The second part, the structural survey gathered information on churches, schools, organizations and associations, businesses and social services. The statistics gathered were run through the universities computer and turned up some interesting facts, such as the information that 14 per cent of the households surveyed had no car, but over one quarter of all households had one or more trucks. The survey also showed that 40 per cent of homes had a bicycle but only 15 per cent had a snowmobile, a fact that harrassed homeowners at this time of the year might find hard to believe. The most popular leisure time activity was reading. Reading was popular with 60 percent of respondents finishing more than three books in the last year while 11 per cent scored as voracious readers, devouring more than 50 books in the past year. Television was watched less than one hour a day by about one third of those surveyed while the remainder watched more than two hours everyday. Such other goodies as the fact that 31 per cent of those surveyed reported having a headache in the past two weeks also turned up in the survey. Mary Jane Starr, staff member of the project warns there are dangers in taking too much out of such statistics without further analysis to bring them into proper perspective. Further study went on for those involved in R.D.O.P. Realizing that the secondary plan for Turnberry township would be in the planning stages shortly, the group began to attend other planning workshops in Huron county townships to learn the procedures used in the county. They attended the workshops held by the Huron County Planning Department in Ashfield, Hay and Stanley townships and gained a knowledge of the methods used by the planners. Jackie Wolfe, a professor of geography from the University who is attached to the project, says Huron is very special in that it has these public workshops to try to get citizens of each municipality involved in the planning process. > Y �4 •. > Y ti Have you seen...
