Issue for disentanglement
At Hullett Township's July 7
meeting, councillors discussed and
approved of the steering committee
created by the province to make
recommendations to cabinet
regarding disentanglement.
The disentanglement of munici
pal road funding is in the first
phase of the process with action to
be taken in 1992. Hullett council is
concerned that the province may
lake action without directly seeking
input from the municipalities which
will be affected. Concern was also
expressed that the changes will
affect farming, commerce, tourism
and public safety.
^Council resolved that the
province should not take any action
and local MPP should not vote on
any legislation until both the
province and local MPP's have
directly consulted with all munici
pal councils.
Charges for July, August,
September, and October to the
Senior Happy Gang for dances held
upstairs were waived in exchange
for preparing and finishing the
floor in the Londesboro hall.
Ron Gross was named as voting
delegate for the A.M.O. confer
ence.
