F. ,Christie ;presiding. A 'de'putation of James ptew- art;: J. E. Keating and Dr. Mc- Master from then guarantee -group for bhe community centre floor asked council to take over: the $4,500 debt which had been personally guaranteed, by five mien. Mr. 1Stewart pointed out that the guarantors had taken over the tdebt to avoid the 12% interest rate being' charged by a. finance company. Present in- terest •amountst to about 1,280 a year. They urged immediate ac- tion by council .owing to the re- cent 'death, of one guarantor, as • $900 of his estate is tied up in the collateral. Reeve rSeoins •said council had ,approved last year of assuming the debt, this council must de- . Bide how. (Mayor !Christie said to as- sume the whole debt in one year would en'ean 3 mills extra taxes. Tie deputation said they would be satisfied if it were par off in three years. Council later decided to pay $1,500 im- mediately and recommend to future councils to pay off the balance. Coenmittee reports by the 1957 chairmen showed routine street work, property •commit- tee ha•d bo fix floor at the old pump house residence and ar- r •a'n g e reimbursement with FrankIK•ling for directing work at town hall. A. :ear of coal had been purchased. 'Councillor Turnbull reported that the firemen require a heat er on the rural truck and wind- shield wipers that will work. (Present wipers ^ do not work while truck is snaking a run. The fire chief had asked per- anission bo approach :the rural councils about installing "Wet- terWater" gadget on the truck which is claimed to give 9 times the value from a tank of water. Chief of Police Edward Ehr- hardt was present and made several requests including a pension plan for police, hospit- alization, town to pay. part of the (high insurance rate on po1- lice cars, purchase of sirens for the cars, parking space for both police cars in front of the town hall, and that bhe north side of Gouinlock street be definitely :made No Parking to allow the fire truck to go out. Councillor Rivers asked if two-hour Dancing is in force on Main •street.Councillors were agreed it should, he enf•oroed, with 'discretion, but proper me- tal signs are needed. The .mer- chants are the worst offenders, it was stated and not one shop- per in a month would be affect- ed. The (police committee will work out the details with police. The treasurer's report re- vealed tax sale receipts of 117,- 9815 as all properties had been redeemed. Tax arrear receipts were $19,62.8, almost double previous year, and current tax receipts are :$5,000 over last year. Tex sale receipts go into surplus. A motion was passed author- izing the mayor or finance chair- man :to sign checks jointly with treasurer. Also a motion for the payment of '$10 to election of: ficers and polling 'booths. A financial report of the coenmunity centre .committee was read by Councillor Baldwin showing $1194 outstanding ac- counts and a net loss .in •Decena her of i$598. Much discussion ensued as to means of aiding the arena. Ronald MacDonald and C. Tioweliffe. were appoint - ted to the .committee for one- year term. It was explained that the committee functions until all. in- debtedness is oleared, then the board takes over. MI members are._council epipvintees, albhouglh some are recommended by , so-: cieties wiiih an interest in tlihe arena. The finance committee will meet with 'Messrs. Teall and Me- Donald'bo discuss the finances. - 'Council decided not to renew the .contract with oCardno \Bros. for the use of clock in their tower. Councillor (Brady said he could,not see the clock had any further use, Councillor Turn- bull thought a lot of small ac- counts mounted up, Councillor Habkirk said ,Council should pay the $80 being asked • or not et all Jas $40 was not enough. A letter from .Scott Memorial Hospital Board offered to meet with.council to discuss Sonne ;plan whereby the hospital enigiht' be able to :use the town sewer. Mayor Christie said there is not much we can do until we get a plan of some kind. Corn cillor Turnibu•ll • suggested , ask- ing theOntario 'Waiter Retsoiirc-. es Commission for information, they set up and operate a sewer with municipality paying it back over 30 years. The sewerage. committee was asked to work on it. Reeve Scoins said the town might (buy a machine and do the work themselves over 10 years. The usual tax prepayment plan was held over at the re- quest of Mayor 'Christie until council -can look into the two payment tax system. The saving would be about !half a mill in interest. On the other hand many senall taxpayers depend on the prepayment ,plan and have their taxes almost all paid at tax time. Penalties would be necessary to enforce twice yearly payments, but could, not exceed the present 4 per cent. The finance committee will look into it and report.
