Break-ins
protest zoning
Continued from front page
Reeve Derry Boyle and Mayor
Bruce Shaw told the delegation of
ratepayers that the zoning
designation could have gone
either way. They said that the
planning board had decided to
rezone the area as commercial
because Gregus had requested it.
"Now you are telling us that you
have changed your mind", Shaw
responded to Gregus.
Boyle said that as far as
Council was concerned, it didn't
really matter what the zoning
designation was. "We were told
by you that you wanted it com-
mercial", he said.
The delegation was given
assurance by Council that the
matter would be looked into and
that they could expect the area to
be returned to residential zoning.

-The committee now has
complete confidence that Council
has taken a clear stand. Con-
fidence is the one thing we lacked
ad we have it", Stephens sl
Although the committee now
has the authority to contact the
other municipalities which might
be involved in the South Huron
project ,it will only be able to offer
an arena and hall as proposed by
Exeter Council. Stephens had
originally hoped that a swimming
pool might he included in that
project to ensure wider com-
munity financial support, but
seemed satisfied with Council's
maislate, stating that the final
architectural plans would be
drawn in such a manner as to
easily allow the future additions
of other facilities, The committee
will he able to approach
municipal councils with this
option in mind,

John McDougall of Hensall was
fined $28 for permitting his

think that is important to keep
the idea before the public that our
target is still to raise all the
money without debenture, but ifs
reassuring to know that Council
is prepared to back us up",
Stephens observed.
In the past, Stephens and his
committee had been concerned
that fund-raising could not begin
until they had an absolute
commitment from Council as to
what kind of a recreational
centre would be built and
assurance from Council that it
would, in fact, be built.
Armed with that certainty,
Stephens has given his com-
mittee the go-ahead to raise
funds, knowing what it is that
they will be asking people to
