The effect that the new

brought up at the meeting
between ` Chairman Wright
and Transport Canada
Officials as well because of
Art Bourdeau's recent
request to have his land
rezoned commercial on the
secondary plan.

• If the non -precision use for
the runway is adopted as
recommended by the airport
committee, commercial
building . height problems
would. be eliminated for
Bourdeau. The rezoning of his
property is of no interest to
Transport Canada. They are
only concerned with the
height restrictions in relation
to the new runway.
A recommendation was
made by Chairman. Wright
that with the runway to be
considered non -precision and
the height restrictions not
affecting Bourdeau's present
buildings that serious con-
sideration be given to the
rezoning of his property to
commercia-I from
agricultural.
In regards to this recom-
mendation from Wright, a
motion was passed by the
I. rank Walkom admires his Silver Jubilee Medal he received recently from the Canadian
government honoring over two decades of service to the public. Walkom spent 27 years
teaching industrial arts at GDCFand 22 of those years he spent on town council He served
as councillor, deputy -reeve. reeve and mayor of Goderich during his tenure and has since
retired from both teaching and politics.(staff photo)
;import committee to concur
w ith Colborne Township's
decision to defer action
regarding the rezoning of
Bourdeau's property. This
motion was based on the fact
that tin' airport committee is
not tiere e•xuctly where the
nett' runway will he located
until the t rtgineering sttidy is
complete. Therefore, it is not

development of the airport.
Airport committee
members agreed that they -
couldn't make any firm
commitments at this time
concerning the airport. Their
decisions will hinge on the
engineering study presently
being prepared by Transport
Canada.
