" A brief sent to Queens Park by Scugog council "contains the same recom- mendations which were submitted by the other councils, as reported in previous editions of the Port Perry Star. All four councils agree that the new. town should be named Scugog and be administered by a 9 member council elected on a ward system. they all want that part of Mariposa Township which comes south of the Nonquon River to be included in our new town. All believe that the county building in Whitby will be the best place for the region place, that the Ontario 'Provincial Police should continue to serve the area and that summer cottagers should be included in population figures for per capita grant purposes. The Scugog brief also calls for a September election. It suggests that 'Beverton, b Cannington and Brock join Uxbridge to form a new town in that area. However, Scugog council has gone one step further thgn its neighbours by recommending that councillors in the new town be only part time workers. There has been some controversy over the poss- ibility of an extra work load resulting in the need for full time councillors, and an extra salary cost that may be involved in such a case. "To create a system that would demand full time participation,"" the brief said" would too greatly restrict the number of good capable people that would make themselves available for election." The Scugog brief began with a number of comments on the idea of regionalism in general. We quote those opening remarks, word for word, as they appear in the Scugog brief. "After considerable deli- beration and careful study of the "Proposal for Local Government Reform in an Area East of Metro" the Council of the Township of Scugog respectfully presents the following comments for your consideration and hopefully for your approval. It has become increasingly apparent in the past few years that the area east cf Metro will soon be exper- iencing the extreme pres- sures of drastic increases in population. The advent of the installation of an Internat ional AirpgeA in the Pic kering aréa will not he the only cause of this increase in population, it will serve to accelerate the problem. We in the rural portion of this areca are not looking forward to this influx of people as you may well imagine. We feel we have enjoyed the quiet solitude and peaceful living of one of the nicest areas in the province. We have all the advantages of an agricul- tural and recreational set- ting as well as those of the industrial and commercial world of Oshawa - Toronto within easy commuting distance.
