Rec. Bd.
vacancy
Joan Van den Broeck a
member of the Goderich
Recreation and Community
Board since January 1977
submitted her resignation to'"
the board that was accepted
at the regular monthly
meeting last Thursday.
Mrs. Van den Broeck was
forced to resign from the
committee of council after
taking up residence outside
the town of Goderich.
Members of council and their
committees must either
reside or owwn property within
the town.
Members of The Recreation
board decided to ask council
for an immediate reap-
pointment to the board to fill
the vacancy. The ap-
pointment will likely be made
from a list of interested
persons who submitted their
names for possible com-
mittee appointments at the
beginning of the year.
The , board had hoped to
have the v acancy filled
before their next meeting in
October since Mrs.. Van den
Broeck also served on the
pool sub -committee. She also
serves on the Huron Historic
Jail Eoard, the Goderich
Architectural Conservancy
Advisory Committee and the
Goderich' and District
Association for the Mentally
retarded.

County approves finances
for Exeter hospital board
South Huron Hospital in
Exeter has received the
approval of Huron County
Council to proceed with
building plans and to expect
financial support from the
county of up to 25 per cent of
provincial approved costs, to
a maximum of $150,000.
The original hospital which
was a house constructed in
1856 will be removed to make
way fora new emergency and
out-patients facility. The
projected cost for the project
is $598.000 and the hospital
board has expressed con-
fidence the building costs will
not exceed that amount. The
hospital already has a fund of
between $425,000 and $450,000
for the work,.
The addition to South Huron
Hospital will proceed under
Ontario Regulation 61,1977
which means the province
will have no financial share in
the building. ThekSouth Huron
Hospital Board has to make a
specific commitment as well,
that no additional operating
costs will result from the
building program.
The Social Services com-
mittee is expecting to be well
over budget by the end of
1977. Due to continued high
unemployment and increased
rates in most areas of the
social services department,
the financial report for the
period ending July 31, 1977
shows expenditure of
$230,320.85 or about $10,000
over budget.
"It is expected this trend
will continue for the balance
of 1977," said Chairman J. R.
Hunking.
The administrator of
Huronview was authorized to
participate in an Outreach
Program, operated by the
Huron Committee for the
Home Bound to provide day
care for the elderly.
The program will be
financed by the Province of
-Ontario for a two-year period.
The Huronview van will be
used as required, and meals
will be provided at a
reasonable cost. All costs will
be recovered from the
Outreach group.
About 300 in Huron County
could be potential users of
this service, according to
Mrs. Betty Cardno of
Seaforth, a member of the
committee. ._.
Huron County Pioneer
Museum will receive a gift
from the Royal, Canadian
Legion Branch 109, Goderich.
That gift will be the Sherman
Tank 78901 presently located
at the Goderich airport.
The tank and a Lancaster
bomber made up a Legion
display at the Goderich
airport, and at one time were
open to free inspection by
visitors. However, it became
increasingly difficult to
protect the display from
vandals and this year the
bomber was sold and
removed from the area,
The Huron County property
committee will -work with the
Goderich Legion members to
incorporate their suggestions
into the new museum exhibit
and a plaque will be unveiled
next year.
In other business, council
agreed to file no objections to
a proposal to designate the
former Huron County jail and
Council rejected increasedspeed
Huron County Council did
not accept a proposal of the
County of Middlesex to in-
crease the speed limit- on
County Road 5 from Highway
4 to Highway 81 from 80 km -h
(50 m.p.h.) to 90 km -h (56
m.p.h.).
According to the road
committee, who recom-
mended the . proposal be
rejected, the speed limit on
County Road 5 should con-
form with the speed limits on
Highway 4 and Highway 81.
It was pointed out by Reeve
Bill Morley of Usborne
Township that when people
from his part of Huron County
go into London, they often use
Highbury Ave. in Middlesex
County where the speed limit
remains at 60 m.p.h.
According to Morley, this is
advantageous "if you're a
little behind time".
Ed Oddleifson of Bayfield
cautioned Morley that just
because the signs have never
been changed, drivers do not
have the right to travel at that
speed. He said he'd been
caught for speeding in
Middlesex.
Engineer Robert Dempsey
said Middlesex is one county
in this part' of the province
where the speed signs have
not been changed, and he
suspected it was just a
temporary delay. Some
counties, he said, had not

growth and

Huron's metric speed limit
sign conversion program is
completed. About 400 speed
limit signs were changed at a
cost of about $10,000. This
work is subsidized by the
Ministry of Transportation
and Communications.
The county council did not
concur with a resolution from
the Regional Municipality of
Durham requesting ad-
ditional financing from MTC
on a "per sign basis" for
metric conversion.
The road committee told
council the cost of govern-
ment setting up this one time
program would out -weigh the
benefits which _ each
municipality would receive.
