were Dorothy Bourdeau, Gayle Stennett, Jo -Anne Collins, Yvonne
Porter and Paula Tafeit. Donations received from the campaign go
towards diabetes research and education.

"She (Marty Brent) gave us every
assurance that the county museum project
would be top priority and that our applica-
tion would not have to be re -submitted but
only re -worked," said Mr. Johnston in ex-
plaining the situation to council.
Under the new formula, the first phase
would include all new construction while
the second phase would include renova-
tions to the old museum building and the
finishing touches to the total project, such
as landscaping, etc.
Mr. Johnston also said that after the new
funding was formula was worked out, the
proposal was put before the two local
MPP's in this area (Jack Riddell and Mur-
ray Elston) to seek their support.
"Both Mr. Riddell and Mr. Elston sup -

port fully the Huron County Museum and
said they would do anything possible to
assist us with funding from the province,"
said Mr. Johnston, the reeve of Bayfield.
The Museum Committee also travelled
to Ottawa to find out if the funding change
would put federal funding in' doubt for the
project. MrwJohnston said the.director,of
the federal CIP said the revised county
funding application still meets the re-
quirements for the programa
"MP Murray Cardiff is also in full sup-
port of the project and has also said he will
do everything possible at the federal level.
"We haven't jeopardized the project
and, from all signals, all the federal and
provincial ministries are fully in favor of
the project," Mr. Johnston concluded..
Museum Project Director Claus Breede
said county officials were worried the CIP
would view the project as two distinct pro-
jects which would sizeably reduced the
county's grant prospects.
He said under the CIP program, it will
fund up to one-third of any major capital
"They'll deal with the library in a dif-
ferent way and that's good," he said.
Elsa Haydon, a columnist with the
Goderich Signal -Star and one of the people
who spoke against the change of status for
the library board at the meeting, said the
decision by the standing to approve the
dissolution of the board was "obviously
political". The standing committee vote on
the matter was tied with the four Liberals
members voting in favor while the two
Conservative and two NDP members
voting against it, while the chairman, also
a Liberal, voting in favor.
She said she opposed the Library board
change as county council's argument for
"more control" of the library system was
invalid, as sufficient controls are already
in place with four of the seven board
members appointed by county council.
Janis Bisback of Hensall, a member -at -
large on the Library Board, also gave a
presentation at the' standing committee
hearings in opposition to dissolving the
board.
While she is against the decision to
change the hoard to a committee, she is
willing to work within the framework of
the law. She also she was disappointed that
the standing committees did not have a
chance to summarize why they voted
either for or against the change tot he
board.

project. If the second phase of the museum
project was viewed as a separate project,
the county would have been eligible for on-
ly one-third of their $1 million grant
request.
"We would have been cutting our own
throats," said Mr. Breede,
However, Mr. Breede said the CiiP of-
ficials still see the museum project as a
$3.5 million venture. But, because of their
small $8 million yearly budget which is
spent across Canada, the county may not
receive a CIP grant until 1988.
Mr. Breede says he expects to have an
answer regarding the provincial funding
for the project within the next four to six
weeks. If a guaranteed commitment is
made by the province, tenders will be call-
ed to begin construction.
As for the federal government's grant
refusal for the project this year, Mr.
Breede said the county will not need to pro-
ceed with the second phase renovations un-
til' 1989. He, expects the first phase of the
project to be completed by that time.
