COMING HOME The traveling road show is coming home. So says Joan Vanderbroeck, chair- man of the Huron County board of education's eduction committee. Last year the committee spent their monthly meeting at various schools around the county, learning the detail on those schools. This year though, because of the distances some trustees would have to travel, Ms. VandenBroeck said the tours have been limited. The committee will visit Brussels public school in March, Colborne Cen- tral public school in April and Seaforth district high school in September. These meetings will be in the afternoon and the regular educa- tion committee meetings, which are open to the public, will be held at the education centre in Clinton in the evening. that the, 198 budget tad been Township Reeve Grant Stirling, exceeded. 1 Brussels Reeve Hank TenPas, ' The results of the recorded vote are Stephen Township Reeve Tom as follows: Tomes; Blyth Reeve Albert Wasson Those voting against the Change and Hay Reeve Lionel Wilder. were: Goderich Deputy Reeve John The library board didn't discuss the Doherty, Exeter Deputy Reeve Lossy matter until Monday, December 10. libraries formed the county system € • back in 1967,°s "Whatever decision is made of coOnty council, I will continue to re- "__ main an employee of the County of ' • Huron.

We've heard there isn't golrmg to be any change in responsibilityy," said Reeve Mickle. He also asked for the cost of chang- ing the librar'y,board to a committee. Council will have 'Middlesex MPP' Doug Reycraft present as a private ' members bill, an application for special legislation which would have Huron County Council act as. the library board and the current library board would, in effect; become a com- inittee of council. . ' This, noted Mickle " requires puhlishiag_fOtice ; in--the-On o= Gazette and cnfmnby newspapers, the' printing of the bill: and being prepared to answer questions from time public after second reading in the provincial legislature. Reading from his statement, Reeve Cunningham. said, "A question has peen raised as to why one of our own MPPs is not presenting the proposed bill. A minister of the crown can not present a private members bill under the rules of the Ontario Legislature. It should be pointed out that Paull Steckle, the 1985 warden, did not ar- range to have Mr. Reycraft present the bill as reported in the press. Ar- rangements were made to have Mr. Reycraft present the bill through the office of the Hon. Jack Riddell. Colborne Township Reeve Russel Kernighan said he wanted the matter/ settled, but added that as he sees it, the library board has never been coml- sidered a prestigious board compared to other committees of council. "When I first came, the road com- mittee was the pium (sic), and the library board, well, it wasn't up there," said Kernighan. Reeves talked about the amount of phone calls they received in the past week and while Goderich Deputy- • Reeve John Doherty said he would, as one of the town's representatives, be voting against the proposal because his constituents asked him to. Turn - berry Township Reeve Brian McBurney took a different approach. He said he talked to the people who called him and explained the situation as he saw it. The Turnberry reeve said his callers saw it from his point - then. "Once they heard both sides of the story. The information they got was biased, that's why they phoned," he said. To continue the questions asked by the reeve of Exeter, the town's depu- ty reeve Lossy Fuller asked ifprovin- cial funding would continue after the change which won't go into effect un - When you open the window yourself, you get fresh air.
