President’s Message
A generally cooler
and wetter summer has come to
an end. Let’s
hope we have a
warm, pleasant
fall. At the July
19 Annual General Meeting you
elected a new board who are trying
to continue the great work put forth
by retiring board members. We owe
a debt of gratitude to Edith Galloway, Judy Belbeck, Marilyn Chapman, and David Chapman whose
efforts over the past two years have
contributed to the success of our
Association.
With more than 60 members attending, the August 24th Pot Luck at
Centennial Park was a great success.
Photos are on the website for those
who weren’t able to attend. We are
in the early stages of planning a
spring event.
Sue Crutcher has done a remarkable
job revamping our website
www.islandviewratepayers.com to
improve functionality and utility of
the website for our members. Have
a look at the site and revisit often to
keep abreast of issues in the community.
Lastly, please remember to exercise
the franchise by voting in the Georgian Bluffs municipal election. The
next Council will face a number of
issues that are near and dear to our
hearts — the Kemble Heritage
Roads, Wiarton-Keppel Airport; the
Bio-digester, off-loading of county
roads to the municipality — to name
just a few. Make your voice heard.
ELECTION: October 27
ALL BALLOTS WILL BE MAILED. There will be no polling booths for the Georgian
Bluffs municipal election. Ballots are to be sent to qualified electors by Canada Post between
September 30 and October 3. Once completed, ballots may be returned to the Georgian Bluffs
municipal offices by using the postage paid return envelope or by depositing ballots at the
municipal offices by 8:00 pm October 27. If returned using Canada Post, ballots must be placed
in the mail by October 18 to ensure receipt at the municipal offices by October 27.
