Even Lucan council is not sure of just where the northern boundary of the village is. They do know within a few yards, but decided at the monthly meeting Monday to contact a surveyer to tell them just where the boundary is. Although not a major concern, both Biddulph Township and Lucan wish to know clearly where the boundary is located. In reporting for the arena board, councillor Larry Hotson said the proposed renovation project to the arena needs sup- port. He said four letters were sent out to the municipalities in- volved, Lucan, Biddulph, London and McGillivray Townships, but none replied. He said he felt if Lucan council backed the project, "we could sell the other three." Council approved a 45 percent share in the costs of the renovations, but was reassured by Hotson that a dime wouldn't be spent until they know everything about it. He said meetings would be held to determine needs of the areas and groups involved. Hotson also said he doesn't expect anything concrete to be started on the project until "a year from this fall." For a time at the meeting, Lucan council was very con- cerned over garbage removal from the village. Cecil Lewis, who holds the garbage pick-up contract, told council he would be forced to discontinue the service if he cannot secure continuing con- tracts with the areas he now serves. He said the other areas are concerned over the increase in costs. However, he pointed out that the increased cost to Lucan was lower because of the close proximity to the dump site. Another factor keeping the costs lower for the village, he said, was it took less time to get a full load there, than in rural areas. It was also mentioned that other townships had tried to find their own dump sites, but were unable to. At present the dump site serving Lucan is 80 acres in size, with three acres already full Lewis said about one acre per year is used. Councillor Norm Steeper said, "we are getting a good deal," from Lewis. Councillor Harry Wraith wondered about joining with neighboring municipalities and doing their own garbage collection. Councillor Hotson said, "anything a government can do, a private enterprise can do cheaper." Councillor Gary McFalls backed this statement, and estimated the price Lewis charges would not even cover the cost of wages for the village to do it themselves. At present it was stated, it costs Lucan about $10 per capita for garbage pickup annually. Council agreed to accept the increased costs until the end of the year. Hotsonland McFalls were made a special committee to set the date for the annual spring clean- up. Another question arose, con- cerning the water rates of hairdressers who operate out of a private residence. All council members agreed such a business r PENNY SALE AT ST.

However, theyk decided to double the water rate of such establishments effective June 1, 1975. Since the apartment over the municipal building has been vacant, several have applied to council for tenancy. One group was the Pre-school Association of Lucan. At present, they are operating from St. Patrick's school. Because of a potential noise problem with the 15 children, council turned down their application but thanked the group for their interest. The other applications willabe culled over and a tenant selected. In the correspondence, the Ontario Municipal Board asked Lucan council to carefully con- sider their annual capital ex- penditures. The Middlesex 4-H leaders club was given a donation of $30 for their fair, in conjunction with Western Fair. Two tickets, totalling $17.50 were purchased for the retirement dinner of Len Morris of the Treasury, Economics and Inter -governmental affairs London office.
