Willis Ptrty Woods No change in towing System Regional Commission has decided to stick to the present system of towing tenders and let all Firms which won tenders last summer keep their contracts Tht commission had con following the route the OPP has taken and allow all firms in the area to rotate responding to However investigation by Chief Ken has shown the system is not without its problems too Firstly said the various firms still complain to the police and frequent meetings arc needed to straighten out conflicts In addition with the system of calling each opera tor in order docs not always guarantee service since the firms may not respond to a call it odd hours or during poor weather Judge William said he thought might be on the right track after all issuing towing tenders because least service was guaranteed even though the commission has been deluged with complaints briefs from towing firms which lost out on the tenders Wt just have to get a few kinks out of our system he observed Commissioner Bill suggested if switched to the system then any firm which didn respond lo a call could simply be chopped off the list of towing firms the force Chairman Glenn Magnuson compared the system with having contracts with every area towing firm and noted there v as no guarantee of secure compound in the event police need to have a vehicle impounded with the system Magnuson added the police would then have no eontrol over the rates drivers involved in accidents who opt for the police lo call a towing firm would be charged The market will set the rates quick enough If firms don l pla ball they will be off the list declared Mayor Harry Barrett said police might consider having one firm which is called when a vehicle is lo be impounded and rotate all other calls to every available firm FORMER TANNERY PRESIDENT Stewart Bennett right and Jack chat after the first banquet of the Canada Packers Quarter Century Club at the Legion Mr Ayre a former member of the First World
