Advertising- A letter received from the ministry of industry and tourism informing the village that a traffic study on the village’s harbour may be conducted in the fall received a cool reception from one council member. “Tell the ministry to get lost’’ was the reaction to the timing of the proposed study by councillor Keith Craw ford. Crawford called it a waste of the taxpayer’s money for ministry personal to conduct a traffic study on the har bour when the peak season has already been passed. After the meeting, Reeve Bob Sharen said council may ask ministry officials to con duct the study next spring. It was another govern ment ministry that came un der some criticism from Reeve Sharen. It was only through a lett er frotn MPP Lome Hender son that the village was made aware that the ministry of the environment had informed the manager of the Ontario Chamber of Commerce James Cagney that the ministry would be proceeding with the installa tion of sewers within the village sometime in the fall. Henderson had sent a covering letter to the village following a letter from Gerplex Holdings informing Henderson that they intend ed to appeal an Ontario Municipal board hearing that decided that the Gerplex property should not be zoned commercial. While the village had been informed that the sewer work would proceed if funds were available, Sharen was upset that the village had not received a copy of the letter to the Ontario chamber. There’s a possibility that • the village could have some form of angle parking on the main street in the near future ’as a discussion in- iated by councillor Harold Green was receptive to the change. Green said that in talking with works superintendent, the village’s engineer had told him one third more parking could be gained. Green said there had been talk by previous councils about going to angle parking but that they could do little as the main street at the time was under'the jurisdic tion of the ministry of com munications and transporta tion. Following a discussion on which side the angle parking could go on and the problems which could arise, council agreed to give the matter further discussion at About people you know Rev. & Mrs. John Camp bell, Laura Lee and Douglas, attended a 50th wedding anniversary celebration Saturday in honor of John’s aunt and uncle, Mr. & Mrs. Howard Campbell at Blyth, Gail Willard spent some holidays last week with her gra ndmother , Mrs .
