Ral ph Etienne A~oka ,;'[inn. ])ear J:~r.Etienne; T~ank you for your check of ~40..00 for membership in our ~SStI1. We are very happy to have some To.ms in the Metro Area as mem- bers.~e have had meetings in Amoka,Washington and Sherburne co~znties bmt it seems that at that time we could not interest the Town officers to organize. [i',!ow, since the passing of the ~egional Developement Act~we have ~he s~me problems that you have for some time. I assume you received my letter of Peb.so it's necessary for me to repeat what Z wrote in it. ',.e ~gree with a few of the things provided for in the Act. ]]owever 'Ue are opposed to the power given to the Cormc:ission; The power of' taxation,to change the bounderies of School dis- ~-~r~c~,,' o,Tovms in fact almost all Local ~over~ments smd are very muzn concerned about having only one Tovm officer on t~e dis- trict board,one out of amembership of thirty five or forty. most of the rural counties the Towns have a, larger popula- tion than the rest of the county and also have higher w_~lua- tions. welco::~e more of the Towns in the ]'fetro area as members. Thank you again. Sincerely Yours rumlm e r Ass'n Rep
