IBM informed council. while individual price changes will vary. overall increases ono Iesst than 4 per cent. Councillor Ab Murray suggested council send 11364 a letter asking them to stay within the provincial and federal guidelines of six and five per cent. Mutray said council should refuse to sign. the proposed agree- ment with IBM midi they ask IBM to stay within the suggested guidelines. Councillor Eldon Mann commented if council breaks down on the six and five per cent guideline in this instance. they would be expected to do it across the board: • Lucknow pays a flat rate for the printing of its tax bills because the order is smaller than IBM"s minimum order, but the increase for custom batchprocessing of tax bills, the category Lucknow is designated to, is 12 per cent, which will see an increase in the flat rate.
