SEAFORTH TAX RATE
RISES 13.4 MILL:
Seaforth public school ratepayer:
will pay a tax rate of 71,4 mills this
year, an increase of 18.4 mills oven
last year. Separate school support-
ers will pay 61,4 mills, an increase
of 1,6 mills, The tax rate was set at
the regular July meeting of council
on Monday night.
Mayor E. A. McMaster presided,
with all members present except
Councillor K, Sharp.
Mayor McMaster reported having
interviewed the Department of
Health at Toronto re laying a sewer
behind the stores and putting in a
disposal plant, Mr, Berry, the sani-
tary engineer, had expressed full ap-
proval of this plan which had been
outlined by the Huron County
Health Unit, and he is to come to
Seaforth in the very near future to
go over details with Council, the
Mayor said.
The Mayor said he had also con-
tacted the Graham Reid engineer-
ing firm, who had offered a very
reasonable plan which would work
out at 3 mills on the general tax rate
plus $20 per year from each store.
The system could be added to
from year to year as necessity arose,
and the disposal plant would be suf-
ficient for 2,000 people.
Total cost of the project is esti-
mated at 106,350.
Reeve .Scoins asked if a vote of
the people would be taken, The
Mayor replied a vote is not neces-
sary and he 'had hopes the work
night be started this fall.
The reeve thought people in the
south end of town could not benefit
because of the cast of passing the
old recreation ground, He thought
it a good idea if this unused land
could be sold for building lots, or
ratepayers in the vicinity inight
want to revert to the township. -
The Mayor said there is a possi-
bility Goderich street west might be
included in the project to which the
hospital could be connected if need
arises.
Further discussion was left in
abeyance until Mr, Berry comes to
look it over.
Streets committee 'r e p o i' t by
Councillor Close showed that 5088
sq. feet of new sidewalks had been
laid, repairing sidewalks on six
streets, and more is to be done
holes were filled in roads with cold
patch and a catch basin near the
sep rate school repaired,
'Reeve S'coins complained that the
town workmen are using good fire
hose for blowing out drains and
street work. Much cheaper hose
would do that work, he said. Coun-
cillor Crich claimed that 400 feet of
old fire hose had disappeared since
last August, and it was worth $3 -a
foot, The reeve said the town men
have no authority to use fire hose
as it soon gets ruined for fire use.
The property committee had instal-
led a new sink in the town house at
the old waterworks, Good progress
is being made on the town hall re-
pairs. Councillor Crich inquired if
there was any chance of getting the
fire hall doors widened.
Town clerk D. FL Wilson reported
an inquiry from out of town to buy
one of the old drinking fountains.
Reeve Scoins thought instead of
selling it the town should put at
least one drinking fountain on Main
street as nearly all towns have
drinking fountains. Seaforth at one
time had four.
Reporting for the Fire and Water
committee, Councillor Crich recon;-
mended purchase of new inexpen-
sive red flares for the fire truck
which could be quickly set out to
stop cars blocking streets near a
fire. On Sunday on Market Street
the street was lammed with cars.
Police will be instructed to also dir-
ect traffic at fires.
Forty gallons of gas had been
used pumping at the Lions Park, he
said, suggesting no. charge be made
as it was also good experience for
firemen in truck operation.
Councillor Christie asked if it can
be proved who the person was who
set off the false alarm early Mon-
day morning. Councillor Crich said
the alarm had been phoned in from
the Supertest pay station and he
knows who did it and action will fol-
low if it can be proved.
A motion was passed declaring
Monday, August 3rd civic ;holiday.
Building permits were issued to-
talling $17, 350, as follows:
Geo. D. Ferguson, house on James
Street, $8,000; 'C, P: VanMil, house
across from High School, $5,000;
F. W. Hoelscher, kitchen, $800; N.
Caseino, sun porch, $450; Jas. El-
liott, garage, $200; Wm. Smith.
store front, $8,000; C. Addieo•tt,
$400.
A request for fish peddlers li-
cense from an out-of=town man was
not approved.
A bylaw was passed at request of
Huron County Health Unit setting
fees for inspection of plumbing and
sewers. Fees for house drain and
sewer is $2 and household inspec-
tion 18.00, larger and commercial
installations pro rata. This applies
to new installations.
Councillor 'Christie asked about
collection of unpaid business taxes
and was instructed to take neceesarY
action. Collection of tax arrears are
$2,400 ahead of last year, treasurer
D, H, Wilson stated.
'Council was pleased to learn that
the flour mill has been purchased by
the Topnotch Feeds Limited, a
