EXETER - Town council were wondering Monday evening why promises for universal 911 emer- gency dispatching has yet to be- come a reality in many rural areas of Ontario, Exeter included. The concern was spurred by a pe- tition from the Township of Som - bra to demand the province take over the responsibility of making 911 service Ontario -wide. Some councillors questioned whether the issue was one of plac- ing the costs with municipalities who currently fund 911, or to make the province pay. Others suggested that Bell Canada's virtual monopoly on telephone service in Ontario is at the root of keeping the service too expensive for many areas. "If those of us who have small children were to ask them what the number is to dial in an emergency, they would answer 911," said Ben Hoogenboom, adding that for Exet- er and the surrounding area, that is the wrong answer. Hoogenboom pointed out tele- phone service competition in the U.S. has driven down costs of 1- 800 service for businesses, but said the monopoly of Bell Canada has not done the same in Canada. He speculated the same might apply to 911 emergency service. "I would agree with Ben," said councillor Ervin Sillery. "But the question is who to send it on to. Should it be county -centred or Southwestern Ontario -centred." Klungel wondered if it would make sense to contact Bell and ask them about plans for future 911 ser- vice, and ask if the creation of a larger area of service area might bring costs down. "Did our costs come down when we added so many homes in Exet- r?" commented councillor Doro- hy Chapman. Meeting held for 1 Mt. Carmel CWL MT. CARMEL - At the Octo- ber meeting of the Mt.

Five fined in Exeter Justice of the Peace Court • EXETER - In Justice of the Peace Court in Exeter last Tuesday morning Gerald W. Hynes of Kirkton was fined $253.75 by Justice of the Peace Karen Sturdy and given 30 days to pay af- ter entering a plea of not guilty to a charge of driving without a license. The court heard that the accused was stopped for speeding on Highway 83 on July 11 and could not produce his license. After the oficer ran a check on Hynes' ownership he found his li- cense to have been suspended for unpaid fines. The accused said he was unaware of the suspension, and his li- cense had expired on July 1, 1991 but he hadn't renewed it because his wife usually looks after those things. Unsafe vehicle Christopher G. Dayman of Lucan pleaded guilty to a charge of op- erating an unsafe motor vehicle after being stopped by police on Waterloo St. in Exeter on September 10. The officer inspecting the vehicle found the windshield to be brok- en on the drivers' side, the parking brake seized and worn rear tires. The gas tank was also leaking badly. The plates were seized from the 1979 vehicle, and Dayman was charged $53.75 and given 60 days to pay. Driving under suspension Mary -Jane Totten of Zurich received a fine of $503.75 for driving while under suspension. The accused was stopped August 11 for a noisy muffler, and the officer found that her license had been suspended April 8, 1991 for an indefinite length due to unpaid fines. The accused was given 30 days in which to pay. Car windows coated Colour coating on car windows resulted in a fine of $78.75 for John Scatchard of Grand Bend. The court heard that on August 17 on Highway 21 in Stephen Township, an officer noticed a black chevy half ton truck exiting the Oakwood Inn. The windows were extremely dark and the officer couldn't identify the gender of the driver. The windows on the driv- er and passenger sides, front, back and rear were darkened. Scatchard was given 30 days in which to pay the fine. Speeding Alar T. Petersoo of Mississauga entered a plea of not guilty to a charge of speeding on Highway 83 doing 104 in and 80 km/h zone on June 29. Police told the court that radar registered the car at 124 km/h and was visibly travelling above the speed limit, _The reading stayed on until the vehicle belonging to the accused had passed the officers, at which point they turned and stopped the car. The accused said that there was a car 20 metres ahead of him and another 50 metres behind him, and felt the officer clicked one of them as he was driving a Pontiac 6000 and not a Buick as the ticket claims. The accused did admit that his speed was close to 100 km/h, but said the first vehicle may have obstructed the officer's view of his car. Petersoo was fined $93.75 and given 30 days to pay. 1 ********************************** LARGE CONSIGNMENT AUCTION .
