BOWMANVILLE © MN YY ATALAL EPRESENTATIVE--HENRY HO LFORD AND DISTRICT. - = PHONE 881 VMlichael Starr Deplores ack Of Enthusiasm For Service To Municip -- "The sacri- ces of councillors at the munici- 'al level of government are much 'eater than those of representa- ves in higher levels," said Michael starr, Progressive - Conservative, .P. for Ontario County, speaking Rotarians at the Balmoral Hotel a the occasion of Municipal Night st Priday. "But the one conso- Jtion is that as a representative in our own community you are a big sllow--in Ottawa you are only a ackbencher," he said.

HOUSING SHORTAGE { Among the problems facing | councillors today, he cited the shortage of housing. Mr. Starr said that as soon as a council approves a permit to build a house, it is committing itself to expenditure. "Taxes will not cover the Costs of services provided," he said. He pointed to sewers, water, sidewalks, garbage collection, and police ser- vice as examples of high-cost ser- vice. "The only way to cut down expenditure is to stop building-- and you can't do that," he said. Mr. Starr gave the opinion that the best type of building to en- courage was for factories and of- fices. He said that fewer services were extended to those kinds of building, because they often had their own incinerators, or else little garbage, and often had their own security police system.
