The Exeter Times Advocate surveyed prominent members in our community asking for their fore- cast of 1999. Will it be a year of development, change or chanllenges? Or will it be a year of cut- backs, hard decisions or hard work? ORGANIZATION John Richardson, Member of Parliament, Perth -Middlesex "99 WILL BE A YEAR OF: 1999 will be a year of continued economic growth and well being for the residents of Perth - Middlesex and all Canadians. RICHARDSON Despite the economic crisis in other parts of the world, most sectors of the Canadian economy are still quite strong and con- tinuing to grow. My colleagues and I in the federal government are working to enhance the less dynamic sectors of the economy and address the concerns of Canadians, including health care and tax relief. This compassionate attitude towards the concerns of Canadians is placed in an on-going framework of prudent fiscal management. Best wishes to all for a happy and healthy New Year. 40 POLICE BRIEFS Claim your stuff at Exeter No0101406 a I it a re DPP EXETER - The Exeter OPP detachment has a couple of items they'd like to see back in the hands of their rightful owners.

Will it be a year of development, change or chanllenges? Or will it be a year of cutbacks, hard decisions or hard work? ORGANIZATION Robert Benner, Reeve, Village of Lucan "99 WILL BEA YEAR OF:Growth, Prosperity and Optimism WHY?The Township of Lucan Biddulph is a proud, free commu- nity imbued with a spirit of pro- gressiveness. With amalgamation, both Lucan and Biddulph have removed the artificial barriers which made sharing our resources so difficult. We stand ready to meet the challenges of the new commenlity and to seize every opportunity the future offers. THE COMING YEAR'S NGES AND HOW TO MEET THEM?Learning t integrate two inde- pendent organizations and t respect and work with our new partners will prove the greatest chal- lenge of the new year. Around the new Council table we must exploit every advantage presented by the infusion of new ideas and community values. It will be important to capitalize on every improve- ment that we can from our new partners. The challenge will be met by developing a legiti- mate forum at Council to discuss the issues. Each member of Council must be free to discuss fully and without fear of reprisal. This is essential if•we are to honestly appraise existing needs and synthesize solutions that appreciate the needs and limitations of both former communities. Our solutions to local government must be adap- tive and open to amendment in the future -'as errors are found. We need to lose our fear of making errors so new avenues can be pursued. We also need to be flexible in our assessment of old ways, willing to discard that which does not reflect the true needs and values of our community. ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: The future of our new community could not be brighter. We have every- thing we need to make Lucan Biddulph an even greater community than it already is.
