Ratepayers’ Ass'n
Still Curious In |
__ Regard to Matter

| A letter from the Prince Rupert
|Ratepayers’ Association seeking
‘further information in regard to
the transfer of lots’ at the corner
lof Third Avenue and McBride
/Street by th city to the Rotary|
Club for use as a gymnasium site
was read at last. night’s council
The city solicitor had already re- |
plied to a previous inquiry of the!
Association explaining that the}
|price paid for the property by the|
{Rotary Club had been $3,000. The}
assessed value was $9,000. The pro-|
perty would become taxable in five,
years’ time as the title would not}
be registered until that time had
expired by the Rotary Club trus-
tees. The reply of the city solicitor
further pointed out that the
had adopted no set policy with
respect to disposal of tax
As the council could
where any further informatici
could be given than was already
“conveyed in the city solicitor’s let-

WOULD WORK
QUT TAXES

City Council to See What Can Be
Done About Saving Homes
From Tax Sale

 

 

A letter from James Postulo, read
lat last night’s meeting of the city
| council, contained a request that he
(Mr. Postulo) be given a chance to
do some work for the city in order

would lose his property.

Ald. Casey expressed the opinion
‘that the city should make some ar-
rangement, if possible, whereby
{those facing the prospect of
|having their homes sold out for

 

 

| taxes this year be given the oppor-
jtunity to work out the taxes. He!
lsuggested that the finance com-
| mittee ascertain just how much}
| would be required and the banker}
linterviewed with a view to having}
a special fund established for this
purpose

| Ald. Black referred to the fact |
}that Vancouver city was moving
along the line of requesting special
legislation whereby principal and
interest on back taxes would be
consolidated and those who are be-
hind be given the chance to pay up
in installments over a number of
years. This, he thought, would be
beneficial here and he suggested
that representations might be made
along this line

| Ald. Rudderham inquired if tax)
sale proceedings could not be set
aside for one year but was informed
by City Solicitor Jones that this
could not be done under the present
act,

A motion by Ald. Casey and Ald.
Rudderham that the matter be re-
ferred to the finance committee for
report was adopted

City Council Receives Letter From)
Local Firm Following Diseus-
sion of Pwo Weeks Age.
A letter,rda@ at last night's
meeting of the city council. “from
D. McLeod & Son expressed” fe-
sentment \at\remarks mafle ‘at the
council meeting two weeks Ago
in régard to a pair of shoes &up-
plied by this .edncem: to: the ‘tity
under the rélief plan
The letter explained that the
shoes in question had heén pur-!
thased from a yeputable firm. is}
the East and hac cost $3.85 landed|
here, being sold to the city for $4./
If there was any defect in the
hoe, it was through no fault of
the local firm which explained it
had purchased these shoes in good
faith. The communication express-
ed the opinion that it might have
been better had the complaint not
been brought up in the manner it
had with the attendant publicity!
which hac only tended to injure
the business of the firm concerned
Such an individual defect might be!
found in any large lot of shoes.
After Ald. Casey, who had been |
the chief critic of the shoes in
question, had admitted that no one
ould expect either the
cial government or the city to
supply a high-class shoe to meet
the present situation, the letter
was filed |
Mayor Orme disaltiuseg Ald. Mac-|
donald’s mind of a report which]
| had been current that the city was|
|}buying shoes for $4 and selling |
{them to the relief workers for $5.)
