Turnberry Twp.
Council commends
school board trustee
Art Clark, a local trustee
on the Huron County Board
of Education, got a pat on the
back from Turnberry council
for being instrumental in
keeping the school board
budget increase down this
year,
Deputy Reeve Doug
Fortune said ° at last
Tuesday's meeting that
council has been ' critical of
heady school board budget
increases in the past. But
this year the board has kept
the increase to around the
five per cent mark and "We
• (council) want to commend
you (the school board)," he
said.
--When • -k-el 'by— Reese-.
Brian McBurney how the
board kept the increase in
/dine, Mr. Clark replied board
members set out with the
intention to keep .it low and
were able to do so .through
strict budgeting.
I Teachers' salaries are
restricted to an increase of
only five per cent for the
majority of 1984 and since
salaries make 'it twotthirds
of the board's budget, he
said, it helped keep the in-
crease within reason.
There may be a larger
budget increase next year,
since, the board must expand
programs for gifted children
andFrench due to new
government education
regulations.
Declining enrolment
continues to plague county
schools, he added, and
estimated the system has
lost over 1,300 students since
1979. There also are 200
fewer pupils in county
schools this year than in
1983.
The Standing Senate
Committee on Agriculture
Fisheries and Forestry
Chairman: The Hon. Herbert O. Sparrow
When Mr. McBurney
asked if there is any chance
Turnberry Central School
might be closed due to
declining enrolment, Mr.
Clark said he never has
heard anything about it
closing, although three
county schools are under
review at the moment.
In other business, Mr.
Clark put on another hat,
that of engineer from
Maitland Engineering
Services in Wingham. He
supervised the opening and
inspection of tenders for the
Bolt Municipal Drain during
a closed session of council.
The matter was discussed
in -camera since the -decision
of a drainage tribunal into
the drainage works . would
not be known until last
Thursday. Council ten-
tatively awarded the con-
tract to Hanna, and Hamilton
Construction ki of Listowel
pending the decision of the
tribunal.
Hans Kuyvenhoven was
nominated to another two-
year term on the Wingham
and District Hospital Board
by council.
Councillor Joan Wright
declared a conflict of in-
terest on the discussion and
subsequent vote on the
building permits, since her
husband Raymond applied
for a permit.
Council set a rate of $6.00
per rod for compensation to
landowners whose fences are

Mr. Stirling also em-
phasized the advantage of an,
