Bell is proposing raising both residential and business service rates to keep the local exchange telephone service for all municipalities eqaul. "Telephone exchanges are classified, for rating purposes, into various rate groups ac- cording to the total telephone -number count in use in the local calling area exchange," noted Bell Canada in a letter to Clinton Council. Residence services for an individual line r CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 24, 1986—Page 3 Mews and featars proposes rate increase will rise 30 cents, from $7.10 to $7.40. A two- party residential service will go up 10 cents, from $4.15 to $4.25. The business service for individual lines will rise $3, from $19 to $22. The two-party business line will remain at $14.35. Clinton Council members voted unanimously to send a letter to Bell Canada stating they object to the large increase to the business service. Grants Received At their September 15 meeting, council was informed that applications for grants totalling $17,731 were approved. A grant for $8;804 from the Ministry of Tourism and Recreation was applied for to carry out community centre improvements. "That was for the arena roof and various improvements to the community centre," said acting -clerk treasurer. "It's (the grant) something that wasn't included in the budget because we didn't want to count on it." A grant for $1,550 was also approved for the Clinton Arts Committee through the Touring Arts Fund and the $7,377 grant for ACT (Activity Centres Today) was also approved. *Plans will go ahead at Huronview By Alan Rivett Huron County Council will go ahead with plans for expansion and renovation to Huronview over the next five years at a cost of $3.4 million. The proposed renovations for the home for the aged near Clinton were presented and passed at the council meeting on September 4 with the first phase of the pro- ject starting in 1987 at a cost of $530,785. In- cluded in the first year are renovations to one residential area of the home as well as dining facilities in two other areas and laundry facilities. In 1988, when the bulk of the work will be done, renovations will be carried out in the kitchen areas as well as changes to the centre wing on the second floor, ad- ministration offices and another residen- tial area at the home. A $1.1 price tag was set for the second phase of the project. Subsequent phases of the project, set for 1989 through 1991, will feature renovations to three more residential areas and moder- nization of the dietary facilities at the home. The project report went on to say private bathroom facilities in three of the residen- tial areas would not be included in the renovations. However, these renovations would be considered in the future. The $3.3 million for the project will be split between the province and the county with the provincial Community and Social Services and Huron County contributing $1.68 million each. According to Clarence Rau, vice- chairman of the Huronview Committee, grant money for the renovations could be available as early as the end of this year. Referring to a meeting with Community and Social Services Minister John Sweeney on July 30, Mr. Rau said the minister held out hope that if present pro- jects funded by the ministry's Capital Grant's program come in under budget, Huron County would be in line for the available money. Last September, the previous council High school religion had passed a motion to approve the renovations to the county -run home, sub- ject to the approval of the incoming coun- cil. However, in June, council received notice that the county's grant application for funding from the ministry for Huron - view had been declined. The county, ex- pecting the project to go ahead in 1986, placed $230,000 in the 1986 budget. Mr. Rau said the minister claimed the reason for the application denial was, because it was near the end of the year, the remaining money of the $75 million Capital Grants Program had to be allocated. Due to the conditions placed upon the county's grant application, it was not considered. However, Mr. Rau said the minister assured him and other members of county council, county administration and government officials who attended the meeting that a second three-year Capital Grants Program may be in the works in 1988. At that time, the Huronview project would be at the top of the priority list. courses will be held The high school religion courses will be in Goderich. held again this year by the Huron -Perth These religion courses are worth one full County Roman Catholic Separate School credit, if successfully passed by the pupil.

Considerable time was spent at the meeting while trustees learned all about speech and language, speech pathologists and speech correctionists and the board's responsibility in the area of speech and language. Speech pathology (treatment) is often the responsibility of the Ministry of Health and administered by speech therapists or pathologists while speech correction and remediation is carried out by speech and language teachers and is the responsibility of the school board. The above are suggested divisions to serve as a general guideline for local use by the Ministry of Education,-` the Ministry of Health and the Ministry of Community and Social Services to school boards to create sharing arrangements for the provision of speech and -language programs for school - aged children.
