county council it took the heart and soul out of pickering when highway 2a opened up said dr neil mcewen of pickering in county council thursday he was speaking in support of a deputation from the village which is asking a further 20 per cent cut in their assessment obsolescence rate dr mcewens contention was borne out by figures quoted by county assessor ralph wilson who said that whereas 8000 cars per day had been counted on the highway west of pickering in january 1947 now the count would be something close to 1500 per day he stated that he realized this change dur ing the past year had hit restaur ants and gasoline stations and that this would be taken into consider ation in future assessments cyril morley speaking for the deputation said we are quite in sympathy with the work of the assessor but we realize that some adjustments are necessary mr morley commented on the points in the petition thomas harding of the council said that he recognized pickering has a problem but that assessment is a countywide problem at the present reeve muir if we start now to create new ideas for the assessor it would be a miracle if we were able to satisfy everybody what some members of this council would have him do is assess by a ruleofthethumb as far as high way trade lost last summer is con cerned whitby is entitled to obsoj licence rates too instead of that the suggestion is that commercial i properties be raised and farms be lowered t d thomas we must realize i that this is an entirely new system of assessment and it is to be expected that some mistakes willi markham policy
