After reading about the case, Reeve Chapman and the rest of Council decid- ed to take some sort of ac- tion to prevent the local school boards from using the court decision to collect such funds. A resolution was then prepared, and was resd for the first time at the June 9 meeting of Council. bers of the band who are residents of Terrace Bay and Schreiber.

"If we pay the school board a tax requisition in March but actually collect the taxes in April, any penalties or interest are the property of the school board," he explained. "'The judge in the case was saying the municipal- ity is a trustee and agreed with the school board," he added.

Simons said Council's resolution is really a re- quest to the provincial government to "short cir- cuit this whole case" with an amendment to the Ed- ucation Act. The London case is now under appeal. He also pointed out the municipality has to give such money to the boards, whether it is collected or not. '*They can't have it both ways," Councillor George Ramsay said. He agreed that if the resolution is also passed later this week by the Thunder Bay District Municipal League at its meeting in Schreiber that it should also be sent to the Association of Ontario Municipalities (AMO) for approval as well. The resolution was then put to a vote and it was passed unanimously. The motion points out that municipalities are al- ready required under the Education Act to pay over to the school board a fixed portion of the board's an- nual requisition, even if the privacy is great. on the main floor.
