Runners- OMB Reserves Decision On School Costs Appeal PORT HOPE Judgment was reserved this week by F. G. Blake, chairman of an On- tario Municipal Board hearing into distribution of municipal costs of secondary school edu-| eation in Durham County. | The hearing at the Port Hope town hall, dealt with an appeal from Port Hope and Hope Town- ship. The two municipalities were represented by solicitor G. M. Ross of Belleville. Mr. Ross was appealing the arbitration decision made by the municipal treasurers of Newcastle, Millbrook, Port Hope, Bowmanville, Hope Township, Darlington Township, Clarke Township and South Cavan Township. The town and the township are asking the province for a more equalized apportionment of education costs in relation to charges lé@vied against some area municipalities. For in- stance, if the province's market value system of assessment were used this would reduce Port Hope's share by about $55,000. | It was also suggested that the education cost could be| based, at least in part, on a oS and pupil basis. Dar- ington with an assessment of about $7,000,000 has about 11,000 pupils, while Hope, with an as- sessment of about $3,000,000 has less than 2,000 pupils. In his argument, educational grants being made upon the basis of the provincial equalized assessment would be a financial hardship for Port Hope and Hope Township giving | undue advantage to Darlington and Clarke Townships. Statistics were presented showing that the provincial equalized assessment for Dar- lington Township was 24.23 per cent while the counties equal- ized assessment was only 20.58 per cent. ALMOST IDENTICAL In comparison, it was point- ed out that for Port Hope the) provincial equalized assessment | gas almost identical with Dar- lington at 24.44 per cent, while | the county equalized assess- | ment instead of being compar- able with Darlington's utilized currently. Mr. Ross said by using the county equalized assessment system there was a loss to Port Mr. Ross} said the effect of the provincial) was | much higher at 28.93 per cent. | The county system is the one | Hope of $55,150. and a gain for Darlington Township of $44,801, and a gain for Clarke Township of $44,353. Mr. Ross said since the pro- vince chooses to make its equalization grants on a differ- ent basis from that of municipal assessment based on the county equalized assessment, this fac- tor should be considered in ar- Business Girl Curlers Hold Closing Contest WHITBY (Staff) -- Another successiui curiing stasvun closed Mar. 27, when the Whitby Busi- néss Girls' Curling Club com- pleted its activities.
