Suggest squirrels
be protected
Exeter's squirrels may soon not
have to worry about burying nuts and
other goodies to tide then over
through the winter months.
At Monday night's council session.
there was a suggestion that the town
and local groups provide feeders and
nesting habitat in the local parks to
look after the squirrel population's
needs.
Reeve Bill Mickle, who had infor-
mation about the requirements. said
that attracting the squirrels to the
parks would not only protect the white
species but would also alleviate the
need for local people to trap the
animals when they become a
nuisance.
"11 were going to protect the :quit
rels, we should do something to pro-
vide food and habitat in the
parks•"Mickle said.
Mayor Bruce Shaw said such a sug-
gestion could result in involvement of
students at the high school as well as
the BIA.
Shaw said he was surprised at how
angry some citizens were with those
who Rap the squirrels and noted Ilia,
some of those trapped. includinc
white ones. had been shipped to olhe►
area communities.
He said it would be a "negligible -
cost to provide for the squirrels in t he
parks.
No action was taken on the
suggest ions.

New rent review legislation planned by the Government of
Ontario means that the responsibilities of landlords and
tenants will be changed retroactive to August 1, 1985.
As of that day, a rent review guideline of 4% is to apply to
most apartment buildings, and rented townhouses,
duplexes, condominiums and individual dwellings such
as houses. Other specifics include:
• Under rent review, landlords may increase rents up to a specified
limit without applying for a review of the proposed new rent.
However, if the tenant objects to the proposed increase — even
if it is below the specified limit — he or she may also apply
for a review.
Until August 1st, 1985, a 6% rent review guideline covered most
private rental accommodation except units occupied after 1975
and certain units renting for $750 a month or more.
• Retroactive to August 1st, 1985, a 4% rent review guideline is to
cover all private rental units including those occupied after
1975 and those renting for more than $750 a month.
• Until the legislation is in place landlords can legally collect a 6
per cent increase. However, provision will be made for the '
payment of rebates to tenants of any amount over 4 per cent,
unless a higher increase can be justified in a rent review hearing.
Accordingly, all landlords are being asked to voluntarily comply
with the 4 per cent limit in order to avoid a time-consuming
rebate process.
For further information on how
the new legislation will affect you,
please contact your nearest
