Council tentatively approved a
proposal for the straightening of
part of George St, and closing of
another part. However, only a
small portion of the proposed
changes are in the village and the
remainder are in Boasanquet
twp. The purpose of the land in
question was originally to be
used for parking for Sun Beach
but it is unused. The roadway
would have to remain at least 66
feet across, and council wishes to
see the actual survey maps
before giving their final ap-

One reply was received at
Monday's council meeting from
registered complaint letters the
village sent to six ratepayers
following the rather rowdy May
24th weekend in the village.
One ratepayer who received
the letter attended the council
meeting to tell them he found the
letter offensive. The ratepayer
said he knew the cottage in
question was being too noisy and
he had asked the people who had
rented it to leave the premises
long before receiving the village
letter. In addition he claimed the
letter accused him of running ill-
kept rundown places, which he
said is not true.
Council explained the letter
was a general one which was
made broad enough to cover all
complaints and was not to be
taken personnally, In the past
council has had problems with
merely phoning people con-
cerning complaints and also have
