Former warden calls for taxspending cuts COULSON Staff Every level of government has to do its part if substantial tax in creases are to be avoided Dalton Jermey former war den said here in deploring rising tax spending trends of recent years Proposed new assessments on todays inflated valuations will result in even higher taxes unless needed curbs are followed To hold down tax spending to 10 per cent in creases is political argument which simply isnt good enough he said criticizing what he termed irresponsible economic policies The 1964 county warden who is chaiman of Medontes plan ning board commended the county council and his own township for not raising their share of taxes this year But the county school board is spen ding too much without giving taxpayers value for their money he said commenting on the substantial rises in school taxes since the county administration replaced local and area boards through provincial legislation seven years ago FILING lP DEBT It just isnt sensible to keep piling up public debt he said criticizing deficit financing at provincial and federal levels At todays heavy interest rates it is getting more and more costly for taxpayers It just cant go on indefinitely without serious repercussions All you have to do is look at past records Mr Jermey said he wasnt impressed with the 15 proposed tax reform measures although he conceded that the plight of farmers should be of prime con cern But so should those paying house taxes he said stating that if the new assessment is to be based on even half todays valuation it will mean more tax boosts As said before we need more plain common sense in tax spending he said deploring what he termed wast ful spending It is getting beyond reasonable levels and its high time for seriOUs thought about where we are heading Instead of tax reforms calculated to raise more taxes there should be cutting back on realistic basis What we need is genuine restraint not just mere talk about it to cover spending increases he said After all governments are spending taxpayers money and the taxpayers should be their prime concern ENTRII7TION Overgovernment high taxation and exoanding bureaucracy were criticized by the former warden who said these were largely to blame for much of todays economic ills There has been too much centralization of powers for scr viccs which could best be han died at ilic local level he said stating the present trend should be reversed lpdaiing the county system should be along the lines of im piowng lltts and holding down taxes for ratepayers In an era of inflation this is dif ficult but it should be the goal High taxation has played greater part in todays inflation than many seem to realize he said Referring further to the coun ty administration Mr Icrmey said it had followed the right policy in its consistent op position to regional government inch he said could only mean tax lnltiigtt It should be realized there are limits to what ratepayers can pay he said stating he felt this was bettcr understood at the county and municipal levels oi govcrnmcni closest to the people wcilrknown Medonte cattle farmer most of his life Mr Jer mcy formerly served over 20 years on Medonte council and has been head of the planning board for some six years He also is member of the Barrie surburban roads commission In his youth he was prominent athlete at
