Towncouncil to set aside one night for delegations A surfeit of delegations at Mon- day's town council meeting decided council members to establish one separate night for all delegations from now on. The meetings would be held on the third Monday of every month, thus leaving the regular meetings of council for committee reports and regular business. The decision was spurred by the presence of four separate delegations that took almost two hours off the time for council business. Although the time for presentation was limited at 15 minutes per delegation, all but one of the groups at Monday's meeting were far extended over the limit. Council members said they thought the surplus of in- formation from the delegations and the burden of regular busi- ness was too much for one even- ing and prevented thein from giving the necessary considera- tion to the proposals. One of the delegations was that of Jim Currie, supported by Mrs. Ene McGregor, with regard to establishing a municipal archive of Wingham history and memor- abilia.
