HOWICK TOWN BOARD
RATES FOR YEAR STRUCK A total rate of 2 l-10d in the pr>und lias been struck by the Howick Town Board, which held a special meeting to consider the rates for the coming year. Tho total rate last year was 1 7-8 d in the pound. The following rates were struck: General rate, ljd in the pound; hospital and charitable aid rate, l-sd; lighting, l-8d: Panmure-Huwick highway loan, 2-sd; Picton Street improvement loan, l-Bd. It was not necessary to strike a rate to cover the interest and sinking fund on the water supply loan, as it was expected that increased revenue would be sufficient to meet this year’s charges.
The clerk reported that last year a rebate of 5 per cent, on the general rate account was allowed if it was paid within 30 days of demand and T 650 was received during the period., It was decided to allow a similar concession this year.
