Meet To Discuss Truck Council opened truck tenders submitted by two local automo- bile dealers, but dissatisfied with the specifications submit- ted, voted to meet with the two men at a special meeting next Monday. Although this was the third time the specifications had been submitted, there were great differences in the type of truck offered by the two firms. However, mayor Miller point- ed out the two agencies would- 'n't manufacture identical trucks and the local firms pos- sibly couldn't submit prices on exactly what council wanted in the way of their proposed four- ton truck. "The old truck is running us into money," Agnew reported, "and we're sending good money after bad." Councillor Norman Livermore suggested the special meeting to meet with the two men so the issue could be settled and a new truck purchased as soon as possible, He suggested the councillors should not charge the meeting up as a special meeting, but rather give their time free. Agnew also reported he would be calling k^a meeting of the public works committee in the near future to determine what projects should be under- taken this year. "If we get an earlier start we may get all the work com- pleted," he stated. Pigs Will Be Moved Allan Elliot, chairman of the bylaw committee, reported he had met with Dr. Milady of the Huron County Health Unit to discuss the controversy con- cerning the raising of pigs in the south section of town. He reported that the veterin- arian had stated there was little council could do in re- gards to the situation as courts usually tossed out all cases con- cerning complaints of odors. He also pointed out the barn had been established before most of the houses in the area had been built. However, Elliot reported he understood the pigs would soon be moved and the situation would be cleaned up. Won't Test Alarm Council turned down a re- quest from Huron County that the town test the fire alarm and water hydrants at Huron- view to assure that all the equipment is in working order. Deputy-reeve John Sutter, a member of the Huronview com- mittee, pointed out the county should pay for any such serv- ices as the equipment was on private property. Reeve Morgan Agnew, anoth- er member of county council, agreed with Sutter and pointed. out 'this was an extra service' not covered in Clinton's fire agreement with the county for fire protection at the county home. "They should pay if they want our firemen to go out and make tests," he stated. Council also authorized the clerk to inform Frank Becker that the $6.00 per month fee on each trailer space at his court was payable whether the trailers were occupied or not. In the past, Becker has only paid the fee on those trailers which were occupied. However, several councillors pointed out the bylaw made no distinction and it should be en- forced. 0 CLINTON MEMBERS ON HURON EXECUTIVE Alan Ronnie, Queen Street, was elected president of the Huron District Credit Union Chapter at their meeting held in the Agricultural Board Room on Wednesday, February 6.

He is studying for his Mas- ter's Degree in Geology and has been awarded a $750 fel- lowship. Clinton council accepted the alternative suggested by Ivan Carter, a member of the public works crew, and accepted his resignation rather than giving him an increase in pay. Carter requested an increase of $500 per year and said that if it was not approved, the let- ter of request should be con- sidered his letter of resigna- tion. A member of the crew for close to a year; Carter pointed out the increased amount of work in snow removal had re- sulted:in long hours of over- time at night and also on Sun- days. On a yearly salary of $3,100, Carter was not given any extra remuneration for the extra work. However, reeve Morgan Ag- new, chairman of the commit- tee, pointed out "that an inves- tigation of the time sheets had shown that Carter had only worked three hours overtime in the past month. "He was doing alright," Ag- new contended. The reeve also reported that the men had been offered the opportunity of signing on at an hourly rate of pay basis but had declined because they would lose time if there was no work to be done.
