GODERICH SIGNAL-SyAR, THURSDAY, ,O "TOHL►Ri 21, iA'?i---PAGGI, $ Sr. citizens make jail proposal , When the closing date of Oc- tober 19, for the filing of proposals regarding the future use of the former Huron County Jail, arrived two reports were on the desk of Town Clerk -Administrator Harold Walls. One is from the Architectural Conservancy of Ontario (Huron County Branch), which is discussed in an account of the Conser- vancy's last meeting elsewhere in this week's publication, and one from a group" of local Senior Citizens. The two proposals carry ,the same theme, calling for the oc- tagonal jail to be converted to a variety of uses and suggest this be accomplished with the use • of government funding provided through grant programs.' The Senior Citizens recom- mend strongly the use of federal New Horizons program grants which will provide fun- ding for the organization of projects set up by those over 65 years of age. According to the Senior Citizens', proposal, the jail could be used for their activities, recreation programs and meetings. "It is proposed to the Council of the Town of Goderich that the premises known - as the Huron County Jail be used as a New Horizons project," the proposal noted. "The • objectives of this proposal," the Senior ,.Citizens submission said, "Would be that a New Horizons Museum be set up depicting the evolution of the correctional system .of -North America." "To operate a concession on the premises for profit; to lease some of the area for theatre and band concerts; to lease the area to small groups for business meetings; to use The premises for educational. meetings of senior citizens; to use the premises for organized recreational activities for Senior citizens," the proposal said. "To use the premises for all senior citizen organized ac- tivities during 12 months of the year; to_ use the premises to cater to meetings; to benefit the commercial and professional People as well as all citizens of the County of HuiFtr „i ttttac- ting tourists from all over North America and to operate the museum at a profit. after the set, up- time period," the proposal continued. "It is oU-r rintention," the brief summarized, "that the funding to establish this proposal as a profitable venture - will be requested from the New Horizons Program." The Senior Citizens proposal ran one page in length while the more detailed Architectural Conservancy brief covered 15 pages, including an insert on grants recently handed out to museum and historical site projects. • GODERICH & OWEN SOUND Floor Coverings—, -Paints .- Wolipopors Draperies - 16th Coutory Ftrroltnrn R•fi ishor Get Your Free Copy of The During the past week, the Goderich Police Department handled ,,-134 occurrences, • of which 29 involved criminal matters.

There were un- necessary noise charges issued following incidents on the 'quare. The burning.of leaves is now becoming more common within certain areas of town, with Elgin Street being very noticeable, says the Police, Chief Pat King. This often creates a traffic hazard when smoke clouds ' drift across the roadway, " says the Chief. It also causes an- noyance to other citizens, *.specially those with health proh1erns." Under Ontario's anti- pollution laws, infractions are normally handled by the in-_ ,pecturs employed by • the province, but police can act on . (mplaints received. • "Persons in the habit of bur- ning leaves are reminded of these facts," says the Chief. "There is just as much effort required to rake them and place them in plastic bags, rather than burn them." "This way, traffic ,conditions in' town are not made more hazardous • by the lessening of _visibility," adds the Cheif. "The neighbours are happier and persons do not break ache law." "Let's try to keep our air• fresh, and not smelling like one great big bonfire," concluded the Chief.
