It was because of my profession that I was not welcome. We (the me- dia) were asked to leave the room where the meeting between The Ministries of Municipal Affairs and Housing, Revenue, --_ Education, Northern Affairs, and the Municipalities of Marathon, Manitouw- adge, Schreiber and Terrace Bay, and The Lake Superior Board of Education was to take place. It seemed incredible that all of those people were there and about to consider the unfair situ- ation of Hemlo em- ployees being supplied with services paid for by taxpayers in the four municipalities with the Hemlo companies not price of gas is too high. cial aid, campus tours and cost. . i Roy Handy: It is too cold in Terrace Bay and Schreiber and the consideration. - THE CORPORATION OF THE TOWNSHIP OF TERRACE BAY a Za ce.

People in the area are very con- cerned about the prob- lem but those who could keep them informed were turned away by a representative of the Rossport Inn licensed dining and accommodations serving breakfast lunch & dinner 824-3213 Reservation Requested What's the Big Secret? Ministry of Municipal Affairs and Housing. He stated that it was an "exploratory meeting and no decisions would be made." So, why the big secret behind closed doors? Fortunately the Reev- es and Board of Educa- tion were willing to co- operate after the meet- ing so the public could be made aware of some of the facts. Perhaps the minis- tries did not want you to know that the Minis- try of Revenue had been approached by Reeve Speer just less than two years ago on the sub- ject of equalized assess- ment and the Board of .Education sent them a resolution regarding the same matter in June of this year and nothing has been done. Regarding equalized assessment of _ resi- dential taxes, I was pleased to see that the - Board's latest resolu- tion requested a review of the distribution of in- dustrial and commer- cial taxes as well as residential since the ef- fect on the industries has not yet been deter- mined and they have al- ready been hit hard by the fact that the Hemlo is not taxed. The Board of Edu- cation is directly affect- ed by the situation and it was necessary for them to be represented by Marg Twomey and Mike Reid however I ques- tion the presence of Mr. Larry Urbanowski who, although he is a board trustee, is also in a management position with Noranda. Kim- berly-Clark and James River were not included in the meeting and they are greatly affected by the outcome as well. Why one and not the others? It is my hope that the situation. will be recti- fied, as Mike Reid said jokingly after the meet- ing, "in our lifetime." P.O.
