Seniors enjoy bus trip
In an effort to hold the mill rate
for residents of Hullett Township
close to the 1992 level, council
decided to trim some expenditures
from transportation and road recon-
struction, says township clerk, Bev
Shaddick.
The decision was made at the
Aug. 17 meeting.
By cutting over $10,000 from the
budget council was able to main-
tain the 1992 rate, she says.
Even with council restraints,
ratepayers will see an increase in
their taxes. The total amount con-
sists of rates from the township
council, Huron County, the Board
of Education and the Huron-Perth
Roman Catholic Separate School
Board.
For supporters of the public
school system, there will be a rate
increase of 2.99 percent. This wil
raise the taxes on a $50,000 assess-
ment from $739.80 to $761.95.
The separate school board did not
increase the mill rate however, tax-
payers will see a rise of .253 per-
cent. The additional $5.65 goes to
the county.
The mill rate increases are 2.9
percent for the public elementary,
4.7 percent for the public secondary
and 4.3 percent for the county.

to move people from the parking
areas to the "city" and the plowing
