Westlake Ambulance now
maintains a service .in the

ambulance service to,
Thames Valley Ambulance'
in London.
Under. new Provincial
regulations, ambulance
services -only get paid, for
operatng the service, while
the Ministry of Health owns
e9uipment such as the radios
and' vehicles themselves,
Harold Knight said Mr,
Westlake was "trying to sell
goodwill" when he con-
sidered the sale to Thames
Valley. The sale hasn't gone
through,
If the ambulance service
in Zurich were discontinued,
then the next closes am-
bulance service to Hensall
are in Dashwood, Goderich
and Seiforth.
Harry Klungall said from
Hensall council's viewpoint,
"we are only interested in\
ambulance service" and not.
necessarily in .wh \o operates
it,
Council members decided
to endorse the resolution
passed at the Zurich
meeting, but to amend the
motion to request that a
letter be sent to the Ministry
of Health saying "we want
the ambulance service to
remain located in the Village
of Zurich on a 24 hour basis."
Reeve Harold Knight said
he couldn't see why it would
matter if the ambulance was
a satellite operation from -a
as long as service elsewhere,
it was located in Zurich.
A letter was received from
MPP Jack Riddell,, asking if
Ira Geirger, who lives on the
outskirts of the village, could
main receive hydro from
Hensall PUC, and pay the
lower town' rates. Mr.
Geirge, whose home is in
Tuckersmith Township, is
now paying rural hydro
rates.
Council said it would be
"illegal" tb supply Mr.
Geirger with hydro through
the Hensall PUC, when the
man is living outside the
village limits.
Reeve Harold KNight
suggested the solution might
be to have Mr. Geiger "apply
to the village of Hensall to be
annexed."
Council decided to publish
a letter of thanks for support
in the arena fund raising
campaign in local papers, as
well as a complete financial
