Reeve Bill Mickle said the delay
was "eithci a legislation gap in zon-

-
they wish to redevelop their present
Main and Sanders corner and contin-

Exeter council will be making a
decision Wednesday night after re-
ceiving a request from `Image
Cleaners for a zoning bylaw inter-
pretation.
Len Hume and Jim Hennessey of
▪ Image Cleaners who wish to relo-
cate their dry cleaning plant in an
M2 general industrial zoning area
at the north end of Exeter said they
--object to views made by town
planner Richard Zelinka.
Hume said his firm wishes to es-
tablish a regional fabricare service.
in addition to the present dry clean-
ing services.
Zelinka said in a January 25 letter
said " The plant docs not technically
have a product; rather it provides a .
service for- the maintenance, clean-
ing or treatment of clothing and
other forms of laundry and is not
permitted by the bylaw.
About Zelinka's comments,
Hume said, " He is wrong. The by-
law referred to covers that technacal-
ity. We do not require an end prod-
uct. We are a value added service.
We fit the zoning as it now exists .
Hume's thoughts were backed by
\. C
a letter written by solicitor Kim
McLean. The lawyer said the pro-
posed use complies with the present
zoning and would also apply to pro-
cessing of a textile.

from planner Zelinka was received

member of the planning advisory

Two convicted for driving without licence
Four convictions were registered

when J.P. Doug Wedlake presided
in court in Exeteron March 29.
Two Men were forfnd'guilty.of

suspended.
Paul D. Camuso, 104 Anglesea
St. Goderich, was stopped in.Exet-
er on November 9 with the wrong
plate on a rented car. A check
showed his license had been sus-
pended beginning February 11. for
unpaid fines.
The accused pleaded not guilty,.
saying he had not received notifica-
tion of his suspension, and had not
been aware that a person's licence
could be suspended for defaulting
on fines.
Camuso- was fined $250, and
given six months to pay. -
Vernon Dean- Ireland, R.R 2
Southwold, was tried expand (in
his absence) for driving in Exeter
on January 30 while under indefi-
nite suspension .ince December 4
because of unpaid fines. A fine of
S250 with 30 days. to pay and a
further suspension of six months
were imposed. -
John K. MacDonald, R.R. 2
Burgessvillc, argued that he was
not.specd;ng at 116 kph in an 80
zone on December 7 on Highway
83 in Stephen township. The po-
lice officers gave evidence that
while travelling west they had
opened their radar to a speeding
eastbound vehicle. The first read-
ing was 118, the second 108 and the
radar locked in at 82. They also
observed the front of the vehicle
dropping as though brakes had
been applied.
The police suspected a radar detec=
tor, but found none.
MacDonald said the cruise control
on his rental car was set at 80, and
questioned some of the officers' evi-
dence.
Wedlake said allegations that an
officer had perjured himself were a
serious matter. He accepted the po-
licemen's credibility, and rejected
the accused's statement that he was
only doing 80. .MacDonald was
fined $57.75, which he paid that
day.
Dennis D. Payne, 127 King St.
Hcnsall, was found guilty of driving
with no insurance despite his not
guilty plea. Police were called to a
single vehicle accident in Usbornc
township on Highway 4 north of
Exeter -on January 4, at which time
Payne produced an insurance card
with a valid date
da Post. Commercial Union did re-
ceive a cheque on March 23.
Wedlake found Boland guilty as
charged, and gave him three months
to pay a fine of $500.

on the Trans -Canada Highway as
the reason why PCB transportation
out of the province has been
banned. In response to questions,
about using the London PUC's
PCB storage facility, Zinger stated
present regulations require PCBs to
remain on the owner's property.
"I'm not saying this stuff
shouldn't be stored," said Damcn.
"If the PUC can store this stuff in
London, why can't the University
store it in London?"
In concluding the information ses-
sion, Boyce told those present the
Elginficld observatory site had been
chosen for elevated location, where-
as the sites examined on the Univer-
sity campus had all been on flood-
plain areas, contravening PCB
storage regulations. The high land
around Brescia College was unavail-
able for storage because it is not
owned by the University.
Boyce assured the crowd their con-
cerns would be brought to the ad-
ministration's attention.
"You have conveyed a message,"
he said.
Many citizens in the room ap-
peared dissatisfied with Boyce's as-
surance, but Monday's develop-
ments in the PCB storage question
prove that the meeting did influence
the University's decision to examine
other storage options on campus for
the transformers.
