T -A photo • • Feel. village lighting costs high - By Shelley McPhee The cost of street lighting in the villages of Kippen, Brucefield and Varna may seem small peanuts when • compared to larger municipality centres, but Stanley Towinship council. members feel that the yearly costs are high enough and they plan to tell Ontario Hydro so. At Stanley council's January 3 . meeting, members agreed to inform Ontario hydro that they ob- ject to the increase of eight percent on the street lighting rate. The new increase went into effect at the start of the new year. Township Clerk Met Graham noted that presently -street lighting in the . three villages costs the township approximately $1,000 a year. With the eight percent in- crease, the costs will rise by $80. In other business, council paid Ken Parke $175 to cover the loss of an ewe, killed recently by wolves. While many area townships have reported wolves this season, Clerk Graham said that in Stanley livestock kill- ings by wolves have not been a serious problem for the last two years. Permission was given to 'Paul Steckle, Clarence Rau, John Coleman and Howard Armstrong to attend a municipal drainage course in Guelph. The township will pay the $75 registration fee for each.
