ORONP WENKLY TIM Municipal enumerating to start in September Provincial enumerators will visit all households in Ontario during September to conduct the annual Municipal enumeration, Revenue Min- ister Arthur Meen said today. "Annual municipal enum- eration is quite different from the enumerations conducted in preparation for federal and provincial elections," Mr. Meen explained "Special voters' lists are required since eligibility to vote is different at the municipal level." The right to vote in federal and provincial elections is based upon citizenship, age and residency. The right to vote in a municipal election is more extensive since it allows a non-resident who is at least 18 years old and a Canadian Citizen or British subject to vote, if that person owns or rents property in the muni cipality. The spouse of such a non-resident is also entitled to vote in that municipality. "However, Mr. Meen point- ed out, "we require more data than voter eligibility. The enumerators must record the formation names, ages, property status poses me (either owner or tenant) and in s publie or separate school purpose support and residency of al elections. members of each household."
