strips Acton council is concerned that when regional government does come to that dividing lines between municipalities do not run along the roads In a written acknowledgment of their meeting with Minister of Municipal Affairs they made it clear they preferred boundaries to run on half concession lot lines rather than along the concession Referring to one example SideroadCounctllor Greer said it would be ridiculous to have Georgetown running one half of and Acton running the other half It had been suggested the boundary between the Acton and Georgetown run along the Side road However another councillor demanded to know where tins would put the proposed new between the Fifth and Sixth Concessions The answer was that the lot lines would split the strip down the middle Several derogatory remarks about the strip drew a reply from Councillor Chapman presiding for Committee of the Whole Everyone is concerned about the drag strip he said but does anyone know cars involved in

asked earlier whether the government was listening to the big shots in Peel or here He wondered what the rest of Peel would have voted if had vetoed a Peel deal Halton went along with a Peel Halton
