VILLAGE of GRAND BEND AUDITOR'S REPORT
To the Council and Ratepayers
of the Municipal Corporation
of the Village of Grand Bend
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have examined the books and records of the Village of
Grand Bend, the Public Utilities Commission (Hydro) and the
Water Supply System for the year ended December 31, 1970
and wish to report as follows.
Capital Fund
Capital expenditures for the year were $57,346.14. These
were financed by provincial subsidy and contributions from
general revenues.
Current Fund
Expenditure for the year exceeded revenues by
$84,312.94 which was partly offset by the surplus brought
forward from 1969. The deficit for the year was $8,201.99
which amount must be levied in 1971.
Outstanding taxes at December 31, 1970 increased to
$76,640.45. The collection of taxes continues to worsen.
Considerable effort is required to reduce these delinquent taxes,
some of which extend back to 1964. Tax sale proceedings
should be commenced against any lands liable and other arrears
should be returned to the County for collection.
Public Utilities Commission
Surplus for the year ended December 31, 1970 was
$493.62. The debenture principal was reduced by $5,344.13 in
the year.
