MARL{ !AV/4011S Col A,aird of .th atlonil will a04i odez'L b 'Township coUUCii to acgePt a if yv ,I.O aj eglciaent on mutuali responsibilities Organ t . e proposed township community gentire lin Rplmesville. The =beard's . management committee presented an agreement to the Monday session`! that .was hammered out with the township listing conditions and responsibilities and •generale problems of mutual concern over the proposed community centre. However, several of the seven points listed in the ,agreement and presented by trustee, Bert Morin, came under close scrutiny from board members and sections of the agreement were suhspgilently-re_wOrded _ The original agreement called .,for both parties to take dual responsibility for the maintenance of the septic tank and tile bed system located south of Holmesville School. The new community centre will be served by the--existing--school water s-ystem-...and .._•the-.___. township agreed to share the maintenance costs of the system. At the insistence of trustee Dave Gower and others the board agreed to reword those points of the agreement to read that the township and the Board will take responsibility for main- tenance and or replacement of the septic tank, tile and water system. The agreement also stipulates that the "community centre multi-purpose room would be available to the school for at least three hours per day to conduct physical education program s. Gower expressed concern that under a one- year agreement the township could, in future, either infringe upon the three-hour minimum or Seniors... • from page 1 a credit of $100 to all persons 65 years of ageor more who receives the monthly guaranteed income supplement provided under the Old Age ri Act. To be eligible, thapplicant Security g ........ would have to occupy the property on which the municipal taxes have been imposed and would have to have been continuously assesed as the owner of residential real property in Goderich for not' less than five years imrleidately preceding March 31,1980. The credit, the motion stated, would be an outright grant made by the town, and would not involved repayment of any kind. Councillor Haydon, who spoke briefly to the motion, said that since the town was making use of Section 86 which has resulted in some older homes paying higher taxes, she felt the elderly'. residents' tax assistance program was needed. Though Councillor Haydon gave no estimate on Monday evening of the number. of persons in Goderich who would qualify for this type of assistance, she did say she thought it would be a small number. "The key is that it would only be for persons -recei-Ving-.the-guaranteed-income supplement 't„'.-__ Haydon told council. "These are the people.who are most. seriously in need of this kind of assistance.” "It sounds good on paper," offered Councillor Brian Knights of council's finance committee, "but I want to know how it will affect the rest of the taxpayers in Goderich." It was pointed out that if 100 taxpayers qualified for the special property tax assistance, 'it • would cost the remainder of Goderich ratepayers $10,000. Interestingly enough, the motion was presented just minutes before the • finance committee presented its budget estimates for 1980, showing the need for severecuts and some belt tightening on the part of council's com- mittees and boards. Councillor Jim Searls said it was "basically a good motion" -but advised it should have more study. •: Five escape fire ' Five . people escaped their burning home early Friday morning 'when it was completely destroyed by fire. Pat O'Neil- and Va7erte Little and their children, Lawrence (Rocky), Gecil ., and Juanita Little fled the burning ' home about. 6 a.m. when Mr. O'Neil was awakened by the noise of the fire: It is believed the fire started in the kitchen where a . wood stove was located. The house is located on highway 21, south of Kintail in Ashfield Township. The family ?event across the' toad to the home of Michael Dalton where they called firemen. Lucknow District Firemen • answered the call at 6:15 a.m. and the two storey frame house was completely engulfed wherli they arrived on the scene. Firemen sprayed water on a nearby barn to prevent sparks setting it . on fire. The family is staying in a house on concession 7 of Ashfield Township, 'of- fered to them by Cliff Livingston, Ashfield. An appeal for Cllptlling has brought an over- wheiiTiing response from the community ' and donations of furniture as well as clothing have been made. deletOralt914011,er, He. said it was the board% duty.. to tni,t1xe 'tbe children had access to the centre in consideration of the fact that the board deeded thenecessary land to the town- sbip.to accomodate tie.community centre. The final point of the document Galled for an ' annual revision of the agreement but board members voted narrowly in favor of including 'the words 'cost sharing';in front of the the word agreement. Under the terms of the agreement the boaird ' will • pick up added Custodial costs resulting from mutually arranged usageand they will transfer chairs and equipment to the centre for mutual use. the cost of wahsroom supplies will also be shared by both parties using a ratio of estimated usage. - - - liter resigns_ 'as superintendent Huron County Board of Education superin- ... -tendent; -r'rn Coulter, --su-rprisingTy- announced-- -.- his retirement to the board in a committee -of - the -whole session, Monday.

Councillor John Doherty felt the time was short, but said that budgets that didn't get reworked for Monday's council meeting would have to be dealt with by the whole of council. Reeve Palmer and Clerk Larry McCabe said time was getting short and that the budget preparation, should be treated as a priority item. Councillor Stan Profit summed it up.
