stouffvillesuntribunem thursday nov 232006 5 1 part of nonvoting 61 you should t mark follow he elections over and the dust has settled as one of 7628 souls who cared enough to an x my comments privilege cards whitchurchstouffville had 19611 eligible voters gut of this number only 39 per cent exercised their franchise disgraceful in the next goaround i would suggest each and every person on registering should receive a numbered approval card in the four years to fol low he or she should be required to produce this affi davit before addressing meet ings of council then and only then would people be more inclined to appreciate a privilege so few currently acknowledge computer era since the powers that be who improvise the election act will in all likelihood not incorporate the above i believe the time is fast approaching when most peo ple will vote via the internet in durham region mail- in ballots were introduced for a first time with considerable success the computer is a next step the system could prove so convenient comfortprone couch potatoes might exceed 50percent participation back to normal a tipofthe hat to all 23 whitchurchstouffville can didates almost all election signs that tarnished bur towns landscape were removed in short order green boulevard grass is again visible perhaps threats of fines prompted faster action a lot to learn why i ask would any mayoralty candidate consid er himselfherself such an authority on municipal law that heshe would endeavour to start at the top to my way of thinking there were only two legiti mate contenders for the chief magistrates post wayne emmerson and sue sherban the rest ran on fumes foreign field lets give credit where credit is due fred robbins a resident in ward 4 displays more interest in municipal politics than most taxpayers in town but why i ask would mr robbins pull up stakes in his ward and contest a seat in ward 1 not only was he entering the municipalitys hinterland but he was com peting against the best of the best roaming with jim thomas it must have been obvious even to him he didnt stand a chance justin who weve all heard of justin trudeau even justin timber- lake but justin alrmann this freshman candidate came out of the woodwork to sweep nine of 13 polls in ward 2 undoubtedly throw ing a scare into incumbent philbannon mr altmann garnered 903 votes to 1090 for mr bannon whatever his secret mr altmann obviously impressed a lot of people buildup slowdown mayorelect wayne emmerson has promised a slowdown in buildup over the next four years with his knowledge and experience he should know theres a committee waiting in the wings called the ontario municipal board wholl even tually make these decisions not council mr emmerson also admits he doesnt like the pro- posed plan for the old town hall neither do i accommo dation is inadequate and parking is at a premium bring on a bulldozer mayors for youth heres hoping mrs sherban continues to head up her youth foundation an excellent form of fundraising at the same time i trust mayorelect emmerson will reintroduce his program for youth an equally outstand ing fundraising program towering nameplate im not sure who deserves the credit but the whitchurchstouffville signa ture atop the bethesdaroad water tower is an advanta geous form of publicity either the painter was standing on 60foot stilts or used a paintbrush with an extended handle jim thomas is a stouf- fuille resident who has writ ten for area newspapers for more than 50 years stlifldpork these aire the dinner of choice for many we begin with
