Ret. 444/88, Form 9 • Exeter Town Hall clock tower in need of restoration, says Heritage foundation EXETER - The Old Town Hall's clock tower is in need of restoration and a new roof, the Exeter and District Heritage Foundation reports. The Old Town Hall was reshingled a couple of years ago with cedar shingles, the extra expense of which was a major subject of debate at council. The Foundadon wants to complete that work with restoring -the clock tower, which still has the old red ashpalt shingles on its peak. When first built, the Old Town Hall had a cedar shingle roof, which was changed to asphalt in later years. ' "The committee has some funds and they would like to have a commit- ment from us toassist on a capital basis," mayor Bruce Shaw told council. last Tuesday evening. Councillor Ben Hoogenboom said he would like to see an outline of the costs involved before committing town funds to the project. "We need to know a little bit more than just a letter," said Hoogenboom. Council agreed to seek more details from foundation chairman Bob Hey- wood at an upcoming executive meeting. "If the committee is looking for a commitment in '93, I would say they are out of luck," said councillor Bob Spears, referring to the already -tight town budget. Shaw said if the tower was restored this fall, the bills might not be due until the new year, and next year's budget. "But iffwe're talking about this budget, there's no money," said Spears. "Right," agreed Shaw. Councillor Dave Urlin asked whether transformer equipment would ever be removed out from behind the hall, as discussed in past years. Shaw, who also sits on the PUC commission, said that may happen, but g robably not for a few years. He also said those plans might change if On- 4ario Hydro goes ahead with a proposal to take over smaller utilities like Exeter's. • Times -Advocate, September 15,1993 feklen 23 October is Seat Belt month OPS will be stepping up watch for unbuckled drivers EXETER - October is Seat Belt Month once again, and the Exeter OPP say they will be -en- forcing safety belt requirements on local roads. A $90 fine faces those caught not buckled up - and police say the money would probably be better spent somewhere else. Arguments from motorists who say they would rather be thrown clear of an accident don't hold water, says OPP constable George Finch. He asks motorists to imagine being "thrown clear" when their was rolling down a bank side- ways. The chances of being struck by a post or tree, or being caught up in or rolled on by the car are great. Those who hope to "brace themselves" by holding onto the steering wheel in an impact are also mistaken. "Imagine catching an object your size and weight while it is travelling that speed (80 km/h) and you are standing still," says Finch, who added that cars to- day are designed to protect their occupants, but only if they are belted in. "Children who are not buck- led in become human projectiles even at low speeds," said Finch. The driver of a car is respon- sible for occupants under the age of 16 years. Infants (less than nine kilos) are to be fas- tened in an approved rear facing child restraint system. Toddlers ( nine -18 kilos) are to be fas- tened in an approved child re- straint system if the vehicle is owned, leased or regularly oper- ated by the toddler's parent or guardian. Otherwise they are to be in a pelvic restraint. Preschoolers (18-23 kilos) are to be fastened by the pelvic seat belt assembly. • e candoit!
