GENERAL
The following comments are presented with respect to
the financial statements.
(1) One School' board was overpaid the sum of $785.00
through error.
(2) The variations between the 1966 Budget and the actual
revenue and expenditures were in some items so large that the
Budget was a meaningless document.
(3) The bank loans for Revenue Fund purposes are in excess.
of those permitted by the Municipal Act.
(4) No approval was examined from the Ontario Municipal
Board to charge any of the 1966 road expenditures against,
1967 tax revenue.
(5) No fidelity bond was examined with respect to the
position of Secretary-Treasurer of Hullett Township School
Area Board.
(6) Funds received from sale of debentures’ for Hullett
Township School Area Board were not kept in a separate Bank
Account but deposited with the Revenue Fund monies.
AUDITOR’S OPINION
• Subject to the foregoing qualifications, I hereby report that
in my opinion
(1) The financial 'transactions which have come under my
notice have been within the powers of the municipalities.
(2) The audit has been conducted in accordance with the
instructions of the Department of Municipal Affairs.
(3) The financial statements present fairly the financial
position of the municipality as at December 31, 1966 and the
results of its operations for the year ended on that date.
