GARRY GOODFELLOW auctioneer PHONE 293-3444 Dear Sir: Recent newspaper stories may have been misleading Tuckersmith Township Ratepayers. One quotation from Tuckersmith Reeve, Ervin Sillery was that “the tax rate is pretty well held to par as last year”. This may be true in total, but it is definitely not true for that portion of the tax rate which is the responsibility of the Township. This fact was kept from the public until the tax bills were received just recently. The tax bills show that the General Township Rate has increased by approximately 30 percent from 24 mills in 1977 to 31 mills in 1978. The total mill rate was held by a corresponding seven mill reduction in the county rate. The public school rates, both elementary and secondary have remained virtually unchanged from 1977. The fact that the Council appears to have attempted to hide the rate increase from : the ratepayers may now lead < them to question the reason ' for the increase which at 30 1 percent, is one of the largest ’ increases in the area. ] A much better policy ' would have been to have 1 publicized the increase at the 1 time the budget was set and to explain the need for the ; increase, which is probably i quite justified. At the same council 1 meeting, when the budget : was adopted, it was noted On taxes, cancer canvass that Tuckersmith council gave a “first time grant of $600.00 to the Vanastra Recreation Association”. This grant is small change in comparison to the interest on the nearly $80,000 of a deficit the township carries for the Vanastra Recreation Centre. At prime rate of 9Vd per­ cent, this would make a contribution of $7,400.00 by the township to the Recreation Centre every year, which nearly equals a two mill rate on all property in Tuckersmith. However, when Tucker­ smith Council was ap­ proached by the Tucker­ smith Federation of Agriculture, a group representing the single greatest source of tax revenue for the Township, with a request to have their grant reinstated from $600.00 to $900.00, this request was denied. Council did not even offer to increase the grant by the 30 percent which they in­ creased their charges to all Tuckersmith ratepayers. The $600.00 grant to the Tuckersmith Federation probably dates back to a time when the Township mill rate was in the area of 12-15 mills. Therefore, a comparable grant in 1978 should be in the area of $1,200.00 to $1,500.00 which would barely be keeping pace with the rate of inflation. It may be a possibility that Tuckersmith has increased their general municipal rate of seven mills which would raise slightly more than an additional $28,000.00 to start a program for the repayment of the Vanastra Recreation Centre Deficit. If this is true, Council should be willing to tell their elec­ torate. Yours truly, James I. McIntosh ☆ ☆ ☆ Dear Editor; The Huron County Unit of the Canadian Cancer Society would like to express their appreciation and gratitude to all the residents, in­ dustries, business firms and associations of the Exeter area who contributed so generously to the 1978 Cancer Campaign for funds. You have helped the Exeter Branch to attain, as of May 15, the remarkable total of $11,400.00. This achievement combined with the other four Branches in Huron has enabled the Huron County Unit to exceed its 1978 goal of $40,000.00. The excellent results of this fund raising will help the Cancer Society to continue its great work of assisting residents of this area, as well as countless other Canadians, through its programs of service to cancer patients, research and public education. A special “thank you” to the Exeter Branch Co- chairmen, Carfrey Cann, Charles Smith and Bruce Hasselback, and all the other fine volunteers, captains and canvassers who have marched on the sidewalks, knocked on doors and covered both the hard sur­ face and dusty sideroads in order to achieve this won­ derful result. Sincerely, Ross McDaniel, Jim Remington, Campaign Co-chairmen, Huron County Unit, Canadian Cancer Society. GIVE BLOOD SAVE LIFE (------. Reception and Dance BvMRS.
