Will set up local commission
Haider harbour Impr.v.meat
A Harbour Commission for
Grand Bend became a reali-
ty, Saturday; Representatives
of concerned area groups and
businesses met at Oakwood
Inn with Federal Government
officials to work out a way in
which to proceed with har-
bour improvements.
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.
