appointment and operation of the ettettment committ toner system of assessment we developed a distaste for some of the power that go with the position for instance n attettment commissioner once appointed by the county council and ap proved by the minister can only be removed by the council with the mini tier t approval thit provincial power at a local level merely because of ijandoutt from the province leaves ut dubious about the plan decided it would be advantageous not to have the bridges constructed during the win ter montht and felt a start on construction could be made early thit
