Mayor John J. Cluff pre- sided. Present were Reeve John F. Daly, Councillors J. E. Keating, F. .Sills, I. Hudson, R. G. Parke, M. A, Reid. Minutes of 'the last meeting were adopted. The property committee reported the sale of lots in the Jarvis survey to C. H. Addicott and Jack ,Glew. Council confirmed the sale at $10 per lot. The auditor's report for 1945 was received by council. An application was read from Mr. Reg. Kerslake to erect a garage on his property on Jarvis street, esti- mated to cost $300. Mr. L. J. •Sorrenti applied for permission to convert his property, the former Davidson house at the corner of West William and Goder- ich streets, into a duplex, estimated cost $1500. Mr. Sorrenti is an em- ployee of Seaforth Motors. Mr. C. H. Addicott applied for permission to -repair or build a foundation under_two houses on Market street, also to move a small house from Winthrop into town. Permission granted to J. F. Daly to use street to mix cement for repairing Shineu store. A communication was read from the County Clerk regarding lists of servicemen who had served in the two wars. These names will be placed inside the .entrance to the new court house at Goderich. A com- mittee of Councillors Keating and Sills was named to consult with the Legion in compiling these lists. It was stated that it would be two years before the new court house could be built. Some regret was ex- pressed xpressed that the old court house will be removed. Mr. Basil Duncan, president of the Seaforth Legion branch, addressed council concerning the new legion memorial hall, asking council to con- firm previous agreements, canvass dk ing for moral support in for funds which is to commence this month. Mr. Feagan spoke to council on behalf of the committee in charge of the big plowing match to be held at Port Albert in October. The Gov- ernor-General is to be present, also a number of government members. He also requested support for the local events, by attendance at the match, and encouraging contestants to take part in the competitions.. After discussion council left the matter over until next meeting, when information may be available on donations made by other urban municipalities. In 1942 the town had granted $250 to the match which was to have been held at Constance. Owing to war conditions the match. was not held and the grant was withdrawn. The striking of the 1946 tax rate which had been laid over from the July meeting created much discus- sion. Hope of a substantially lower rate on the higher assessment faded as council considered probable de-' mends during the balance of the year. Besides an extra mill for high school, grants to the hospital and plowing match, side walks, tile and other expenses required an extra 1.5 mills, and the general rate was! set at 21.2 mills. The tax rate for the Town of Sea- forth for 1946 will be as follows: High school, 4 mills, separate school 8.5 mills, public school 6 mills, library. 1,3 mills, county 5 mills, general 21.2 mills.
