They are opening a work! friendship shell and have extended an invitation to the mayor to give his per- sonal comments on behalf of poderich. 'At council a mo, tion was passed that anyone wishing to attend, contact the towel�,,cleek and he would make the necessary ar- rangements. I would assume by the text of the motion that this would include any tax- payer in Goderich wishing to Fam . • go. I understand that the town will pay for the expense of the mayor, council members and certain administrative staff. To me, this is nothing more than a paid holiday at the' taxpayers' expense. I would like to know how many would attend at their own expense. As a member 'of council I feel that the mayor and his wife should be the only persons to attend at the expense of the tax- payers.
