Hallowe'en Party at the
Town Hall on Frida
Vill e affairs
by Helen Owen
. Nominations for the Village Council in
:Bayfield, being in excess of the number of vacant
:seats, mean that an election will be required in
erder to select the council members for the
fOrthcoming year.
, The fact that there were enough nominations
standing would seem to indicate the matter is
one of general interest and shows that a genuine
concern exists in the community with regard to
,the direction of its affairs. •
As in any community, large or small, -different
age groups, different concerns and different
viewpoints have to be considered, and the new
council when elected, will find itself confronted
by every aspect of village life,' The make-up of
the 'community is varied - descendants of early
settlers in the area, newcomers and, retired
people who are making the village their per-
. manent home, business people, some of whom
offer their services ydar round, others only
during the summer months, people concerned
with boats, the harbour and fishing, and of
course, the summer visitors, many of whom
appear regularly, year after year, as ,did their
parents and grandparents before them,
Nor is the work of council concerned entirely
with the direct needs of the village, since these
must often be adapted to comply with municipal,
county, provincial and. federal restrictions, and
of course, contained within budgetary
limitations.
Twice monthly meetirigs are only a part of the
chores undertaken by the council members. In
addition they must be prepared to farhiliarize
themselves with the vast amount of literature
arid correspondence which comes into the
municipal office; they Must be prepared to
represent the council at meetings in the area -
and sometimes outside - where it is Of the utmost
importance that village intdrests are upheld,
protected and furthered. Individual applications
to the council for a varity of purposes have to be
considered on their '" merits and within the
, statutory requirements. Complaints must be
investigated,' and answers found to a Wide
variety of problems.
But - the village does have its own council and
it. is a tribute to all those who have carried out
this work over the years that it still functions and
-.perseveres in its efforts to serve the community.
Work on council is a challenge. It makes heavy
demands on patience, time and, energy - and the
_ results axe not always popular. _But this -state of.
affairs is inevitable, and it says much for past
reeves and councillors that they have continued
to fulfill their tasks accepting any criticisms as
an -integral part ofthe-job-they-have-undertaken:
The responsibility for village affairs will
automatically be transferred to the newly
elected reeve and councillors, but - the actual
selection remains 'the responsibility of the
residents in supporting the choices they them-
selves have made. Thus direction and policy are
the concern of all.
Bayfield is a unique village. If it is to maintain
its special characteristics progressive measures
may require ingenuity, patience and discern-
ment. Concern for the present is important, but
only if it is allied with past experience, and
potential future outcomes will the inherent and
irreplacable features of the village be preserved.
