Reeve Derry Boyle said part of the difference may rest in the county contributions of the two communities. He predicted Mitchell probably paid $24,000 a year to Perth while Exeter's share to Huron this year will'be $107,000. Mayor Jack Delbridge entered the debate to point out that council controlled less than 50 percent of the tax money they collected. The town hall came up for a brief discussion as well, when Pete Connon asked why the referendum had been removed from the ballot. Councillor Bruce Shaw replied that not enough faCts had been gathered by council to present the question to the ratepayers and it had therefore been dropped from the ballot this year, Exeter resident wins Lions draw The Montreal ' Alouettes won the Grey Cup Sunday afternoon in Vancouver, but to Karl Ortmanns of RR 3 Exeter the score was imporlant. Ortmanns held a 20-7 for Montreal ticket in the Exeter Lions club draw and he wins $500. Dave McDonald, 212 Columbia Crescent, Huron Park, won $50 for having the correct score at half-time and Glenn Robinson, Exeter is the winner of $75 with the exact score at the end of the third quarter. Max Dawson, chairman of the Lions Grey Cup committee said Monday night, the winner of $25 for the first quarter score had not been determined as yet.

Albert Steeper, 18 Huron East, complained about the new law later in the meeting, saying he previously burned his leaves in the backyard and sprinkled the ashes on the garden. He noted that it had cost $442.70 to get the leaves picked up by local youngsters this year and estimated it had cost $47.02 on his own block alone. "I hope the 1975 council can see fit to rescind the bylaw," he stated, after wondering how the country got along before with steam engines, locomotives and wood and coal fires. Mayor Jack Delbridge said he had not been in line with the new bylaw either, but noted that the ministry of the environment was "forcing these things on us." However, Councillor Ben Hoogenboom said that the $400 to rid the town of all the leaves this year was not a lot of money and added that no other town of Exeter's size allowed residents to burn leaves. "Burning creates problems for neighbors," he concluded, noting that few people burn anything when the wind is blowing in the direction of their own property. Pete Connon said that rescinding the bylaw would be a retrogressive step in his opinion. "Leave them (leaves) alone and nature will take care of them," he said. The local high school teacher said it was a shame to burn the valuable nutrients found in leaves. While the audience appeared to be split on their opinion regar- ding leaves, the debate ended rather abruptly after Ted Lamport, Sanders St., explained that the leaves had not been taken to the dump (except the first load) but rather had been taken to the cemetery where the manager was composting them. "In a couple of years we'll have a lot of good fertilizer," Mr. Lamport said with cheers coming from the proponents of the anti- burning bylaw. Kaaren Batten said after the leaf debate that council should show some leadership in having residents composte all wet garbage and separate other components for recycling. Both Mayor Delbridge and council candidate Barbara Bell said they were in favor of recycling. The parking and traffic problem in the vicinity of the new post office also came up for discussion after Mrs. Bell termed it a "disaster area." Another council candidate, Garnet Hicks, faulted the 1974 council for' their lack of effort in having the streets in the vicinity in better shape for the opening of the post office, He said he shudders to think what the boulevards on the street will be like when spring arrives. It was noted that parking was more of a problem at the new location because people appeared to be driving rather than walking. as many had done at the down- town location, Doug Ellison questioned council on the use of their tax dollars, noting that in his home town of Mitchell they had all the streets paved, the sewers in and they had just completed a $600,000 arena, "Have we made good use of our tax money," he asked, "or has their been poor planning on our part?" "There was a time when we were walking and we should have been running," Councillor Ted Wright replied. "In the past we should have Parking, garbage also mentioned Ratepayers spark .leaf burning debate
