Georgetown Voters Set June 19 For New School Bond Issue
Georgetown property owners go to the polls June 19 to decide on issuing 190000 in debentures for a six room public school to ease overcrowding. Tax impact is said to be negligible as old waterworks and wartime housing payments end in 1952 and provincial aid will cover part of the debt. Voter eligibility includes property owners on the 1949 list and corporations can vote with written notice.
