The council session on Wednesday was no exception with a heated debate arising from the pre- sentation of the second report of the Standing Committee on Assessment and taxation. Leading the attacking force, in opposition to the report was Mrs. Jean McPherson, deputy- reeve of Pickering Township. Mrs. McPherson questioned the committee on the exact cost of assessing Pickering Township. The committee report revealed! a cost of $41,773.40 but, Mrs.; McPherson charged the cost was! reported to be in the neighbor-) hood of $71,773.40. $30,000 ADDITIONAL The deputy-reeve complained she had been told of the addi- tional $30,000 during a township| report council meeting attended by the/actually be $5,600.

He said Whitby had an excellent assessment service and were opposed to the county assessment for this reason. Brooks further explained, Whit- by representatives could see no county assessment for any mu- nicipality in the county, a sec- ond reason for their opposition. "Taxpayers pay their taxes at the municipal offices and they have a right to check the as- sessment picture on their prop- erty within minutes not days or weeks as is the case where the county system is in_ force," Brooks stated.
