Grand Bend council was Ad ,
wised by its solicitor, Iv endaY,,.
to take Action on the lands
situated east .of the Walker
d rain on the east side of the
village in view to Mere .ex•
.PATISlori in .the summer resort.
C. V, Lapghton, QC, :of Bell
and Laughton, Exeter, pointed
out that this was the only area
open for expansion in the .sUM-
tiler :resort and council would
be wise to take steps to ensure
that it could be subdivided in
an orderly fashion.
11.e. recommended that p sub-
division control he placed on
the lands so the owners would
have to secure proper plans
before they were able to sell
any lots off the properties,
"It could he out of control
before you know what happen-
ed," he warned coupeit„
The land is approximately 75
acres in area and belongs to
three different owners,
Consider road
Consideration of the lands on.
the east side of No, 21 highway
arose following a meeting held
with owners in the area to con-
sider the opening up of a road
running parallel to the high-
way.
Reeve Bill Sturdevant point-
ed out to the owners that
council was concerned about
the number of narrow roads al-
ready existing in the main
portion of the summer resort
and that they hoped to take
action to ensure that the same
thing would not happen in the
undeveloped area,
"We don't know what we
can or will do," he pointed out.
"We have only called this
meeting to find out your
opinions if a road could or
should go through there."
The persons mainly affected
by the road are the Hay Town-
ship Telephone System and the
Grand Bend Legion,
The telephone company has
already purchased a lot in the
area and plan to erect a build-
ing to house all the equipment
for their new dial system,
Secrete r y-treasurer Reg
Black, Zurich, pointed out that
they would co-operate with
council but would have to know
immediately if the road was to
be planned so their building
could be planned accordingly.
"This could alter our pre-
sent plans," he pointed out,
"as it could alter the direction
in which we place our build-
ing."
He said the building would
he erected in such a way that
future expansion would be put
on the rear of the building and
if a road was built later they
would face it so expansion
could take place away from
the road,
Black pointed out that their
present plans call for the build-
ing to face highway No, 21,
More frontage
Clayt Mathers and Buss
Clark, representing the Legion,
pointed out that a new road
would add 579 feet more front-
age on their property and if a
water line was ever built along
the road they would have to
pay substantial costs.
Sturdevant suggested that the
Legion's playground could be
set up as park area and in
this way the Legion could
avoid paying the large front-
age rates.

fire charges
At a special meeting in
Grand Bend, Wednesday, the
summer resort's council re-
quested a total of $800.00 per
year in fire retaining fees •from
three neighboring townships
and offered to purchase extra
equipment if their demands
are met,
The townships have also been
asked to agree to paying the
regular fees of the Grand Bend
firemen at a rate of $60,00 for
the first hour they are at a
fire and $35.00 for each addi-
tional hour,
The townships of Stephen and
Bosanquet have each been ask-
ed to pay $300.00 in retaining
fees and the township of Hay
has been asked to pay $200.00.
At present none of the three
townships pay retaining fees,
although subdivisions along the
lake in Stephen and Bosanquet
do, The Oakwood Protective
Association pays $75.00 per
year and Kingsmere and Maple
Grove subdivisions pay $32.00
each,
If Stephen enters into the
agreement, the retaining fees
of these three subdivisions
would he dropped, as would
the $75.00 from Beach '0 Pines
if Bosanquet agrees to Grand
Bend's request.
The only existing agreement
Grand Bend has is with Bosan-
quet which signed an agree-
ment in December to pay
$50.00 for each fire call answer-
ed by the Grand Bend depart-
ment.
Although Stephen has never
had an agreement with Grand
Bend, they have always honor-
ed bills presented for fire
calls.
Grand Bend council told the
representatives of the three
townships that they would pur-
chase a portable pumper to go
with the large fire truck if the
agreement was settled.
The pumper, v a I e d at
$380.00, can be carried by two
men to creeks or ponds or
other water sources at the
scene of any fire.
The present pumper, which is
mounted on a jeep, will re-
main in Grand. Bend at all
times as stand-by equipment
when the truck is out of the
village.

Request payment
Council decided to request C.
A McDowell Ltd., Centralia, to
pay costs of connecting the
Albert. St. storm sewer to the
AnneSt. drain.
The sewer, according to
Drains Chairman Taylor, was
not connected at the time Mc-
Dowell built the culvert.
Council is also notifying the
Centralia firm that the side-
walks on Main St., rebuilt af-ter the culvert was installed
there in the fall of 1960, are
in an unsatisfactery condition,
After the dogs
The town may be able to se-

Deputy-reeve Farrow, as sa-

to investigate the offer from
"Municipal Mobile Animal Con-
trol" which indicated the cost
of its services could he met

fees.
The firm offers to provide
