Huron Expositor, 2006-11-01, Page 32Page 32 The Huron Expositor • November 1, 2006 News Grey candidates- talk about need to keep taxes low, care for community halls From Page 8 against spending the municipality's money on the beef plant. "That should have all been private investment," he said. Joslin said, however, he is in favour of the municipality buying land to attract industry, which is "badly needed in the whole riding." Describing himself as a small "C" conservative, Joslin said- he's in favour of creating an economic cli- mate.friendly to business. He added he'd be in favour of the deamalgamation of Grey if "a solid push" could be made. But, he added that since the current Liberal gov- ernment has broken so many promises, he's be surprised if it stood by its promise not to stand in the way of deamalgamation. Grey candidate Orval Bauer told ratepayers that he's seen a lot of changes during his 40 years living in Grey but is hearing more farmers complaining recently. "It's time to have things sent to council to be heard. My goal is to hear people and then serve what they have to say. A small thing can get to be a large thing if it's not looked after at the right time," he said. Grey candidate Dale Newman said he's lived in Grey 30 years and has a desire to get back into municipal politics after serving on Grey Township council for three years before amalgamation. "All I can promise you is I will work hard on your behalf and sup- port fair and efficient spending on all the services we require," he said. Incumbent Alvin McLellan said after being on council for the past 15 years both in Huron East and in Grey, he likes to bring a common- sense approach to council. He praised council for its delayed collection of taxes from farmers and its success at keeping Grey's taxes the lowest in Huron County. McLellan said he wants to see council continue hard surfacing roads in Grey and participate in the care of the community halls in the municipality. "We all work hard but there's too much week left at the end of our pay cheques. I like to get as much out of our tax dollars as we can," he said. c.c Snowmobile • Helmet Full face, black with electric visor. Various sizes.
