Wawanosh (Continued from Page 6) Township of East Wawa - nosh. I am 40 years of age and was born and raised in the township. I am interested'in how municipal government is conducted and if elected, will try to make the right decisions for the taxpayers in both the short and long- term future of. the township. I have been• a councillor for the past five years and served as building inspector before that: We have started proceed- ings for a new bridge on the tenth and I would like to see it completed in the next term of council. We need to keep -taxes----down--as—much- --as-- possible and still supply necessary services which the taxpayers demand. VAUGHN TOLL— As a 35 -year-old farmer residing on the third line of East Wawanosh, lam keenly -interest-ed-in-the-wetfare—d- futureof our township. The ever-increasing cost of education to the ratepayers of our township is one of my major concerns. It is my hope that the tax base for our township may be increased by suitably changing the severance policies to include the development of small businesses, etc. I sincerely appreciate the interest and support which I have received from the ratepayers over the past three years. I hope that you will again support me in the coming election. FOR DEDICATION TO THE COMMUNITY JACK KOPAS for MAYOR
