Blyth council decided to look into the new billing procedure after receiving a letter from the ministry at their Jan. 5 meeting. Theletterrevealed the village would be receiving a 27 per cent rate increase because the ministry over estimated the sewage system volume flow: This led to a change in the billing procedure that will see the village charged $6,554.67 a month. In the past, the village has been charged on a volume basis, with monthly costs ranging between $2,200 and $3,000. ' According to ministry spokesman Dan Atkinson, theministry over estimated the - volume flow resulting in a lower revenue generated and causing the ministry deficit to increase. The ministry's deficit, ac- cumulated from Nov. 1, 1981, is $65,307. Mr. Atkinson said that the ministry forecasted flows and service revenues for the sewage plant had been over estimated since the plant's inception in 1981. In 1981-82, the ministry forecasted that the sewage plant would make $30,000 in service revenue. Their forecast was based on only one quarter of operation and the actual revenue generated was $4,246. In 1983, the ministry forecasted revenue at $35,757. The actual revenue was $21,293. In 1981-82, .they estimated that 15,800,000 gallons of sewage would flow and the actual figure was- only $2,225,000.

MILL LTD. 482-9219 WALTON FEED MILL 887-6023 forecasted flow was 18,800,000 gallons and the actual amount was 11,195,000 gallons. Council's reaction to the increased rate was one mixed with surprise and anger. "All the way along the taxpayer is going to get hit. Someone has to put the brakes on," Councillor William Manning said of the ministry's new billing procedure. Blyth has built up a $50,000 surplus over the past one and a half years, allowing the village to soften the blow of the ministry's 27 per cent increase. During that time, the municipality has been collecting $6,300 a month and the ministry has collected only $3,000 of that a month. According to Clerk Larry Walsh, "the village surplus was built up because the ministry wasn't charging enough." He said the ministry "underestimated our operating costs." Council passed a motion asking other municipalities to review their sewage rate schedules and make inquiries regarding any major changes. Brussels was mentioned as .being in the same situation. If everything appears to be in order, council will agree to a five per cent increase in their rate charge to Blyth residents. Council will discuss the issue - at their February meeting.
