SEAFORTH, Friday, August 17th
Seaforth's New Rate
Seaforth's new tax rate of 84.1
mills for Public School supporters,
and 77.4 mills for Separate School
upporters, establishes a record. In -
,creased some five mills over the 1955
rate, the current levy reflects in -
:creased county and school demands,
and for the first time takes into con-
ideration debenture payments of
the new sewer system.
As was pointed out in Council
when the matter was being consider-
ed, the increase to a great extent is
as a result of requisitions by other
spending bodies over which ouncil
has no control. The Cou�as an
example, is called on to raise an
amount for schools greater than t
amount it is proposed to spend #dor'
the general purposes of the muniei-.
pality.
This situation has come about to
a great extent because the propor- -
tion Of education costs covered by
grants, has become smaller through
the years. A greater percentage of
education costs must, therefore, be
borne by the municipality.
While it is true, in terms of dollars,
provincial grants for education have
increased in the past ten years, the
increase has not kept pace with the
increase in costs and as a result each
year local real estate is called on to
produce an increasing amount.
There will be concern, of course,
at the high rate, but in looking at
the matter objectively, two facts
must be kept in mind. The first is
that the 84.1 mill rate of today is
based' on 1956 dollars and is not far
removed in terms of actual cost to
the ratepayer from the rate that
applied ten years ago.
The second point to remember is
that the rate is but a reflection of
the demands which are made on the
Council for better streets, for grants
for this and that, for morepolice,
and fire protection, and for -sue try
other things, each of which costs
money!.
Such requests, while not for a
moment unreasonable, do cost
money. And money the . Council
spends conies from only one source
—the ratepayer. Sometimes we are
.inclined to forget.
