tax delinquents and a suggestion has been made that as town affairs are proper ly published and as unpaid taxes are town affairs council should be asked to agree to the publication of the names of those in heavy default with their taxes in fairness to the great majority who punctually pay their taxes and by so doing help maintain the towns economy In a neighboring and much larger municipality than Au rora it is reported that the out standing taxes do not exceed more than Need For ReAssessments Councillor Clarence Davis de serves congratulation on his sug gestion for a reassessment of the town Those who are familiar with the existing condition of assessments will endorse Mr Davis suggestion Councillor King said the reeve had express- opinion that this would be a bad year to earn- out reassess ments to which Mr Davis re plied that he did not agree with the reeve on that point Councillor King said further that he believed Air E R Good their former assessor had the right ideas on assessing but thought his methods were wrong Excursion Train Expectantly we waited on hearing more about the guarantee for the CNR and its proposed excursion train to be run from Toronto to Aurora on the morning of May But no sound came other than a remark from the mayor that a representative was in Aurora that day but he would not be coming to council Other than that like the burial of Sir John Moore not a sound was heard not a funeral note Other Notes Other notes on another theme were heard from Councillor J Murray They concerned the Senutovitch subdivision Mr Murray indicated that he had found a reservation in the plan that had been passed that was- NEWMARKET VETERANS nt there when the plan was okayed by council Just a little note small print that could mean a whale of a lot in the fu ture For the little note meant that one foot of land was re served by the owner of the sub division on a street feet wide which under the terms of agree ment remained the property of the town The onefoot reservation could if applied in practice pre vent the present or a future council from providing a water service to immediate properties except on terms acceptable to both parties Stall terms could prove extremely costly to the town The mayors comment was to the effect that the reser vation was equivalent to put ting a barbed wire fence around he subdivision Mr Murrays contention that the reservation was not in the original plan submitted to coun cil was supported by other mem bers of council The matter was passed on for investigation and town services held up until it was completed New Street Lighting Councillor Davis pressed for a decision on the proposed new street lighting He succeeded in getting action to the extent that an appropriate bylaw is to bo brought in at the next meeting of council We hail this as a great step forward in the inter ests of the business men and the town of Aurora DeputyReeve Murray spoke of the excellent hydro services enjoyed by the people of
