Village to pay
Cummings
assessment
By Janice Becker
Citizen staff
The issue of property assessment
for a municipal drain split the ranks
of Blyth council during discussion,
June 1.
Councillor Rob Lawrie brought
the concerns of ratepayers assessed
into the Cummings Drain before
council, stating that those property
owners should not be asked to pay
the assessment.
Using the installation of other
drains within the municipality as an
example, Lawrie said individual
property owners are not assessed,
but every village taxpayer pays part
of the cost in their taxes.
±'Why should they be assessed for
this drain when they helped pay for
all the others in the village."
However, as explained by Clerk-
Treasurer John Stewart, the Cum-
mings Drain is a different situation
because it is a municipal drain,
constructed under the Drainage Act
instead of a local improvement as
urban drains are classified.
In rural municipalities, all prop-
erty deemed to drain into the water-
shed of a drain are assessed into the
construction and maintenance of
the drain.
In villages, the cost is usually
shared amongst ratepayers as it is
generally only surface water.
Though the Cummings Drain is
under the Drainage Act, several
properties in Blyth drain into the
watershed and were assessed by the
engineer.
Councillor Murray Nesbitt
agreed with the individual assess-
ments, saying those benefitting
from the drain should help pay for
it.
Both Stewart and Nesbitt
expressed concern that by approv-
ing a resolution which would result
in the village paying the $8,695
assessment, a precedent might be
set for future drain construction or
maintenance.
The total bill for the village
would be $59,447, including vil-
lage and private property assess-
ments, on a $90,000 contract, said
Stewart.
Nesbitt said, "This might be an
ideal time to set the precedent for
ratepayers to contribute to the cost
of new drains. I would like to have
a nice new drain."
Lawrie said all village residents
should be treated equally as none
had been asked to pay in the past.
Councillor Jeff Howson said he
had no problem agreeing to the vil-
lage paying the levy as long as a
precedent was not set.
A motion passed which approved
the village payment, though stating
that this is not a precedent setting
case and that all future matters will
be dealt with individually.
Nesbitt voted against the motion.
