citizens of Halton Hills for better clarity According to the tabulations you received over votes however the challenger who was relatively a newcomer an unknown and in some peoples minds an outsider received close to votes Hie message to you should be clear many people in Hills are interested in change Not everyone is in support of the status quo Your attitude re ratepayers groups is rather flippant at best The fact of the matter is that there are close to organized and concerned citizens groups in Hills at this time The ma of them are concerned about the environment in fact a number of their are be ing dealt with at the provincial level These concerns are valid and legitimate because they have far reaching implications for the community of Hills According to your comments we have a

Your reference to a dirty campaign brings back memories of the dirty cam paign that was waged Halton Hills three years ago particular in the election for mayor If councillors can dish it out as a number of them did three years ago then surely they are capable of taking it as well Then back to the How long have you lived here syndrome which seems to be a major con cern in Hills Apparently the

consider Mary Shier Pick up the signs Dear For the next few months and possibly longer rural home owners are going to experience the continued annoyance of near indestructabie campaign signs blowing across their property As a campaign worker I as those who supported others have been out trying to collect these signs from where we originally placed them During the days the vote many signs were vandaliz ed removed and discarded It is impossible for workers to pick them up if they do not know where the signs are Some of these are easy to locate For instance today I found a pile of signs from across Hills and Milton dumped on the Third Line just south of Ac ton Most of the missing signs however appear to have been thrown in ditches and over fences K Acton Guelph memorabilia To the Editor
