A.. •.clift, ehahrnen, H. II, Orglend .and Fred Watson) with ;their Ptetietiee which could not be refuted, this time it leaks as if the movement will surmount any berrierel The 'Permanent populetien of the Police Village :of Bayfield is 05 epee; on the adjoining lands to the south 33 and to the north 8, snaking a total .of 486, The popula- tion. this area is on the increase with families taking up residence, There ..are 252 signatures Of permanent resi, dents within the .present boundaries. on the petition, With 271 adult inhabitants eligible to vote, Lucy learned. To date 93 percent of police village residents have signed the petition to incorperete as a nignieipality. It is expected to be- 95 percent • by the time the petition is forwarded this week — wouldn't it have, been "a star in Be.yfield's crown" so '(to speak, if it could have been 1QQ .peeceet just once? • •Over 80 percent of residents within the prophsed projected 'boundaries to the south, end over 80 percent to the north have signed the petition to the Ontario Municipal All this has meant a great deal of • running around and downright hard work for some; to say nothing of the time spent in this effort. One day last week Brigadier Clift and H. H, Ormond_ tramped off the tentative boundaries of the municipality by compass -bearing. Commencing at the lake at a point in line with Heard's sideroad the projected boundary would follow it East to J. McDonald's sideroad; then it would go north' to the Bayfield Concession Road, through between lot e and 9 through Range E to A at the river; west down midstream one-half mile and north up the middle of lot 4 on the old Pioneer "road to Goderich (used ••ili the days of the river ford and the first bridge); West again at the sideroad which joins the lake between the Deer Park Lodge and Jowett area cottages. Being an engineer, Mr. Ormond stepped the center of the river on stones. He slipped 'and finished the rest of the hike wet to his knees. Working very hard in the village obtaining signa- tures were three women; Mrs. George Hopson with her usual energy obtained 80 signatures. Mrs. T. C. Bailey by no means as young as she used to be, but still, civic minded, was active (she was Bayfielers only woman trustee when she served on the Board in 1934. She was on the school board for nine years, being a memlig• when the new school was built, and she also was on the Library Board for some years), Miss Ruth E. Hayman was• very active in obtaining signatures and co-ordinated those in the village. Adam Flowers, Len B.. Smith, Alf. Scotchmer, Lloyd Makins did a good deal of running around the outlying parts as did J. E. Hovey and Russell Kerr in obtaining out-of-town signatures. The tremendous enthusiasm of summer residpits was most encouraging. Jack Tillmann and Allan Aylesworth were successful in getting 90 percent of cottage owners in London signed up in two weeks. Frank Peter signed up the Stratford folk. Miss Jessie L. Metcalf organized and obtained sig- natures of the Detroit group of property owners here. Amongst summer 'residents there were 250 signatures on 220 properties — husband and wife are eligible in most cases. This is approximately two-thirds of summer res- idents with many not contacted through their absence from. home. • Behind this movement, too, is the Bayfield Rate- payers Association, a voluntary organization 400 members strong. This represents about two-thirds of all ratepayers. The executive met on April 17 at the home of Kenneth Mackie, secretary. This first meeting was concerned mainly with obtaining signatures on the petitions and drive for membership. It also struck its committees. At the second meeting on May 8, held at the home of Brigadier Clift the committees were filled up and pro- jects for the future discussed, On Monday evening, May 5, Brigadier F. A. CM, chairman of the Bayfield, Ratepayers Association accomp- anied F. E. McFadden (chairman) and LeRoy Poth of the ' Trustee Board for the Police Village of Bayfield to Stanley Township Council meeting. The Trustees had previously notified council that they wished to discuss the question of grants. In due time Reeve E. Talbot invited the Bayfield delegation to sit in with the council when F. E. McFadden presented the tollewing petition: "The Board of Trustees of the Police Village of Bayfield, petition the Council of Stanley Township to credit the Police Village account in full for all grants and sub, sidles received for the year 1964 from the Provincial Govern- ment in respect of road work done in the Police' Village of Bayfield. This petition is presented in the light of the follow- ing information: (a) Although the Munitipal Act does not expressly provide for such procedure it is understood that the De- partment of Highways approves of this practice. (lb) It is understood that the majority of police villages in the Province of Ontario are receiving rebate of such grants in whole or in part. • (c) Procedures are now in effect ;to record fully any road work done in Bayfield in 1964. (d) Because of the geographical position of Bayfield and the very limited use made of township roads, it is felt that rebate of provincial grants in full is equitable. Your attention is drawn to a. copy of a letter signed by the director of Municipal Accounting and Auditing who has 'authorized such use of his letter. This copy is attached. Signed: The Board of Trustees of the Police Village of Bayfield. F. E. McFadden, chairman. The Stanley Township council discussed the petition for a while and then tabled it 'for further consideration. When the petitions are completed and forwarded to the Ontario Municipal Board, a- date will be set for a hearing. It. is hoped that this will be in Bayfield the end of June, P.S. CORRECTION: Lest any reader who went along with Lucy on the eour shown by Mr. and Mrs. Stewart Middleton in last week's issue, imagine the Vieglund tures at Oslo, Norway, occupying '200 acres, this should have read "20 acres".
