the budget is established Councillor Alan Ackman summed up the discussion explaining were not attacking the board but the system under which you have to operate The municipal division of the budget is by statute Superintendent Bruce went through three pages of calculations to explain how the complicated apportionment is established He also pointed out the township was benefitting this year from a mill rate subsidy amounting to 51643 The only other municipality to receive such a subsidy was which would receive Without the subsidy the township mill rate would have been increased a further seven

WILSON CA HUGHES CHIROPRACTIC RICHARD TELFORD DC Wellington St Acton formerly office For appointments 8532483 Saturdays Special appointments arranged The use of a provincial equalization factor in calculating the share the township contributes to education was challenged by Councillor The factor is established by the Department of Municipal Affairs and is based on spot checks and land sales to determine the percentage the assessment is to the market value In the percentage had been expected to rise after reassessment Instead it fell The result was that an on township ratepayers had to be picked up this year ratepayers will be asked to pay for education this year compared with 278131 last year Asked what could be done about the increased township levy Mr outlined the procedure for appealing the apportionment which involved a meeting of municipal treasurers for arbitration Reeve A MacArthur wondered why such a meeting could not be scheduled when it became obvious one municipality was to be hit prior to confirmation of the budget She suggested she would discuss this with the Minister of Education The Superintendent noted the apportionment had been calculated in accordance with the statutes and any appeal was up to the township The reeve suggested an appeal now would make other municipalities think the township was asking them to bail them out Were paying for the number of students we have at a real good price she observed Rural municipalities arc going to be destroyed over a period of time if this system is not changed It is unfair if rural municipalities arc going to have to pay more to educate their children than urban areas References were made to the cost of public school education in Milton at 328161 where there arc twice the students compared with Nassagaweyas cost at The Superintendent pointed out the determining factor was assessment not population Deputy Reeve Gordon concentrated his attack on education as a sacred cow and wondered how such excessive spending was justified The public can only stand so much He complained a lot of students cant even read or write properly now and with computers being introduced they may not even be able to figure He questioned the justification of increases every year Trustee Tom Watson noted the taxpayers complain about cost generally once a year and the remaining months ask for increased services The deputy reeve complained the board could spend per cent of its money in the south He was interrupted by the trustee who noted introduction of opportunity classes and savings in construction costs by use of neighboring urban schools which were benefitting Nassagawcya The deputy reeve later came back to the tost of issues of Education News Mr reported an issue cost about and three special issues had been produced on the budget this year to acquaint the public with the financing in view of last years criticism Four regular issues arc planned He noted a neighboring board had spent 515 on one issue of a publication The deputy reeve complained about a recent move to spend SI 000 to send nine teacher back to school Mr Lindley reviewed the Board had inherited several kinds of leave plans from previous boards it had to honor The polity of the board docs not endorse the type of plans that were in effect he pointed out Mr and Mrs Hugh Patterson and family are home after a holiday in Florida Neighbors and are sorry to learn Mr and Mrs Martin Ann and Carolyn R R Acton ore moving to Orangevillc Betty Cook who teaches at Brampton Sandra Sinclair of Acton and Barbara whos at Cooksvillc enjoyed a holiday in Florida Friends will be pleased to hear Mr Percy Woods Main St has returned home from General Hospital and is recovering nicely from his operation Some
