Publisher: A well researched and thought-out letter. Celia is the wife of Michael Newman, former councillor and publisher of the Oliver Chronicle.

I have read the letter carefully and will likely write a response by the end of the day.

ODN apologizes for the look of the letter – it could not be taken as a document from council agenda material so it was seized as a series of photographs. Not one word has been changed.

Council may “rise and report” Monday on in-camera discussions as there was a chance that councillors might change or modify a decision made last year prior to the civic election which was designed to limit traditional participation in Town business by representatives of the rural area.
