TELEPHONE 623-3379
It is respectfully recommended that this report be received
for consideration.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
At the General Purpose and Administration Committee meeting of
September 13th, 1982, Councillor Woodyard rose on a point of privilege and
brought forward the following resolution which was supported by the
committee:
"THAT the CAi ttee support Councillor Woodyard, bringing
to the attention of the local M.P.P., that someone
representing himself at the Government Research Centre is
making annoying 'phone calls to citizens in the Town".
It has been reported that there have been several telephone
calls requesting the citizens' opinions of Councillors and the Mayor.
I would recommend that Council advise Mr. Cureatz that
should he receive a formal complaint from a citizen with respect to such
inquiries, that Council support his investigation of the complaint with
the Ministry of Consumer and Commercial Relations, to determine:
1. Is this survey being conducted or supported by an agency
of the Government of Ontario, and if not, under what
authority is it being carried out.
2. Is this survey being financed in whole or in part by the
Province of Ontario, and if not, how is it being supported.
I would further recommend that Council offer its co-operation
in whatever manner required and that Mr. Cureatz advise Council of his
findings.
Respectfully submitted,
GARNET B. RICKARD
Mayor
