Auditor addresses Morris council
MORRIS TOWNSHIP - Morris Township
a uditor Karl Lentz of Lucknow attended the
recent meeting of council to discuss the,. in-
crease in the 1984 auditing bill.
Council invited Mr. Lentz to the meeting
to discuss the $5,000 bill which is an increase
of $900 from 1983, and members wanted to
know why.
Mr. Lentz explained that the reason for
the increase Was not due to any problems
with the township's bookkeeping, but rather
to a new accounting system introduced by
the government this year which added the
extra work.
The cost of the actual audit was $4,350. Ad-
ded to that was a report for, the inflation
restraint board for another $350 and extra
work involved with the new tax form at $300,
for a grand total of $5,000.
Mr. Lentz said he absorbed some of the
cost himself. He said that unless there are
any other changes to the tax form next year,
the 1985 auditing bill should be around
$4,350.
All the other local municipalities have
reported increases in their audit bills 'as well
this year, reported Clerk -Treasurer Nancy
Michie. •
In other business, Morris will receive
$48,000 in supplementary subsidy this year
from the Ministry of Transportation and
Communications (MTC) of which -$38,000
will go toward the grader purchased in 1982
and $10•,000 toward repairs to the Blind Line
Bridge, just off Concession 1. • .
Township engineers,""Dawson and
Johnston Ltd. of Stratford, sent sample
tender forms to council forthe bridge pro-
ject. Connell approved the froms •and they
have been sent to the MTC )or approval. If,.
all goes well at the ministry level, council
hopes the tenders can be advertised soon.

crease of $84,801 from the Governmen of
Canada to the Village of Brussels was an-
neanced JAM 8. by the Honourable Bugenne
Al►l Lan, Minister of Agriculttje.
Whelan's announcement brings the total
contribution to the village for the
reconstruction of the Brussels Dam ' to
$345,000.
In making the announcement, Mr, Whelan
said, "the increase in federal support for
this project means that the taxpayers of the
Village of Brussels will not have to con-
tribute towards the cost of the dam
rehabilitation program."
"I am very pleased that the Government
of Canada is making this additional con-
tribution towards the rehabilitation of the •
Brussels Dam and I want to wish the Village
of Brussels and the Maitland Valley Con-
servation Authority all the best for a suc-
cessful project," added Mr. Whelan.
The grant was made possible through the
federal government's Job Stimulus Pro-
gram which is designed to create employ-
ment opportunities for Canadians.
