NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING
County of Bruce Committee of Council
Dealing with Planning Matters
'INVITES
Interested parties to attend a public meeting to discuss a
proposed amendment to the Bruce County South Official
Plan, under Section 17 & 21 of the Planning Act 1983.
The purpose of the proposed amendment is to permit the
development of land in the Village of Lucknow for commer-
cial purposes.
Land affected by the proposed amendment have an area
of approximately 16,000 sq. ft. with a frontage of about
220 ft. along Campbell Street, and are located between
Victoria and Stauffer Streets and formerly known as the
Montgomery Motors property.
The lands are described as Lots 285 - 286 - 287 on
Registered Plan No. 36.
A PUBLIC MEETING to consider the above noted propos-
ed amendment will be held on Wednesday, May 6th, 1987
at 11:00 A.M. in the upstairs meeting room of the Bruce
County Administration Buildings, 30 Park St., Walkerton,
Ontario.
ANY PERSON may attend the public meeting and make
written and / or verbal representation either in support
or opposition to the proposed amendment.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION relating to the proposed
amendment can be obtained. at the Bruce County Plann-
ing & Economic Developmennt Department, 30 Park Street,
Walkerton, Ontario between the hours of 8:30 A.M. - 4:30
P.M. Monday - Friday. (519)' 881-1782.
The fire started in the evening in a
general store owned by Montgomery's
where Sherwood's Store and Karen's Hair-
dressing now is. It spread to buildings on
both sides before the Kincardine Fire
Department reached the scene.
When called, they first thought it to be an
April Fools joke, but when the late Huber
Eedy convinced them that it was no hoax,
they came as quickly as possible. The
Goderich Fire Department was unable to
come because of some disagreement with
the insurance company.
Montgomery's store and residence,
Lorne McKenzie's garage, McKenzie's
hardware and dwelling and the late Tom
and Mary Rivett's restaurant were
destroyed. The firemen stopped the flames
from consuming the central office which is
still standing just north of the service
centre.
There was a dance at the Anglican
Parish Hall that night and after the fire
was under control, the firemen went to the
hall for coffee and sandwiches.
In spite of the fact that so much was go-
ing on in the village and most of the sur-
rounding area was alerted by the party
line system, there were some villagers
who slept through it all. The late Nellie
Sproul who lived behind the United church
where Ulchs now live, was a clerk in the
Montgomery store and knew nothing until
she came to work. What a shock !
This is from the memoirs of Mel Jones, a
long-time resident of the village.
