The chamber will receive $14,220, but the committee will consider at a future meeting whether to pay the remaining amount. The committee denied the Farmers' Market request for $150-- the waiving of food licence fees. Halton Region Health Department will also receive $398.81, equivalent to waiving of fees for the flu clinics. ··· Halton Hills council supported a City of Vaughan resolution calling on the provincial government to provide property tax relief to seniors by rebating either the education portion of the residential property taxes or a portion of the rental expenses. Councillor Joan Robson, who asked for the endorsement, said she has tried to get tax relief for seniors many times to no avail, "but one more try won't do any harm."
