Support your school board in‘ their effort to reduce school building costs and taxes in your area". he said.

A township should have a sense of responsibility to taxpayers of long standing. “A portion of lot fees collect- ed from the potential inhabi- tants would be his contribution to the building of additional necessary classrooms or schools.) This is not a radical practise. Other enterprising municipali- ties have used this method of defraying the cost of educa- tion.“ ' Mr. Patterson said the letters were opinions from opposite sides of the township. and in between is school area No. 2, where the taxpayers will lose over $62,000 in the next twenty years, and most of that in the next five years, because lot fees amounting to $25,000 have been diverted for purposes other than capital school costs. Reference was made to (he proposed subdivision at Union" ville. Mr. Patterson gave subs- tantial evidence ratepayers at Unionville and those who will become ratepayers. will be mortgaged beyond endurancel unless the lot fees are used for required school facililies. Use of lot fees could provide a school without debt and main- tain a much lower tax rate for many years to come. At the close of the mectin it was announced that r.

Richmond Hill‘s 1963 Voters' List is off the press and was posted up in the office of Clerk Russell Lyn- ett on November 9. All residents of the town who are eligible to vote should check the list to see that their names are included in the next two weeks. Copies of the list of vot- ers may be seen at the municipal offices and a copy is pasted up at Rich- mond Hill Post Office and at each of the schools in the municipality. Last year a number of residents found on arriving at the polls that their names were not on the offi- cial list. They were. able to secure a certificate from the clerk which permitted them to vote, but this caus- ed a lot of confusion and last-minute rush. This could have been prevented had those pe0ple taken a few minutes earlier to check the list.
