For a second straight year a Huron
East ward has been ousted from the
position of lowest tax rate in Huron
County.
For years, various combinations of
Huron East’s three rural wards,
Grey, McKillop and Tuckersmith,
had ruled the county in the war of
low taxes. However, after being
dethroned by all three of Ashfield-
Colborne-Wawanosh’s wards lastyear, Huron East’s three rural wardsremain at fourth, fifth and sixth
place.
In a report presented to council by
Treasurer Paula Michiels at
council’s Aug. 13 meeting.
Ashfield, Colborne and Wawanosh
wards are tied for the lowest taxes in
Huron County, all carrying the same
tax rate. McKillop is in fourth place,
followed by Grey and then
Tuckersmith.
Brussels is 14th on the list withSeaforth coming in slightly higher,in 16th place.
In Michiels’ report, however, she
said that the difference between the
three Ashfield-Colborne-Wawanosh
(ACW) wards, and Huron East’s
lowest ward, McKillop, was just
over $20 on a $100,000 residential
assessment.
The list is as follows, listed from
the ward with the lowest tax rate to
the one with the highest:
