PUC urged to protest OST The Seaforth Public Utilities Commission has recently reeieved correspondence from the "Municipal Electric Association, urging the Commission to protest the proposed Federal government's Goods and Sevices 'Fax. Under the GST, consumers could "see their 'heat and eledtrtcity costs jump by 15 per cent. Ontario Hydro officials are predicting an average rate increase of 6 per cent over the next three years and this, combined with the Goods and Services Tax, could see the average electrical bill climb by as much as an extra 65240 per month in 1991. The Municipal Electric Association has begun active lobbying to have electricity classified as a vital service and be given a "0" rating in the produetion/distribution chain, This would make electricity a tax- exempt service. At present, municipal water supplies are classified as tax ex- empt, although gas is not. A limited number of Canadian goods and services, such as groceries and prescrip- tion drags, will be exempt Irvin the 'pro- posed 9% tax hike. Health >and '- lerttal carr and education `services 'will also `be*spared. Membership lees -for nonainti itrobganiza- tions may or not be classified as' taxable, but the choice will be tapp to the individual organization. If the membership is taxable, registered members will be eligible to elatm a tax credit on Their fees.

Any other goods and services continuous- ly provided via pipelines, wires etc. will be taxed in this manner.

"Maybe the county should come forth with a position that we can all support," said is reeve of Towneaship. He addd that membersf an interministerial study group told him recently that the pipeline proposal is get- ting serious consideration. Council was also told, both by Cunn- ingham and administrators Bill Hanly and Gary Davidson, that the study group has said it will not make a recommenda- tion until Huron County finally reaches a decision. "I think we are holding the thing in the paim of our hands," said Hanly. "I think Huron County Council does have a hit of One Huron reeve reminded council that his and other municipalities have taken an official position that the CP land should go back to the landowners, whose property is otherwise separated by the corridor.'
