T-A photo GB councillor concerned Want policy on storm closings Grand Bend council decid ed Monday night to ask En vironment Canada to make improvements to the Grand Bend harbour. Council had made preliminary inquiry about possible improvements several months ago, but the subject was brought up again when a letter read from Terrance Copeland on behalf of all of the fishermen in the village, Copeland’s letter said, “What we feel is a safe har bour is one that will allow fishing tugs to enter the har bour safely with moderate off-shore winds. Grand Bend has always been a dangerous harbour because of sand bars caused by large waves from a north-west direction. The fishermen want im provements so the harbour will be usable without jeopardizing our boats and men.” Copeland suggested the situation could be corrected by placing two large rock piles about one-third of a mile outside the entrance similar to those used at Leamington and Point Pelee in Lake Erie.

Green said on one par ticular day when buses did not run only 36 students showed up for classes. All were from the village proper. He added, “All teachers were doing that day was providing baby sitting services.” Green continued, “The board is putting the onus on the parents for children going to school. We should do something as a council”. Reeve Bob Sharen com mented, “The only thing we can do is ask for a consistent policy.
