are brojgl m lhon shortfalls elsewhere An industrial com lot levy of an acre has been proposed for Halton Councillors feel tax payers t be paying for new services that should fall to developers However ling says there is a big difference between Industrial land In South and North He notes en acre l much on land selling for 100 an acre or more in South but it another matter In the north where prices are 000 an Whiting suggests answer may be to have two levels of lot levies one for the south and a lower one for the north Industnial commcr ical property yields assessments to 3 times greater than res- dent ial property and tax dollars 4 8 to times greater than homes Whiting says In addition he notes an acre of industrial land produces about In investment and to new jobs Also in he soys each job created in a plant creates another jobs in hi service sector The bottom line cording to Whiting is If an area like Aclon wants jobs created and the tax base increased lax payers will have to foot the bill for new water and sewer services because developers Just won pay it up here But for each dollar invested in services the will get back many more In increased assessment and lax dollars
