georgetown herald vbualwd by kama nauripapan limited 22 main strmt south gaorgalown ontario w c mthn rumtahw thursday march 23rd 1967 editorial comment council committee fees town councils vote for commit tee fees passed at monday s meeting will be one more wedge in the separation of public office for the honour accorded and public office as parttime employment we have consistently opposed any thing other than a token fee for public of fice on the grounds that those who wish to help their fellowman have many choices if they choose to seek council office this should be on a freewill basis devoid of any monetary consideration if a council position- is to be regarded es one of the towns highest honours then the present 20 meeting fee is much too high and should be replaced with a token a fiat 25 or 50 yearly to cover out-of- pocket expenses if as seems to now be the case coun cillora look on this as a part time ob some method should be devised to pay for the hours rendered proper time records kept and a basic hourly fee established and if this is to be the rule then we looking ahead councillor fred harrisons suggestion last week that georgetown should be con sidering a second cemetery site is one which no doubt has already occurred to members of the board which oversees this community necessity we are unfamiliar with statistics and though a glance at the present cemetery in dicates that this is no immediate problem forecasts of large scale town growth mean that we must look ahead to the day when this must be planned should expect all the towns appointed of fices groups directing the arena and swimming pool the library and cemetery cedarvale centre to receive adequate pay for the services which they now render council thus has two ways to proceed to keep talking about how many hours they spend at the job and thus how much more money they deserve to be paid to assess where time can be saved and cut the pb down to size must councillors deal with every last detail in matters which could be handled by a town employee can pro cedure be streamlined some committee bu siness delegated to one man can council lors who tend to keep appointing them selves to other boards end commissions turn these obs over to other public spirited citizens and concentrate on the job they were elected to do certainly we cannot continue to solicit free public service from one segment of the public while continually increasing fees for those tn senior positions in this part of ontario selection of a site is an important consideration while one should plan to have this within accessible distance of a municipality this has become of increasing less import ance in an age of rapid transit tn an area where population density will increase as each year passes a site should be on land which does- not lend itself to residential or industrial purposes while still providing suitable surroundings for a proper burial ground sevehtysk trombohes emph wis on speaking an increasing focus on public speak ing in the schools is evident in recent years with such projects as the public speaking contest next week in which georgetown s roger smith is a competitor but our schools still have a long way to go in fostering what should be an elem entary attribute for every citizen in this day of mass communication pubic speaking is something which like any other skill must be acquired and instruction and practice are the only way this can be done much progress has been made since our high school days when a student had his onceayear speech and that was itx classroom
