Clinton News-Record, 1975-04-10, Page 5,CLI17?' NiSti1"..!,Fosa Unnecessary' Dear a ditO6 To, whom it may concern and that includes the majority of taxpayers and renters of Clinton. Many of our citizens have read in all our daily papers about the huge increase in municipal taxes that all tax- payers, and indirectly all renters, can expect in the next year or two. Yet in spite of all these warnings, our Town Council seems bent on increasing the ,local tax by erecting a Senior Citizens' Club House. According., to reports, there are 600 senior citizens in Clinton but the average at- tendance at their meetings is about 50. To me this is democracy in reverse - the minority not the, ma jority rules. I can just hear the remarks of Councillors and others "Oh the government will help us to pay for it." Who is the Govern- ment? All taxpayers are. No building maintains itself on air. From where is this money to come? Again from our taxes. When and where is all this unnecessary spending going to nd? Most clubs and club houses are built and financed by their own members. To me 'the fair way is that this building should be built and maintained by those who are using it. If I need repairs to my property, I pay for it myself without any help from others. In this age of so much being written about "setting an example" surely we senior citizens should be doing so. Let us put aside our selfish wishes and work for the good of the community. t organiz tion and too Con, vention in particular. Yours very truly "Another Senior Citizen" Info Dear Editor: As publicity chairman for the Ontario Medical Secretaries Association, I am writing you to give you a little information on our OMSA and would like at this time to request a paragraph in your publication.
