Some of the apprehension expressed by Grand Bend council was dispelled by Mort Moffatt, regional director of Small Craft Harbours, a divi- • sion of Fisheries and Oceans. Council had been worried that Grand Bend ratepayers would be stuck with the bill for cost sharing in future maintenance of the harbour. He said that his department explains, to a community, the opportunities and it's up to the community to decide what is wanted. "Harbour charges should cover cost of im- provements. The important thing here is you're going to improve a harbour. It should not be a drain on the taxpayers." He mentioned other har- bours where improvements had not used local tax money. He said that Grand Bend needed much more "quality" docking and that charges should be increased only to the point where they would not compete with private marina owners. Moffatt en- couraged the group to in- vestigate other improved harbours. Ralph Ferguson Lambton Middlesex) (MP said that since the first meeting in Grand Bend May 8 he has been closely involved with Moffatt looking at the Grand Bend harbour. He said he hoped tenders for dredging would be set in a week. The government will pay for dredging this year and follow a cost-sharing program in the future. "We're looking further than just dredging. We're looking down the sides of the piers to assess berthing and increase tourist facilities - possibly a small building with washroom facilities for tourists and perhaps in the future some customs service." "Perhaps we will end up with an entrance less prone to the vaguerities of the weather. We intend to go ahead with a preliminary model study." Moffatt said that if the study proved that a breakwall could help with the erosion problems to the south and the sand build-up to the north it would probably be made of huge armour stone forming a 'rubble pile' in the lake. He added, however, that the study might prove that "the sand is so mobile it wouldn't be feasible. Moffatt said the study would cost about $15,000 (of which the Grand Bend group would be expected to pay 1,3) . Ferguson commented that he had verbal agreement for ,government funding. Further improvements mentioned by Moffatt were groins along the north side of the north pier and alde more groin to docking spa the south of the south pier creating a basin to accom- modate 150 boats. The area is government owned. He explained that the usual bodies to oversee a communi- ty marina were either parks boards or harbour commissions. • Representing the Grand Bend Yacht club and Southcott Pines Park Association, Russ Lingard read letters endorsing im- provements to the harbour. "Any development to the Grand Bend harbour which will increase boater utiliza- tion and provide greater safe- ty on the water can dq nothing but enhance our community. Toward this end, the Southcott Pines Park Association, as an interested party of local residents, sup- ports any move in that direction." The letter from the Grand Bend Yacht Club to' Reeve Bob Sharen stated "The Grand Bend Yacht Club en- courages the establishment of a governing body, composed of local interested 4 oups which would serve to provide leadership in the general direction of development and oversee control of our primary natural resource. GRAND BEND Grand Rend 23L-2512 We reserve the right to limit quantities. The Grand Bend Yacht Club would be pleased to serve on such a body." Mac Dunlop, president of the Grand Bend and area Chamber of Commerce, who chaired the Saturday meeting, asked that represen- tatives of the various groups attending put together a com- mittee and report' directly back to Ferguson. Ferguson asked that each represen- tative go back to his or her group and find members for the new body. Members on the new com- mission will be from Grand Bend council, Grand Bend Cruising Club, Yacht Club, Manore and Snider Marines, Southcott Pines, Chamber of Commerce and the local Pro- perty Lovers Association. Moffatt told the group that the best way to proceed was to work closely with Federal and Provincial members. He said that the province has several types of funding available. MPP Lorne Henderson represents the area at Queen's Park.
