The 1984 budget and mill rates were discussed at last Tues- day'ameeting of council. - The hike is due largely to la 45 per cent in- crease in the township's own spending this year which can be attributed* to $80,000 budgeted for 25 -acre gravel property, $15,000 for paving at Hurron Heights and ex- penditures for the new Wingham fire hall. This all comes in spite of a surplus of almost $27,000 in the 1983 budget which helped keep • the 1984 budget down somewhat. What this means in dollars and cents is that a public school supporter in the township with a farm and residential pro- perty assessed at $6,000 would pay $1,529 in property taxes in 1984. That is an increase of 240 from last year. A separate school supporter with property assessed at the same value would pay $1,533 --iii '84, an increase of $247 from last year or 19.2 per cent. However, farmers will receive a farm tax of 60 per cent on their 1984 property taxes, up 10 per cent from 1983, something which council members said they feel will help soften the blow. Councillor Fred Meier said he does not like to see tax increases at any time, but ad- ded perhaps this is the year to add these ex- tra expenditures since the farmers are get- ting back the extra 10 per cent in rebate. Reeve Neil Vincent echoed his sen- timents, saying the farmer who is collecting the rebate this year actually wil pay less in property taxes than in 1983. Those living in the hamlets of Belgrave, Button Heights, Whitechurch, Auburn and On residential properties throughout East Wawanosh will not be quite so lucky, however. The average public school supporter with a residential property assessed at $2,500 would pay $647 in property taxes this year, an increase of $110 from last year and that is not subject to any government rebates. East Wawanosh will collect $206,027 for township purposes in 1984, up 45.6 per cent from last year. • Township ratepayers will be expected to pay out $80,050 to the county this year which is an increase of 14.55 per cent from 1983.
