is due in part to the purchase of a new police
cruiser.
Interim financing also took a jump this
year, prom $24,639 budgeted in 1984, to
$39,000 in 1985. This money is earmarked for
town hall and library complex financing.
Debentures will be issued in 1986.
The expenditure side of the budget also
showed notable decreases. Library costs,
budgeted at $31,840 in 1984 are estimated to
cost only $19,000 this year. Last year the
town was forced to pay rent on temporary
quarters for the library, as well as operating
costs on the train building. This year the
rental costs have been deleted and it' is
estimated that the newly renovated library
will be more cost efficient.
Debentures on the fire hall were ),aid in
full in 1984, marking an absence of a $5,500
expenditure for the town.
A substantial decrease was also e- dent in
the sanitary sewer system. This yea' $10,000
has been set aside to complete smoke
testing work on the system, but this figure is
R:eatly reduced from the 1984 budget of
$45,000. Last, year costs included $23,000 for
a liquid alwn tank and the sewage treat-
ment plant and financing for a detailed
report done on the plant by the engineering
firm of Burns Ross and Associates.
The expenditure list also includes $9,300
for the purchase of land on Raglan Street for
sewage work; $5,800 for the purchase of
chairs for the town hall auditorium; $3,000
for the newly formed Sloman School Car Ad-
visory Committee, which includes a $500
donation.
The budget includes levies set by the
County of Huron and local education boards.
These, Mayor Archibald noted, "are beyond
our control."
The County of Huron levy is $126,442, coin -
pared to $120,053 in 1984. Education costs
are: public school, $298,876 $283,517 in
1984); secondary school, $259,039 ($242,780
in '84); separate school, $20,256 ($16,748 in
1984).
The revenue side of the budget showed
funding for Ontario Neighbourhood Im-
provement work, including $3,500 from the
Optimist Club for the development of a ball
pork; $32,250 from the PUC and $58,333 front
the province. Work includes street lighting,
sidewalks, arena repairs. the ball diamond
and waterrnains, of which ONIP grant
covers half the costs.
Revenues in 1985 also show a grant of
$15,887 approved for the Clinton Town Hall
tares
Auditorium. Application for this Communi-
ty Recreation Centres Act grant was made
two years ago. Approval came last week.
In connection with the renpvation work
an additional grant of $5,186 was made
available through the Off -Oil program. Clin-
ton had already received more than $12,000
from this grant program to convert heating
systems.
For the Clinton taxpayers, the $2,231,592
budget means increases in the money paid
at tax time.
Public school residential supporters
payments will be based on a mill rate total
of 339.533 ( 319.407 in 1984) and for separate
school residential supporters the rate will be
340.333 (319.342 in 1984 I.

His talents range from paper work to making a delicious breakfast. Jack McLachlan,
Tuckersmith Township Clerk, was on hand to help out with the fly -in breakfast held at
Harvey Dale's on June 16. The weatherman was not co-operative in letting the planes
make the journey, but local residents braved the elements to enjoy the meal, held in con-
junction with the Tuckersmith Sesquicentennial events. ( Arne Narejko photo(
