Accompanied by the Com- modore of the Goderich Sailing Club, Jack Elder and last )ear's Commodore, George Robertson, Mr. Carroll outlined three steps which could be taken to improve the harbour. A detailed brief was given to the councillors describing The proposed renovations. The Sailing Club suggested that the repairs be done in a three-step plan as. it would "provide a minimum of disruption, at the harbour during the summer Beason and provide a progression of improvements economically". Mr. barroll pointed out through the use of charts that die original dock lies under-" rater -due to the high lake level. He also mentioned that many of the slip -docks were worn and that perhaps a new type, not metal, may be in- stalled to prevent them wearing out.
