Council not convinced they
should pay more
STANLEY TWP. - Reeve Clarence Rau
and Councillor Jack Coleman reported back
to the second regular October §,ession of
council here after attending a Meeting to
discuss the controversial matter of
establishing an equitable cost-sharing for-
mula for ice time at the Zurich Arena.
The Stanley representatives objected to
some of the figures supplied by Zurich
which were used to arrive at a gross cost,
especially the $18,700 representing 75 per
cent of the arena manager's salary, and
$9,000 for 90 per cent of the assistant's
wages. Councillor Coleman said later he did
not understand how these figures were
calculated, as ice was provihed for a max-
imum of five months each year.
Councillor Coleman said Stanley coun-
cillors have heard nehing to convince them
to change their present policy of paying
$1,500 annual grants to each of the four
arenas (Zurich, Bayfield, Clinton and Hen-
sall) which amounts to about $60 for each of
the young Stanley residents taking part in
minor hockey and figure skating. The
township also pays $1,000 each year towards
the operational cost of the Vanastra pool.
cnimeillo.r Coleman noted that Ctn nlev
4H'ers p
for arena use
has no need for any facility other than an ice
surface outside its boundaries, as the
township has its 'own community centre,
ball diamonds and lakeside park.
Another meeting is scheduled in the near
f uture.
In other business, bylaws were passed up-
dating the constitution of the Brucefield fire
department and the operation of the joint
fire area board.
Drainage Petitions
A drainage petition from Richard Erb,
part lot 14, concession L.R.W. and Glen
Smith, lots 2 and 3, plan 110. Rau was ap-
pointed to act as commissioner on the drain,
and Huron Middlesex Engineering Ltd. will
be asked to prepare a report on the draM.
A tile drainage loan of $20,000 and an ap-
plication for a loan of $6,700 for shoreline
property assistance were approved.
Final 1986 taxes amounting to $45.98 were
written off.
Acting on information received from
Doug Banks representing a group of
Houston Heights property owners, council
approved the Houston Heights Association
plan to construct steel groynes.
