Sewers, beach, garbage
among issues at resort
Grenier said "sewers are one of
the main reasons I am running
for deputy-reeve. If any place has
a pollution problem it's Grand
Bend. I have spent several
thousand dollars in recent years
on drains on my own properties
and they haven't solved the
problem,"
Three new men attempting to
obtain a seat on council Harold
Green, Bill Baird and Doug
Kincaid are supporters of the
sewer project.
Baird commented "I'm behind
sewers 100 percent" while Kin-
caid was critical of the numerous
delays in the past which have
caused sharp increases in the
cost of sewers.
The lone incumbent councillor
seeking re-election, Murray Des
Jardins said "sewers will be a
reality eventually but after the
"shafting" we took on the water
system, too much caution cannot
be practiced."
On the subject of finances
•Reeve Bob Sharen said, "we are
financially responsible for the
first time in several years with
FANSHAWE GRADUATE
Friday, at the ninth convocation
of Fanshawe College, Mrs. Stuart
Payne (the former Jo Anne
Whilsmith) graduated from the
Welfare Services Division as
counsellor for the mentally han-
dicapped. Commencing in
January she will, be employed at
the Oxford Regional Centre,
Woodstock. Mrs. Payne is the
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur
Whilsmith, Exeter, and is a
graduate of South Huron District
High School.
all accounts paid and the budget
balanced by an audited check of
the books."
His opponent John Payne I
questioned 1974 taxation saying
"Yes I think we are overtaxed.
Village income for 1974 is
estimated to be $350,000. This is
$71,000 more than two years
ago."
"This is a considerable in-
crease and based on the cutback
in costs of garbage collection
street cleaning and neglect of our
beaches, parks and other green
areas, it would appear our tax
rate is much too high."
Councillor Murray Des Jardins
emphasized the village's
financial position. He indicated a
balanced budget for the first time
since 1969.
Deputy-reeve candidate Tom
Webster indicated he was in
favour of providing quality
recreational programs for the
young people of the resort. He
also favours a planned approach
to Grand Bend's future.
Council candidate Bill Baird
said if elected he would strive for
a cleaner beach and green areas
and better service in garbage
collection.
On the beach subject, Harold
Green said, "The beach is our
greatest asset. A clean beach
would show our visitors we are
concerned. Dirty beaches do not
promote' tourism.
Green also advocates better
recreational facilities for all
ages.
Doug Kincaid said he would
strive to provide adequate
pedestrian and traffic safety plus
interesting recreation programs
for all ages.
On the subject of village ser-
vices councillor Des Jardins said
"Perhaps some of the services
we previously enjoyed were not
continued in 1974 but it's a matter
of economy. We lack that famous
commodity 'money',

Construction of the proposed
sewer system, an attractive
beach, garbage collection and
taxation are some of the issues in
Monday's December 2 election in
Grand Bend.
In a recent survey the T-A
learned the matter of sewers was
utmost in the minds of all persons
trying for a seat on council.
Reeve Bob Sharen said "Now
that we have been assured• that
any extra costs arising from an
oversize system will be assumed
by the participating townships
the sooner they are installed the
better."
Deputy-reeve candidates Tom
Webster and Rollie Grenier agree
on sewers. Webster noted he was
a strong supporter of the project-
and almost singlehandedly tried
to get council as a whole to
recognize the problem.
Goderich student
named ecologist
John Wakon, a grade 12 student
at Northwestern Secondary
School, got out of bed to answer
the phone Friday morning and
learned he had been named
Ecologist of the Year. It was
teachers' development day so
school was closed and he was
catching up on his sleep.
The Perth-Huron branch of the
Tuberculosis and Respiratory
.Diseases Association selected
him Thursday night as winner of
first prize for ecological concern
at student level.
The second prize goes to
Marion Adams, of Exeter, and
third prize to Teresa Ondrejicka,
of the same town. Both are grade
12 students at South Huron
District High School.
John Wakon will receive $25, a
small trophy for himself and a
shield for his school. Marion and
Teresa will be given trophies and
shields. The awards will probably
be presented next month.
Marion Adams winner of
second prize is a member of
Exeter's Conservation Club and a
leader at Camp Sylvan and is also
involved in an ecological group
called Outers.
She belongs to her school's
photography club. Her interests
centre round conservation and
pollution control, Last summer
she took part in the program to
clean up Exeter.
Teresa Ondrejicka, third place
winner was Ecologist of the Year
in 1973. The Exeter girl writes
on pollution topics for the Exeter
Times-Advocate and takes part
in the Camp Sylvan program.
All three students are non-
smokers.

Optical shop
sign refused
Exeter council agreed this
week to support building in-
spector Doug Triebner's ruling
that a proposed sign for Moffatt
Optical could not be approved
because it contravenes the local
sign bylaw.
However, at the same time,
members admitted that the firm
could probably erect the sign
in the laneway beside G&G
Discount and get away with it.
This suggestion was made after
Councillor Tom MacMillan
wanted to know what action
council would take in such a
situation, noting that at least two
signs were presently in existence
that were in contravention of
local bylaws.
"Nothing happened to them,"
he noted.
Reeve Boyle admitted the firm
could probably erect the
proposed sign if they wanted to be
nasty and tell the town to go to
hell.
The sign came up for
discussion two weeks ago when
Tom Webster from Acme Neon
Signs appeared on behalf of
Moffat Optical to ask con-
sideration for a sign in the
laneway between Sanders
Grocery and G&G Discount.
He was advised at that time by
council that the sign would
probably be approved.
However, Triebner noted this
week that the sign bylaw
prohibits any portion of a sign
projecting over a street in any
manner and that a street in-
cluded a lane under terms of the
bylaw.
Council had expected Mr.
Moffat to appear at Monday's
meeting to appeal the decision,
but he did not.
