After writing up the records an apparent cash shortage of $3,808.65 was determined for this period. No budget was prepared as required by section 297 of the Municipal Act. As at December 31, 1965 there was anaccumulated Revenue Fund Surplus of $76,924.91. It is suggested that the Municipality provide out of this surplus a reserve for working capital and such other reserves as allowed by the regula- tions of the Department of Municipal Affairs. The tax rates should be adjusted to reduce the deferred revenue which is shown on schedule 8. A number of by-laws passed in 1965, August 1965 invoices and December 1965 debenture coupons redeemed could not be located. Payments should be made to the various Boards for their share of taxes collected under section 53 of the Assessment Act. There is no authority for the municipality to levy a different police village rate for commercial property as opposed to residential property. The difference in the rate should be reflected in the general Administrative rate charged to the inhabitants of the Police Villages. It is noted that the Commercial Police Village rate is greater than the statutory maximum of 15 mills. It is suggested that the Police Villages rates be adjusted to eliminate the large balances due to the Police Villages. When tests were made to the tax arrears ledger maintained by the Municipal- ity, several errors were discovered. Listings of taxes outstanding at December 31, 1965 have been forwarded to the clerk and it is suggested the tax arrears ledger be brought into agreement with the listings.
