County engineer Don Pletch explained that once the asphalt was removed, it became evident that more work would be needed than the original estimate. The planning, agriculture and public works committee had recommended council allot an additional $110,000 including contingency, to complete the repairs. The money would come from the budget allocation for "unforeseen circumstances". But Huron East councillor 'Bernie Terry Higgins, Kent Cleland, Clive Edmonds, Mike Dauphin, Brian Kieller and Don Martin. Burial was in Brussels Cemetery. The family expresses thanks to the wonderful staff at Huronlea for their compassionate care given to Jean and to Rev. Cathrine Campbell for her may visits. Memorial donations may be made' to Melville Presbyterian Church, Huronlea Auxiliary or the charity of one's choice.

"Is this putting the roads budget in a loosey-goosey position?" he wondered. Treasurer Dave Carey suggested that the overage be covered from within the roads budget for the time being and that if at the end of the year the roads department was over budget, then look at the "unforeseen circumstances" fund. But South Huron. councillor Ken Oke didn't agree. "We shouldn't even be discussing it," he said. "We started it (the bridge repair). We need to fix it properly." Council approved the original motion to budget $110,000 extra for repairs.
