«@ LETTE Dear Sir: Inreading from your paper of April 12th, 1972 regarding the liquor vote in Reach Township I quote 'Reach beer parlour vote from the "ballot because of objeetions raised by some ratepayers in the Township." Born in Canada and under possibly the false impression we are living in a democratic country, I never cease to be amazedthatafew individuals canexertpressureandhaveit accepted by a Council that is supposed to represent all of the ratepayers of Reach Township, being elected by the majority of voters. * Although I am undecided whether I am "For" or "against" beer parlours; Iam "for" majority rule, and '"against" minority Therefore, I feel that the questionshouldhavebeenleft to all the people of Reach to decide instead of being dictated to by a minortity rule. - Some F "Council decided to delete-the ---- --- ITOR group that prevented us from making our own decision.

Taylor, Administrative Assistant amalgamation (continued residents would not pay for servicestheydon'thave, such as water and sewer. Whenasked why taxes have invariably gone up with the formation of regional governments in other areas (York; Ottawa-Carleton; and Niagara) Mr. Church said that the structure of regional government expensive, butratheritis how operations within the region are carried out that can totake on ambitious spending programmes for increased and better serviceds, taxes are bound to go up, which he said has initially been the case in the other regions. To help defray initial itself is not expenditures involved with. the formation of a regional system, the provincial gov- ernment prov ides a grant of about $7 per person, During the meeting 'which lasted about an hour and a half, Mr. Church repeatedly expressed that the three municipalities should be dis- cussing the move toward amalgamation before the creation of an overall regional system. He said his department would assist in providing information, tech- nical data, and give any advice when asked for it. At the close of the meeting, council members from the three municipalities agreed to study information in a comparative analysis report made by the DMA, and another amalgamation ---meeting-will be held within the next four weeks. _ Reach Reeve Sam Oyler said after the meeting that amalgamation is enevitable withtheformation of regional government. He did express concern however that amal- gamation before regional government would leave the three municipalities with less votes in County Council than they have now. Presently, the . three municipalities have a .combined total of sevene County Council votes: Reach 3, Port Perry and Scugog 2 each based on population figures.
