Ratio to stay same '8 Voltage reduction test May 4
Ontario Hydro in conjunction
with Exeter P.U.C., will conduct
a voltage reduction test in Exeter
on Tuesday, May 4 between nine
and 10 a.m.
Voltage will be reduced by five
percent to determine the trans-
formation capabilities of the
'E'xeter utility in every area of
town. Manager, Hugh Ditvis,
commented that he could foresee
no problem when the voltage is
reduced. "When a municipality's
voltage can't tolerate a five
percent reduction, it should be
looking into improving its
transformation", he said.
He said that the minimum and
maximum voltage range allowed
by Ontario Hydro is between 104
and 127 volts. Observing that
Exeter is in the 120 to 125 range,
he suggested that a five percent
reduction would not bring Exqter
voltage levels down below 104.
"We're continuously running
volt-meter tests. We've got one on
right now", he said.
The manager said that if
Exeter were to have any
problems at all that it would be in
the primary or secondary lines
and confined to one small area in
town, "If bits and pieces of a
.municipality can'I hold up under
a five percent reduction, then I
think it will be up to the
municipality to correct,"
Ted Pooley, chairman of the
Commission wondered if the
voltage reductions were being
undertaken by Ontario Hydra to
save money.
Davis commented that the
terms "blackout" and
"brownout" have been used
increasingly. "In three years we
could reach the stage where
generators no longer reach the
demand and its possible that it
could result in voltage reduc-
tions," "It' you have a very low
voltage condition, you're better
off with a, blackout", he said,
referring to extended brownouts
where electrical motors and
appliances have been burned out.
He told the Commission that
there was no cause to be alarmed
over the upcoming voltage-
reduction tests, however.
In other business, the Com-
mission decided to hold off on
servicing 54 lots in phase two of
the Veri Mobile 'Home Sub-
division until customer use of the
34 lots presently serviced had
increased.
At present, only one occupied
mobile home is in the subdivision
and manager, Hugh Davis
suggested that it would be
inadvisable to proceed with more
servicing until the Exeter utility
is deriving more revenue from
present servicing,
Davis said that there was a
second problem involved with
servicing that area, in that no
plans have been released by Veri
to the Commission with respect to
what would he required in phase
three of the project. He said that
it was possible that "back to
back" servicing could be used, at
considerable reduction in ex-
pense, connecting phase two and
phase three development. He
suggested that until further plans
are received from Veri, the
Commission should not consider
further servicing.
"Th is plan (the jhase two plan)
has changed from the
preliminary plan I received last
year and we will have to check it
out in terms of easements",
Davis said,
Chairman Pooley added that
any changes involving additional
expanse would have to be added
On.
The' Commission also noted
that changes are being con-
sidered in the plans given to the
P.U.C. with regard to the Exeter
recreation centre. According to
Davis, plans now call for the
centre to he heated by hydro.
"I'm of the opinion that if the
building goes all electric heat
that we would have problems",
Davis said,
The Commission voted to
advise both Veri and the planners
for the recreation complex that
they want further and more
detailed information on the two
projects.
Any changes in the Veri Sub-
division plans involving extra
cost will be borne by the sub-
division it was concluded by the
Commission.
Break-ins
Continued from front page
damage was reported in the
production area. The company
has been able to continue normal
operation,
At Protective Plastics, $100 in
stolen property was reported and
an additional $100 in damage to
property inside the plant's office
area, Fleck Manufacturing
reported an unknown quantity of
cigarettes stolen, two lamp
stands, change frbm the cigarette
machines and damage to the
machines. Desks had been
opened and papers stewn about
the room,
A butcher knife was stolen
from Mr. Fibreglass. Damage
was reported to at least one of the
typewriters there.
In each case, entry was gained
by smashing windows and
daMage and theft appeared to be
limited mainly to the office areas
of the plants.
Mr. Patterson said that his
company is concerned about
vandalism and thefts going on in
Huron Park,and felt that part of
the problem was that the courts
-are too lenient on crimes of this
nature.
"We did have a patrol service
that was provided by the ODC,
(Ontario Development cor-
poration), but when they began
their austerity program it was
cut out," Patterson said.
Despite discussion during the
past month by the Huron County
board .of Education members.
the student-teacher ratio for the
1075.77 school year will remain
the same as suggested earlier.
At a special meeting Wed-
nesday night, the board accepted
a recommendation from the ad
hoc negotiating committees that
Director .of Education John
Cochrane finalize the staff for the
fail term.
At the elementary level from
grades one to eight, a maximum
from our
representative,
Hugh Sheldon
who will be at:
Les Pines Hotel
EXETER
on Tuesday, May 4
of 313.4 teachers will be .em-
ployed. This is a decrease of 6.6
teachers from the current term.
The 313.4 teachers does not
include teachers for home
economics, industrial arts,
special education and kin-
dergarten.
The kindergarten ratio is one-
half teacher for each 211 pupils or
fraction thereof.
The employment of 313.4
teachers will generate a pupil-
teacher ratio of 22 to 1.
