Council voted unanimously have representatives ot the Ministry of Revenue proceed with a re -assess- ment- of township property. In a preliminary report, y representatives Jerry Morgan and Don Ker - nick noted that. some resi- dential properties were over: assessed while others were under -assessed. In the new assessment, council stressed that there be no increases on properties where owners are on fixed incomes. They learned, however, that the Ontario Residential Tax _Re- bate and the Farm —Tax Reductiori program would handle such increases. Council decided to hold workshops in January to • altow residents to the new property assessment. The workshops will be handled individually, and they may appeal to the Assessment Review Court if they feel they have been unjustly assessed. The council passed a by- , law, which, if approved by the Ministry _of Natural Resources, will be used to set maximum fees for huntieg licences for pheasant and rabbit in regulated hunting areas. _ Oettherfest supper at Brodhagen • MRS.
