction and outfitting costs.Quebec is paying Westmount $370,000 for the

between Westmount's mayor and her councillors remains no closer to resolution today than it did a week ago.If anything, the fevered-pitch discussions and blunt talk have served only to polarize positions.Both sides have backed themselves into corners from which they will have trouble escaping without huge amounts of compromise and understanding.Midst all the degeneration of the discussion into matters of personality, it has been all too easy to lose sight of what exactly needs resolving.The problems seem intractable because most personality differences are.And, to be sure, this issue is rife with personality conflicts, between and among mayor, councillors and top city administrators.But most personnel managers would agree, we think, that personality clashes are more the product, not the cause, of problems within an organization.A winning sports team, for example, usually hums along with a minimum of clashes; it\u2019s left to the cellar-dwellers to fight among themselves.It is unfortunate, then, that the past week's discussions have foçussed more on the personalities and not on the root causes of what makes those different personalities unable to function together in a productive manner.After all, those involved in this sorry spectacle are intelligent, well- educated adults, used in all the many facets of their lives to dealing with and getting along with all manner and types of persons.Let us look for solutions, then, not in trying to change the basic nature of those involved but in the underlying problems that have brought those personalities into a clash.Failure to do so courts provincial intervention and even trusteeship which some municipalities have suffered for less.This is to be avoided at all costs.* * * THOSE underlying problems fall into two categories: the specific nature of the issue that brought this whole mess to the fore and the general idea of how our city is to be governed and run.Let us begin with the specific issue of the mayor's secretary, for it brings into focus many of the general issues as well.Councillors may indeed be upset at Mayor Cutler for the manner in which she both approached the hiring of her new private secretary and then took the decision to suspend the director general because of his actions in thwarting her efforts.However, they have abjectly failed so far to recognize that a single incorrect thing was done or even might have been done either by the director general or the commissioner of administration, Councillor Tingley.This is astounding.In the first instance, council seems completely uninterested in studying the reasons why the incumbent secretary, by all accounts very competent in her work, found conditions so unbearable in her work that she was forced to look for a job elsewhere.Why did they not want to hear or learn about her view of the struggle over control of her position?Second, why does council not want to know why the director general created a job description for the position which the mayor says is at variance with council's own directives of January 1988 which acceded to the mayor\u2019s wishes for a private secretary under her own control?Third, why does council not want to know why the director general took his complaint about the mayor's notice to Councillor Tingley and not to the mayor herself?Do not any of these questions deserve a public answer?Might not those answers provide precious input into judging the worthiness of the mayor's ultimate decision?Most importantly, we have yet to receive an adequate answer from Councillor Tingley why he felt he should directly overrule the mayor and order the notice removed.He says it was because he feared a union grievance, but is this such a huge fear that action against the notice was required right away before bringing the matter to council as a whole, particularly when the mayor had verbal approval of her action from the union leader?And if the threat of a grievance is considered so grave and the protection of employees so essential, why is he unaware and seemingly unconcerned about other personnel issues, including the apparent non-posting of other positions and, indeed, the creation and fostering of the atmosphere which led to the resignation of the mayor's competent secretary?For a councillor or administrator to directly countermand the wishes of the mayor is a grave step, yet council as a whole thus far has chosen to ignore those actions completely and instead has given the director general reinstatement and new statement of confidence.What does this tell us about the attitude of council and the senior city management to the mayor?It tells us they have determined the mayor, despite her clear and strong mandate for change

safety and preventative measures.W.Timmons, TP1 Director of Fire City of Westmount 19 Stanton street WESTMOUNT PQ H3Y 3B1 Mayor can\u2019t run city all by herself Sir: The following is submitted because I am a concerned citizen of Westmount, and not because I am my mother's son.It is not based on privileged information, as I do not possess any.The objective of any city government must be to provide the services and leadership that its residents desire in a reasonably efficient manner.The Westmount bureaucracy is certainly not perfect, but I fear that efforts to improve it are not possible with the mayor\u2019s current style of leadership.Regardless of the level of public support, the mayor cannot run the city single- handedly.She requires the assistance of her fellow members of council and of the city administration.It is for this reason that those roles exist.Under the current system, the council votes on all decisions and the will of the majority prevails.If the mayor, or any other city councillor, wants to achieve something, he or she must build a consensus and gather support.If the mayor had tried to from the current impasse is to reassert its individual councillors and individual employees to determine instead what is best for the city.* * * THIS brings us to the general problems which lie behind this specific incident which has blown the issue wide open.In our view, it is a problem of management \u2014 not city administrators managing the city but of city council managing the administrators and instructing them what is expected of them.The first and most obvious element of the council/management relationship is the civil servants\u2019 respect for and obedience to the authority of both the mayor and council.Councillors have made clear from the day she was elected, in many ways both large and small, that they don't like the mayor's methods and therefore it\u2019s all right for the city\u2019s top executives to not like them and her too.Like a child playing two parents off against each other, management of the city has exploited this split among the rule-makers to make the rules themselves.What the mayor is trying to do is to get council to see that the differences between herself and the councillors have been exploited and indeed encouraged by management to its own ends.Indeed, the management strategy has worked very well; the current crisis is ample evidence of that.As long as the rift continues, management will remain free to manage itself, instead of being managed as it should be by the mayor and her council.We believe the mayor and her council! can work together, but only if they begin with the same premise on which is built successful parenthood, that they will speak with one voice to those they are to control: the managers of the city.Instead of being ridiculed by city council, the mayor should be supported publicly in any and all positions she takes with city management.If there are disagreements with her style or actions towards management, let them be aired and settled only in the confines of council's private caucus.Similarly, if council agrees on something not to the mayor's liking, she must accept the decision.Then let council speak with one voice so the meaning is unequivocal.* * * COUNCIL'S primary job to extricate itself do so on the issue of expense control, she would have found council to be a receptive audience, as it was they and not she who made that theme central to their platforms.Whetherornot it is possible to run the city in a more efficient manner, the mayor cannot expect to make improvements by verbally attacking those who can most help her achieve what she desires.By lashing out in this irresponsible way, she has done the cause of good government in Westmount a grave disservice.Another public meeting or even an apology will not serve any useful purpose.The mayor must change her ways or her job.Ian Aitken 95 Arlington avenue WESTMOUNT PQ H3Y 2W5 Editor\u2019s Note: The writer is the son of Councillor Sally Aitken.Un-Westmount happenings are all regrettable Sir: It is with great regret that we have seen in the last few days some very un- Westmount happenings in our city administration.It is regrettable that a neophyte mayor with ideas for reform has been unable to enlist the co-operation of any of her councillors.It is regrettable that in frustration she found it necessary to bring things to a head by suspending the director general and one of our commissioners, knowing full well that the council would reinstate them.It is regrettable that a councillor saw fit to ignore two possible grievances but used a third one to give some semblance of legality to the director general\u2019s denial of the mayor's right to select her own private secretary.It is regrettable that the director general Continued on next page ER BE BA SE PRES Sh control over the city management structure.Not the mayor.Not individual councillors.But city council as a whole, the sovereign voice of the people.They must call the shots \u2014 together.Mayor Cutler has been accused of not being a team player, and indeed has admitted she has not.But we believe she has not been given the chance to join the team because council never made a clear and forceful statement to management that she was, indeed, not just part of the team but its leader.Which she rightly is.It is time for council finally to welcome her to the team, acknowledge the authority of her mandate for change and for her to accept to be a part of it.That involves council making clear to management they will brook no disrespect, no undermining of her authority, no playing off of councillors against her, no petty impeding of her legitimate exercise of her duties.It involves individual councillors conveying in all possible ways to all city staff that Mayor Cutler is the leader of their team and showing outside the committee room that they back her.It involves reinforcing her reasonable wish for a private secretary so she can do her job efficiently and creating a meaningful council committee for executive review to see if management changes are necessary.For her part, we believe the mayor could respond to such gestures by council by tempering her go-it-alone zeal and instead using her undisputed talent and skills to bring others \u2014 councillors, citizens and employees alike \u2014 along on the ride with her.And we believe she will, if she is given the actions to go with the nice words that demonstrate she no longer will have to scratch and claw and fuss for every little bit of progress that is to be made in pursuing the agenda the people entrusted to her.Westmount can and should be too wonderful a place to have to endure the chaos and division of the past two weeks.It is a community of talent, energy and ideas.We have a diverse and representative council that is fully capable of harnessing it all and a dedicated staff of city employees who are capable of putting it into practice.If we can\u2019t make Westmount work, who will?And if Westmount can't work, what will?

the outbreak of the Great War, he again enlisted in the navy in which he remained until 1918.After demobilization, he returned to Westmount.On July 2, 1929, he was promoted to acting lieutenant and

fiscal restraint in mind.Let's hope so.It is more than time that we all buckled down to some very serious thinking about debt and deficit.Despite the political currency of constitutional and language issues, the most serious threat to this country and its citizens lies elsewhere, in the steady and pitiless accumulation of financial obligations by our three levels of government.This is the sombre side of the heritage we are leaving our children.At the end of 1987, provincial and municipal governments owed $230 billion, while the federal government owed $254 billion.Over the last four years, the national debt (the debt owed by the federal government) has increased by no less than 70 percent; a 70 percent increase in four years! \u201cOur debt situation has gotten to the point where, each year, the interest payments on the debt account for more than the entire federal deficit.We are borrowing just to pay the interest on the public debt; we are not reducing the principal at all,\u201d Allan Taylor, CEO of the Royal Bank of Canada, said recently.According to Mr Taylor, the debt picture translates into higher interest rates, which reduce business investment, which lowers standards of living.Furthermore, very high levels of debt reduce our independence because we are borrowing abroad.In the past decade, foreign debt has quadrupled, growing much faster than the growth of the economy.Ten percent of Canada\u2019s export earnings went to pay interest on foreign debt.Canada is one of the industrialized nations with the bleakest and most vulnerable debt situation; only Italy has more public debt as a percentage of gross domestic product than Canada.If this is the problem that Mr Mulroney wishes to tackle then we should all support him.It is the number-one threat to the future and well-being of Canadians.David Berger Says.Seeking common ground DISENFRANCHISED: A word repeated often in the past month.English-speaking Quebecers, indeed many francophones I've spoken to, feel that no political party represents them.Betrayed by the Quebec Liberal Party, fundamentally opposed to independence espoused by the PQ, who is there to turn to?There is talk of starting a new party or running independent candidates.Neither option holds much potential of changing things.What about the federal parties?Beyond comforting words from the prime minister and the secretary of state, chances are nil that the government will alter its course on Meech Lake.The only hope is the Liberal Party of Canada, and at that, it's slim.Historically, French-speaking and English- speaking Canadians have found common ground in the Liberal Party.This has almost been our raison d'être.We have been able to agree on the kind of country we wanted to build and, in particular, the relationship between English and French-speaking Canadians.We have shared a broad view of citizenship \u2014 we have believed that individuals of both language groups ought to be able to live and fulfill ourselves in all parts of Canada.And so it was that those who fought for the establishment of the French fact in Canada, not just in Quebec, found a home in the Liberal Party (and that the party served as a vehicle for their aims).Yet, today, when many Quebecers are looking to the Liberal Party of Canada for leadership, the party remains divided.While there are those who believe we must defend the national interest, there are others who argue that we must align ourselves 1say You Say Continued from previous page has for months blatantly demonstrated his opposition to the mayor, got involved in

council, we had to hear all about his devotion and administrative qualities, when it has been demonstrated that his administration necessitates two to three times more personnel than our sister municipalities for equal if not better service.It is regrettable that this council, most of whom were elected following a tax revolt initiated by the WMA six years ago, to replace the then-MacCallum administration, except for Brian Gallery, has seen fit during their administration to further increase our taxes and render the access to information from city hall almost impossible.And what is most

Westmount plans to spend in excess of $10 million over the next eight years on rebuilding some of its deteriorating roads.City engineer and public works director Fred Caluori has prepared a schedule that calls for the reconstruction of 27 streets or sections of streets between now and 1996.\u201cA lot of Westmount '\u2019s streets were built 50 or 60 years ago in the early part of the century and are now in need of reconstruction,\u201d Mr Caluori said in explanation of why so many streets need attention at one time.A number of tests are used to give an indication of whether a road should be rebuilt.A combination ofa visual inspection and analysis of core samples of the roadway surface and concrete base reveal its physical state.Roads with bases of macadam rather than concrete are tested for their compressive strength.\u201cThe age of the pavement gives you a very good indication as well.By 60 years you know it\u2019s about time to replace it,\u201d Mr Caluori said.Road deterioration is accelerated by a number of factors: routine road cuts performed by utilities such as Gaz Métropolitain and Bell Canada, heavy volume and weight of traffic and the annual freeze-thaw cycle.Roads built on a slope are particularly vulnerable because of running water in the bedrock and the extra salt needed on hills in the winter.The salty run-off penetrates the road surface and eats into the

a street a new surface.\u201cIf the concrete base is still in good enough condition, we can scarify it, scrape off the asphalt and just resurface it,\u201d Mr Caluori said.In 1978, The Boulevard was scheduled for reconstruction.Test samples revealed the concrete base still had some life in it, but the roadway was in bad shape, so it got a new surface.Resurfacing is much quicker and cheaper, running up a tab of about $10 per square metre.Mr Caluori said reconstruction will cost in excess of $86 per square metre in 1989.Westmount\u2019s tentative eight-year schedule of road reconstruction is provided below.He emphasizes that it is only tentative.Certain roads may be done sooner or later depending on their condition.Following the name of the road and the section to be rebuilt is the date of the original construction or the last reconstruction, the date of the last resurfacing and the area in square metres.A range of dates indicates different sections were done over that period.1989 Devon avenue, throughout, 1912 and 1921, 1971, 3,025; Olivier avenue, from St Catherine to de Maisonneuve, 1914, 1968, 1,440; 1990 Cedar avenue, throughout, 1933, 1971-72, 3,418; Metcalfe

city council to decide how to route traffic at the intersection of Clarke, Sherbrooke and Côte St Antoine.That block will be done this year.Resurfacing of Westmount and of Claremont avenues, between Sherbrooke and N.D.G avenue, is also planned for 1989.To resurface these two roads, the city will use a method introduced last summer on Lexington avenue.À single truck, known as a hot scarifier, heats up the surface, scrapes off the top inch of asphalt, mixes in a rejuvenating agent and lays the mixture back down.À steam roller smooths out the road and another 11/2 inches of new asphalt is
