FLOWERPOTS HIT BY
FLYING MILL RATE
Wingham's faMous flowerpots
were a casualty in, the 'battle to
keep the mill rate down, at the
council meeting -on Monday, night.
Town councillors, busy paring
away at estimates which originally
would have resulted in an even
higher mill rate, pared the ,flower-
pots right out of existence. in an
effort to keep expenses down.
Last year cost of plants • and
watering them every day amount-
ed to $565 for the season, with
watering costs accounting for• .
approximately $15 a week. "With
taxes going up the way they are;(
we can't afford flower pots", said
Councillor Jack Alexander, chair-
man of the streets committee.
A suggestion that the flowerpots
he planted by volunteer labor
didn't get anyWhere, eithe r.
"They'll have to be watered or
they'll die", said Mr. Alexander,
"And watering is the biggest part
of the 'expense."
Other members ,of council, agreed
with Mr. Alexander' 'that the
flowerpots would have to go. The
exception was Councillor Wilkin-
son, owho said: "It costs only 85c
per household per year to keep the
flowerpots. Surely we can afford
that."
;` A motion. by Earl Hamilton and'
Roy Adair that flowerpots be dis-
pensed with this year was carried.

four items ,,alone,
One of the items accounting for
last year's deficit was an increased
expenditure on streets in town,
which put the public works depart-
ment approXimately $9,000 over its
estimate of $23,000.
Public Works Chairman Jack
Alexander explained to council that
a good percentage of this extra.
expense was_ attributable to non-
recurring expenditures, and that,
the balance of the amount over
estimates had been spent "to pro-
tect our investment in streets" by
sealing and surfacing streets.
Mr. Alexander said that the fol-
lowing "extras" were needed dur-
ing the year, and could not be post-
poned:. sewer pump, $574; opening
clogged. drains, $2,171; town's por-
tion of CNR bridge walk, $426;
putting black top on main street
after curbs removed, $757; sealing
and surfacing streets,' $5,165; Fry
and Blackhall corner, $486.
The town expects to spend $24,000
this year on streets, including
$14,000 on maintenance, $6,000 on
new construction and $4,000 on
non-subsidy work. Maintenance
and new construction work is sub-
jects to a 50% grant from the
Ontario department of highways.
