encouraging factor was a donation of 75000 by art latchum to put in artificial ice the money has been invested and is collecting interest while the town formulates plans for completing the area the project started when expansion of oaremont public school meant there would be no room for the rink on school property the lions then decided to replace the old boards and move them to the park and before they knew it were sponsoring a fundraising campaign to build the ice pad and change rooms the arena board has started house league hockey league and there are programs for adult girls and also broomball it is working out fantastic mr pilkey said all the kinds in town are supporting it and are really enthusiastic spending limit inriding york slmcoe candidate spending would be limited to

taxes change quite frequently and these are more changes this year than usual on income tax for example the tax on milk quotas now applied only to the difference between cost or vd value and the selling price another big one on livestock is that any part of a herd can now be added to income even though it isnt sold the income could be taxable but perhaps at a very low rate in a low income year the advantage is that part of the livestock then goes on capital inventory and would not be taxable at a later dispersal when rates would be high this system really serves the same purpose 100
