Chos- en to head Heritage Park rate- payers were Burt Wyer. Mrs. Dora Tansley and on the commit- tee John Moore. For months one or ‘wo or half a dozen Heritage Park residents have attended village trustees‘ meetings as actively interested individuals. but not as an organ- ized ratepayers‘ body. With many_of the occupants of the 38 houses in the cen‘ral sub- division away during summer, the organizing committe looks to September to bringing more home owners together for mut- ua: benefit. Roads and culverts have long been the main concern in Herit- age Park. At a race“? trustees‘ meeting a delegation was asking about street lighting and was as- SU‘ed by trustees the llghts, pos- sibly three. would be installed. Now the ratepayers want to dlseuss whether the lights are taxable as a local improvement and whether the majority favour having them.

If we are not going t; incorporate don't for it 10 or 15 years." Trustees chairman D o n a 1 d Findlay said he guessed King City, as a police village. would soon cost more to operate than if it were incorporated because administrative help would be needed shortly to relieve the work now carried by the trustees. One ratepayer mentioned he had never seen the petition dir- ected to the municipal board.
