June 13, 1963 -* Page 3 Wingham $ame Most Assessments Have Increased GODERICH--There has been an assessment increase in every Huron municipality since the 1962 report, county assessor A. A. Alexander told county coun- cil at its June session. The to- tal increase, $1,061,759, brings the county total to 863,- 390,020, 63,-390,020, No outstanding increases are noted when comparison is made with the 1962 figures. For the towns, 1963 assessment is as follows, with previous amount in brackets: Clinton, $2,604,304 ($2, - 518, 709); Exeter, $3,030,295, ($2,923,615); Goderich, $7, - 080,925, ($6, 770, 615); Sea - forth, $1,865,834, (31, 779, - 563); Wingham, $2,661,465, almost exactly as in 1962. Population of the county is given as 50, 021, as reported in this newspaper some time ago, along with municipal totals. "I am not including any figures where a grant in lieu of taxes has been made," Mr. Alexander explained, "as the clerk is required under Section 94, subsection 2, Ontario As- sessment Act, to add these to the equalization figures of the current year. " The C. M. M. C, housing project at Wingham has not been included in the equaliza- tion as some houses have been sold and a grant in lieu of taxes is being paid on the bal- ance. "The equalization commit- tee and myself will be making a two-day tour of the north half of the county and will be making comparisons of assess- ments. Next year it is proposed to tour the south half of the county."
