Brussels People Compiled by Marilyn Higgins 8 win Menzies awards at commencement Eight graduates of Brussels Pub lic School were the recipients of the 1988 George Menzies Endowment Fund awards, presented at the F.E. Madill Secondary School Com mencement exercises in Wingham onFridaybyCarolGlitz, agrand- daughter of the late Mr. Menzies. Sharing in the $3,300 in interest generated by the perpetual fund this year were: Marc Barbour, Kelly Bauer, Karla King, Charlene Steph enson, all of Brussels; Clint Garniss, RR 2, Brussels; Bruce Johnston and Donna Johnston of RR 2, Bluexale and Cindy Stute of RR 4, Brussels. Since its inception in 1971 the fund has provided more than $57,000 to 101 students who qualify by pro ceeding to post secondary educa tion. The late George Menzies, former ly of Grey Township, was intensely interested in the value of education throughout his life. The possessor of less formal education than a Grade 8 student of today, he was able to gain for himself a position of prominence and respect in his community, and was always vitally concerned that any student who had the ability to proceed to higher education should not be held back through the lack of financial assistance. With this in mind, his will generously provided for the establishment of the fund, which will continue to benefit students from the area for many years to come. Of the students assisted by the fund this year Mr. Barbour who is attending Georgian College at Owen Sound in the Law and Security Administration program; Kelly Bauer is working toward a career in businessatConestoga College in Waterloo; Clint Garniss is at Centen nial College in Scarborough study ing Architectural Drafting; Bruce Johnston is in the Agricultural Business Management course at Centralia College; Donna Johnston is enrolled in the Bachelor of Science and Agriculture degree program at the University of Guelph; Karla King is a Social Science major at University of Western Ontario; Charlene Stephenson is in the Honours Business program at Wil fred Laurier University and Cindy Stute is also at Wilfred Laurier in an Honours Sociology program.

AUBURN BLYTH BRUSSELS 8:30a.m. 9:45a.m. 11:30a.m. Building permit change discussed Brussels council will look into charging a building permit fee for interior renovations to buildings wherestructureofthebuilding is altered. Donna White, assistant clerk treasurer brought up the point at Monday’s council meeting saying that there is a gap in the building permit policy of the village with clear rules setoutfor new construction and smaller exterior repairs but nothing for interior changes. Hugh Hanly, village clerk-trea surer said the village building inspector said that in cases where a partition was removed or a larger window put in a house he wouldn’t just look at the area itself but look at the house from basement to attic to see the effect the move would have on the structural strength of the building. He had suggested a licence fee of $50 to $70 to cover that cost. Reeve Gordon Workman said there would be some conscientious people who would pay the fee and have the inspection but he suspected a lot of people would go ahead and do the work and not pay the inspection and “I don’t know how you’re going to police it”. Councillor Malcolm Jacobs sug gested that there should be an inspection fee for structural changes but non-structural changes such as drywalling shouldn’t require a permit. He suggested the village ask the inspector what he would actually charge for the inspection so the cost of the building permit could be kept as low as possible. The matter will be dealt with again at a later meeting.
