Again it should be pointed out that we are now using a per- centage of costs rather than the mill rate system." "Another factor that does not show up directly in'the budget,", the clerk continued, "is the fact there are rebates to the urban municipalities in connection with their highway levy, In other werds, 45 per cent of the highway levy for the urban municipal- ities is rebated to these mun- icipalities each year. For 1971 this will amount to approxlinately $122,000." "There is also one reServe, fund which does not appear this year in our budget," Mr. Berry • concluded, *-That is the Hospital Reserve 'where we have $5,000 invested. This the lt o f a previous planned program over ^the past years whereby we allo- cated funds to the Hospital Res- erve made payable to hospitals for building programs.
