councillors We are holding down taxes better than regional areas and dont see any good reason for change said Warden Allan Glassford who is reeve of Tecumseth We have to protect the interests of our ratepayers Personally am as opposed as ever since we are getting along so well Reeve Ingram Amos of Medonte who is among mem bers mentioned as future warden prospect said he agreed with the warden Taxes are too high in regional administrations he com mented The reeve of Innisfil Bill Gib bins said municipalities and counties had done better than other levels of govemment in holding down expenditures This particularly ap lied to Simcoe County he sai referr ing to overall county levies for this year which were held down to last years figures former chairman of the finance and general govern ment committee Reeve Gib hins also has been prominently mentioned for warden and with the present chairman Reeve Morris Darby is con siderul leading prospect for the 1978 wardenship IIIIITIIR

change our opinion at all he commented Several county spokesmen referred to statistics quoted at the convention of Association of Municipalities of Ontario which showed that the average growth in property taxes this year was just over 10 per cent with municipalities requiring nine cent more and school boar 12 per cent Figures mentioned showed the average tax increase in Metro Toronto creation of Queens Park was 14 per cent or about $90 per taxpayer The average increase in regional government areas outside of Metro was to per cent or $52 Cities outside of regions were able to keep down their average increase to eight per cent or $39 and for smaller rural municipalities the economic record was even better rang ing between five and six per cent or from $15 to $16 increase These figures show clearly why we should continue to avoid government com mented Deputy Reeve McLean stating the municipal ad ministrations close to the peo ple concerned were more responsive to taxpayers Chairman of different county committees which studied restructuring proposals at various times during the past decade Reeve Earl Brandon of Goldwater said these showed it wouldnt be feasible for the county to make the change Our county administration is much better than most he said directing attention to the ayasyougo financial policy olIowed over the years There are not many which have been able to avoid deben ture debt like we have he said in support of his remarks Allistons Peter Cameron said the county faced dif ficulties at times with higher prices due to inflation but prais ed the excellent spirit of co operation Higher prices affect us the same as others he said men tioning the latest increase in gasoline prices as an example Reeve Darby as chairman of finance was asked his opinion about whether the county coun cil would be able to hold the tax line again next year It is dif ficult to say at this time he answered cautiously but added he was confident the members would strive to do so if it can be done on practical basis As former warden Edgar Currie of Nottawasaga who is now member of the Niagara Escarpment Commission said he was strong opponent of regional government when he headed the county council two years ago He felt events since vindicated his opinion Collingwood family gets extra $80000 TORONTO CPI The On tario Appeal Court has increas ed by $80800 an award to the family of Collingwoodarea farm wife who died in June 1973 in highway accident The court ruled that an earlier award of $59000 by the Ontario Supreme Court was not sufficient The lawyer for the estate of Pearl McQueen said the original award did not reflect Mrs McQueens role as mother housekeeper co manager of the farm and pro vider of theopportunity for her husband George to work off the farm Mrs McQueen 42 was killed when trans ort truck went out of contro on hill and struck the tractor she was driv ing The court was told Mrs Mc Queen helped her husband build one farm at

examiner Monday Sept 19 1977 Opposition is still strong municipalities in the county The cities of Barrie and Orillia cooperate in suburban roads and certain other services but are not represented on county council The county administers the city of Orillias welfare ser toward more centralimtion of vices for which the municipali powers Strong local govem ty is taxed Barrie administers ment should be maintained itsown welfare system he said stating this is the level closest to the people and often felt to be the most responsive LOCAL DECISIONS lot of citizens want to par ticipate in local
