and a week of doing nothing in some cases a fellow had no
alternative but to do a bit of work. Here Michael Harris

Stanley TOwnShip'S An,Sori
McKinley, deputy-reeve,, Said he
was concerned about the budget-
ting system of county council.
fgr have been cencerned about
it since i came into county
council," stated Reeve McKinley
"But it seems to me we're tied
to the system. Qur system may
have faults, but I haven't an idea
fOr the better one."
"Priorities at the ,municipal
level tend to be set by the pro-
vincial government, priorities,"
Reeve McKinley went on. "even
though the two may not be com-
patible. We should be working
for a system whereby we at the
local, levels set our own priori-
ties."
"I'll predict it is in the
future, but I don't know when,"
Reeve McKinley concluded. "It
is imperative that it come and
we must be ready to accept the
responsibilities that, will go with
setting our own priorities. If
we think this is a debate this
morning, wait until we start set-
ting priorities. This will seem
just like a Boy Scout affair."
Mr. Britnell endorsed a
system of "unconditional grants"
from the provincial government.
He said a brief asking for essen-
tially that very thing had gone
from the road committee to the
DTC. The idea, Mr. Britnell
said, was for a lump sum to be
given to the county annually,
with the county determining how
it was to be spent.
"Can the county afford a
reserve fund for the road de-
partment?" asked. Reeve Gower.
Chairman Elston said the road
committee was not in favor of
cutting the mill rate one year,
and increasing it the next. He
said the preferred method was
to keep it constant whenever
possible.
"We think it is a good idea
to keep a continuous mill rate
of 10 mills," Reeve Elston told
council.
Mr. Britnell noted that if it
was not possible to spend the
reserve on roads in Huron
County in 1973 as expected, the
reserve fund could be transfer-
red to another department.
He also told council that be-
cause of the drastic cutback in
road spending in 1972, fewer
summer and casual laborers
would be engaged by the county
this year.
"It is not a very pleasant
outlook," the county engineer
concluded.
