-Planning hoard
starts activities
A new planning board has been.
established in Grand Bend and it
meets the second Tuesday of
each- month,
Chairman Keith Crawford
advises that ratepayers will be
welcomed to send in written
somissieas regarding any
planning matter.
Crawford added, "We would
like to have the submissions at
least one month in advance of a
meeting and they should include
as much detail as possible."
A letter to ratepayers in 1978
will include information on the
planning board and its
procedures,
other members of the planning
hoard are vice chairman Bolt
Clay, Harold Green, Don Flear,
Frank Bunter, Gerald Monier
and reeve Bob Sharen,,,ex-officio,
Grand Bend council Monday
night stood by an earlier decision
not to allow the Grand Bend
Women's Institute to use the
village hall for five afternoon
meetings during the winter
months.
The WI was refused use of the
hall a few months ago because of
the noise created was disturbing
employees during normal office
hours.
A letter- from, the WI public
relations officer and a delegation
of five ladies at Monday night's
meeting asked council to
reconsider the decision.
Sharen said he was "very
disturbed" that someone (he
didn't know who it was) would
call his mother and ask her to
intercede for the WI
He continued, "my family has
nothing to do with council. I think
we operate this municipality as
good or better than any in Canada
and at less per capita."
Two of the delegation replied to
Sharen's comments about his
family. Mrs, Carman Lovie said,
"We are appalled that your
mother was called" and Mrs.
Doug Russell interjected, "We
have great °respect for your
mother,"
The requests for a decision
reversal listed some of the•
projects which the WI has
completed at the hall. These
included purchases of a piano,
pictures, etc. and building of a
kitchen and cupboards.
The ladies were told council
had already made arrangements
with the Grand Bend branch of
the Royal Canadian Legion for
use of their hall Thursday af-
ternoon during the winter.
The delegation headed by
Sharon Miller said they would
contact the Legion to inquire
about cupboard space.
Approval in principle was
given to Terry Skinner to proceed
with an application to close a
road allowance adjacent to his
property at Warwick and Centre
streets.
Councillor Harold Green
commented, "There is no reason
why it should not be closed of-
ficially. It has never been used."
Reeve Sharen said the land in
question would be divided equally
between Skinner and Frank
Nixon, another adjacent owner.
By MRS, HUGH MORENZ
Many folks in this area called
and sent greetings, last Saturday,
to Colin and Fern Love who
celebrated their 50th wedding
anniversary with an "open
house". Mr. & Mrs. Love were
one time operators of the Shipka
general store.
Mrs. Jack Keller and Sherri-
Lynn spent the weekend in
Moorefield with her parents Mr,
& Mrs. Roy Kirk.
Sunday and Monday visitors
with Mr. & Mrs. Willis Desjar-
dine were Mr. & Mrs. Bill
McKeever,, London, and Mrs.
Marian Horner and Mike,
Parkhill.
Sunday visitors with Mr. &
Mrs. Arnold Keller were Mr. &
Mrs. Don Keller, Goderich,
Robert Feltz, Brinsley, and Mr. &
Mrs. Max Windsor, Exeter.
Mrs. Ernie Chipchase, visited
Monday afternoon with Mrs.
Hugh Morenz,
Sharen added, "the property
owners will pay all costs of the
closing and we, as a council may
charge up to $100 for ad-
ministration fees,"
Council did not back a
resolution from Sandwich 'West
asking for a change in the High-
way Traffic Act regarding the
passing of school buses,
The resolution asked in the
event of illegal school bus passing
that the owner of a vehicle be
charged instead of having to
identify the driver.
Councillor Harold Green led
the objectors saying, "I would
want some changes before we
could endorse this. A lot of bus
drivers don't give you a chance."
Bill Baird added, "A lot of
times there are no signals until
they come to a stop."
Grand Bend businessman Bob
Sandercott is being charged with
failing to obtain a permit before
putting up a sign in front of his
property,
Council said Sandercott was
sent a letter saying he obviously
forgot about a permit, but, no
response was forthcoming. He
was previously convicted and
fined $100 on a similar charge.
- The Grand Bend sign bylaw
calls for a fee of $5 for a sign
under 32 square feet and $10 for
any larger sign. The maximum
fine is $300.
A land severance application
from Don Kunz was given ten-
tative approval.
A request has been received
from Mrs. Noonan for better
lighting in the vicinity of her
property at 82 Lake Road.
High priority
for dredging
Grand Bend council learned
recently from Environment
Canada that a request for
dredging of the GB harbour has a
high priority.
In a letter, regional engineer
Thomas Beaulieu said, "funds
have been requested to carry out
this work during the 1978-79 fiscal
year from April 1, 1978 to March
31, 1979.
"Arrangements aye now being
made to have the necessary plans
and specifications in readiness
for the calling of public tenders in
April, 1978 so the project can
'commence as soon as the spring
run-off is finished."
Beaulieu added "This is
dependent, of course, on funds
being provided which remain
unknown at this time."
