Region aims at 1.4% rate hike Halton taxes could increase by $10 By BRAD REAUME Special to the Beaver :otal tax and rate increases Ii should come to 1.4 per cent or about $9.70 for the averâ€" age Halton residence, according to the 284â€"page, 1994 proposed regional budget. After all the general information on Halton‘s 1994 budget had been ‘presented and councillors on the budget review committee had finâ€" ished complaining about the proâ€" cess, Joe Rinaldo, regional comâ€" missioner of finance, explained some of the details Monday. Rinaldo pointed to a cutback in provincial grants, little growth in property tax assessment and an estimated decrease in water conâ€" sumption as factors cutting into regional coffers. From the original 1993 budget, prior to changes made due to the ‘The province is nowhere near costâ€"cutting objectives. They are looking to find indirect ways of cost cutting.‘ Joe Rinaldo social contract, proposed 1994 spending is almost $10 million less, or 4.7 per cent of 1993‘s roughly $200 million dollar budâ€" get. A large part of the decrease, more than $4 million, comes from a cutback in provincial grants.

Mr. Rinaldo explained that it was feared large increases in water rates for high end industrial users might drive business and jobs from the region. "We have experienced a conâ€" sumption decline in residential and commercial water use," said Rinaldo. "It‘s not unusual in a recession as some water intensive industries close down but our staff have identified a trend toward conâ€" servation among our smaller conâ€" sumers." Regarding cutbacks in provinâ€" cial funding to the Allendale senior‘s centre in Milton, Rinaldo raised the spectre of a second tier of Social Contract cuts.
