Council and suggested the ;re
quest to the Solicitor General
should include the provision that
any study undertaken by that of
Tice would. examine "all .the. ,posy
sible alternatives with regards to
policing".
The action stems from a report
by the Task Force on Policing in
• Ontario which has suggested that
all municipalities . under ° 15,000
. persons would be policed by the
Ontario Provincial Police with all
other forces to. be disbanded.
If this was ;made legislation,. it
would mean that the police forces
in Huron's five towns would be
dissolved.

forces. .-.`
It was pointed out at the meet -4
ing that in the future, it appears
that the rural areas will also be,
paying through their municipal
taxes for police protection by the
OPP. That being the case, it was
felt by some that a Huron County
Police Force might be the most
economic method of policing.
A brief containing 20 public ad-
vantages to be gained through a
county , police force was on the
desk of each councillor for study.
It promised faster service to the
public in Huron County; central
dispatching; improved salaries
and benefits for police officers;
and improved policing in many
other ways.
The presentation noted the
OPP would still patrol the high-
ways and be a part of justice in
Huron.

The ',council agreed with the
