Walker building permit okayed in principFe
BAYFIELD - After several months of
study and some cntroversy, council here has
given the go ahead in principle to a building
permit application to Dr. Bill Walker.
The permit has been held up for a lengthy
period due to past difficulties between the
village and Dr. Walker.
This permit will be issued if Dr. Walker
agrees to adhere to a list of detailed condi-
tions that have been set out by the Ausable
Bayfield Conservation Authority, the Huron
County Health Unit and by a legal agree-
ment that had been set up previously bet-
ween the village and Dr. Walker.
An appendix to the building permit listing
all the conditions will be presented at the
next council meeting for final study.
Reeve Dave Johnston noted that if Dr.
Walker agrees to abide by all the conditions,
council should approve the building permit.
The building inspector will be asked careful-
ly monitor the work. He has the authority to
put a stop -work order on the project if
necessary.
The reeve noted that if Dr. Walker does
not meet the conditions and subsequent
charges are laid, it could result in thousands
of dollars of court costs for the village. He
also suggested that if the building permit is
not issued, it could still cost the village a
substantial amount of money in lawyer's
fees if Dr. Walker chooses to contest the
council decision.
Vandals destroy tree - another planted
By Helen Owen
BAYFIELD - The tree planted outside the
Church of the English Martyrs was severely
damaged by vandals in recent weeks.
However, a new site was selected at the side
of the church, and on Arbour Day, a fresh
tree in memory of the late Monsignor
Bourdeaus was planted by the Bayfield
Garden Club. It is hoped that this time itwill
be allowed to grow and thrive.
Next weekend, the Ausable Bayfield Con-
servation Authority is sponsoring an in-
teresting project for nature lovers. Between
2 and 4 p.m. they will be hosting an after-
noon at Park Hill with informative tours
identifying plants of various species. This
event will take place on May 4, all are
welcome and refreshments will be
available.

The euchre club held their annual dinner
at the Captain's Cove on April 23. It was an

follows: ladies' high - Margaret Dowson;
ladies' low - Dorothy Cox; ladies' lone hands
- Maude Weston; gent's high - Jim Cox;

The Bayfield Optimists sponsored their second annual bike rodeo at the Bayfield Arena
on April 25. The event was held to promote bike safety and the proper ways of riding a
bike. Here, Mike Telford, one of the testers, watched as Joey Stauttener attempted to
dump a piece of paper into a barrel while riding his bike. (David Emslie photo)
Bike rodeo draws crowd
By Helen Owen
BAYFIELD - There was a good atten-
dance of youngsters up to the age of 13 on
April 25, when the Bayfield Optimists of-
fered a chance to take part in a Rodeo Bike-
A-Thon. It was lots of fun as competitors
tackled the obstacle course which was set
out for them on the completion of which they
were awarded ribbons and trophies.
Another feature of the program was the
resentation of a film on bike safety, a sub-
ject on which young cyclists need to he fully
aware.
Senior Enquiry
Replies are continuing to come in follow-
ing the enquiry regarding Senior Support
Programs. If you have not yet completed
yours, please do so as a total assessment
and plans to meet needs cannot be put in
place without your response.
If by any chance you did not receive a
copy of the letter and would like to do so,
copies are available from the library and
the village office.
Two important facts emerge from the
forms already received, the first that
everyone who has answered so far approves
the idea of a co-operative organization to
support the projects and membership of this
could be open to anyone whether or not they
required the services.
The second fact is that some very helpful
suggestions and offers of assistance have
been forthcoming, and I would like to say
thank you for these.
Lunch At Clan Gregor
An attractive invitation invited Clan
Gregor residents to come and enjoy some
creative cookery on April 24 in their own
common room.
Ten residents were present to enjoy a
meal which had been prepared by Margaret
Chapman and Mildred Merrill. Everything
was provided and the meal enhanced by the
table decorated with a spring time theme of
hand decorated eggs.
The meal, which was comprised of a
delicious homemade Minestrone soup,
followed by a variety of crackers and
cheeses finished with a choice of dessert,
sauteed apples and pears or peach cobbler
with ice cream.
Everything thoroughly enjoyed the food
as well as the social atmosphere, and this
generous gesture was appreciated.
A LETTER FROM DORIS
Town hall is at risk
By Doris Hunter
BAYFIELD - Dante Gabriel Rossetti
wrote, "For certain years, for certain mon-
ths and days, my name is Might -have -been.
I am also called No -more, Too late.
Farewell." Our town hall is at risk. A tem-
porary arrangement has been made to hold
a bottle deposit centre there for a limited
time.
it is very ingenious of the Recreation
Committee to have come up with this idea.
They are far from a do-nothing group,
willing to work for their projects, which are
good for the town. But is this a portrait of
what is to come for our town hall?
