Bd. to review report Nov. 15 Judge gives man a break A young Brussels-area man was given a second chance after appear- ing before provincial court Judge R.G.E. Hunter Oct. 20 for passing bad checks and breaching proba- tion. Rene Poels, 25, RR3, Brussels had been charged with passing bad cheques at JR's, the Diesel Car Diner and a shoe store in Wing- ham. Total value was $88. This past September Mr. Poels was placed on probation after appearing before Judge Hunter on charges of break and enter, theft under $1,000 and possession of stolen property. Noting the lesser amounts of the cheques, the highest was for $33, A Wingham man was fined $750 and lost his license for 12 months after pleading guilty in Wingham's provincial court, Oct. 20 to impaired.

Continued from page 1 The Belgrave library is a branch three library, serving directly the community it is in. Open from 2-7 hours per week the library is used primarily for leisure reading. Using a graph, Ms Ross noted that demand is increasing steadily in the branch one and two libraries. Blyth and Brussels she said are "booming". However, the graph also showed that there has been a steady decrease in the branch three libraries attributed to the fact that people are able to get to the larger centres more frequently than in years past. The board's dilemma, Ms Ross said is that while people have shown how much they value their libraries, and the board is quite proud of the fact that demands and needs continue to increase, there is no more money. She said the provincial government disallows user fees. One person asked if that would be likely to change. Ms Ross said that the government has been approached about changing the rule. "They are looking at it, but it isn't a reality for us today or even a year from now," she said. The library service presently costs each county resident $21 in taxes. Those in attendance were then divided in groups for the purpose of discussing and responding to the challenges facing the library ser- vice. Topics of discussion were the decreasing use at branch three libraries, whether or not the taxpay- er is getting value for the money and what is reasonable to pay, material costs and how to set realis- tic priorities within the library sys- tem and the county. The suggestions were then given to the county representatives for consideration in setting a strategic plan. With regards to the decreasing use, Ms Ross said that actions in the past, such as the protests in Bel- grave over the suggested closing of its library, have indicated how much people value their library. "I don't know how it (decreasing use) will be resolved. This is just a start to finding answers," she said. "The library board will have to make decisions on the information and county restraints facing them. When you set priorities inevitably someone isn't going to be happy," she said. She noted some suggestions as being the re-allocation of county tax dollars. A few people, she said, thought that taxes could be in- creased, while others suggested user fees, fundraising, donations and the use of volunteers as Youth gets probation A Londesboro-area youth was given a suspended sentence and probation after appearing before provincial court Judge R.G.E. Hunter in Wingham Oct. 20 for forging a signature on a withdrawal slip. The account, which was in trust to Ted Vanderlei, RR1, Londes- boro, was in the name of his moth- er. Mr. Vanderlei signed a $75 withdrawal on the account on Fri- day, July 2, Crown Attorney Robert Morris told the court. Police were notified by the bank manager and Mr. Vanderlei was charged. Defense asked Judge Hunter consideration be given to the small amount and the fact that the ac- count was in trust to Mr. Vanderlei. Mr. Vanderlei received a 12 month probationary period.

"Many suggestions have over- lapped at the meetings and those will be the ones that are seen as having merit. They are sending a clear message to us," she said. Ms Ross says it is anticipated that the report will be ready for the Nov. 15 meeting of the board for discussion. HONOUR THE PAST...
