Three more names have to be added to the agreement before it can be signed. Ken Stapleton, Alex Lubbers and Barry Gardner will be added to the list of the fol- lowing names: Thomas Gilbert Gardner, Edward Marsh, Joseph Schneider, Harold Grant and El- gin Adams. The agreement, if signed would be binding on future homeowners or until a new agreement is made. Ross Nicholson, township drain commissioner was hired by coun- cil to count dogs and tag them at $1.50 a dog plus mileage. He was authorized by council to collect $5 for males and $10 for each addi- tional male; $10 for females and $15 for each additional female and spayed females will be col- lected for as male dogs. He will collect $25 for a kennel of dogs which was defined as three or more animals. Dogs six months and under will not be counted. Council felt the charges would coyer damage caused by dogs running in packs in the township. Recently they paid $100 for a sheep and $60 for 12 turkeys killed by dogs. Council passed Bylaw 9 to pro- hibit throwing debris on township or private property. A fine of not less than $50 and not more than $500 will be levied against anyone found guilty of littering. It took effect July 7. • Council approved a recreation agreement between Howick Township and Turnberry, to pay through grant, $150,000 towards the new community centre in Howick. The money goes toward capital costs and stipulates joint use of the centre. Further maintenance costs will be shared equally by four town- ships as arranged in 1950 under an agreement made when the ori- ginal building was built. Howick, Turnberry, Carrick and Culross are the four involved. Twenty- five per cent from each is the share for maintenance. Councillor Doug Fortune point- ed out that Turnberry needs a recreation committee of its own to receive grants for Turnberry Park maintenance. Bylaw 12 was passed forming a recreation committee including two councillors, Brian McBurney and Doug Fortune ,and three tpwnship residents, Barry lyl,d- vey, Orville Hastings and Hugh Campbell. It came to the attention of council that Turnberry Estates owes money for mobile homes. A $15 fee is required when each borne is moved in and a $10 monthly charge until they are as- sessed. All the homes are assess- ed now but no fees have been paid. E. G. May of Turnberry Es- tates is being asked to prepare a - list of the homes and when they moved in before the next regular meeting, Aug. 2. He is asked to attend the meeting to discuss overdue fees. Council amended a motion which states that household items such as appliances could not be dumped in the township dump. It now reads that these items may be dumped there. Council will be sending letters to people who have requested tile dram loans, More money is being requested by council and until an answer is received, no loans will be issued. Funds available at present are $6,000 with grants cif $64,650 re- quested. This leaves a shortage of $58,650. ,..„0=140* DIZZY FUN—A merry-go-round can make the rider dizzy, but these three stopped long enough to get their picture taken.

Council passed a motion at its July 5 meeting to request another ex- planation from Mr. Kerr by the Aug. 1 meeting before payment will be made for the job. Councillor Ben Malda and De- puty Reeve Harold Elliott op- posed the motion. Mr. Malda said the. gravel was good.

(Screening determines the size of gravel.) .Reeve Don Eadie said he went to see Mr: Kerr who said if he had used a smaller screen it would have clogged. "We signed a formal agree- ment," Councillor Doug Fortune said, "and' he didn't live up to his end : of the contract, and we shouldn't accept that. I don't care if the gravel was good or bad, the fact is he didn't live up to his end. We have to be fair to people who tender. If we don't live up to the accepted tender, it isn't fair 'to others." Mr. Fortune suggested that council withhold payment until the next meeting and another let- ter is sent. Mr. Eadie pointed out that in the contract it is agreed that if the contractor fails to meet specifications council will with- hold the tender cheque.
