LACAC committee getting flack
by Dor s'Hunter
,,0 The LACAC committee has
now been convened. Some 1,75
ratepayers were concerned
enough to sign a petition
requesting this., and 30 of
them went to Bayfield
Couneil to present •their
petition.
• Four of the nine members
appointed by council laSt.
gust were brave enough to
pear, along with Reeve Ed
ddleifson and advisor
Nicholas Hill, just to make a
quorum.
The committee has also
received a lot of flack. It has
been said .;that the committee
is controversial and it's
better not to be in it. Others
have said that they don't want
anyone telling them what to
do with their own homes. It's
4 also been said that those
summer people would like us
to live in log houses and
they're only here for two
months of the year. Some say
that young people aren't
interested in those old houses
and anyway those houses
could just fall down.
That is what the committee
has heard, just for openers,
and in all honesty tend to
8• a ree with some of it.
n the other side of .the
, all will agree that our
village is beautiful. Most of
the homes in Bayfield are
privately owned and so well
cared for, each possessing
wseal individuality.
Yesteryear "summer
people" closed their doors on
Thanksgiving Day not to
• return until the following May
and one small boy noted,
"They don't -even go, down to
Honey's."
Hence the year round
community only came to
know a few of them.
Today, one cottage after
a4other is being converted
into winter homes and the
"summer people" come on
Ito weekends through the winter
and 'they are here to stay as
permanent residents like
Gwen Pemberton,. Rob :and
Doris Hunter, Jack and Peg
Tillman and this year the
Beatty's.- We may live in
glorified cabins .but, we
certainly have all the
amenities.
As for the young people, we
can't define young too
clearly, but Kelso Fitzsimons
has just purchased the old
MacGregor " house from
Donnie Hat for his bride.
Arch and Ruth Andrew have
the Maggie Scotchmer house
and Fraser and Mary Ellen
Fellows have bought the
Johnston cottage and so it.
gsses,, new life in old
dYvellings.
Arch and Ruth Andrew love
their new home and wouldn't
part with the Victorian
treilage or the lovely peeked
eaves. They would love to
know where that unique glass
in their front door came from.
It has the rose, the sham-
rock, the thistle and the leek
on it .< How lovely patriotism -
was.
Please close the door gently
4
when calling on the Andrews.
Rob artd•'Doris Hunter are
most happy to have their
aged dwelling designated by
the conservatory groups.
Their daughters resisted any
changes to the house, even
their seven-year-old daughter
wants Bayfield House, to stay
that way: There is youth
interested in old houses. �'
Arch Andrews said yes,
'when asked if he would
consider having his house to
be designated.
Now, we all love the Main
Street as it was three years
ago, we shake our heads over
the changes anti watch with
apprehension any building on
it. We do know, more or less,
that people have to live in
comfort in their homes.
Bill Gammage is building,
but he is doing so at the back
of his store and is wondering
what else he can do to make
his property fit into the
scenery.
Pat and Wynn Graham did
such a good Job of expanding
their store last year,. no one
can see it from the street.
Surely a., man like Doug
Sinnamon must be trying his
best, to make his extension fit
into the streetscape. Really
until now, that block has been
the one unspoiled in the
business section. The store is
so attractive with its nise new
paint job and we are sure that
the Sinnamons ' are well
aware of this and of public
opinion.
The LACAC committee
would value your opinions. Do
talk to any member and come
with constructive
suggestions.
Meanwhile, .look around
you. Have you looked under
the trees in front of Walter
Westlake's and admired that
lovely treilage? How the red
color enhances it on the grey
building.
