Belgrave Pay-TV doser Belgrave has moved one step closer to having cable television available in the village, with Morris Township council raising no objection to a land rental agreement between a village resident and the company. Sam Pletch attended the May 17 session of council to ask approval for a rental agreement himself and Kincardine Cable TV for land for a term of three to five years, with an option to buy. He said he had informed the company it must maintain the lot throughout the agreement. In April, executives of the company met with council and were given approval to proceed with the project, with instructions to prepare a draft agreement for council’s approval May 3. How­ ever, council was later informed that the matter of acquiring suitable land for the erection of a transmission tower and satellite dish had not been resolved, and the meeting was put off indefinitely. On Monday, Morris clerk-trea­ surer Nancy Michie said she had had no further request for a meeting with council, and The Citizen was unable to contact a company spokesman for comment.

Interest charges and service fees should be closely examined whenever you are in the market for credit. Rates vary greatly and the methods of calculating interest and services differ from one institution to another. It is your right—and in your best interest—to know precisely how much credit is costing you! You should always compare carefully such things as: • the interest rate being charged • the amount of time allowed to pay in full before interest is charged • how the interest charges are calculated • the non-interest charges such as transaction or service fees • the competitive benefits offered by one institution over another 1*1 Consumer and Corporate Affairs Canada Consommation et Corporations Canada Canada
