Lotter to the Editor

Dear Sir:

On Apri! 27, 1976, we
jattended a council meeting as
{ interested taxpayers to hear
{ council's stand on Castlegar'’s
} method of dog destruction.
i Although not a formal delega-

tion, we were given permission
i by council to comment on the
, subject, i

1 During the 83-minute dis-
} cussion, it became increasingly
} apparent that! certain council
i members were totally bored
and impatient with the citizens ,

Council Bored and Impatlent?

present, This was evident by
continual pencil tapping, loud
sighing, obvious clock-watch-
ing, paper shuffling, bored
yawning and eyeball rolling.

One council member was
not even courteous enough to
face us when addressed,

Is this all the respect we
rate for “electing and paying
these officers to deal with our

*elty problems?

We are very disillusioned.
