Stephen to continue policy
of upgrading road system
At the inaugural meeting
of Stephen township council,
reeve Cecil Desjardine said
he expected continued
provincial spending
restraints would restrict any
major projects for 1978.
Desjardine said the road
building program started a
couple of years was proving
advantageous. He said the
widening and building up of
Concession road 10-11 bet
ween Stephen Central School
and Highway 83 had cut
down on snow plowing.
Later in the meeting
council gave approval to
reconstruction of another
two miles and a half of roads.
Application will be made
to the Ontario Ministry of
Transportation and Com
munications for $50,000 in
supplementary road sub
sidies to construct a bridge
at Lot 22 on Concession road
4-5, north of Huron street.
A recently completed
survey of present bridges in
the township suggested this
structure be rebuilt.
Clerk Wilmar Wein said a
supplementary subsidy in
the amount of $28,000 was
received in 1977 for purchase
of a new grader.
The township will be ad
vertising in the near future
for a dog control officer and
will be checking with the
Exeter and Kirkton
veterinary clinics for
housing of any animals
which are picked up.
The dates for council
meetings in February will be
changed to allow council
members to attend
meetings.
The second meeting ih
January will be held on the
regular date January 17 but
February meetings will be
switched to February 14 and
28. March meetings will be
on March 7 and 21. All will
start at 1.30 p.m.
