They held one of the three meetings which took place sim- ultaneously in Thornhill Tues- day night, November 17. Each Thornhill trustee on the York County Board of Edu- cation represents 8,333 people, while a North York trustee a- gain represents about 42,500 people. In North York each council- lor represents 42,500 people, says Dr. Fotheringham. Dr. Fotheringham says he feels the citizens’ next greatest reason for concern involves lo- cal government representation. In Thornhill every 5,500 peo- ple will have an elected repre- sentative on the 1971 Markham Tovm Council. They fear market Value re-as- sessment in North York; will increase the tax difference evâ€" en more, making completely un~ economic the low density style of living widely enjoyed; in Thornliill. Their studies have shown North York taxes varying from 18% to 70% higher than in the Thornhill area of Markham. And Markham lhas already been re-assessed at market val- ue while North York has not. They have concluded that an- nexation would mean an aver- age residential property tax hike of 44%.

Thornhill In Mood To Fight Metro Grab' Continued from Page 1) minister and circulate petitions door-toâ€"door. DMINU -VENTI Markham Regional Council- lor-elect James Jongeneel, who travelled around to all four meetings, told the citizens, “Now is the time to act if you don't like annexation". “If you don't take action now, in a year's time you may find yourselves in Metro and then it‘ll be too late to do any- thing but cry about it. Vaughan School Trustee Ross Jolliffe said the Metro boundary ‘should stay at Steeles Avenue, or else go to the height of land and drainage divide at Oak Ridges, north of Richmond Hill. NEW METRO BOROUGH Moving the Metro line to Oak Ridges would allow formation of a new Metro borough, separate from North York, and make it possible for the 10cal community to keep its character and iden- tity,†said Trustee Jolliffe. “The real question is whether or not we’re going to have a city state, a province of Toronto, like New York of Los Angeles. “What really cuts the mustard with Queen's Park is lots of let- ters, petitions and delegations," said Mr. Jolliffee. “I can‘t sqe any man-made boundary as being any better than another. Highway 407 would have no advantage over Steeles Avenue. “It is a political question of where Metro is to stop. Other- wise it will just keep getting bigger and bigger. “The government has been treating the whole situation to date in a very cavalier fashion," he continued. “Youth gets the impression today that govern- ments don't care. They just draw lines and use people as pawns." He admitted that hydro is presently slightly more expen- sive in Thornhill than in North York. but he said it looked like the Thornhill rates were going to get comparatively better. 44% TAX HIKE Mr. Adams said making a comparison of North York and Thornhill taxes were very com- plicated, but it appeared they were an average of 44% higher in North York. “We now have certain advan- tages I like. and I would like to keep them". said Mr. Jong- eneel, thanking the voters for his recent re-election. Markham Councillor-elect Bob Adams said that when cam- paigning Tecently, he had dis- covered an overwhelming feel- ing that people wanted to stay out of Metro. “There is definitely a com- munity feeling here.

When it came time for the North Thornhill people to vote, all but two were opposed to an- nexation. There were seven ab- stentions. The ratepayers agreed to pre- pare a petition against annexa- tion and there were 20 residents who volunteered to take the pet~ ition door-to-door.
