We under- tadthat representatives of this Association have receùýtiy met with you. ta briÉg to your notice certain grievances which' no doubt in due course will be con- sidered by the, Ontario Municipal Board. We recentiy appiied for mem- bership ini the Ratepayers Asso- ciation and were informed that under Part 1-A of its constitu- tion none but residents of the Township of Carke are eligible for membership. The Association therefore is not a 'Ratepayers' As Association but a 'Residents" As- sociation and its representing it- self as a Ratepayers Association- is a misnomer at best and at worst could be construed as an attempt to mislead your Department iln- to assuming that the Association represents the interests of al ratepayers in the Township. ,We bring these circumstances to your notice so that we may be ;iven an opportunity to be heard When the Ratepayers' submaission is being considered by your De- partment. Your very truiy, BËecas Deveiopments Liited Peter Caspari, President. Or ono VOLUME 31, NUMBER 33 Times ORONO WEEKLY TIMES, THURSDAY, AUGUST 29th, 1968 Neil Aluin Granted W.
