The final milestone report was dis- cussed and when North Huron, the Municipality of Morris/Turnberry and the Knights of Columbus have signed it the Ministry will release the last 10 per cent of their funding. The committee recommended to council that they sign a five-year service agreement with Cimco Refrigeration to maintain the refrig- eration plant at the community com- plex and to install the ice tempera- ture controller system. Further it was recommended that Delta Elevator be. retained to service the elevators at the complex and town hall. Bill McGrath, George Henhoeffer and Dennis McGwynn representing the Knights of Columbus discussed the pledge towards the Wescast Complex. McGrath stated that although they had originally allotted 10 years over which to complete their pledge of $550,000, they hope to have it paid off in five. They did not wish to lock themselves into a five-year schedule due to the uncer- tainty of their fundraising. He said the Knights had con- tributed $10,000 towards their pledge plus had already spent over $100,000 to outfit the kitchen with a fridge, stove, freezer, dishwasher, dishes and cutlery, as well as tables and chairs for the lounge. He said the next installment would be coming in April of 2002. Also when the Knights sell some property they own, a substantial payment Would be made. Clerk-Administrator John Stewart said other pledges had been made over a five-year period. Councillor Jeff Howson said he did not believe that the municipality should assume the- responsibility of carrying the long-term debt for the Knights' con- tribution. * ** Stewart asked for a twp. credit card because at present he has to use his own for twp. business. This will be considered by council. *** It was recommended that the direc- tor of recreation and facilities be given permission to sign agreements not to exceed five years or $5,000 per year after council has approved the signing by motion. Contracts and agreements .exceeding this must be signed by the reeve and/or clerk administrator. * * * It was recommended that addition- al funds be placed in the 2002 parks operating and capital budgets for development and maintenance of Galbraith Park for soccer. *** Jane Lane, the manager of Child Care Services stated that a landscape design had been approved by the Ministry for Wingham Day Care. Stewart said that because there was only $9,000 to spend, the playground equipment would have to wait for next year. .
