A pilot project in Huron Coun- ty to cost $110,450 was given approval at last Thursday's ses- sion of County Council. The study of Urban Develop- ment in Rural Areas will be fin- anced on a cost sharing basis with the Province of Ontario pay- ing 80 percent and the County of Huron 20 percent. It will look at the desirability and effects of non-farm develop- ment in rural areas and is the first of its kind in Ontario. The tax review committee comprised of Chairman Charles Thomas, Gerry Ginn, Cecil Des- Jardine, Joe Kerr, Deb Shewfelt, Frank Cook and Warden Roy Pattison is meeting regularly now. Plans are to make recom- mendations based on the findings of the committee in the field of welfare, library and health. "The committee proposed to detail a comparison in costs be- tween population basis versus assessment basis for these three mentioned services", reported Reeve Thomas. During the brief discussion, Reeve Anson McKinley of Stanley Township applauded the recent provincial budget which gave a 50 percent tax rebate to farmers but deplored the resource equaliza- tion grant which "treats the land as a taxable resource to be equalized". "A lot of strange formulas will come out of Toronto in the next couple of years", preducted John Berry, clerk-treasurer. 'The county is giving a grant' of $1,000 to the Victorian order of Nurses whose services are now available county-wide. This grant carries with it a condi- tion, however, that the VON dies not "solicit funds from the local municipalities in HuronCOunty." University of western Ontario scholarships of $100 each• were awarded to Miss Terri Louise Paul, RR 1, Kirkton and Donald Thomas Jolly, Exeter. As well, a $100 scholarship was awarded to Robert Rowe, RR 1, Exeter, a student at Ridgetown College of Agricultural Technology.
