NOTICE
Of the passing of a Zoning By -Law
by the Village of Grand Bend
TAKE NOTICE that the Council of the Village of
Grand Bend passed By-law 5026 of 1984 on the
23rd day of January, 1984 under section 34 of
the Planning Act, 1983.
AND TAKE NOTICE that any person or agency
may appeal to the Ontario Municipal Board in
respect of the by-law by filing with the Clerk
-of the Village of Grand Bend not later then the
27th day of February 1984, a notice of appeal
setting out the objections, to the by-law and the
reasons in support of the•objection.
In the Village of Grand Bend, particularly in the
Gibb's Park Area(R.P.'s 4 and 9),Heaman Sub-
division (R.P. 3) and the older cottage area
(R.P. 24), there are many existing Iots which
are only 12 metres wide (40 feet) by 24 metres
deep (80 feet). In addition, most of the roads
in these areas are only 40 feet wide. These
areas are zoned "One -Family Residential 1.4
(R1.4) Zone for Registered Plan 4, 9 and 24" and
"One Family Residential 1.2 (R1.2) Zone for
Registered
Plan 3".There are twoprovisions
in By-law 5010/80 which unnecessarily restrict
development on small Tots: Section 5.19b)
which requires that all buildings and structures
be set 10 metres back from the centre -line of
adjoining streets and the minimum rear yard
depth requirements of the R1.4 zone. The pur-
pose of this by -low is to amend these two pro-
visions so that development may occur on ex-
isting vacant Iots in Registered Plans 4, 9, 24
and 3. Section 5.19b) has been amended to ex-
empt Registered Plans 3, 4, 9 and 24 from its
provisions. Also, the minimum rear yard depth
in the R1.4 Zone has been reduced from 7.6
metres to 6 metres.
This by-law conforms to the Village of Grand
Bend Official Plan, as amended.
The complete by-law is available for inspection
in my office during regular office hours. (9:00
to 5:00 p.m.)

United Church
Door greeters Sunday were
Richard and Millie Desjar-
dine. "All My Joy Is Found in
Jesus" was the choir anthem.
Rev. Peebles based his ser-
mon on Jonah 3:1-3; 4:1-11
and then Acts 26:9-18. In
Jonah's message, Rev.
Peebles said that we should
accept anyone who walks in
that door; not turn them away
as he (Jonah) did the first
time God asked him to follow
His rule. °
Chuckwalah,which is an ug-
ly mammal of the lizard fami-
ly, runs and hides himself in
the rocks when danger
threatens. Rev. Peebles told
the children that temptation
is our greatest danger. You
should run too, and move out
of danger's way. Also you
may ask through prayer for
help to avoid it, when you are
tempted to do wrong.
Church of God
Sunday, Rev. Campbell
took his text from 1 Kings
17:8-16 and entitled it, "Lord,
Do You Really Know What
You're Doing?"
After the brook dried up,
God led Elijah to the poor
widow's house. We can find
God's will for our lives
through His word, Holy Spirit,
our minds, Godly counsellors
and circumstances. God
always expects obedience.
The choir sang "I Love Him
Better Everyday."
Dr. A. Brown sang, "Rock
of Ages."
Sunday evening about 30
members travelled to Kit-
chener for the regional ser-
vice at the Pioneer Park
Church of God. The choir

Bonus concort well received
A bonus concert in the cur-
rent series organized by the
Grand Bend Concert Associa-
tion, was well received by the
capacity audience at Grand
Bend United Church Wednes-
day night last week.
Featuring area musicians
and photographers, the pro-
gram has a wide variety of
music, instruments and ar-
tistic approaches to please the
tastes of area residents of all
ages.
Pianist, Robert Enns, a
teacher at North Lambton
Secondary School, com-
mented that the piano duets
played by he and pianist,
Lynn Tremain, were typical
of the sort of entertainment
organized in private homes
for friends and family in the
early part of the century.
In fact, the whole concert
had the relaxed air of family
and friends enjoying their
crafts together.
For the right touch of at-
mosphere, Chantelle Crabe,
young daughter of Associa-
tion president, Dawn Crabe,
displayed her keyboard skills
in two brief pieces.
Music chosen for the con-
cert ranged from the 16th cen-
tury to modern synthesized
accompaniment. Instruments
also represented the history
of the same music. •
Early music was played on
a tiny, keyboard, harpsichord
.type instrument called a
Virginal, by both Enns and
Tremain. Dawn Crabe (in -
spite of a broken right arm)
joined Tremain to play a suite
of short dances with her
recorder, again, 16th century
music.
A Sonata for flute and
piano, written by Telemann in
the 17th century, was played
be Tremain with piano ac-
companiment by Enns. They
played three piano duets, two
Spanish dances by
Moszkowski and a 'pastoral
theme from a contata by
Bach.
Grand Bend soprano,
Roberta Walker, sang two
contemporary songs in the
first partof the program and
later an excerpt from
Handel's Messiah. She was
ae'companied by Enns.
Tom Adams, a student at
North Lambton Secondary
School, provided a light-
hearted interlude with two
pieces of descriptive music
about elephants, played on his
brass tuba. He returned later
in the program to sing two
contemporary "show" pieces.
Photographic slide produc-
tions were presented by
Pinery Park naturalist, Terry
sang their morning piece and
Lori Vincent and Laura
Campbell playeda piano duet.
Crabe and Lambton Heritage
Musetup curator, Robert Tre-
main. All were set to contem-
porary music.
Tremain showed a
documentary, he had put
together from old
photographs, about the rigors
of fishing on the Great Lakes.
Crabe showed one slide pro-
duction featuring winter
scenes in the Pinery Park
area and another which was
'a kaleidoscope of creatures
and natural "things" to be
seen in the wooded setting
around the area.
The last, 10 minute produc-
tion, accompanied by elec-
tronic sound, was a superb
collection of photographs of
the rare and ordinary beauty
contained in the Pinery area.
It was a spectacular finale to
a concert which was describ-
ed as having "something for
everyone".
The concert was organized
by Association president,
Dawn Crabe, and was
presented before an audience
in Bayfield earlier in the
week. Artists volunteered
their time and talent to give
the bonus boost to the series.
Upcoming, on February 8,
at the Grand Bend Church, is
a duo of two prize-winning
young Canadian performers
from the regular Youth and
Music Canada series.
Calling their production
"Entracte" (meaning, in-
terlude), they are Joanne
Geerling, flutist, and William
Beauvais, guitarist. Their
program will include a broad
range of works which is
described as "enchanting,
magical and devilishly
romantic"
