Grey council wants stop signs in Walton Grey Township Council held its regular meeting on July 8 and passed a resolution requesting the County of Huron to consider replacing the yield signs in Walton at the intersections of County Road 12 South (Seaforth) and County Road 12 North (Brussels) with County Road 25. Council noted in its letter to the County Engineer that County Road 25 is a heavily travelled road with a high volume of heavy truck traffic and it was Council's opinion that stop signs would increase the awareness of the intersections to both local residents and non-local traffic. Copies of the resolution have also been forwarded to the Town­ ships of Morris and McKillop for their support. In other business Council approved for payment gen­ eral accounts totalling $258,163.76, drain accounts totalling $1,366.55 and road accounts totalling $163,690.11. The next regular meeting of Council is scheduled for July 22 at 7 p.m. Study shows bias for urban taxpayers SCOUTS CANAOA Continued from page 1 since under proposals it would get 100 per cent funding for its airport. The report seems to make provi­ sions for special situations, howev­ er say the department heads. "No amount of reorganization or restructuring is going to change the fact that a bridge in East Wawanosh Township can cost $1 million to build." The department heads also point out there are many things over­ looked in the proposal. For some­ one in a rural township or town or village the only mode of travel may be by road which would be paid for totally by the municipality. In large urban centres there may be alterna­ tives, heavily subsidized by the province ranging from buses to subways to GO-trains. In addition industry tends to locate along provincial highways which means the province will pick up a large part of the costs for serving large urban industries. By contrast the major industry in Huron, and major users of the roads, are farms locat­ ed throughout the township road system. ST. JOHN AMBULANCE First Aid Course JULY 22, 24, 29 & 31 7 P.M.-10 P.M.
