Mrs. Durnin to qualify for
the grant, extensive work
and alterations would have
to be made before January
31 at the Centre such as
emergency exits, ramps,
washrooms and changing
rooms made larger to ac
commodate wheelchairs,
lower clothes racks, por
table ramps to swimming
pool, grab bars around edge
of pool, lowering of hair
dryers, pool wheelchairs,
blacktopping of outside
walkways.
She said to get the cost es
timates of the amount of
money needed to do the
alterations it would be
necessary to hire an
architect or an engineer to
determine what was needed,
how to do it and give an es
timate of cost.
She said she would apply
for a Wintario grant and a
recreation grant for com
munity centre to help pay
for the alterations and was
hopeful these would pay the
•full cost so that the township
would not have to pay.
Reeve Ervin Sillery
questioned whether enough
handicapped people would
use the facility to warrant
the expense. Mrs. Durnin
said there would be, in fact
three mentally handicapped
people are using the pool
now.
Councillor Robert Drum
mond said, “You want this
stu'dy started as soon as
possible,” and he made the
motion to hire an engineer to
draw up the plans for the
alterations to meet
regulations for the han
dicapped. Clerk Jack
.McLachlan was authorized
to investigate the name of
an engineer to do the job.
Mrs. Durnin said further
grants would be sought to
carry on the program when
the $19,000 runs out in nine
months.
In other business council
set the date for the first
meeting of the new
municipal council following
the election Tuesday,
December 5 at 8 p.m.
Road superintendent,
Allan Nicholson, was
authorized to order a new
six-inch pump, five
horsepower motor, plus pipe
and other material needed
for Egmondville well No. 2.
The new pump is expected to
pump 47 gallons per minute
and the cost will be ap
proximately $3,000. This will
overcome the shortage of
water the Egmondville
residents have had due to
the.worn out old pump.

Council accepted the
resignation of Margaret
Tugwell. Clinton, part-time
secretary at township office
at Vanastra. Mrs. Robin
(Ruth) Gates of Vanstra has
replaced Mrs. Tugwell.
Clerk Jack McLachlan
was given permission to at
tend the annual conference
of the Lake Huron zone of
the Ontario Municipal
recreation association at
Goderich on October 28. and
the meeting of local clerks
and treasurers in Goderich
on October 12.
There will be no need for
council sessions not to be
conducted properly in future
as information on conduc
tion of meetings, procedural
by-laws and other informa
tion, has been received by
the clerk and copies will be
given to all members of
council, thanks to the
Ministry of treasury,

tergovernmerttlil'hf fairs.
Moffat Lake Explorations
seeking oil and gas in the
township will instal a com
pressor site on the north
west corner of Lot 11, plan
23. at Vanastra.
The clerk will seek prices
on having the tax bills done
by a computer system as
most other municipalities in
the area do. as it is con
sidered cheaper than hiring
extra office help.
The Huron County Health
Unit authorized the council
to have the former Huron
Acoustics property at
Vanastra cleaned up as it is
considered a health hazard.
The plant burned down
about two years ago and no
attempt has been made to
clear the rubble which is an
eyesore.
Ontario Hydro notified
council it has replaced all
the bulbs in the street lights
at Vanastra and 20 of the
new lights have been broken
by vandals. Hydro refuses to
replace these as it is only
responsible for those lights
that burn out due to normal
wear and tear.
Council will have to foot
the bill and do the job at a
cost of about $130. with the
work to be done the first
week in October, according
to a motion made by Coun
cillor Frank Falconer.
Council was irked because
one male resident at
Vanastra said he knew who
was responsible for the van
dalism of the bulbs but
refused to identify them at
this time.
