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. Hume, because u y in Inc time the lettert o IIf from planner Zelinka was received he lost the opportunity to purchase one building. Councillor Ben Hoogenboom, a member of the planning advisory board said this matter ,had never been on their agenda. He added,"1 know now it is of ex - Two convicted for driving without licence Four convictions were registered .under the.. Highway Traffic Act when J.P. Doug Wedlake presided in court in Exeteron March 29. Two Men were forfnd'guilty.of driving while their licenses were. 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.

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.
