The rebates were suggested in view of the extra expense the installation of oversized sewers is costing the develop- ers. The sewers will serve more than just the subdivision areas. Markham Township Council agreed, May 20, to lower the lot fee requirements in two subdi- visions. Council adopted a report reâ€" commending fthat the $125 per lot be waived in the 414: lot Shields-Snow Subdivision near Holy Cross Cemetery, Langstaff and $300 per lot be waived at the Stone Farm Subdivision at Steeles and Bayview Avenues.

The new rates act out in the schedule below take effect on bills rend- ered on and after Aug. 1, 1969. RESIDENTIAL The average use of electricity by residential customers in 1968 was 755 K.W.H. per month. Under the new rates the charge for this quantity will be increased by $1.62 per month. Variations from the average will produce, naturally, different effects. All-Electric customers will now be billed at the preferred residential rates. The effect of this will be a comparable increase in cost for the domestic use of electricity and no change in the cost of heating. GENERAL SERVICE. Because of the wide variations in use patterns of customers in this class, the calculation of an average increase is of no real value. The adoption of a Large User Rate for customers with demands higher than 500 K.W. further complicates this sort of comparison, but it has been necessary in order to establish more equitable billing. RESIDENTIAL SERVICE PREFERRED RATE. RATE SCHEDULE. All rates are net. Gross rates are 5% higher. Increases in the cost of bulk power,â€" in interest rates, and in the cost of materials and wages before and after Vaughan Hydro was estab- lished, made it necessary to review, this year, the existing rates. A comprehensive study has been completed, in conjunction with Ontario Hydro, and has determined a need for an adjustment in rates, a n (1 some revisions to the rate stucture.
