of Jan. 6. I feel that someone should inform MT Nauska that not all taxpayers agree with him. To begin with. last year a petition was circula ed against the proposed boat tax Mir Nauska was a signer Said petition is still on file at the City Hall. At that time, the City Council and the harbor committee were attemp ing to. alleviate a bad situation. namely, replacement of logs under the sinking floats, new gridirOn and the hiring of harbor master, so you CT none of the other pedestrians who use the floats would be in danger of slipping or falling on ice or snow.
 The proper officials you mention are the harbor committee, appoint ed by the M1yor. l, myself have seen these men at various times on the city floats and I am sure they are aware of conditions and have made suggestions from time to time about repairs and upkeep of the city floats.
 In regards to further nction. if necessary, my suggestion is a little effort on your part might induce others. Tn past years we used 10 help shovel snow off the float and l might add, we didn't gripe about' it. Another thing. searching the re- cords at the City Hall. 1 fail to find your name on the tax rolls. You are not a registered voter here nor do you purchase any of the public utilities. Your water is free at the dock and your garbage you can throw in the bay yet you are suggesting that taxpayers do some ing about it. Mny I suggest you carry your load in this community before you do any hollering. I am a taxpayer and also a boat owner. be1ides being a citizen who votes We like to live in a harmonious community without having some one stir up trouble who has no in- terest other than a boat

ten years ago md has never been used for that purpose.
 Some people might think that the regular city equipment should be adequa for fighting fire on the city floats. and il is adequate, but the only thing is it can not be put into action quick enough. From where the fire trucks must stop by the shrimp eannery it is some roo feet o the end of the float, and it is quite impossible for the firemen to get those halvy chemical con tainers there ill time to stop gas or oil fire.
 I have been told by many people that the City put fire fighting equipment on the float and it was stolen. That is not entirely true. There may have been some stolen but if it was put on the city street the way it was put on the float it would also be stolen. l can remem- bel@ some containers that were emptied and sat there until they USteu liIouSH dIlu were hlCheu overheard. The plain fact is there was never enough equipment nor was put in the proper structures
 The turth, Lew, is that is one reason we put that petition before the City Council. The other one is we did not know boat tax was to be for the purpose of keepingl proper maintenance on the city floats. If we had been told that am quite sure there would have been no petition put before the Council.
 This splitting back and forth like angry cats is not good form of city government. Any time the council wishes to meet with mem bers of the fishing fleet they will find us ready and willing to meet them half way.
