Re: Ambulance Service in Port Perry I'agree in part, with the letter which appeared in your last is- sue about the ambulance service in Port Perry, I do agree that an ambulance service is a must in a com- munity" of this size. However, a privately cog gi is not necessarily the_apswer. I believe the answer may lie in a Community Ambulance, completely equipped and paid for by Port Perry, Twp. of Scu- gog; Twp. of Reach and Twp. the Port Perry "Fire 'Brigade, who I understand, are trained in First Aid. I would like to see a joint Council Meeting of the area, and explore the possibilities of a community service, and if this 'is not possible, to set up a single central system for emer- gencies, ' ' Yours very truly, "Walter E.

Dear Sir: Re: Ambulance Service Owing to the recent publicity over the ambulance service in our municipalities, the Reeves of the Townships of Cartwright, Scugog, Reach and the Village of Port Perry wish to advise you as follows: On January 3rd, 1966, a Totter "was received from Brignall's Port Perry ambulance service advising that unless the subsidy ' of $1200 per year was raised to i $4150 per year, and it was so advised by January 17th, 1966, no ambulance service could be guaranteed. At a meeting of the Reeves and representative Councillors of the four municipalities held | unanimously | crease. over | present of Cartwright, and manned by | | Letter To The Editor February 3rd, 1966 were ar- ranged and we were guaranteed prompt and efficient service. All money under our control is raised from taxes and an in- crease in subsidy means an in- crease in taxes. We believe that: 1. Persons requiring service should pay for it where possible. 2. Charges for service should be sufficient to cover the service. - 3. A subsidy paid by the rate- payers should cover only charges that cannot be re- covered from the user of thy ' service and a reasonable stand by charge. 4, At no time have we ever re- ceived a statement showing charges msde : are uncollect- able. 5. Any ambulance owner: who receives a subsidy, must sub- mit a financial report at the end of the year to each. municipality involved. It is not our desire mor our intention to enter into a debate through the press concerning this matter and the sole purpose of this letter is to adyise you and the ratepayers of our muni- cipalities of the facts. There is efficient ambulance service in our municipalities as advertised. Signed: J. J. Gibson, Reeve of Port Perry # Edward Oyler, Reeve of Reach Twp. Vietor Aldred, Reeve of Scugog Twp.
