Morris council approves move of Belgrave branch library Morris Township council has approved a plan to relocate the Belgrave library branch from its present location at the Belgrave Community Centre to new quar ters at the Women’s Institute Hall in the village. The motion of support was made at the council meeting on April 21, when mem bers were told that the township of East Wawanosh is in full support of the move ^s well. The Huron County Library Board has been asked to consider the proposal. According to Morris clerk-trea surer Nancy Michie, the move is being sought because some library patrons are finding it difficult to climb the stairs to the facility at the arena. The annual rental of $300 presently paid by the county library board to the Belgrave Community Centre would be turn ed over to the W.I. hall if the move is made. At the same meeting, council lors approved the renovations proposed for the W.I. Hall in 1987, which include a new roof at an estimated cost of $7,000, as well as a proposal for the new library room. Council has applied for a grantfrom the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation on behalf of the Belgrave Institute. If approved, the grant would provide for one third the cost of the renovations. In other business, council has authorized the proceedings to accept part of the property of Kevin andSam Pletch of Belgraveasa public roadway, subject to several conditions which must be approv- ed by the ov, ners before further action is considered. At the same time, council discussed the need for repairs to Jane Street which would be necessary if the Pl etch proposal is accepted. The Pletches appeared before council on April 7 torequest the rezoning applica tion. Following a request from a ratepayer that the boundary road at Bluevale be paved, council advised that such a project is not in the township’s plans for the forseeable future, but noted that if the Centre Sideroad is paved, the Bluevale project may be consider ed at the same time. A public meeting has been plannedforMay28atthe W.I. Hall in Belgrave to discuss the replace ment of 25 streetlights in the hamlet. Morris Township repre sentatives as well as personnel from Ontario Hydro will be present at the meeting. Ontario Hydro has offered toinstall the lights at no charge. The tender of Parker & Parker Ltd. of Zurich has been accepted to construct the Grasbv drain Branch B at a price of $9,788.70. The Parker bid was the lowest of the tenders received, which went as high as $16,645. At the same meeting, the tender of Lloyd Jacklin Construction of RR 1, Listowel, was accepted to supply, load and haul 25,000 yards of pit run gravel for the township. Mr. Jacklin’s tender of $1.38 per yard was the lowest of the three received. Chief building official Leo San ders attended the meeting to present building permit applica tions. Permits were issued to Alvin Wallace of RR 2, Blyth, for construction of a pig barn and liquid manure tank; to Dale Bachert, alsoofRR2, Blyth, for the construction of an addition to a house; and to Wayne Chandler, of RR 4, Brussels, for the construc tion of a two-car garage and storage facility. The tile drainage loan applica tion submitted by Phyllis Mitchell onConcession lOwas accepted, subject to the availability of funds, and petitions for repairs to the McCaughey drain on Cone. 7 and the McNeil drain on Cone. 5 were accepted. Road superintendent Lloyd Michie was advised that the catchbasinatLot25, Cone. 6, is covered and needs cleaning. Morris council was advised that the Blyth Community Centre levy againstthe township for 1987 is $4,318, double the amount reques ted last year. Community Centre representatives Bruce Bromley and Rae McNichol havebeenasked to attend the next council meeting to explain the increase. Finally, council approved a motion that members receive remuneration of $10 per meeting for board meetings attended on behalf of council, effective for 1987. Morris Township Council meets again at 7 p.m. on May 5.

More than $800,000 in addition al capital funding will be coming to the Huron County Board of Education, the result of promises ofincrease educational funding made in last week's provincial Speech from the Throne. Huron County Director of Edu cation Bob Allen made the an nouncement at the regular board meeting held at F.E. Madill Secondary School in Wingham on Monday. He said that close to $2.5 million in extra funding has been allocated to the area, to be shared by the Huron Board, the Perth County Board, and the Huron- Perth Separate School Board. Mr. Allan said that $300,000 of this will go toward the construction of a new roof at F.E. Madill, another $300,000 for a new roof at C.entral Huron Secondary School, $200,000 for a new roof at Huron Centennial Public School in Bruce- field, and $22,000 for a boiler replacement at Zurich Public School. In answer to a question from Goderich school trustee Mary Ann Dempsey as to whether the Ministry of Education thought that replacing roofs would reduce the school drop-out rate in the pro vince, Mr. Allan said “new roofs are ju st one aspect of the overall picture, but it certainly does not address all aspects of the pro blem.” OPEN TUES.-SAT. 9-6 FROZEN FEATURES J.B.
