Brussels' $12 per foot impost
fee on undeveloped building lots
in the village, came under fire
• from councillor Malcolm Jacobs ,
at Thursday night's special'
council meeting.
Owners of the lots must pay the
fee, according to a bylaw passed
inDecember, 1976„ when an
application is made for a building
permit, on lots in undeveloped
areas which require municipal
services.
Councillor Jacobs claimed that
the village stands to collect about
$21,000 in impost fees on the lots
that will be opened up when the
road is completed into the new
arena site. Mr. Jacobs, along with
other property owners, donated
rights of way across their
property to allow the arena to be
built in the Undeveloped area.
On his 82' frontage lot, he'll
pay an impost fee of $894, Mr.
Jacobs said. "Are we trying to

Previously he had worked in the
background for the Conserva-

The Liberals don't have any
chance of forming the next
government and Huron-Bruce
should have a representative on
the government's side of the
legislature, Mr. McGregor said.
Mr. McGregor doesn't think it
will be easy to beat his likely
opponent, Liberal MPP Murray

Councillor Jacobs said he'd
been told before he gave up the
right of way that the impost 'fee
might be $300. Last year's council
had assumed the impost fee
would be less than it is, councillor
Frank 'Stretton told him, until
Gaunt, who has held the riding for
the last 15 years.
"The only thing i can do is go
out and prove to the people I can
represent them," he said.
Two important areas of the
riding - industry and agriculture -
are not recognized by the
Province, Mr. McGregor said. He
told the 150 party faithful at the
meeting, he would work, to ensure
the concerns of the area are
recognized by the government.
they started looking into the costs
of services. "People got their
eyes opened," he said. •
Councillor George Jutzi, who
was also a member of last year's
council, said a planner had told
them that services can cost as
much as $8000 a lot.

voted on in June.
Mrs. Frolick in speaking
against Amalgamation stressed
the value of cooperation between
rather than amalgamation of
O.P.S. and F.W.T.A.O.
Doug Pearson, an O.P.S. panel
member, felt amalgamation
would end duplication of services
and offices at all levels of
Federation. He felt an amalga-
mated group could "speak with
one voice to, the people, to the
boards and to the government."
Dr. Florence Henderson firmly
stated that "for the time being
F.W.T.A.O. should remain the
autonomous organization which it
has been since 1918," She
stressed the value of F.W.T.A.O.
to women, as a professional
organization which will "allow
you to become as highly compe-
tent as possible in pursuing your
role as an educator." She pointed
out the vast differences in the
career patterns of men and
women and advised that "when
our career patterns become more
alike, then there may be a tithe
for amalgamation.',
She urged that F.W.T.A.O.
Members not give up "the one
Organization which „allows your
entry, allows you to stay q, and
develop as a teacher."
P.w.T.A.O. as a proltective
organization is needed to
"support women in pursuit of a
career in Cooperation with other
affiliates of 0.T.Pe"
John Mann as a proponent of
amalgamation • proposed that
inequalities felt by F.W,T.A.O.
members were "due to forces
outside the profeg§ion,'
questioned, "if:the public sees us
divided inside the profession, will
this attitude change?" Other
panel members replying were
