creased their -budget mainly -by
wage increases and by the hiring
of an additional constable and nee.

will bring about a more effic.

In spite • of these increased
costs, needed improvements and
general updating of our town, the
residential mill rate will reflect
a 0.37 mill increase to , 82.33
'which will represent to the avert
age home owner with a $3,500.03
assessment, an increase of $1.19
for .the year. The industrial.com.
mercial mill rate will show an
increase of 2.37 mills to 92.40.
-These tax -rates will continue to
place Goderich` in an enviable
position for towns of similar
size in Ontario. . „ •
• Insummary, I say That this is
a progressive budget and what I
would term -a --".catchup" budget.

on all parts of our town will be
