The Grand Bend council meeting on Monday was particularly lively as several controversial issues were discussed. Considering to move in camera for a discussion concerning the .large highway -spanning banner which was installed for the Scatchered` Invita- tional Classic Golf tournament, coun- cillor Bruce Woodley vetoed that, say- ing "no... let's talk about it publicity." Councillor Dennis Snider im- mediately spoke to outline the se- quence of events leading up to the pro- posal that the Village would assume one third of the estimated $1200 cost. while Chamber of Commerce and David Scatcherd would each con- tribute another one third. Since Snider was told that three weeks were required to produce such a sign he did not bring the matter to council at the meeting two weeks ago. A memo brought to this meeting and introduced by Reeve Green, ask- ing that the council pay Marge's Signs then collect the other monies from the Chamber and Scatcherd caused great concern for Green. Ile feared the Chamber may not be able to pay if Burgerfest should be rained out, and did not want to take on the role of col- lection agency. It appeared that chairman Bob Sharen of the Chamber of Commerce approved the one-third split of costs in principale and the go-ahead was given to Marge's Signs to do the work on very short notice. Councillor Mar- sha Lemon was opposed to bringing this to a vote now because it was "post -facto" arguments were considered, it was the banner be stored with the PUC for A request for approval for a food moved by councillor Woodley that the use in future years; and that it be in- vending cart on the corner of Main Village send a cheque for one third of stalled in the future, closer into the and Huron Sts. was refused to Kathy the cost of the banner to Marge's town (not at the edge of Stephen Brown.
