BRIEF HISTORY OF HMCS GODERICH • FROM' NATIONAL DEFENCE HEADQUARTERS • The "Bangor" Class minesweeper or, as she The OFA has recom- mended that posting not be necessary, although this is permissible if the problem as far as the • OFA is concerned is the non-existence of a code to specify the legal meaning of signs in Current use. Experience has shown that signs are all too easy to remove. Farmers who have posted their Property in the past have frequently had the signs torn down, and once again have found themselves liable if anything happens to a trespasser. In addition, the Federation has proposed that legal meaning be given to markings in -two colours, red and yellow, and that farmers should not have the respon- sibility of posting their' fand.

OWNERS AND TENANTS IN THE TOWNSHIP OF COLBORNE Dear Sir or Madam: The Township Council by means of a resolution dated November 20, 1979 requested an equalized assessment roll for taxation in 1980. Your Council made the request in response to a need to make assessed valuespliiitable with the assessment of similar real property in the vicinity. Consequently, your assessment notice shows your equalized assessment as required under Section 86(3) of The Assessment Act. Your 1980 taxes will be levied on this assessment. The equalized assessment was ca lculated. in the following manner: 1. The market value for each property was established for the year 1975. Market value is the amount you might expect to' obtain for: your property if you willingly sold it to a willing buyer. The market value Of a farm actually used for farming purposes is the amount you niight, as a farmer, expect to -obtain if you sold to another farmer who intends to use the land for farming purposes. 2. The market value of each property was adjusted by a factor which has. been calculated to ensure that: (a) There are no fax shifts from one class of property to another. (b) The municipality does not suffer a loss in grants or an increase in shared cost apportionments. (c) The classes and percentage factors used in Colborne Township are: Residential 5.138 percent, Industrial 5.187 percent Commercial 6.174 percent 4' Farm 9.506 percent The assessment notice shows the'following information far your assessment: _ faLThe.properly class,.under-the-tteacting Pr -ea -I -property": - - -- ( b ) The 1975 market value, under the' heading "value". • (c) The percentage factor applied, under the heading "factor". (d) The assessment under the heading "assessed value". (e) The rate at which taxes will be levied, under the heading"tais,•status". The assessment was calculated by multiplying the 1975 market value by the per- centage factor. The assessment roll will be returned to the municipal clerk on February 15, 1980. The last day on which 9ou may lodge a cop -,plaint against your assessment will be March 7, 1980. Please read carefully the instructions with respect to lodging .1 complaint which appear on the back of the assessrrient notice. In the 'Meantime, I encourage you to discuss with an assessor any concern you may . have with your assessment. If you can show him any error prior to February 15, 1980, he can correct the error and issue an amended notice with the corrected information. You, may also wish to .compare your assessment with the similar property in the vicinity. haVe arranged that assessors will be available at the following locations to discuss with yob 'as all aspects of your sessment and, if necessary, to provide ad- ditional information to you. Location - Assessment Office Board Room, 46 Gloucester Terr., Goderich - Jan. 29, 30, 31, 1:00 'p.m:- 9:00 p.m. • Location; Regional Assessment Office - Jan. 26 - Feb. 2, 9;00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. IMPORTANT If the equalized assessment had been used for taxation in 1979, I estimate that the residential mill rate would have been approximately 144.72 mills and the commercial rate would have been 170.26 mills. ' The residential mill tate is applied against all property with a tax status of residential -farm; the commercial mill rate is applied to all property with a tax status of commercial... To Calculate your estimated 1980 taxes bated on the equalized assessment, multiply the assessment shown on your notice by the appropriate mill rate. For example, a 53;000 assessment multiplied by the residential mill rate shown aboVe) 'would produce a fax Of 5434.16. This estimate is based on the municipality's 1979 budget.
