A County council supports education tax equalization �BY SHIRLEY J: KELLER "I believe the Federation of Agriculture would like to see the education tax taken off property and put onto' income tax," stated Alexa McGregor, chairman of the • Huron County Development Committee Friday at the June session of county ,,,,,cou'ncil. "That's what they mean by equalization of education taxes." McGregor wa speaking to a' recommendatipn of his committee to comply with /the Huron li of A's request for' support in their bid to equalize. education qualize- education taxation. Some members of council had question the methods by which theSederation had hoped .:. to achieve equalization. Committee Chairman McGregor said it was his understanding'. that if education Township, challenged that estimate and said it was his understanding the additional cost to• income tax could run as high as 25 percent. This view was supported by some other members of council. Reeve Derry Boyle, Exeter, warned council that once the Q.ntarik government would take over the full payments for education, the „people in the municipalities would have nothing to say about education in their own areas. However, council did approve the Federation's request for support in 'the matte& of education tax equalization. In other business, • it was learned that the office of the county development officer, Spence Cummings would be located to 'the court house in conjunction with the Planning Department.
