in the south and east areas of towns annexed two years ago from Whitchurch Township are paying more for their hydro than are residents of I market This is unfair The reason they are paying more is that still have to buy their power from Ontario Hydros rural retail system although they have been part of the town of Newmarket for almost two years The legislation creating the Region of York ind boundaries by last January When nothing had been done by February the Newmarket Hydro Commission made an ap plication to take over the service in the areas annexed to the town Still nothing has been

feci free send yours All we ask is that you include your name and address Places his hope Getting a tax in Sutton may be a problem some people but days ago residents of the village that travel by cab knew what it was like to wait up to an hour and a half for a taxi happened during a five day span when I South Shore Taxi was closed down and only two taxis were operating But aside from the inconvenience that shut down caused there was a positive side that I hope members of Council take note of The two taxis that did operate were busy just about all the time a different situation than is normal in Sutton There are six taxis licenced for the village ir to South Shore Taxi and one each to Dud Joblin ami Vic who arc partners in Sutton Taxi From my point of view there are plainly too many cabs in the village Now when taxi policy was developed months ago it was decided to have one cab per population The census at the lime was and thus nine cab licences were issued for the township as a whole That was fewer cabs say than Toronto which has one cob per population And so the taxi bylaw was passed allocating taxis on the basis of population Presently there ore six cabs in Sutton and three in Keswick yet Keswick lias a much larg er population than Sutton That is a very strange situation to say the least and one that I find hard lo understand It shows thai llio use of raw population fig without regard to population distribution Is very dangerous The figure of one call for people is not necessarily Georgina it is merely Incomplete Accord in to None of the six cabs i
