The vote was close as coun- cil representatives from Huron's urban centres ex- pressed concern for the wor- ding of one of the recommendations. The recommendation which the urban representatives were wary of was "Educa- tional taxes on all farm land and farm buildings should either be removed or rebated". "I see a shift from rural land to urban homes and businesses," said Exeter Reeve Bill Mickle. "Being from an urban centre I will vote against this. I want my vote recorded...I have not been shown that to' remove education taxes from farms would not increase it (the taxi to urban ratepayers." Hay Township Reeve Lionel Wilder suggested Reeve Mickle look at recom- mendation number four which states "that farm residences will be taxed on Ecole Ste. Marie Continued from front page and travel pay, leaving an estimated saving of $12,000. Across the system. if the total number of schools was reduced from its current number of 19 to 10. the estimated saving would be $108,000. Eckert also pointed out that if the number of schools was reduced from 19 to 14, the estimated savings would be $60,000. Having made a decision regarding Ecole Ste. Marie. the board approved hiring a principal in order to fill the vacancy at immaculate Con- ception School in Strafford. Town accidents Continued from front page Main and Gidley. Damage m that one was $400. The other crash occurred on Monday at the Huron and Main St. intersection involv- ing vehicles operated .by Elaine Knip, RR 1 Centralia, and Robert Sawyfr. Mitchell. Damage was $1,500. During the week, the local officers laid seven charges under the Highway Traffic Act and two under the Liquor Licence Act. Hall of fame Continued from front page the Glengarry Sports Hall of Fame which could be used as a framework for Huron's. Mr ('reamer said the list of Huron County athletes goes on and on "When one starts to recall names of sports greats from Huron County. names like Ron Fagan come to mind. Ile was the Canadian harness race driving champion and he hailed from Colborne Township. Danny Wiggins was the world roller skating champion after beating the Australian champion William ('orrey by 10 miles. Wiggins travelled 163 miles on roller skates in 10 hours ... Rosy Stoddart is another Huron County native who in the 1930's excelled in track and field events as well as hockey," said Creamer. "I am not here to ask for any money; only that you take this information back to your councils, local hockey, baseball. soccer or other sports groups. Give them the information and have them contact us," explained Creamer. the same basis as other rural residential units receiving the same services, including educational taxes." Reeve Wilder said the fourth recommendation in- dicates rural residences will be paying education taxes. ljeeve Mickle pointed out that the farm buildings are a part of the industry of agriculture and if education taxes are removed, urban in- dustries will want the same consideration. "It's an alternative that could happen," said Reeve Mickle, adding, "the word 'removed" scares me". The Exeter reeve noted he is in favor of the recommen- dations suggested by the federation's task force, but emphasized several times it is the word "removed" in reference to education- taxes t!.at he is opposed to. .
