The Chair of the Ste. Anne Police Board wants moreresidents to give input on what they'd like to see fromtheir local police service. Andre Lafreniere says theboard held its first public meeting last week and onlya few people attended. "We would have liked to see more people show upbecause the goal of the Police Board is to hear fromthe community to see what the community wants tosee in policing. We act as a liaison between thecommunity and the police." Lafreniere says the Police Board was establishedaccording to provincial legislation that requires allmunicipal police forces to answer to such a boardrather than to their municipal council. "We're an independent board. We operate on ourown. We do provide reports to town council and alsoare responsible to the community." He expects the community will become more in-volved as it comes to understand the process. Ste.Anne Police Chief Marc Robichaud likes the conceptof the Police Board. "It promotes transparency in policing and I thinkit's another opportunity for people to be collabora-tive with the police department and help us. We don'talways know how to do everything and we don't alwaysknow the best way to do things so it's always great tohave more input on the way we can do things better." Lafreniere encourages residents of Ste. Anne to con-tact him or other board members to share their viewson policing. He adds they will have quarterly meet-ings where the public is always invited to take part.

Residents’ InputDirections:1. Peel the zucchini. Cut into quarterslengthwise, then remove the seeds and cutcrosswise (as you would apples for apple pie).Toss together 4 cups of chopped zucchini, lemonjuice and salt. Place mixture into a frying panand cook until tender-crisp.2. In a separate bowl, mix together the brownsugar, cinnamon, cream of tartar, nutmeg andflour. Add the cooked zucchini to the sugarmixture and mix well. It will be a little runny, butthat’s okay.3. Place filling into a 9 inch pie crust, dot withbutter, and place top crust on. Bake in oven at400 degrees F for 40 minutes or until goldenbrown.

If you or someone you know can’t eat apples this is a great recipe, my husband can’teat apples, but loves apple pie! So I make this recipe using zucchini and he has hisapple pie but won’t get sick. No apples! Try it for someone you love.
