PHONE 235-1070 TOWNSHIP of STEPHEN AUDITOR'S REPORT To: The Members of Council. and Ratepayers of the Corporation of the Township of Stephen. I have examined the 1974 financial statements of the Corpora- tion of the Township of Stephen and its local boards. which are listed on the attached Index. My examination included a general review of the accounting procedures and such tests of accounting records and other supporting evidence as 1 con- sidered necessary in the circumstances. In my opinion these financial statements present fairly the financial position of the Corporation of the Township of Stephen and its local boards as at December 31st. 1974. and the results of their operations for the year then ended. in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted for Ontario municipalities applied on a basis consistent with that of the preceding year.
