Clinton News-Record, 1987-11-18, Page 3.The afternoon class from the Clinton Co-op Nursery School visited 'the Clinton Fire Hall on November 12 to complete a unit they had been taking on the community and safety. As part of their tour they were allowed to climb on the old fire truck. Looking out from the back of the truck were (left to right) Jon -Michael Falconer, Blair Trewartha, Matthew Walden, Rebecca Woodall, Bethany Stuart, and Melissa Grunert. Volunteer firefighter Steve Campbell con- ducted the tour. (David Emslie photo) Bylaw investigated to save trees . • from page 1 and MacTavish) by planting flowers and trimming the trees. She noted that hydro -never informed her that the trees were to be =cut down. Ontario Hydro has since apologiz- ed saying they will plant new trees. Mrs. Tomlinson continued by saying that -she had seen other trees in the town core marked to be cut down. She stated that her fear was that new people moving to Bayfield would cut down trees as they pleased. She felt that a bylaw was needed to ensure that trees were not randomly cut down by pro- perty owners. Mrs. Tomlinson added if trees are to be cut down, they should be diseased or property owners should be required to ob- .. tain a permit from council. Reeve Dave Johnston assured Mrs. Tomlinson that council would look into establishing a bylaw. He stated, " For every person who wants to destroy trees in Bayfield, there are 10 or 20 people who want to save them." ;Youth programs break new ground . from page 1 Tlie adult education program allows the Pparticipants to balance school studies and `_work. Likewise, the co-op program offered *;to students at CHSS provides the opportuni- ;r,Zy for young people to study in the classroom ;and to gain practical experience In the work force. The co-op program sees students spending :part of their school working in the communi- aty, at various jobs. For some, the co-op pro- ygram helps determine future career plans. 'For others, It makes the restrictions of the traditional school setting more tolerable. Mr. Parr explained, "Students who were at risk, even a bad risk, came through in their co-op placements. The program has encouraged the students. It added respon- sibility to their school day." The program has successfully helped keep students in school and at the same time allowed them the opportunity to break away from the confines of the classroom. "Some kids just can't stand being in class and being ordered around for six hours a .. day," Mr. Parr noted. Other programs like student contracts, the job re-entry program and the in -school suspension system have all been designed to provide educational oportunities for the diverse student population at CHSS. The high school in Clinton is working at a two -fold by providing flexible programming to accommodate special needs groups and at the same time maintaining its traditional role as a learning centre.

However, council didn't like either option so they created a third. CN owns the property were the sewer pipe is, therefore, the town pays rent for the land. Since 1946, the rent has been $5 per year. In a letter received from CN, council was given the option of signing a 10 year agree- ment or a five year agreement which would have a price tag of $30 per year. Council first thought the five year agree- ment may be suitable, but at the suggestion of Councillor Don Eastman, decided to add a third option. This option was to send a che- que for $100 and forget any future correspondence. "It costs more to send the letters," council said. Council unanimously passed Councillor Eastman's suggestion. Looking At New Truck The Clinton Public Works was given per- mission to replace their 1974 dump truck. "The present truck needs between $2,000 and $2,500 repairs to get it back on the road and there's no guarantee it will stay on the road," said Councillor Ross Carter. "There's no body or box work in that estimate," added Superintendent of Public Works. Harold Gihhinac Councillor Case Buffinga said he had two questions concerning the issue. "The first is, do we have enough money in the budget and the second is can't we start cycling these things so they're not sprung on us in November all the time? "I really question the fact that we should have known about this last year." Mr. Gibbings said the problem was reported at the truck's last eight month in- spection. (The trucks must be inspected every eight months.) As for Councillor Buffinga's question regarding enough funds in the budget, he was told there was. The truck Mr. Gibbings is considering purchasing is a 1979 International single ax- le dump truck valued at $7,000 plus tax. The present truck will be advertised as for sale. Legal Matter Council passed the motion to hire lawyer Mike Mitchell of Stratford to deal with all business arising with Baymath Properties. Mr. Mitchell has assisted council in the past.
