years county levy the final estimate of the sur plus was 238290 county commissioner clark reeve of markham township questioned the reason for the accumulation of this surplus over the five years he asked if the extra funds had been pro vided as a cushion for the time when the assets and lia bilities of the old county are settled to date no distribution of these assets and liabilities has been made with such exceptions as the sale of the park and cas properties proceeds from these sales were divided 85 to 15 with the continuing county re ceiving 15 percent county auditor boundy warn ed council ratio were maintained unty might find its 11 500 what it boils down to said mr boundy is that the county really doesnt have any current surplus if you go ahead and build the addition using money from the surplus funds you will find you must produce the money elsewhere when the final a 0l jul m inclusive leaders mr and mrs fred reid and tion of officers and annual meet- g jj on friends

commissioner pol lock reeve of north gwillim- bury township asked if the sur plus were used for the new buil ding program and the countys liabilities later exceeded its share of the assets would the county be permitted to deben ture for the payments if you had to find say 40000 to buy york manor you would have the right to debenture re plied county solicitor lucas if the omb found that the county would have to pay more than it had received from the distribu tion of assets and liabilities the sum required for the adjust ment might be debentured but if you get money for one asset and spend it you cant later de benture for another liability mr boundy has been trying to point out the danger of spend ing the countys portion of assets instead of keeping it in reserve in regard to liability items it is a unique situation add ed mr boundy as he explained that both he and mr lucas had discussed the problem many times the omb cant advise us this money is surplus arg ued warden armstrong reeve of woodbrldge at no time have we been asked to levy on county taxpayers for further liabilities this surplus was built up since the passing of bill 80 said reeve luck of newmarket are we going to continue to build it up for debts in the fu ture this surplus was accumu lated for a purpose said dep reeve kirk of vaughan twp and i dont feel it was to build an addition to the administra tion
