ban has now been lifted.
The directors decided to
adopt a suggestion by Gerald
Fatum, of Fergus, that groups of
directors meet with county and
municipal ,councils throughout
the area to fill in the elected
representatives on MODA.
"Most councils don't know
anything about MODA," Mr.
Fatum commented.
Warden James Hayter, ., of
Huron County, pointed out that
most of MODA directors are not
members of councils.
"So often," he said, "councils
appoint people to jobs and then
never hear of them again. People
don't seem to realize when they
are named to a board . or
commission they have . a
responsibility to report back to
the body -+which appoints them."
T. H. Isley, Reeve of Waterloo
Township, said when his council
.makes an appointment he asks
the appointee to report back at
every ",meeting of council.
•However, he agreed, this is not
the usual practice.
Several of the directors
mentionedways in which
MODA had been of assistance to
-the municipality they represent.

• looking for' a dentist for several

dentist read a MODA brochure
on the area, became interested in
this part of Ontario, and is
considering settling here. ,
"If MODA has done nothing
more than attract a dentist to
Milverton, its efforts would be
worthwhile," Reeve Gerth
commented. He explained there
is a large farming area around
Milverton whose residents have
to travel many miles and, wait a
long time to receive dental
treatment.
" A sampling of some of the
plans which have been
formulated by MORA as the
result of a number of studies of
the area, include a program for
the controlled development of administrators.
