Page 10—CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1986 ayfiQld Bagle Marina to undergo expansion The planning committee will recommend council grant a extension to a draft subdivi- sion proposal for Rae Fraser for one year. The draft subdivision proposal, originally prepared in 1978, would allow Mr. Fraser to proceed with a subdivision on his property on Deviation Road, north of the village. The grant extension has been given every year since 1978, but there has yet to be any con- struction on the lots. The committee also recommended a meeting be set up with Mr. Fraser so he can outline his plans for the property and if he intends to pursue subdivision construction in 1987. By Man Rivett BAYFIELD - Boaters in need of dockage space for the upcoming season received some good news as council here gave ap- proval to proceed with a modest expansion to the village -owned harbor during the meeting on February 3. Harbor committee chairman Jim Quick had requested the expansion at the January 20 meeting, stating the marina could easily hold three more docks or six berths. He said the village could also use the revenue created by the expansion. At the February 3 meeting, Mr. Quick. made a formal presentation to council on the matter. After investigation, he said the village could install three docks to the east of the last dock where one boat was previously allowed to dock sideways. This would create room for three new customers. The expansion would still maintain a space of over 25 feet for casual fishermen to tie up west of the bridge. He went on to say the expansion would not infringe on the required 75 feet channel width at the river set down by the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries. The expansion would not involve additional costs • to the village as all equipment and piles are cur- rently on hand. Long Hill Road Council received a letter frpm the Ausable Bayfield Conservation Authority (ABCA ) stating it has ranked the, Long Hill Road re - stabilization project third out of seven priority capital works projects for 1986. At t e ABCA's executive meeting in Janua, the authority agreed to take on the Long ill Road as a project in 1986. The pro- ject will receive consideration in the ABCA's upcoming budget:.. Reeve Dave Johnston also instructed Road Superintendent Rick Penhale to begin monitoring the slippage of the road after the village's engineering firm of Golder and Associates requested monitoring be resum- ed. Council Briefs Council received two grant requests from the Blyth Festival and the Tuckersmith Day Care Centre. They will be referred to the finance committee for consideration. A letter was received by council from the Bayfield Garden Club outlining their plans for flower planting in the village for this year.

If the grant is approved, the village would receive a 50 per cent subsidy of $122,500 to be used for upgrading of such items as street lights and sewers.

Take' part' in this piece of Bayfield's history. Library Board The Huron County Executive Committee has recommended that the Library Board should be dissolved, effective. January , 1987. The reason given is because of 'ac- countability', and the proposal is that the board would then become a committee of council. This step may well be sound policy on the part of Huron County Council, but the fact remains thait the library users have not been given any indication as to how this new ar- rangement will affect the facilities which they -enjoy. The public library is a focal point in the community, not only as a source of reading material, visual aids, etc., but it also pro- vides for the initiation of young children into the wonderful world of books, a source of in- formation for students and a place where, from time to time, young and old can enjoy specially book orientated programs. ' It is sincerely hoped that the proposed alteration would not in any way curtail these facilities, and for the consumer it would be reassuring if Huron County Council would define ways in which they feel the change in the administration would not only solve their problem of 'frustration', but also con- tinue and maybe enhance library services.
