Tam Edwerds has been connectod with Town council since.1964, Jas Drumm aine 1977, Rase Batten ine 1980, Marcel Bruipello ine 1983, Donnis Fau ince 1988, and Don Mitchell-and Judi Longfield ince 1991.

As same- people have suggested, ail local'taxpayers have assisted financially ta erect smre nice officiai buildings on Rassland, Rd. With a littie mare imagination than was put inta the Belleville proposai, we are confident a trul~ dedicated council can accomphls satisfactory resuits -. without Ieaving Whitby.
