Request for details declined,
offer financial statements
The Grand Bend village council
agreed to turn over financial
statements covering the past
three years to Ted Whipp, editor
of The North Lambton Sun. The
paper had requested by letter the
community's budgets from 1972
along with a breakdown of the
works department budget and
municipal employee salaries.
Council declined to provide the
employee wages to the
newspaper. Council asked Mr.
Whipp, present at the meeting,
why he needed the figures but
were not satisfiedwith answer he
gave.
"I feel I am entitled to the
information or at least access to
the information said Mr. Whipp,
commenting he wanted the in-
formation for news story.
Reeve Bob Sharen said the
council could hardly authorize
the expenditure of taxpayers'
money for Mr. Whipp, par-
-ticularly when he was unwilling
to inform them of the nature of
the article.
"You are not telling us what
you want to write. There is a
possible invasion of privacy. 1
don't know why we should spend
tax dollars to give it to you." said
Reeve Sharen.
In a motion passed by council
authorizing the financial
statement be turned over to the
North Lambton Sun,council
agreed to contact the Ministry of
Treasury, Economics and
Intergovernmental Affairs and a
solicitor regarding the situation.
Councillor Harold Green,
commenting that the story
sounded like "a shoot down
story", said he could see no
reason why wages three years
ago were newsworthy.
"Wages are a personal affair,"
said the reeve.
New councillor Robert Simpson
suggested that if the story was
going to be detrimental to the
community he wanted "no part of
it".
"If you want to know what a
former employee was making, go
ask him." suggested councillor
Bill Baird.
Councillor Simpson said he felt
the newspaper should receive the
same information as available to
any taxpayer.
