G. Jennings Phone 773-5892 The 2.2 mill increase for roads is in accord- ance with recommendations of the recent road needs study and of the township’s road committee which has had numerous complaints on the con- dition of some of the township roads. At several times, roads had to be closed to school buses and other traffic and it is felt that only heavy applications of gravel will rectify the sit- uation. High School costs have also increased 3.64 mills for residential and farm properties while public school costs are up 2.93 mills for this category. Total levy will be $501,906, compared to last year’s levy of $389,955. Commercial and industrial properties will be hit with an 11.04 mill rate increase. For services controlled by the township, road costs \will jump from 13.73 to 17 mills, ad- ministration from 5.98 to 7.31 and police from 5.49 to 7.29. King Township's 1968 budget will see a jump in the residential and farm mill rate of 10 mills, on top of a 5 mill increase last year. :ere In other business the trust- lees expressed concern over a em. recent fire behind the IGA and store in the village.

Mr. Clark said he was surprised the school would be approved at a price of $183,217 and then result in complaints over a $15,000 charge for water vital to the school and its projected 120 pupils. As an alternative it was sug- gested that the school could ar- range to use a much smaller ‘plastic pipe hookup but the ‘opinion of the village trustees was it would probably not be suitable in case of a fire. Mr. Clark said that “if they‘ are satisfied with a plastic pipe, and the other people involved are, then we’re satisfied. Our only concern is that it will be attached properly to our main.“ He also oomfnented on re- ports that some people might want to hook into the pipeline It was this latter decision that came up at last week’s meeting as the trustees bandied the subject about. This provoked the village ‘trustees somewhat with Mr. ‘Clark pointing out that the “cost quoted is certainly not too exhorbitant, We’re offering to provide a facility at a certain price and there is no call to scold us or state it‘s unjusti- fied.” King Correspondent general purpose roofn A father and son night was held at King City Secondary School to wind up the activities of local Scouts and Cubs for this season.
