O'Brien, maintenance supervisor at CPRI in Byron, had taken an emergency measures course pertaining to special care in- stitutions, but said many of the advisable steps would also apply to larger places. Coun- ty council is encouraging all municipalities in Huron to prepare plans for emergen- cies. O'Brien said the first step is to set up a committee. This is usually headed by the mayor or reeve. O'Brien stressed the impor- tance of each municipality having a plan tailor-made to its own needs. The next step is to think of every possible disaster. I The fact Zurich is under an airline path, and that large propane trucks go through the village each day were mentioned 1. Facilities for shelter, food, medical help, transportation and communications should be assessed, and alternatives also considered. O'Brien warned councillors to take nothing for granted, but to get everything in writing. Once a plan has been developed, it will do no good sitting on a shelf. O'Brien ad- vised getting as many people as possible involved and in- terested. This would include firemen, police. medical and social services, churches and service clubs. "How many people around this table are prepared for an emergency?", O'Brien asked. O'Brien left copies of a basic outline, and offered to assist wherever possible. Reeve Isadore LaPorte thanked O'Brien for coming. He said council will study the outlined proposals, and he will talk to Reeve Harry Klungel in neighbouring Hen - sail. Klungel has attended the emergency measures course for municipal officials at Arn- prior, and the two municipalities should work together closely on their plans. Council had rr(et in special session June 28 to conSider in- surance tenders. Keith Westlake declared a conflict of interest and left. Tenders from Frank Cowan Co. for $9,201 and from ROMA In- surance for $5,727 were open- ed. Later Tom Smith of the former company and Robert Westlake of Westlake In- surance Brokers Inc. were present to discuss their sub- mission with council. At another special meeting called on July 4, council discussed the ROMA tender with C.M. Duhig representing OME Insurance Brokers Ltd. Council accepted the ROMA tender, as it was the lower premium and provided broader coverage. Council was informed at their regular Thursday meeting that a Cowan representative now wants to examine the winning tender. "That's any taxpayer's right. but I don't like the idea," Councillor Ray McKin- non remarked. "I never g, t a look at other tenders in my business:' After a June 28 meeting of the recreation, parks and community centre board at which tenders were received for fastening down and pain- ting the arena roof, Dan Eli- jah of Lambeth visited Zurich and noted the condition of the roof. He offered to do the job for $2,700, $2,000 less than the previous low tender. Board members - were polled by phone and agreed to award the contract to Elijah. The successful bidder is us- ing screws instead of nails to fasten down the roof, will app- ly a primer before the Tremclad paint, is including the front portion too, and will give an eight-year guarantee. Mike McCann and ,toe Regier. Bluewater Industrial and Commercial Roofing, were awarded the contract to repair the auditorium roof. Percy Bedard's low bid of $2,400 to repair the penalty box was accepted. Arena manager Jerry Rader reported the summer playground program is well underway. Donna Regier and Susan Deichert have been hired to supervise the 30 youngsters registered. Councillor Mike O'Connor thanked Rader for the ex- cellent job he has done in organizing the summer pro- gram, adding he has heard nothing but compliments. O'Gi nnor said the way the program has been handled since it came under the auspices of the rec committee "is a credit to you and to the - �+ .- SANDCASTLE BUILDERS -- Chris Boudreau (left), David Gascho, Chad Desjar- dine and Matt Gascho received first prize ribbons from playground supervisor Donna Regier for building the best sandcastle at the Zurich summer playground.

Councillor Bob Fisher 'in- itiated a motion on behalf of the rec board and ratepayers thanking the Lions Club and the Bean Festival for their gifts and grants to the arena. The Bean Festival has donated $350 to bus children to swimming at Vanastra, and has set aside $5,000 for future arena needs. Fisher authored another motion advising the Ontario government that the blanket terms and regulations now determining waste manage- ment are neither fair nor practical when applied to non - industrialized small municipalities. The motion proposes that either the government allow expansion of existing sites after studies and recommendations done by reputable engineers and approved by the environment ministry, or pay the entire cost (except for land acquisi- tion) if continuing to insist on expensive studies and en- vironmental assessments. The motion will be cir- culated to all small urban On- tario municipalities and land- fill sites to send on to their local MLAs, and to Claude Bennett, minister of in preparing emergency plcsn municipal affairs and hous- ing, and environment minister Andy Brandt. A request from the Eagles Ball Club for permission to O'Brien Doug O'Brien has been named Zurich's nominee as possible recipient of one of the 1984 Ontario bicentennial medals to be awarded to deserving citizens later this year. The life-long resident of the village has been actively in- volved in his community for most of his life. O'Brien was a prime mover in organizing the Zurich Minor Athletic Association, and served as president for the initial two years. He has coached and managed teams for many years, and is still an active member of the Old- timers' Hockey Team. As chairman of the building committee at the time Zurich took over the arena, O'Brien played a major part in the in- stallation of artificial ice. He drew up and donated the plans for the addition. O'Brien has recently com- pleted an unprecedented se- cond one-year term as presi- operate an outdoor bar during the ball tournament September 7, 8 and 9 was turned down. They may have an indoor bar if the ice sur- face is available on those dates. The LLBO has extended the summer hours of the Zurich store to 9: W p.m. on Friday's. medal nominee dent of the Zurich Lions Club. where he has been on the membership roll for 27 years. While attending the regular July session of Zurich council on another matter, -O'Brien thanked council for honouring Oyu- him in this way. He said "This makes me feel very humble. What 1 have contributed is just part of loving my com- munity and being part of it; whatever 1 did was because I wanted to." 4 j MEDAL NOMINEE - Zurich Reeve Isidore LaPorte con- gratulates Doug O'Brien, named Zurich's nominee as possible recipient of a bicentennial medal. but said in their letter sales will be monitored on a con- tinuous basis to ensure the ad- ditional hours are warranted. The Zurich Bean Festival was granted permission to block off the usual streets dur- ing festivities, and part of Vic- toria St. beforehand to set up the midway. Mill St. and Highway 84 can't be blocked; this would intefere with ac- cess to local businesses. A by-law was passed of- ficially enacting the water rates established in January. The penalty for overdue bills was lowered from 10 percent to five, in line with what hydro charges. Works superinteqdent Den- nis Regier reported -the resur- facing of Mill St. has been delayed. It will be done in ear- ly August at the same time as the Catholic school parking lot. Complaints have been received from Spruce Villa residents about trees on private property beside the building obscuring the view. No action is contemplated un- til a letter now on its way from the Iluron County Hous- ing Authority is received. Council will meet again on August 9 NOTICE Effective immediately the Twp. of Stanley Municipal Office has mov- ed to its new location at RR 1 Var- na, Ontario. NOM 2R0.
