Village receives land and bleachers
By Helen Owen
When the Village
Council' met on July. 8
-they were %nfb:rrned that-
the deeding of the land on
Victoria Street had now
been executed. As
reported on May 7, .Mrs.
Myrtle Robinson had
announced her intention
of gifting this land to the
village, and Council
expressed their ap-
preciation of this tran-
sfer.
The village had also
received the. gift of a set
of three tiered portable
bleachers from 'Mr.
Johnson of the Bayfield
Building Centre, together
with an. offer to transport
the..ra--/--as and when
required.
Councillor Chapman
reported that prompt.
action by the Scouts had
resulted in clearance of
the beach following the
last meeting of Council,
and this community
participation by the
younger members of the
community was much
appreciated.
Concern related to the
washroom • ac-
commodation was ap-
parently still uppermost
in the minds of some,
sections ofthe com-
munity. However, the
Council .had done its
utmost to improve things,
and the matter ad been
the su `jec.t of a . meeting

reported on- May 19).
Provision of facilities, in
compliance.- with public
health provisions existed,
and while fulfilling a need
on the one hand,
problems •had already
arisen due to vandalism
and abuse. ,
A vacancy had arisen
in the Fire_ Department,
and Don Warner, the Fire
Chief, attended the
meeting with a recom-
mendation - that Council
should make a new ap-
pointrnent from among
the applications which
had been received.
Council approved. the
appointment of George
Clemente. It was also
confirmed that, following
a meeting with the Fire
Area' Board, that the
basic pay of firefighters
would remain unaltered,
but an increase of $2 per
hourhad been agreed for
attendance at fires.
Correspondence

Council would be advised
of` proposals., in due

Council'sawareness
had again been drawn to
the concern of the village
with regard to violation of
by-laws by infringements
and casual trading. Steps
to d'ontrol such matters
were being taken con-
stantly; and offenders
warned of the con-
sequences which they
might incure.
A letter from the
Cor=poration of Latchford
requested the support of
the Council for a
resolution which they had
sent to the Ministry of.
Education. This related
to the extravagant use of
bus transport for children
As mentioned on June
19, Council had approved
the proposed geological
study • of the .Goderich
Area Landfill Committee.
Government funding was
being made available for
this purpose• which would
also be extended to cover
a hydrological project.
Council had also
received a request from
the a AusabTie-Bayfield
Conservation Authority,
who in order to assist
them in their work on
erosion control, required
details of land title,
records and maps.
In order to reduce
administrative costs, the
County of Huron Board of
Education had written to
the Council proposing
that in future payments

rather than an ,annual
basis. ,
In effect such a scheme
would appear to place an
increased burden on the
village in that it would
require an adjustment of
the mill rate, quarterly
collection of taxes and the
possibility of .acquiring a
loan (plus the interest),
in order to meet such an
arrangement. Council
agreed that they -were
quite satisfied with the
existing systems for the
collection- of taxes and
payment of contribu;tions
to the Board of
Education.
As might be expected,
from time .to time the
Council is criticized for
its actions - or apparent
delay in taking action,
but perhaps it would
provide some insight into
