Norfolk County Council considered your draft by-

the Tillsonburg High School District and I report that they
were very much opposed to this action as they feel a pre-
cedent would be set and no advantage could be gained from
action on the grounds of cost.

Dear Mr. Thomson:
Your letter of January 24th, 1964 requesting
that a By-law be passed by The County of Oxford to
detach the Village of Vienna from the Tillsonburg
District High School Area and to add the same to
the East Elgin High School District was presented
to Oxford County Council last week at its January
Session.
The Oxford County Council received a letter
of protest and heard a personal presentation against
the proposed transfer, from the Board of the Till-
sonburg District High School Board.
Oxford County Council felt that the protest was
logical and just, and therefore, are taking no ac-
tion on passing a By-law tOe_approve the proposed
transfer
Yours very truly,
~~

Gentlemen: He: Village of. Vienna
The Tillsonburg District High School Board have duly moved, second'ed
and ca.rried the following resolution stating that they wish to lodge this formal
protest in wiÜting to you, in rela.tion to the Village of Vienna 1 s attempt to
transfer i.ts Secondary School students to the East Elgin District High School
Board, on the following grounds.
(a) A duplication of bus service in an area which is presently beins
adequately servfuèed by the TiHsonburg District High Schoòl Board.
(b) There is no advantage to the students to change faciliti.es si.nce
the educational systems in both areas are comparable.
(c) That the Village of Vienna asked to be taken into the Tillsonburg
District during the early stages of the formation of the
Tillsonburg High School DÜ;trict.
(d) The Tillsonburg District High School Board has built and provided
adequate school faciJj.ties to educate the Village of Vienna
students along with those of other !1unicipalities in i.ts District
and has raised debentures accordingly. The Village of Vienna 1 s
y¡ithdrmml will unduly burden and prejudice the remaining ì!unic-
ipalities in assuming the Village of Vienna's payments on the
said debenture.
(e) If the Village of Vienna is aJ.lowed to transfer, it will set a
dangerous precedent for other Hunicipalities to do the same, \
which would create a chaotic situation..
(f) The fact that the cost will be 10'[81' to transfer, presently,
does not necessarily mean this condition will be permanelilt.
(g) The Village of Vienna has enjoyed lower costs of education
over the past seven years in the Tillsonburg District.
(h) It ,,.ould appear that the l1,illage of Vienna 1 s presumption of
lower education costs is premature in that there has been no
official budget passed b3' the Tillsonburg District High School
Board for 1964
