LOW GAIN ---- -- -------- FOR EAST INPUT SAYS The only thing Oshawa has to offer residents of Northumberland and Durham is industrial tan shar- ing, says a citize'ns' committee o! United Counties residents who have prepared their own brie! on regional government. Citizens' Input, in its propoFai for a one-tier regional govern- me-.t for the United Counties, ex- plains why it does not feel there would be any benefit for portions of the two counties to be indud- ed in a regional government with Oshawa. 'Peope live in the United Counties because theyare plea- cd with the life style," says hI- put in its brie!, Project 2073. "It is entircly possible that a eonsid- erable number of United Coun- tics residents appear on "Oshawa traffic surveys . owever, the pturpose of their travel is net nec- essaniily noted, nor for that mat- ton, the fact that they may be going through.» IlWe consier these so-cailed afficities (clted by the province) to be, totally irrelevant," says the brie!. "'It therefore becomes obvious that the only posibe benefit Toronto's garbage in Hope To>wn- ship. 1The suggestion is made that Hope Township_ residents', mail thein posteards to Howard Quan-, trili, the township reeve or other members of the Hope Township Council. The H.O.P.E. group sug- gests that Port Hope residents mailthein letters to James Auld, Minister o! the Envlronmcnt or ta AlIex Carruthers M.P.P., Dur- haff. that Oshawa' can offer the United' Counties 'is the somewhat ques- tionable, matter of industrial tax sharbng," says the brie!. It goes on to question if this thought would. benefit the United Coun- tics. "WII this taie place before or after Oshawa pays off its multi- million dollar municipal debt,' questions the brie!.
