Poor response from ratepayers
Dear editor:
I am surprised and dis-
appointed. to learn that
there has been very tittle
response shown by the
ratepayers to the munici-
_> pal restructuring issue.
Itis very important that
we educate 'ourselves by
reading and asking ques-
tons- as to the implications
of the .proposal and then'.
inform our reeves and
• council members of our
opinions: We voted these
people in to represent our.
interests and• be our voice
in these important issues;
and 'we should be letting
them- know :our opinions
and showing .them our
support.

As both. Rick.
McMurray and . Leo
Murray .pointed out in
their letters, local councils
did not: get a: chance to..
thoroughly examinethis.
latest proposal and . make•
their opposition known
before it was voted on at
the county . level. The tea:
sons for their opposition
are very valid ones.
We already have long
standing' agreements With
our neighbors to sharean
excellent fire ' dep►artment,
our recreation board, and.
the medical centre, .and
there were discussions.
taking place to perhaps'
amalgamate other area of,
service. I; am' sure that
there 'are ways to improve
these and ,e.xpand,these
agreements..
Ask yourself whatthe
implications are of the
amalgamating including
Kincardine as well as
Ripley/Huron. There may
possibly be some advan-
tage to amalgamating in
certain areas but I for one
do not see any advantage
:for us, economic or oilier-.
wise, in making the
..municipalities ;too large,
and uninanageable•, and.
certainly, no advantage in
including Kincardine in
our. area.
• How would such an
amalgamation affectour
taxes? fire departinent?
hydro rates? recreation?
medical 'centre? libraries?
other': services? • Who
would decide where . our
tax .dollars would • be .spent
and on what? Would we,
have fair representation.
If the issde is...to save
tax dollars,, the certainly
we should' be looking - at
other: ways to do this such:
as bulk ,purchasing of sup, -
plies and equipment etc-:
and sharing some . adiriinisy
tration and services with
our neighbors Our coun=
