BIA loan
off to OMB
Exeter council took action
this week to set the wheels in
motion for the Business
Improvement Area to
receive a $150,000 loan from
the provincial government
for revitalization of the core
area.
First and second reading
were given to a bylaw ap-
proving the loan and it will
now be sent to the Ontario
Municipal Board for ap-
proval.
A couple of obstacles still
remain, however. One is the
passage of a property
standards and maintenance -
bylaw. It was recently at-
tacked at a public meeting
and ew draft is expected
to be rea Sed by the planning
board for council's next
meeting. -
IUeeve Si Simmons in-
dicated this week he is also
concerned about who would
be responsible for the loan
should the BIA disband. He
said he asked a ministry of
housing official that question
at a recent conference and
was not given the answer,
although it should arrive in
writing shortly.
Simmons said be,was
wondering if the repayent
of the loan would fall on all
taxpayers or just.those in the
BIA if the latter disbanded.

Hours are curbed
Whistlers take note!
Do you have a noisy dog?
Better get a muzzle or it
could cost you up to $1,000.
That's one of the things
that will be prohibited as a
result of Exeter council
giving final reading Monday
to a bylaw to control noise in
the municipality.
While animals noises are
to be controlled through the
bylaw, so too will people who
like to yell, shout, hoot,
whistle or even sing.
They'll be prohitibted from
doing that in any quiet zone
at all times, or in any place
between the hours of 11:00
p.m. and 8:00 a.m. -
. Construction equipment
will have to be silenced
between the hours of 8:00
p.m. and 6:00 a.m. in any
zone.
However, ifyou really enjoy
whistling and fear you may
Assessment
considered
Exeter residents will
probably know within a
couple of weeks whether
council will move to adopt a
new set of assessment
factors for all properties
Officials from the
assessment department
were on hand Monday ,to
present the impact review of
implementation of section 86
of the Assessment Act which
had been requested by
council.
Ken Feagan detailed the
impact of the changes.
although most members of
council indicated they were
still slightly confused about
the' situation after -he
finished.
However. it would appear
that if the section is im-
plemented, the owners of
many older homes will face
assessment increases while
many new home owners will
enjoy some decreases.
The assessment official
indicated 719 of the 1488
residential units would be
decreased and 769 would
increase.
Those increases could
result in tax increases as
high as $322.
The new factors are based
on market- values of 1975.
Council members had only
a few questions for Feagan
and then decided to turn the
matter over to the finance
.cori►mittee .for \' their
recommendation for the next
meeting.
unwittingly burst into tune
during hours when you could
contravene the new bylaw,
there are provisions in it to
ask council to grant you an
exemption.
That, of course, is at their
discretion. It may require an
audition to determine the
quality of your whistling or
the effect it may have on
those within ear -shot?
People who oppose your
application will be given an
opportunity to be heard on
the matter.
Council members did not
indicate they would have the
new bylaw circulated to
make citizens aware of its
contents.
Nor was there any in-
dication if the singing of
Christmas carols in the
hospital quiet zone would be
prohibited asVthe bylaw
dictates.
