THE NEXT ELECTION...
for municipal councils and school boards
will be three weeks early this year. .
It will take place throughout Ontario
on Monday, November 13,1978.
This earlier date means that the time available for enumeration and
the preparation of the Preliminary List of Electors was shorter than it
has been in the past. Also, the time allowed for the Municipal Clerk to
revise the list has been cut back as well.
To make certain that you get your vote on November 13 inlhe correct
poll, please be sure to go and check the Preliminary Lists of Electors
which the Municipal Clerk will be posting soon. Watch your news-
paper, for an advertisement telling you where and when the Lists
will be available for revision.
Separate School supporters should also make a point of checking
the lists. The way you are shown will not only determine which school
trustees you can Vote for, but may also affect the direction of the
education part of your property tax in 1979.
The municipal clerk has a list of people entitled to direct school taxes
and this list can be revised up to Friday, October 27, 1978. There will
be an advertisement in your newspaper informing you where and
when this list can be inspected.,
