plunlcelt report warden bill coulter came out tmequlvocably for support of the plunkett report in a talk to those attending an urbanrural night at a meeting of tbe acton rotary club last week mr coulter youngest warden in the province and the youngest ever in halton said in his opin ion the plunkett reports recom mendations were the only solu tion to regional government in hamon he told the 25 rotarians and their farmer guests the high ly urbanised areas of the county were able to go it alone but the semiurban and rural areas would have to stick together to achieve equality of opportunity i hate to be a separatist said mr coulter but it is the only way i can see to develop a tax base i agree with plunkett because of his attitude toward the rural northern areas the warden stat ed warden coulter outlined the duties of the committees at coun ty council and told the meeting it was hard for an ordinary per son to grasp the complexities of the grant structure of the prov ince legislation over the years has made an intricate system of providing grants to county bod ies he emphasised the govern ment was looking for new con cepts for a better area of serv ice he compared the situation in the south of the county to that in the north using burlington as an example he said the amalgar nation of highly urbanized anafs rural areas doesnt work ouv tbe northern areas only have re presentatives on council the majority of people in burlington will tell you the amalgamation is working out but dont talk to peo ple in the northern areas they will tell you they are paying for the highly urbanized core inoak- vllle or burlington mr coulter said rural areas were more concerned with roads and education any other serv ices are provided by themselves the evaluation of the high rise has made the problem complex in urban areas they have to be provided with services the warden told how the two large southern areas had turned down proposals for a county wel fare system and a county board of education frustrating northern representatives the two towns have 85 per cent of the popula tion and pay 80 per cent of the assessment ah things say the highly ur banised areas can look after themselyes but the smauer com munities and rural areas must go alone rotarlan mac sprowl introduc ed the speaker and he was thank ed by bui pendleton vicepresident gary dawkins presided for
