Village Clerk Bob Heil told Council the Board's assessment for Hensall is 27 percent higher than last year. "Our assessment last year was $92,611. This kt ar it's $107,617" Mr. Heil said. He said this would mean a tax • increase Of "14 or 15 mills just • for schools." Councillor,, Paul Neilands expressed indignation at the large increase in the Board's budget. " They've gone way out of sight again this year" he said. "We've got no control over what they spend. They just spend the money then send us the bill for it." Reeve Harold Knight said even a small increase in Council budget next year, when coupled with the education tax levy, could mean an increase of up to 20 mills in taxes for village residents. In other business at the meeting, Council approved a budget of $29,511.93 for the Hensall Parks Board. Of this amount $10,757.96 is to be granted by the municipality, Councillor Neilands said the budget represented' no in- crase over that of last year. Council voted to send a letter to the ministry of the environment and to the ministry of transportation and communication, asking that the government look into the need for resurfacing both Highway 4 and 84 in the village. Council felt both roads had been neglected, and were badly in need of repair. Gary Robinson, of Aylmer, has been granted permission Adrian Bayley, of Bayley Brothers Limited, was -present at the meeting to ask Council's approval for an office trailer to' be placed on the west -side of the Agripress building. Reeve Knight told Mr. Bayley the Village must conform to the regulation of the Huron County Plan, whic,h says that mobile homes may only be placed in designated trailer parks. After lengthy. discussion Council apptoved a motion allowing Mr. Bayley to pace the trailer beside his building temporarily, ap- proval being granted until January 1, 1978. to clean storm sewer catch basins in the village using a vacuum truck, at a cost not to exceed $40 per hour. Council again raised the question of by-law en- forcement for the village. Councillor Harry Klungel suggested that if a third man was necessary when the new arena is completed, he could be hired with the un- derstanding that his duties would include by-law en- forcement. No action was taken on the suggestion. Building permits were approved for the Hensal Medical Centre, Wayne Smith, Pat O'Brien and Lorne Gackstetter. Jeff Carroll, of Bayley Brothers, is to send a letter advising council for his proposed use of the stage area of the Town Hall. Arena fund raising corn- mittee member Harry Klungel told council a can- vass of local businessmen is to begin this week. • Accounts in the amount of $13,354.06 were approved for payment at the Monday meeting. • The next regular meeting of 'council will be Monday, May 9. .51,1PEICCYCLE '77 THE BIKE YOU WANT IS HERE! 4iciph,,a,,, k. 4— . /tit 41 250 1977 SUPER CYCLES IN STOCK Foldups Trainers Highrisers Mopeds Tricycles - Tour Bikes 3 Speeds 5 Speeds 10 Speeds Racing Bikes Ask for BILL MARTIN Our Bike Man Canadian Tire - Your Cycling Headquarters See our complete stock of parts and accesories Etinnolpn TIRE Extra Savings on all parts — Cosh Bonus Coupons ‘t* LS. 0- ( 1 E 'CuLt F.
