The trio just Car completed a _ Basic Legal billto be shared A recent decision by Simcoe County Council means all county municipalities will be asked to contribute to payment of nearly $14,000 in costs of an Ontario Supreme Court hearing, which deter- mined that 18 of the county's municipalities had no right to hold referenda oon _ the Penetanguishene French high school issue. At last week's meeting, an original administration and finance committee report had suggested that the county pay for a bill which represented costs accrued by defendants of _ the referenda. A county solicitor's bill was to be paid by the 14 municipalities he'd represented. Following an Maintenance amendment by John Lackie, deputy-reeve of Tiny Township, that all legal costs be covered by the county, council agreed and it was decided to accept the report as amended. The ratio of payment will be based on the percentage of tax payed by each municipality to the county. For example, Midland pays about 5.85 per cent tax to the county and so will be responsible for 5.85 per cent share in legal fee costs of the court action. Other municipalities will be charged similarly; Penetang- uishene will pay about 2.71 per cent, Collingwood will pay about 6.4 per cent. Once the decision to have all county municipalities share the costs was made it was Tay Twp. updating job descriptions Township of Tay council has been working on terms of responsibilities for the township's roads superintendent and Tay's roads foreman. On Nov. 13 and again on Nov. 27 the matter was covered with further amendments planned to the roads superintendent's guidelines before the document is eventually approved. At its Nov. 27 meeting Tay councillors Spent some time in a committee of the whole to go over matters relating to Waubaushene water contracts. Later councillors met with a Mr. H. Fick who appeared on behalf of the Fesserton Heights Ratepayers Association. His presence was with respect to a letter from the Ministry of Housing requesting the township's decision on three deferral items in the approved official plan. Councillor David Walker indicated that a Mr. Ross of the Ministry of Housing had seemed to in- dicate that there would be no problem for the Township to resolve this deferral item for Fesserton Heights Ratepayers. Council decided if there is some information that the Municipality does not have that a meeting should be requested with the ministry.
