HELD VESTRY MEETING 5 The annual Vestry Meeting of Trim! ity church was held in the church on Monday evening. The various reports received showed that the Woman’s. Guild and the A. Y. P. A. were in a': particularly flourishing condition, and; that 1928 had been a good year. Thel meeting went into the matter of ways] and means to raise >unds for the var-; ious schemes of the church and it was resolved that this year there will be a canvass of the congregation to raise funds for the general and missionary ifunds. Considerable discussion took gplace that will doubtless be of much benefit during the coming year. The \following officers were elected: Wardens, J. Crutchley, F. Irwin; Lay Delegate to Synod, R. Burnett; Sides- men, T. G. Hutton, P. Lawrence, ' E. Hutton T. Tucker. Select Vestry, O. R. Mom-head, J. Kelly, Secy.-' McCrae having made herself a THE DURHAM CHRONICLE '.

Thebalance; of the pavement was to be properly drained with flush sewers, the whole to be taken care of by a sewer down the centre of the street which was to be so constructed that when the time came that Durham installed a proper sewage system there would be nothing to do but connect up with the stub sewers in front of each property. The Basis of Cost Mr. Proctor went into the different ways in which the pavement could be put down. If it were erected as a wholly municipal work the cost would be an extra tax rate of nine mills over the whole town. This, however, was a manner of laying pavement that had never yet been adopted by the , Ontario towns. The proper manner in his opinion and the one generally used L was under the local improvement plan. Under this plan a certain percentage of the cost was levied on the general , rate, the balance being paid for by . thOse whose properties were effected Ounder the frontage tax system. His lfirm had submitted a proposed sche- dule of charges as follows. be of concrete and ribbed for easier ‘c l A‘ wâ€"v 'â€" Those living adjacent to the 20-‘ foot strip would have to pay frontage tax of 23c.; in the 46-foot area it would be 53c.; the 30-foot area 43c., and in the 28-foot area 36%0. This meant that the owners of the property would pay a total of $27,650, while the rest of the town would pay through the general rate a total of $14,950. For the construction of the sewers, ,the property owners paid $7,800 and ithe town’s general rate $4,900. The ltotal increased taxation under this O.“--w‘ Should Commence Early l The speaker went into the matter of; early construction and said that if the; town was desirous of going ahéad this f; year with the work and wanted it? completed in early summer, say in‘ the month of July, an early start‘ should be made. There was no reason} why the sewers could not be laid this] winter. This would give the ground} ga chance to settle when the frost came? out in the spring and was much ahead of waiting until the breakâ€"up of winter and attempting to get the completed Iwork all finished up at once. There was quite a lot of prelimin- ary work to be done before any move could be made. The sewer plans would have to be taken up with the Provincial Health Department, the Government should be approached ‘4 A ---A-‘AA (Continued from page 1) pavement was ,to be of 6-: over on ,to the Durham Road the whole town would be 3 FAVOBED PAVING favor of improving our 'front street.: andifthisworkistobegoneahead with there are even fewer who will not admit that a permanent pavement is the only solution.
