council supports a special committee recommendation against Indus lot levies The special review committee established to look into the question of special charges against industrial developers voted last week to recommend against establishing the levies After the meeting chief trative officer Dennis Periin said the would do little to solve the regions ongoing revenue problems The proposal being studies was to charge new industrial developers an acre as a share the cost of providing regional vices to the land An alternative a five per cent surcharge on water and sewer bills to existing ind was also proposed and rejected Both suggestions met with vehement opposition from established industry developers and regional politicians on the committee Mr said has a severe prob lem in getting enough cash to meet the costs of its obligations Part of the trouble he said started when many new water produc lion and sewage treatment facilities were built for a wave of development which did not materialize That left the region with many facilities which are underused and highly in debt from debentures sold to pay for their const Municipalities he explained have few choices in financing the costs of new development Near limit Money can be borrowed through deben tures the costs can be collected directly from current taxpayers or developers can front end the entire cost and collect later from new developments Halton Is currently very near the max mum limit of debenture debt established by the Ontario Municipal Board so without lot levies is tocollect the money from existing taxpayers Now we will be looking at water and sewer rate increases at least in the teens for longer time than we had hoped Mr said The special committee recommendation will go to the administration and finance

decision Council approved the levies before the November municipal election but the new council shelved the plan pending the special committee review Developer arguments against the pro posal have centred on a specially commissioned consultant studying concluding the region a per acre profit from industrial land because it gains mare in taxes from such owners than it spends on services Milton Mayor Gord argued the charges saving industrial development is needed for a healthy economy and a special levy now would only hamper an ready crippled industry As one factor he noted if there arc not Jobs in a community the welfare require ment can be expected to rise and that comes right off property taxes Small cost Other studies carried out by the develop ment industry have concluded the cost to homeowner of new industrial development amounts to slightly more than Si 50 on their Hills Mayor Peter said that fact alone was enough to oppose a new charge It l just the development industry payer objecting to the cost of supporting ind us trial development People seem to think we re out of our skulls to be putting in something that go ing to put us in an uncompetitive position he added Mr noted Milton already hah a stiff industrial lot levy but we art review it and we may reduce it or do away with It Five years ago you could ask developers for the sky and get away with it but now the hole ball game has changed he said Suggestion reward A program to save money by rewarding regional employees who show creativity and initiative has been approved by Halton administration and finance committee Committee members agreed last week to endorse the plan put forward by chief ad minis trative officer Dennis Periin In his report to the committee Mr said the plan would cost a maximum of in the first year but suggestions in other areas have saved more than that The reward system has a way of making people think about improvements they wouldn normally make he told com members in outlining the plan The program if approved by regional council would be administered by a Suggestion Awards Committee and would start in the late fall of this year Any employee below supervisory rank would be eligible for an award under the scheme for suggestions which make better use of resources or reduce hazards on the Job for regional employees supervisory saying it aparfofthelrjob Mr said adding a program of cash awards was being suggested because we tried suggestion boxes before and found that unless we offer some reward we re not going to get anything worthwhile Awards in 1983 if approved would be paid out of surplus funds from the budget If there is no surplus money will be set aside in the 1964 budget The tram ulJim Manning Jimmy Clark tap lured
