Times Advocate, 1984-11-21, Page 8(DELl SPECIALS BTUs , SETTER THAN CLASSES - The children of Exeter Public School are enjoying their hour of skating on Fridays during the month of November. Poor attendance at meeting to discuss private phones Only 70 of an invited 360 people attended a public meeting held by the Tuckersmith Municipal Telephone Company on November 12 to discuss their future plans to turn their pre- sent lines into private line. The Tuckersmith Com- pany, which is one of 30 in- dependent telephone com- panies in Ontario, is now operating in its 75th year and serves 360 people. According to Manager, Secretary - Treasurer Mel Graham, the 210 miles of cable are, "Full or getting full...I'd say 90 per cent of the cables are full now." The company is proposing to put in enough cable so every customer will have a private line. This will involve an additional 21.75 miles of cable. Presently there are ap- proximately 40 private business and 70 private residential lines, four business and 60 residential two-party lines, and four business and 173 residential four -party lines. The costs to • the Tuckersmith Municipal Telephone Company customers are determined ac- cording to the distance they are from the operation. Mr. Graham hopes that this will change. "At the present time, those that live the furthest away pay $30 - $35. With the private lines the average cost should be around $12." The business office of the company has moved into the Stanley Township Complex in September after being in the home of Mr. Graham for 21 years. Their work centre is jden Next Sunday, November 25 is the annual Christmas dinner for residents and their families. It is a busy time for all the staff. On Monday morning, in- terested residents gathered in the chapel for Bible study. Monday evening, movies were shown, namely, "this is Stompin' Tom" and "This Land Australia". On Tuesday morning, a good number of residents par- ticipated in exercises. Marc and Eileen Chalut chaperon- ed a bus load of residents on Wednesday afternoon when they visited Finnigan's in Grand Bend for afternoon tea. The Crediton Women's In- pitor NEW SKILL Rosemary Ferguson stands behind two cakes she decorated after completing a two-week course in Toronto.

Township of Hay NOTICE Final Instalment of 1984 Municipal Taxes are due for payment on or before NOVEMBER 30, 1984 JOAN DUCHARME CLERK -TREASURER TOWNSHIP OF HAY located in Brucefield. The private line proposal must be presented to the On- tario Telephone Service Com- mission, a government body which regulates the indepen- dent companies, for approval. Since the reaction from those present at the meeting was positive, Mr. Graham hopes that plans will be approved and work can get underway in the spring. /mpie$ stitute sponsored the November birthday party on Tuesday evening. A program of violin and piano music and group singing was very much enjoyed by the residents. It was 'followed by refreshments. Birthday gifts were provided courtesy of the Ladies Auxiliary. Residents having birthdays during the month of November are Mrs. Maureen Webb and Mr. Fer- dinand Haberer. We extend our appreciation to Duard McAdams for the generous donation of delicata squash and Winnifred Kipper for the beautiful Diefenbacia plant. Also to Harold Erb for picking up and delivering the films which are shown on Monday evenings. Since Mr. Erb will not be making this trip to Goderich during the winter months, we are look- ing for anyone who might volunteer to either pick up or deliver (or both) the films for us at least for the winter months. If you can assist, please call the office. We were happy to have the little children from the Huron Hope School on Friday mor- ning. Friday evening, we had our usual good turnout for the bingo. Any groups interested in presenting programs for the Christmas season please con- tact the office. The Sunday evening chapel service was conducted by Rev. Bob Matheson of Thames Road United Church. Stanley to halt traffi A bylaw passed by Stanley council at their November meeting will require east and west bound traffic to come to a complete stop at the in- tersection of concession 2 and concession 3, by lots 10 and 11. According to Clerk Mel Graham, the roads, which lead to Hully Gully, present- ly have yield signs, but heavy traffic has forced council to change the present signs to stop signs. Grants A total of $7,000 recreation funds will be given to five sur- rounding municipalities. It was decided that the villages of Zurich and Bayfield, as well as the towns of Clinton and llensall will receive $1,500 each. Vanastra will receive $1,000. It was also decided that a grant of $400 will he given to the Federation of Agriculture for the year of 1984. Tile Drainage Council passed a bylaw giv- ing out a total of $29,000 to five individuals for tile drainage loans. They also received three new applications totall- ing $23,000. 1+ Hay and Exeter on The first matter of discus- sion when Hay township coun- cil met for its second regular November session was the meeting with Exeter council on November 12 to attempt to reach a compromise regar- dtng Exeter's objection to a zoning change for Huron Farms, just beyond the town's northern boundary. Hay has not yet received in writing a set of proposals drafted by Exeter after the Hay representatives had left, but Hay clerk Joan Ducharme was informed in a phone call from Exeter clerk Elizabeth Bell that Exeter proposes allowing the six front lots to be zoned agriculture -commercial now, and the remaining eight lots be put in a holdin_gcategory for the present, to be dealt with and zoned on an in- dividual basis as a specific re- quest for development of a lot is submitted. Exeter council was still working with their adviser, Jean Monteith, on acceptable types of development. Reeve Lionel Wilder, while emphasizing that Hay does not yet have the formal pro- posal, said that if Exeter in- sists on fragmenting the development, and the sub- divider has 'to go to the other council every time a potential business shows interest in be- ing part of Huron Farms, then perhaps the matter should be decided by the OMB. Wilder said "We are not the subdivider, but we have to make the la a, and the sub- divider has to sign the agree- ment. If it is too restrictive, he may just say "the heck with it". Wilder added that if Hay has to make rules over and above the township's secon- dary plan only to accom- modate Exeter, then "Let's put the secondary plan to the test." In other business, only the interested parties and Patty White from the county plann- ing department appeared at the public meeting portion of council when two official plan amendments were dealt with. Frank Moore and his solicitor were told Hay had no objection to an amendment changing the St. Joseph Shore subdivision designation from recreational urban to allow permanent residences to develop and exist in that area. The lands along the ravine will remain as natural en- vironment. The existing parkland will be retained. The proposed change will in effect enlarge the boundaries of the village of St. Joseph to include the subdivision. Gary and Leo Masse and their solicitor attended as a result of a severance applica- tion for the two Masse homes at blocks B and C, plan 534. Rather than setting an undesirable precedent by changing the seasonal designation to urban and collision course recognizing permanent residences, appooss secon- dary plan ameendrnent would change the land division policies for areas designated for recreation when a residence has been used on a full-time basis. The policy amendment would allow for severance of the property. Council had no objection. Both amendments will be Varna birthday By Mary Chessell Mr. Fred Reid of Clinton, who was born and raised near Varna and lived for many years on the Reid homestead, celebrates his 90th birthday today, November 21. On Sun- day his daughters and husbands - Anna and Bruce Keys, Ruby and Gordon Hill and Doris and George Cantelon - hosted a birthday party for him at his home. Eight of his ten grandchildren and their families came with their good wishes. Unable to attend were George and Lin- da Smith of Belleville and Stuart and Barbara Barden of Burnaby, B.C. Mr. Reid was pleased that all his nieces and nephews were able to come, as well as several nieces and nephews of the late Mrs. Reid, the former Rebecca McGowan. A smorgasbord dinner was enjoyed by all. His birthday cake was decorated by his great grand -daughter Marion Hunt. Mr. Reid maintains his own home and is fortunate to enjoy excellent health. This, no doubt is due partly to the TLC he receives from his daughters, who visit him daily. An open house for neighbours, former neighbours and more distant relatives was planned for to- day, Wednesday. The cake for it is being made and decorated by Helen Keys, a grand -daughter-in-law. on the agenda of the Huron County planning department this Thursday, and on the tun county council agenda the following week. Hay council will submit its opinions concerning wetlands management to the ministry of natural resources, as re- quested. Councillors agreed they are not opposed to designating some land as wetlands, but individual pro- perty owners are not being recognized. "It almost takes away a farmer's right to (arm. There is too much government in- volvement", Councillor John Elder remarked. Council will ask for a list of designated areas, and tell the ministry the proposed guidelines, which would have to be included in Hay's zoning by-laws, would create incom- patible use of private land. Ducharme informed coun- cil she has just learned that the township's debt load capacity must not exceed $700,000, and $40,000 has already been committed to construction of the ball dia- mond. This means the township can not borrow the more than two million dollars necessary for construction of a new water system. This came as a shock to council, who will have to devise some other way of raising the money if approval to build is obtained. Even if everyone who voted in favour of the pipeline paid their share in advance, the money required would still exceed Hay's debt capacity. Selling debentures was one solution proferred. Council will meet with the project's consulting engineer Burns Ross and two men from the ministry of inter- governmental affairs to see what can be done. Larry Snider will be notified that Hay is not in- terested in accepting the deed to a ravine on part lot 32, Lake Road West concession. Tony Bedard told council he is hosting an informal meeting with some of the rec representatives on neighbour- ing councils to draw up an agenda for a meeting of all representatives and rec com- mittee members. Problems such as arena deficits, the share paid by municiplities, possible imposition of a user - pay system, and how to raise needed funds will all be aired at the general meeting. Council will switch td day meetings beginning December 3 at 10:00 a.m. zehrs fine markets... of fine foods WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO LIMIT PURCHASES STORE SLICED z&w COOKED HAM 2 79b VtSKING OR PARA 6.15/kg SUPER SPECIAL SUPER SPECIAL SUPER SPECIAL YOUNG & TENDER "FAMOUS FOR QUALITY" FRESH SCHNEIDERS SIDE PORK ALL BEEF SPARERIBS STEAKETTES 3.51 /kg 500 g PKG.
