A request by planner
George Penfold for a leave
of absence to study for his
Masters Degree in Planning
and Development at the
University of Guelph is be
ing considered by the Huron
County Planning Board.
At Friday’s meeting of
county council, however,
some indication was given to
the planning board of the
feelings of members.
Goderich Township
Deputy-reeve Grant Stirling
said lie was surprised this
request was put forward by
Penfold at this time. Stirling
said he understood the plan
ning department was short-
staffed and extremely busy.
“Is the work going to be
kept up when we’re short a
planner?” asked Stirling.
Planning c”..director Gary
Davidson said the county
has an educational policy for
its employees, and that the
planning board felt Pen
fold’s request was valid
enough to warrant con
sideration. Davidson said
the plan is to use a planning
technician to keep things
rolling along in the planning
department “as best as
possible”.
McKillop Reeve Allan
Campbell, chairman of the
planning board, admitted
that Penfold’s request
“bothers” him.
“Approval has not been
granted yet,” said Warden
Gerry Ginn. “A further
recommendation will be
coming in.”

The changeover to the
metric system is causing the
Huron County Planning
Department some concern.
The Ontario Ministry of
Housing has reminded the
planning department that as
of July 1, 1978. all planning
documents submitted to the
Ministry must be in metric
units.
“This will cause a distinct
problem for the planning
department as the budget
item for metric conversion
in the proposed 1978 budget
was deleted,” said planning
board chairman Allan
Campbell, McKillop reeve.

This is an election year for
the municipalities and when
nomination time rolls
around, Goderich will be
responsible for the
nominations for the election

County council learned
Friday this change is a
result of the town of
Goderich now having a
higher separate school
assessment than the
Township of McKillop, the
responsible municipality in
1976.

John Stafford, Deputy
reeve of Howick who is also
chairman of the Huron
County Library Board,
reported Friday that two
films of the Huron District
Assessment Rolls for the
years 1842 to 1848 have been
presented to the county
library by the University of
Western Ontario Library
System.
This gift was received as
thanks for the library’s co
operation in assisting with
the micro-filming of The
Clinton News-Record.
Warden Gerry Ginn said
the News-Record filming is
the first step in an effort to
update the recorded history
of Huron County. It is to be
continued to present day,
county council agreed, and a
student is to be hired to com
plete the collation of the
material under the guidance
of Jerry Fremlin, a
volunteer who has done this
work in the past,
The project is to be com
pleted by September 30,
1978, and the cost is to be
paid from the History Pro
ject Budget.

as 70 members of the Socie
ty for the Study of Architec
ture in Canada visited the
structure.
Members of the group who
have been attending a con
ference sponsored by the
Learned Society of Canada
at the University of Western
Ontario, toured south
western Ontario visiting
local landmarks.
In a slide presentation and
talk held upstairs in the
town hall, Dr. Anthony
Adamson of the Ontario
Heritage Foundation said
“Huron County is fortunate
in its town halls.”
“In many parts of On
tario, towns had grandiose
visions of their future and
built town halls out of
proportion to their
localities. They became
white elephants. Huron
county was prosperous and
built in proportion.”
Adamson, an author of
several books on Canadian
architecture, explained that
in its early days, the hall,
like many others, was also
used as marketplace.
“Butchers were common
ly found in town halls,” he
said. In the beginning there
were very few permanent
public officials and the
natural activity in any
public meeting place was
selling.”
Following the groups visit
to Exeter, they travelled to
Goderich, Clinton and
Seaforth and toured the
significant architectural
buildings in each municipali
ty.
