Let's at least use the L.I.P. grant where it is needed and request the Government Parties concerned use the same means to clean up the litter on our road sides as they did to *'Oh-so-quickly" have it displayed. Yours truly, Mrs. K. White Distribution of LIP grants Dear Sir: Re: Region. May I suggest that a citizen's organization such as the local Ratepayers apply for part of the funds. The money would enable this association to conduct grass root involvement of the citizenry in the region's affairs. ; This educational program would result in a better in- formed public. The 'elected officials would then bg, re- sponsive to the positive in- fluence generated by this movement. Our proximity too large urban areas de- mands that our environ- ment be preserved primarily for the local residents and not for the use and conven- ience of the cities. Who better could achieve this goal than the ratepaying public in co-operation with our elected representatives?
