T-A photo Council briefs Society cancels contract The London Humane Society advised Exeter council this week it could no longer operate under an open type contract to patrol in Exeter. In a letter read, Monday, the Society said it had been ex- periencing "substantial losses" due to an increase in labor costs, food and fuel and would be cancelling the present contract as of January 1, 1978. They did advise they would continue to act as animal control officers in the community at the rate of $20 per hour and 30 cents per mile. "With the poor job they've been doing, it isn't worth it," com- mented Councillor Ted Wright. Councillor Ken Ottewell said he couldn't see how the Humane Society could be experiencing an increase in food costs for animals picked up, because "they don't catch any dogs anyway". The matter was turned over to social services committee chairman Lossy Fuller. present policy where each department negotiates separately with each council committee. "I've argued this for years," commented Councillor Ted Wright in moving to have the suggqtion followed this year. Councillor Steve Pfaff said the committee should also be in contact with other Huron towns so Exeter does not give its em- ployees something which other places couldn't afford. It was generally agreed that the finance committee, plus the chairman of each committee involved with employees, act on the overall negotiating group. to park maintenance costs in Exeter. Councillor Ted Wright, who has been active in the negotiations to acquire the property in con- junction with the Ausable- Bayfield Conservation Authority, said the Authority secretary was presently preparing a new agreement to better define the parklands which the town and Authority share and which lands they own individually. At present, there appears to be some confusion over that ownership and the respon- sibilities each has. * * * With the oncoming winter season, Exeter police chief Ted Day reminds all residents of Exeter that a No Parking ban is in effect each morning from 1 a.m. to 6 a.m. Day continues, "Now that the snow is just about upon us, the police department requests that you make some arrangements for parkinganddo not leave your vehicles on the street or you will receive a parking ticket." During the past week, the town police department have received complaints from motorists and property owners that youths have been throwing eggs at vehicles and houses. Police will be checking closely for the persons responsible and if q apprehended will appear in 7 juvenile court. TWO ACCIDENTS The only two accidents in- vestigated this week by officers of the Exeter police department occurred Thursday. At 9:30 a.m. vehicles driven by Larry Lichty, Highway 83 west and Arthur Hanna, Kitchener collided at the intersection of Highways 4 and 83: Constable Jim Barnes listed damages at $250. Constable George Robertson set damages at $700 when vehicles driven by William Salter, London and Ken Horrell, Exeter were in collision on Main Street at Gidley. * * * The former Jack Elliott property beside the bridge on Main St. was demolished Monday to make way for more park space in Exeter, although council didn't approve the demolition until Monday night's council meeting. However, there wasn't any problem getting the action ap- proved by council, although Councillor Derry Boyle did speak against the matter. When informed that Exeter would have to pay for the maintenance bf any park development that takes place on the property, Boyle said the town couldn't afford any more parkland. He predicted the maintenance on the Elliott property would add $2,000 a year The executive committee has recommended that accumulation of sick leave be negotiated out of contracts with all town of Exeter employees. In making the recommendation to council this week, Mayor Bruce Shaw gave few details on how this would be undertaken. The recommendation catne after clerk Eric Carscadden reported two weeks ago that the accumulatidn of sick time this year would amount to over $9,000 if none of the town employees claimed any sick time. In addition to the sick leave recommendation, the executive committee also suggested that an overall committee be established by council to study and negotiate fringe benefits and salary scales for all departments. This would replace council's Plan excellent musical program Residents of Exeter area will have the opportunity of hearing an excellent musical program when The Dominion Life Choir present an Evening of Music at the S.H. Recreational Centre, Tuesday, November 29, at 8:30 p.m. The choir which was formed in 1948, is a talented and enthusiastic group which has been singing its way around Southwestern Ontario since then. Using the medium of good music it spreads warmth, laughter and goodwill and its program is designed to appeal to all kinds of taste. The choir is led by conductor, Donald Landry, music consul- tant to the Waterloo County School board, lecturer in music at Wilfrid Laurier University and past director of Kitchener- Waterloo Philharmonic Choir. Approximately 25 people make up the mixed chorus, most of whom are members or former Members of the head office staff at Dominion Life Assurance Company of Waterloo. The choir is being brought to Exeter by the Heritage Founda- tion and tickets may be purchas- 'from any member. NAME NEGOTIATOR The .Education Relations Commission announced Thur- sday the appointment of Harvey L. Ladd as a third party to assist the Huron County Board of Education and its secondary School teachers in their negotiations. Ladd, who is privately em- ployed as a labour relations consultant, has lectured ex- tensively on the collective bargaining process and has conducted training courses in the field. Among major assignments as a mediator and arbitrator, he, was involved in the grain han- dling dispute on the west coast. Success beyond all expectations Last Friday's midnight madness sale in Exeter has been termed "successful beyond what any of us expected" according to Bob Swartman, promotions chairman for the Exeter Central Business Improvement Area. Hundreds of extra shoppers thronged the streets beginning early Friday night seeking the values that were advertised by the participating stores. Most merchants reported that business was brisk right up until midnight. Swartman indicated that many shops, including his own, were not prepared to handle the sudden rush of eager shoppers. He said we expected the sale would be well received but there were times in many of the stores where the clerks were just too rushed to properly serve all their customers. He added that shoppers were understanding, and even if the service was a little slower, most them enjoyed the event. Many businesses in the downtown core area have suggested that the midnight madness theme be repeated.
