In response to a request for street lighting by residents living m the area fronting on Highway 4 in the southern section of the village who became part of Hensall by annexation, Reeve Harry Klungel suggested putting lights on existing hydro poles, rather than installing new ones at an estimated cost of $3,000 each.

The residents in the area will receive copies of the MTC letter to council refusing an initial request for financial assistance with street" fighting, as that stretch of road has an excellent safety record, homes are set well back, and no current problem exists. MTC gave similar reasons for refusing to consider installation of a cautionary blinker light at the in- tersection of Highways 4 and 84.
