the assessment of 26380 on the Orono Seniors
Lodge with taxes of $8,100 as compared to $22,000
for Parkview. The executive had been advised that
the difference in assessment is due to Parkview's
classification as a high-rise for providing profit
on an investment. He asked for Council's support
in having the classification changed to 'non-profit'
housing in order to avoid a large increase in rents
for the apartments.
Mrs. Bonita Cunningham presented a brief, outlining
her experiences investigating Group Homes and residential
care. She questioned the definition of 'Group Homes'
in the Town's By-laws, and the manner in which the
Province supervised and monitored the regulations.
She gave a summary of the information she had gathered
and the sources from which it had been received. She
asked Council to evaluate the situation thoroughly
and not endorse the program any further until they have
implemented policies which would safeguard the present
and future inhabitants of the municipality.
Resolution #C-412-82
Moved by Councillor Hamre, seconded by Councillor Hubbard
THAT the correspondence to be received for information
be approved.
