It %was apparent f rom the views expressed bjyHe Iealth Ui representatives that thle operating of the Or- o)no swýimminig tank in its present condition %will ot be allowed aifter this summier season. There is noro ')Jinin aynesmd that improvements are neddat the tank and waanNtd.The tank, even in its present condition is a spimming centre for a great numnber during the smerand people from far and w vide as well as those of the area ma I se of this service.

To show how tese aspects ceaathe situations nmentioned, it is necassary to fiolte nmethod by whichi assessments are ar- rived, The assessor, makes two separate valuations on your prop. erty. One is the physical valuation. This is the size and character of the ]and and buildings. Thae construction ef the buildings are categorized, andathen he adds values of huilt in featues such as the type of floors, plmbing. heating and wviing.

Lt sounds ln theory Cike a sound practice, howvever in dleteriinlg the rentai factor for cap)ituilation, the assassor has adifct decision.
