18 THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, York County Council Friday afternoon rejected a county- wide assessment set-up. Al- though a vote of council did favor county assessment, pro- vincial legislation requires un- mimous consent of all council members. A county assessor may still be appointed by the councils of the individual municipalities. In a report to county council. the assessment committee sug- gested a c‘ounty-wide assessment organization would make more uniform assessment possible. A staff of about 21 assessors Ind six office workers would be necessary for a county assess-‘ ment office, the report indi-‘ cated. Main administrative offi- ces for county assessment would be located in Newmarket. with branch offices in the south and north. Estimated cost of county ad- ministration of assessment would be $173,400 compared with ‘a total cost of $175,862 under the present municipal administra- tion. Assessment personnel under the 14 municipalities in the county includes 20 full-time assessors, four part-time and six lull-time clerks, ‘ Reject Proposal For County-Wide Assessment Planl County assessment has been under discussion by council for tome time. “Flowers For All Occasions" Phones TU. 4-1812 AV. 5-1812 AT ALL HOURS RICHMOND HEIGHTSi CENTRE I We Deliver i Toronto & Surrounding!
