I have examined the 1970 financial statements of the Corporation of the Township of Stephen and its local boards, which are listed on the attached Index. My examination included a general review of the accounting procedures and such tests of accounting records and other supporting evidence as I considered necessary in the circumstances. The bank loan at December 31, 1970 is in excess of the maximum allowable under section 329 of the Municipal Act. In my opinion these financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Corporation of the Township of Stephen and its local boards as at December 31st, 1970, and the results of their operations for the year then ended, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted for Ontario municipalities applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.
