Goderich and Clinton branches under- went extensive renovations and a new branch of the library opened in Kingsbridge. The year's activities were highlighted in the 1984 annual report issued by the Huron County Public Library Board. The 29 branches of the library in Huron County sponsored several ac- tivities especially for children with funding from Outreach Ontario and Canada Council. Puppet shows, storytelling programs, special guests, andfilms attracted over 1,000 adults and children. A booklist was compiled of library holdings of interest to new and expec- tant parents for use at Huron County Health Unit prenatal classes. The boundaries of the areas of regional library service were altered to create fewer, larger regions in 1984 with the passage of the Public Libraries Act. The disruption of the county's. library services were kept to a minimum as major organizational changes were made and Huron Coun- ty Library became a member of On- tario Library Service - Saugeen ( formerly Midwestern Regional Library System. ) The annual report shows the 1984 library budget at $747,536. Throughout the year Huron Coun- ty Public Library lent books to 26.451 borrowers among the 29 branches. The population served by the system was 56,084 based on the 1983 popula- tion figure. The County of Huron paid $9.88 per capita for library service. From each dollar the largest portions were spent on salaries (44 per cent ) and books ( 22 per cent). The remainder was divid- ed among other expenses such as rents, benefits and administration. County council to• expropriate fluron County council will be going ahead with expropriation proceedings against a Brampton man. County engineer Bob Dempsey said the road department has received of- ficial word from Stuart Keyes of Brampton that he wants to go through the whole expropriation process. The county's original plan was to expropriate about I.5 acres of land in Tuckersmith Township so it can go ahead with the construction of Coun- ty Road :1 between Egmondville and Brucefield. The majority of the 32 landowners along the 9.3 km stretch of road to be constructed have settled with the county at a price of $2,400 per acre. Dempsey said originally three farms were involved in the expropria- tion procedures. Stuart Keyes. in con- junction with his sister. Ruth Carter of Woodstock and brother Merton Keyes of RR 4. Seaforth own part lot 29. conc. 6. the only parcel of land outstanding. Merlon Keyes. sole owner of two parcels of land. part of the east half of lot 30. conc. 4. London Road survey and part of lot 31. conc. 5. London road survey. has, since the beginning of .lay, settled with the county. Dempsey said the hold up is that Stuart Keyes Wants the $2.400 per acre plus $12 a rod for the fence on the property. The engineer said the fence is "virtually nonexistent". "He's from the Brampton area where land value may be higher." said Dempsey Trying toexplain in his own words why there is a hold up. "Ile doesn't feel the public pressure which makes some difference."
