Home My WebLink AboutTimes-Advocate, 1985-05-01, Page 184 �Countr, edvcation rotes hike Lucn taxes Taxes will go up in Lucan this year, but that's more because of an in- crease in school levies and county levies than because of Lucan council spending. This year's total education mill rates are 38.493 residential and 45.286 commercial, as opposed to 33.030 residential and 38.860 commercial last year. That's a 16.54 per cent in- crease in the total school rates. The county mill rate has gone up a total of nine per cent. from 4.736 residential and 5.572 commercial to 5.162 residential and 6.073 commercial. This compares to a mere 3.87 per cent rise in Lucan's general mill rate, from 17.248 residential and 20.291 commercial, to 17.916 residential and 21.077 commercial. For the average taxpayer. the neW rates mean a $91.79 increase in taxes. On a home assessed at $14.000,the tax bill will be $861.99. compared to $770.20 last year.

Cheers to Volunteers What in the world would our com- munity do without the multitude of volunteer workers who give so freely of their time? There are many who work with the Helping Hands organization, and everyone in the community has had a visit from a Cancer Campaign volunteer during the month of April. Many in the village were also in- volved in the Blood Donor Clinic last week, as well as those who donated blood. the Lions Club Fair would be one gigantic calamity without the more than 100 volunteers who help put together this great project, and the Optimists could not possibly do all their youth work without the help of many volunteers. The Knights of Columbus, the Royal Canadian Legion and the Aux- iliary to the Legion, Irving Lodge, the Women's Institute, the Home and School Association anti the Parent Teachers' Association are all made up of people who volunteer their time in their organizations. The various Church groups could not possibly carry on their many ac, tivities without the help of everyone of their members; all volunteers. The Guide -Scout movement would be a lost cause without their volunteer leadership and many activities at the Arena and Community Centre would not be available if many volunteers were not on the ice, on the playgrotutd or in the hall to help. So ... Let's give a cheer for each volunteer; Not just today, But all through the year. Hip, hip hurrah!
