with provincial grants although the con ditional grants he announced were designed to offset the tax impact of the cumbersome regional government imposed on york county last year the method of granting them showed that queens park intends to assume full control of municipal operations locally elected officials are becoming mere in termediaries between the public and queens park they are being blamed for inef ficiencies and higher costs of local govern ment but are deprived of the authority and the resources to make improvements they consider necessary the cause the trend to big bureaucracy in education and local government began when the public believed this would provide greater uniformity in quality and greater efficiency than the former small units it sounded sensible to eliminate all the little units of volunteers because so many lacked the background and ex pertise required to meet modern day demands it was believed that the big new structures would be the best solution because then our educational system and municipal government could be run by experts for this reason the local school sections and municipal school boards were thrown aside in 1968 and local municipal councils have been placed in stronger straight jackets both con trolled by means of county school boards and in many cases regional government structures designed to make them puppets of queens park bureaucracy true local autonomy is now a thing of the past the democratic way to better government the way queens park should have brought about the much needed im provement in our old educational and local government structures was to have analyzed the problems a major problem was the poor system of grants which placed and still places the major burden for services for people including education on the property taxpayer this could have been corrected by un- plan fall meetings in buttonville area by jean leaf buttonville it is difficult to believe that the summer season is

the right to decide how to provide for their local needs a second major problem was lack of public knowledge about now their local school boards ad councils were managing in com parison with others in my view the province should have developed continuing improved techniques which would inform the public of such im portant facts the third problem was unavailability of expertise provided free of charge to local authorities when the latter so requested if experts were made available in this way they would be serving local people rather than making decisions for them and local elected represen tatives would still be responsible for the performance achieved by local government the public would then be in a position to know when improvement through a change in local representatives was warranted unfortunately in education in assessment in welfare in health and in most other fields of a truly local nature the people have lost control to the bureaucratic experts business tried the big structure route a generation or more ago however suc cessful modern businesses have since learned the value of local interest and autonomy in winning the support of the public it is time queens park
