COntan, News-Record Thursday, Nov,. $,1900 Appeal on Assessments Successful, Corner Lot Owners Get Decision (Continued From Page One) a boulevard, He said there was no possible ehance of selling land ,end no chance of ever making a connection with the sewer on the side of their lot, Mr, Campbell claimed that "this local improvement idea is • for the birds". He could not see why just because mistakes were made 14 years ago, that he should be paying for it now, "Why couldn't the town, in- stead of picking on individuals, put this on the taxes? Then the whole town would pay for extensions which 14 years ago were passed over." Mayor Bridle said, "You are asking us to do something that is !against the law, and we could go to jail if we did it." Mr. German noted that "We- 've all helped pay for this sew-. erage, and for vacant lots. I agree with Bob. Why pick out a few and try to set a heavy tax on us?" Jim Grabam, said he InieW nothing until his bill came He had eigned no petition; had no use for /the sewer, "No one used the press 'to tell anyone whet was going on. The least a governing body could do is to let us know what was going on. it is very unfair." Mayor Bridle explained that since this was the town's first venture in local improvement installations, they had not been aware that corner lots would be assessed in this way. Engineer Ross stated that the Local Improvement Aot is a good act, but the change from the general funds set-up to local improvements pay- ments is ;the rub. He explained that the town paid 15 percent of the total cost of these ex- tensions first, .and for all Work on intersections, Mr, Campbell said, "The best local improvement the town could make is to remove that Ideal for Christmas! a grand new world of music at your fingertips Anyone in your family can play rich, full-toned organ music . . . at sight!

Bridge were et their former home few days last week. Douglas Stirling spent the Weekend in Arnheretburg visit- ing his brother-in-law and sis- ter, Mr. and Mrs; Lewis Bailey and family., His mother who has been visiting in Toronto and Arrihersbura for the past three weeks returned home with him on Monday. Earl Switzer who suffered a stroke last Sunday has im- proved, slaughter house from behind us." Both Mr. Kuiper and Mr, German felt they should have been allowed to pay cash. When debentured over twenty years, the total cost will just about double. Mr, Campbell posed the sug- gestion that "This practice will deter •any future expansion. We're not hanging out a wel- come mat. We are slam-Ming a door. There is no incentive for industrialists to come to our town". Clerk J. Livermore stated that in cities subdividers pay for all services, Mr. Campbell asked about Mr. Winiter's sub- division. Mr. Livermore agreed that he would be responsible. Miss' Dirrnin, representative of Clinton News-Record, asked why details were not published and was advised' that it was not necessary when the town acted on a petition for local improvement, only when the town initiated the construction. The court rtired for con- sultation on what action they would propose. While they were absent from the council chamber, the citizens called their own meeting, and al- though they felt they should not have to pay at all (Mr. Campbell said it was not Rus- sia, but the next thing to it), they did prepare 'a request for one week in which they could contact others involved, to ar- range for cash payment rather than over the next 15 years. When the court returned it was' ready to concede 100 feet on each corner lot in- stead of 66 feet. Then they decided to wipe off the entire flankage of each one. Upon hearing the request of the citizens for permission to pay cash the court granted their request for a week's ex- tension, and another meeting is planned for to-night. Those persons paying for sewerage under local improve- ment will receive a different sewerage bill from the PUC than other residents in town. While others pay twice the water rate, the local improve- ment areas pay only 1/2 times the water rate. This is be- cause the 1% times the water rate was geared to pay capital cost. The local improvement areas are paying their capital cost through the special de- benture levy (or by cash if it can be arranged). Clerk J. Livermore empha- sized that every member of all three projects must pay cash, or all would have to pay on debenture. Mayor H. Bridle assured the citizens at the end of the meet- ing that council has' tried to guard against situations simil- ar to this in the future. To get a building permit, persons must go to the Public Utilities Commission to get particulars 'of services available before they go to the building in- spector to get their permit ok'd'. Then if additional costs are involved they know be- fore they start. However, the court agreed that this did not 'safeguard the person at the time he buys' his land; nor the' innocent home- owner who must assist with the cost even though he is already served and does not need the new istallation.

The gang, believed by police to be in their late 'teens or early 20's, Saturday night shot two turkeys on the farm of Gys Vanderhaar. Mr. Vanderhaar, who raises turkeys and broiler chickens commercially, said' the same youths have been plaguing him for weeks, driving past his farm at night, blowing the car horn and frightening the birds. Mr Vanderhaar said that the frightened birds might easily smother each other in crowd- ing together. Mr. Vanderhaar lives on the Bayfield road' between the Middleton Church and the golf course. Police have checked several cars in the area in search et the shotgun which killed 'the two turkeys. The same gang is believed to be responsible for several raids on district apple orch- ards. 0 Homemakers Bowling League (By Dolly Kenny) A game scheduled for Thurs- day, October 21 was postponed until October 25 due to a band concert being held in the rec- reation centre.
