An Act respecting the Village of Exeter, Statutes of Ontario 1899, Chapter 47 is repealed. 2. Village of Exeter By-Law No. 8, 1899, Being a By- Law to provide a fixed general mill rate for farmland in blocks of not less than 20 acres is repealed. In 1899, the Municipal Council of the Corporation of the Village of Exeter set a fixed rate of three and one-half mills on the general mill rate, together with rates for debenture debt, school and county pur­ poses. The relief was granted to owners of farmland in blocks in excess of twenty (20) acres for such ser­ vices as electric lighting, fire protection, sidewalks etc. Assessment and mill rates have changed over the years. Some properties assessed as farmland have residences attached, enjoying these services that exemption was granted for. Council of the Corporation of the Town of Exeter deem this fixed rate for farmland no longer equitable or fair. By applying to the Provincial Legislature for the Act and By-Law to be repealed will cause the owners of the said parcels of •'farmland to be subject to full general municipal mill rate (including debenture debt), as well as the rates for school and county pur­ poses. Dated at Exeter, this 25th day of July, 1978. Mrs. Elizabeth Bell Clerk-Treasurer Town of Exeter 406 Main Street Box 759 EXETER, Ontario NOM 1 SO meeting of county council. “Our school population is thoroughly protected. We are advocating that those who are under 40 and can’t recall when they last had a booster shot go to the health unit or their doctor. But it’s not a panic situation.” the MOH said. Dr. Hutchison said his staff is keeping tabs on a small group of Dutch tobacco workers now in Middlesex County. They would be tested, he said. The outbreak in Oxford County has affected members of the Netherlands Reformed Congregation, some of who oppose immunization. Council also learned that its road employees will be in a strike-lockout situation in September after contract negotiations with a con­ ciliation officer reached an impasse. Forty-five mem­ bers of the Canadian Union of Public Employees have been toiling on the county roads without a contract since the end of June. Middlesex County Council will have nine fewer members after this November’s municipal elections. That is the number of deputy reeves - including those of West Nissouri, Biddulph and McGillivray - who will no longer sit on council as of December 1. The August meeting of­ ficially approved a ruling that towns and townships with fewer than 2,500 elec­ tors will sent only their reeves to the county body. The previous minimum qualification was 1,000 electors. Council is reduced from 37 to 28 members. And the Middlesex council was also told by experts who work with wild predators - wolves, foxes and coyotes - that they believe bounties are not the answer in stop­ ping the killing of livestock. Ministry of Natural Resources biologist Dennis Voigt said - “where you have specific problems of killing, you need better husbandry.” Farmers can solve the problem by bringing their animals into the yard or barn at night. The ministry scientist said the same farmers tend to be victims repeatedly and usually it’s a case of poor husbandry. John McCabe, a farmer and trapper, said his ex­ perience has been that when wolves - often innocent ones - are killed off, others just move in to take their place and that increased the chances of importing livestock killers.
