Appointment of the com- mittee came in the wake of provincial legislation in. March-, calling for establish- ment of such groups in municipalities across Ontario. Among its programs the committee .had intended to look into the designation of five years awa g At least five years o planning and study mould be necessary,- to recrimp the Goderich harbor and improve its commercial viability according to Huron County Development Officer Spence ' Cummings. Mr. Comm ings was • speaking in an interview with the Signal -Star following a remark .at Goderich Town Council last Thursday regarding. the possible developthent of facilities at the local harbor to handle containerized cargo.

Some members 'demon- strated how to make nuts and ,bolts and cheerio bran squares, Cathy Foran discussed the different types of cereal grains and their uses. The fourth meeting of the "Grain Grinders" was held at Mrs. June Robinson's at 900 a.rtr on Saturday October 2. The meeting Was opened • with the pledge. The method of making apple coffee cake land bran muffins was demonstrated by sornect the members. Miss Foran discussed flour - the differentAinds and the uses of each. Harbor would be more commercially viable if the federal government could be persuaded to develop con- tainer handling facilities. ' "At the moment," Mr. Cummings noted, "all you have 'to do ,is 'chive along • Highway 8 to see the number ,of containers loaded on trucks headed east. These shipments could well be loaded aboard ships right here at Goderich." Most of the containers to which Mr. Cummings referred are shipments of white beans headed for ports at Montreal and New York for onward shipment to England and Europe. The containers are filled and shipped overland by truck or rail to the salt water ports. "The railways will say that because of weather, the long history of strikes at ports, and "go•on it's better .to ship the containers overland," Mr. Czummings noted. "But we don't know that for sure. Obvidusly they don't want to loSe the business." • The Development Officer also pointed out that a wide variety of other products,, such as steel; come into Goderich and questioned Whether or not this might be shipped by water at lower,„ costs if there were facilities . at the local harbor to handle off-loading. • He also suggyted that perhaps there were industrial_ concerns as far away as Kitchener -Waterloo who might use Goderich harbor at a considerablesaving if the. facilities were available. • To gather the information necessary to answer all these questions .would be a long, - involved and expensive job. A • market study 'would have to be conducted, a • complete survey of available property at the harbor and a study of the engineering aspects, "Five years -Lot planning and study • would be necessary," Mr. •CUrnmings suggested. Only after that would officials be in aposition to decide if •container facilities were feasible" for 'Goderich Harbor. Studies of such a magnitude would be expensive and just where the funds might come from remains as the initial concern. 11111111111111111111111111.11W Government Assisted Homes 4, Under e A. • . .

Mbnicipalities with such facilities support in principle the need for a more Uniforni planning and financing of the national port system, but feel that harbors and harbor lands are. of a laCal as well as a national .interest. • The brief 'from WMO noted that harbor facilities are often used by citizens of the community for recreational activities. Besides that, local municipalities often are required to provide services and infra -structure to support 'Oft facilities, and in some cases (Toronto was cited as - the . example) have waived surplus funds and conveyed land and asSets to local harbor commissions. The resolution, therefore, is that the land area of the port facility should be adjusted in • co-operation with.. the province ' and local municipality to ensure that both the national and the local interests are maintained. This would apply especially to those lands not required for port facilities and . not federally owned. - • The resolution states that the development of these lands should ..be •subject to A Terry Crowley GODERICH, London 524-9075 Lire :representing • normal mynicipal centrol, as provided for in The Planning Act of Ontario. The resolution further asks that the membership of the• proposed Local Port Com- missions, be either five or Seven as determined by local negotiations, and that the majority of the appointed be from the municipal level of government, municipal elected representatives not to be exempted. The chairman -1 - of the Local Port Commission would be elected by the members of the commission. The surplus funds and the conveyed, excess lands or the value of the conveyed lands should be returned to the local municipality, where applicable, the , resolution points out. Also requested is a definition of local respon- Sibility for day-to-day management, 'especially os it pertains to personnel, labor,. relations and security.

"That was , entirely a federal affair," • claimed Councillor • Peters, who recalled criticism of council for not Utilizing the sand removed from the mouth of the harbor by the dredging equipment, on the beaches.
