Housing federal funds; 421/2 percent is financed from provincial money; and usually, the municipality in which the housing units are located pays the remaining seven and one-half percent. Mr. Cook said that in Huron if a Housing Authority was set up, it would likely be a seven-member board. It would be the duty of that board to direct the management of the public housing; to approve the budget and tenant placement; and to deal with problems that arise. Always, the housing authority would operate with the guidelines of Ontario Housing Corporation. Mr. Cook said the proposal for a county housing authority has come before other interested persons in the county including Goderich Housing Authority. To date, no opposition has been registered to the proposal. He suggested that if a county authority was formed, there would be one manager, one maintenance man and a clerk- typist needed as staff. John Lyndon, Goderich, presently serves as part-time manager of the Goderich and Clinton housing authority as well as having other duties throughout Huron with OHC. Mrs. Harry Elliott, district director, gave a report on the district annual meeting held recently at Ethel, at which Mrs. Clarence Diamond was guest speaker.
