three Ontario counties A K Parliamentary to ihcOnUinoTreasurer Charles S said in a issued Queens Park Mr said the erroneous rumors arose apparently be cause a proposal is now in preparation for reorganization of locnJ fiovtrnmenl in the counties of Halton Peel and Wentworth including the City of Hamilton Some citizens apparently have the erroneous notion that tht reorganization of local government will make the December elections unnecessary and that existing councils present terms of office will simply be extended Mr said It has come to my attention that there is confusion in some peoples minds about two important aspects of the local government reform program First of all the Government of Ontario is preparing a detailed proposal for local government miration in the area west of Metro for release late this fall There is still a good deal of work ahead of us and many important briefs from municipal and other interested parties to be and considered No conclusions about the details of those arrangements have been reached yet by the Government Changes in local government in the counties of Peel Wcntworth including Hamilton are going to be made In tht future hut with no timetable at this stage I must state most emphatically that there will be no change In dec for those municipalities whose council terms conclude in Should provincial legislation be established next year to re organize local government in the areas west of Metro suitable provisions will be made at that time to have special elections held to establish local and regional municipal councils In the absence of specific legislation bearing on re organization of local government it is simply not possible or even appropriate to extend the life of municipal councils The hour tost in the Spring
