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.
