Council, after taking a tour of sidewalks in the village last month, had decided sidewalks should be replaced on Dinsley Street west of Queen street along the north side; Dinsley east of Queen along the north side and on the west side of Queen north of the senior citizens apartments. There was no provi sion in the budget for the sidewalk repairs. The matter was brought to a head when council got cost figures for repairs for a drain on Mill Street that would solve flooding problems for nearby homes. Installation of a new catchbasin and manhole, 190 feet of 10 inch corragated pipe and labour, granular material and backhoe work pushed the cost to the neighbourhood of $3,000. Councillors had earlier looked at the problem of a drain on Gypsy Lane which would see a new drain laid back into the block east of Gypsy Lane to relieve pressure on an existing drain that had caused a backup, flooding the basement of a homeowner Councillors did not have a price on that drain readily available but Reeve Albert Wasson predicted it would be considerably cheaper than the Mill Street drain. The reeve said he knew town works foreman Merv Ritchie had some figures on the cost but he was away on vacation. Helen Grubb, clerk-treasurer, pointed out that there was no money for any of the programs in the budget and said that if council decided it needed drains it would perhaps have to drop its sidewalk plans. Reeve Wasson suggested that perhaps the problem would have to be turned back to the staff to look at the cost options more closely. Councillor Lloyd Sippel said it would be a ‘ ‘flip a coin” decision to try to decide which drain problem was more serious if council was only able to do one. Councillor Bev Elliott suggested that perhaps the drains were more urgent than the sidewalks since the sidewalks had been in bad shape for years anyway. Councillors asked Mrs. Grubb if there were any areas of saving in the year’s expenses so far that would allow the work but she said that the figures for the first six months of expenditures weren’t available yet.
