Cartwright Council In Busy Session Tues., 1 p.m., Apr. 6th The regular monthly meeting of Cartwright Township Council was held as usual in the Town- ship Hall with all members pre- sent. The Minutes of the past meeting were read and adopted on motion. The proposed Coun- cil Meeting Procedure By-Law was given first and second read- ing and changed in some small details. A suggestion to have twc regular monthly meetings ~ was defeated. This By-Law as it stands confirms the first Tuesday of each month as re- gular meeting date; deputations to Council are to be in order of appointment and after that in order of their appearance, and my be limited to ten minutes or a reasonable length of time to present their cases; also all requests or complaints must be presented in writing and signed, and No New Business may be introduced after hour of 11 p.m. The First deputation was Messrs. Dorrell & Wright rep- resenting the Board of Educa- tion, present, to discuss with Council the financing of the New Addition to the Central Public School. They stated that the Board of Education sug- gested a short term debenture issue, and the Council and the Board of Education had hoped to keep from this method of financing, prefering rather a short term bank loan. The lerk was authorized to make application to the Ontario Muni- cipal Board for formal approv- al. Closing date for Tenders for the said construction is April 20th 1965. The second deputation present was also by appointment, that of Mr. Clar- ence Savinac of Viewlake with Mr. Ord his solicitor of Fulton, McQuarrie, Hill & Ord of Lind- say, Ontario, : They notified the Council that a certain fence that had been constructed by Mr. Cap- stick of Viewlake and Lindsay obstructed free passage along a road allowance to Lake Scu- gog. Mr. Ord warned that Coun- cil would not want to get-in- voived in legal litigation; that it was rather a private matter. Council advised Mr. Savinac & Mr. Ord that the Township so- licitors would notify them of Council's position in this mat. ter. The third deputation present was Messrs. Miller & Radcliffe of the Volunteer Fire Depart- ment with regards to two mat- ters. The first, a replacement unit for the Water tanker. This was left to the Committee in charge, with one very suitable lead at hand, The other matter was the Fire Departments ob- jection to the Clerk's report of the last Council meeting, where the Council members orally chastized the Fire Department for not presenting their budget for 1965 as is required by By- NEW HOMES FOR OLD WITH SS rnttum Here is the amazing new siding which gives your home the beauty of real wood clapboard, the permanence of aluminum.

GORESKI ROOFING & LATHING LTD. 1664 SIMCOE ST. NORTH OSHAWA 1723-5731 -- OSHAWA, ONT. PORT PERRY 985-2751 Law, d According to the Clerk's re- port in the press, many people cersidered that the Fire Dept. had gone over their budget fi- nancially, which was far from the truth, having actually a sur- plus of $1,230.56 on hand at clos- ing of the books for the year. The Council and the ratepayers of Cartwright do appreciate the service the Volunteer Fire De- partment render, and the effi- ciency in which they operate; since having come under the municipal Corporation last sum- mer they are bound by certain rules that are written into the establishing By-Law which re- quires annual reporting and budgeting of the municipal funds supplied. Mr. Walter Pope Chartered Accountant and municipal audi- ter of Pope & Gobbelle for the Township presented the annual report and the 1964 Audit of Accounts. Taxes receivable are $40,531.97 which shows again a small increase in Taxes un- collected (Arrears), 1964 Ex- penditures amounted to $185,- 678.94 while receipts were $178,283.38 or an operating de- ficit of $7,395.56. However the 1963 surplus on hand was $7,963.67 which leaves a new surplus of $558:11. The year 1964 was the first time for many years, that the year's business was completed with- out having a Bank Loan out- standing at the end of the year, which shows the benefit of hav- ing a Reserve fund set up .to cover contingencies, years has put Cartwright in the position of being in one of the healthiest financial positions in the Province. This concluded all personal visitations, and Council then turned to the business tabled from former meetings--subject Rotary Mower which had been i Tendered in February and no decision reached, After a shont discussion, a motion accepting the lowest Tender that qualified according to specifications demanded, i.e. the New Holland Model 60 at $566.50.

Mr. Stewart Thompson was present and 'sat in the balance of the meeting by invitation, and suggested that something should be done regarding the flooded Boundary road. The subject of a Park at the nor- thern. end of the Boundary was discussed and now that Man- vers Twp. are no longer inter- ested, Council wondered if it were wise to continue or not, The subject of the new Annex Mr. Pope at this time men-|to the Ice Rink was discussed tioned that his annual fee which was established at $360.00 at the commencement of his ser- vices had never been revised, and that his original agreement hed only been for two years which was some time ago; he stoted that his audit time re- port which was based on Pro- vincial schedule of rates for auditors according to their qualifications by the time (hrs.) required to do the job & includ- ing travel amounted to $882.00 for the last year. After a short deliberation Council voted to in- crease 1966 Audit Fee to $625 and Mr. Pope declared his in- tention of remaining at their gervice, Council expressed to him their appreciation, not just for the job done but for his an- nual presentation and his ad- vise, which over the last few and Council mentioned that in- terior should Be cleaned and painted.
