The salt trucks must get to the mine at any and all hours when there is a break in the weather. You may say, "Oh, that's Victoria Street." But shutting down the truck route will mean all of it, not just Elgin Avenue and Wellington Street. The people on Victoria Street, Bayfield Road, and Huron Road also live in residential areas, and wouldn't expect any different treatment. The grocery transports arrive before 5 a.in. and the stock clerks go to work then so that you may buy grocei4ies at 9 a.m. ' In addition, the elevators are big business, paying large taxes into our town treasury. During the har- vest season, the farmers must work according to the whims of Mother Nature. If the crop is ready for harvest and the weather is right, farmers work day and night. With the modern harvesting methods, they load directly on trucks, and these end up at our elevators. Do you wish the farmer to pay added penalty to allow the full trucks to sit in his field because they can't arrive in Goderich before 7 a.m., or to sit here at the dock all night because they can't get out of town limits after 11 p.m.? In checking with the assessment office, value of property on these streets has not declined. Because we do live in a farming community, and that won't change, and in the interest of industry and finance, I cannot support this petition. Board plans implernentation... • from page 1 ' Superintendent Kenwell said once the 25 forms are completed, a better understanding of what will be required to implement Bill 82 in Huron County would be possible. When asked about special education at secondary school levels, Mr. Kenwell said not as much has been done as at the elementary level. He cited lack of money and a preference for starting at the elemen- tary level as two reasons. It was noted that superintendents of business would be having a meeting with Ministry officials regarding details of funding. In other business, the board supported Ontario Public Schoolrustees' Association (OPSTA) in its bid to stop the Ontario Energy Board from making Union Gas stop its group billing arrangement. The board currently has this arrangement with Union Gas and if stopped could cost the board an additional $6,000; The board accented the tender of Smith -Peat Roofing and Sheet Metal of $38,000 for work on South Huron District High School. It was the lowest tender; The board will request the Ministry of Tran- sportation and Communications lo erect school bus loading signs at the entrance of Huron Haven Park ati`,tt2, Highway 21. Two novels Avalanche by Arthur Roth and Desert Chase by Kathryn Storey Sant were approved for use in elementary schools and The Strange One by Fred Bodsworth for use in secondary schools. The board also endorsed a drug abuse prevention program with assistance from local police forces in elementary schools. Council can wait for money... • from page 1 the$3,000 payment. "They questioned our business tactics but we had informed them," he said. "If they pay us there will be no animosity." A user fee charge, payable before race nights, would be unfairly singling out a group, councillor Elsa Haydon said. "We haven't asked groups to pay in advance before and it's too harsh," she said. A motion requesting payment, passed by council September 21; does not mean the Association is obligated to pay the money Profit argued. "They did not sign an agreement to repay the money and we can pass all the motions we want but they must agree to it," he said. "Morally they owe us. But we should give them the opportunity to pay the money back." The finance committee's recommendation was to bled. Nursing home resident dies MRS.
