Jack Riddell, Minister of Agriculture and Food and MPP for Huron today announced that the Village of Bayfield will receive special financial assistance of $51,997 from the province. Speaking on behalf of the Hon. John Eakins, Minister of Municipal Af- fairs, Riddell said the funding is in ad- dition to the $170,854 contributed by the province earlier this year. The village was required to spend considerable amounts of money tp repair. a portion of Long Hill Road damaged as a result of the Bayfield riverbank erosion and an abnormal- ly high water table. "The grant will help reduce the tax burden on ratepayers in the municipality," Riddell said. This special assistance grant will be provided under the Ontario Uncondi- tional Grants Act which provides for assistance to municipalities in which the minister believes that property taxes are unduly high or have been unduly increased for any one of a number of reasons set out in the legislation. These may include a substantial loss of revenue previously available to the municipality, or circumstances beyond the control of council and of an unusual or special nature.
