<br />
<br />;.'ue~otions Are: ;~eed for doing this v~thout having it drag on.
<br />havb to bc able to contel this situation, i::~sey n~eds rnorc police
<br />protection ~d a larger %o~ hall. There are ~ide lines like crazy
<br />in c~ro~-~. They don't need more people to administer their government.
<br />:~umber one - do we need ~ cooperate? %;hat fo~ should this cooper-
<br />etlon take'~ Joint planning? Joint extension in se~iccs?
<br />it kc boun~ry alteration? A~e~ation, merger~ etc.? Met~politan
<br />Co~v~;~ission ~y act tn two years. There should be a definition of some
<br />kiud of alte~attves. E~ctly what %~.~ould incor?~ration do? If more
<br />services are roqutred~ focus on economy ~ t~payers. 'Why do we fee!
<br />the need for cooperation ~ong these three co~unities? Beco,~se none
<br />ofus want to get the sho~ end of the stick. ?Jhat do you haw~ that
<br />~.~c need to share? ~:l~tng that v,%ll ~ke the most economic ~itua-
<br />tion for the taxpayer. One thought is three cor~unities beinf~ se~ed
<br />by one fire ~d one ~lice department. L~o could have the dlg~mtcher
<br />in nnoka with one station in ~;~sey and one tn Gro~-~~, with help
<br />the other two if needed. The m~n thing we hear about now i2 police
<br />p~tection. There should be no more looking back, forget all the
<br />animoo Itios.
<br />
<br />Lhat ie the nrirm~ry objective? ~e are inte_esced in a ola~nod co,~
<br />~unit~. ',,ith inco~ration there **euld be state aid to reade, liquor
<br />revenue to hold v~th this pl~ned co.unity, in }iomsey ~-~ith our
<br />more!al areas and our indust~al park, we Feel we c~ make a ~:o of

<br />not have the colonial ~d indust~ial development, [iecause of not
<br />being incorporated they ~ss out on ~:65~Q00 in l~ad f~nds arid
<br />venue sl:mrin~, If they c'~'t integrate they ~ay have to me:rf~:o with
<br />someone. They have the ~000 people they need to got th~ ~'~-~
<br />but not lthc eo~e~c~ ~d ~ndaatrial, Thez c~"t really build a
<br />· police or tiro department, There ~s a tantast~c a~oun~ o~ crSm~.~
